One thing I just thought: maybe they are aiming the retro manga vibe to differentiate/to cause visual impact?
They phrase they used on the pic is savage 😆
“It seems Kamui is coming back to this Tokyo”
They are so teasing us
Pure Evil 😆
It has been a while sismce we saw “CLAMP” and “Newtype” in the same sentence 😅
I wonder if the magazine was able to adapt to the newer generations and how they are doing sales wise 🤔
Oh wow 🤩
Is the first I see those illustrations and they look gorgeous ❣️
Thank you for sharing it!
I always absolutely LOVE your analysis and comparisons❣️
Thank you for posting it
Well this one was quite a surprise!!! Wasn’t it?
Looking forward to the next one already 🤭
I wouldn’t count on the YouTube videos either because it doesn’t sound like they have a plan or a specific content they want to share.
This is such a great idea. It would feel so natural for him to appear!!!
Here’s hoping your vision is right 🤞
-They might upload videos of them playing Animal Crossing on Youtube.
-They might upload other videos to youtube
-They might do other podcasts (not for the Kanbukai series)
So in the following episodes Ohkawa wants to change it to a man-to-man interview format (while drinking). Next episode will be out: March 20th
But they did mention the following though:
They said CLAMP Kanbukai will only be released 4 times a year: vernal equinox, summer solstice, autumnal equinox, and winter solstice
Ohkawa mentions that originally they thought not all members will appear in each episode but thing is only Mokona was missing in some episodes and taht was it.

(…) I don’t know. I am just thinking out loud.
(…) in this case they are using their own creations. Although maybe because is not just a line wallpaper now, they are making profit out of the (…) the sales so maybe the editor companies are involved differently this time (meaning they may be getting a % out of the sales). (…)
I was thinking the same about why Kobato was not included. Maybe they did this design before Kobato wallpaper was out (or even draw)
In my experience Copyright checking process can take a lot of time when you are designing pieces of media using images/photos etc but (…)
Wow great find!
I am happy X got 2 characters featured!
No Kobato. 😳
Maybe this was designed before Kobato wallpaper was released 🤔
I am sure this design made them think who to feature next. TB’s Seishiro ? Feels weird not to have him 🤔 Akiho from Clear Card may come too
Chiikawa 😂 sooo unnecessary 😆 but hey girls like cute mascots so 🤷🏻♂️
You’re probably true about the collabs but we may get some insights about the process itself and that may be really interesting to hear!
I think Kamui is very likely to follow although we haven’t had MKR trio yet (probably with new anime?)
Ooooh! Sounds really interesting!!!
Thank you for the English subtitles!! I always enjoy your reels 💓
I wonder if they have a task division for when they draw scenery like this?
We may never know 😅
All computer related stuff I think it relies on Nekoi but that may have changed right?
The most difficult to figure it out is Satsuki for me. Because she does so many things.
Ohkawa just loves to play with our feelings 🤭🤭🤭 and we don’t mind at all 😂😂😂😂
That Hinoto-like character omg
But hey after all these years is only natural that some characters design will remind us to other characters so everything’s cool 😎
I think after Clear Card they probably want to go easy for a while. And for that purpose Holic is really good.
Do you think they are preparing something new? I know nothing but somehow I don’t think they are working in something new or at least. I don’t think they are working in something that would make them too busy.
IMO Kamui is more likely because IMO it would sell more because it represents a whole series and not a single character that some people may like but some other don’t. Again I don’t know what I’m talking about and this is just my pure imagination.
TB it’s a good example of this. But somehow they know they are going to get profit out of it and they probably have figured it out the perfect circuit to get profit, even out of those not so much popular series. That being said, I think we can still dream of having Seishiro or Kamui.
I was thinking about this the other day. I don’t know much, but I think the criteria they use to pick the characters that they are going to develop into toys It’s kind of particular, especially lately. Because sometimes they pick characters from series that are not that big.
I still think about the trip they did last year to gather materials. I wonder if was just an excuse to travel or they really did research.
I saw on your stories X also has connections with Okinawa… i couldn’t help to hope it is related (although I don’t know of course)
April is a big announcement month for CLAMP so maybe they are preparing something. Maybe it would be a combined campaign with other companies/brands ?
So we have something to wait for! That’s great!
Although I did wanted it to be about X though but hey
Indeed there is so Many things to do a great campaign
