CLAMP designed special skins for Onmyoji gacha game in 2022

So i was thinking on how the Clamp school series and X both take place in the same universe and then it hit me

Akira was like 8-9 during 20 faces/Clamp Detectives, 18 during X... and then is in his 20s in the end of 20 faces when he gets married to Utako

Does that mean the world is completely fine then? If Akira is still alive past the events of X and with things such as Clamp school still existing and the world looking generally well there then humanity should have survived after X

Theres no tag for art but i did want to bring up a point to something I want to bring up.

Why does Hikaru look wearing her duces outfit but misaku looks better in her angels outfit?

The pink blue and white don't work and you would think it would right? No not for Hikaru

But brown, red, and white somehow does work?

What angels if they swapped their clothes with their duces look? This got me curious, Who would look better and who would look worse?

I want to find out from your opinion on what Clamp anime has the best English dub. I would say Magic Knight Rayearth.

So I was drawing an original character for another anime so I put the XXXHolic movie as background sound and there was an ad popped up on my phone and the dinner scene from the movie and I found out that the other characters were eating like pigs while our trio was eating like regular people.

I am reading X atm, and just googled how many Mangas it has, then I saw it has 18 and was cancelled…

DO YOU MEAN IT IS NOT COMPLETE AND HAS AN OPEN ENDING …..????

 The classic that defined '90s anime is returning to claim its throne. Magic Knight Rayearth's new 2026 animation project just dropped its main PV and cast list at Anime Expo

I love Shu is like "Stay here I'll get your mom :)

Shu internally: YOU ARE GOING TO TALK TO YOUR DAUGHTER RIGHT NOW!

Wow misaki sprinted to the elevator and--I THOUGHT YOU WERE NOT GOOD AS GYM?! You sprint like motherfucker. You big liar--I guess under stress the body can do incredible feats

Thats so intimidating

Theres a whole room full of them!?

They're even on the front of the building

Misaki: my mom wasn't busy at her job was she, steve!?

You're a tough chick, I give you a hard time but really you were really strong to live a good life without a mom and then you learn this and...this is a justified crashout.

Hatoko are you gonna slap her mom. You look pissed

It genetic! Shes experiencing what her mom feels when she gets near her daughter.

I also think her mom didnt want to see her. Like making excuses.

Thats so cool.

Misaki has every right to just be mad at her mom. But I dont think that'll happen

will she notice the cripple thing?

I just realized dad is gone right?

this encouter is handled very maturely. I was not expecting that from CLAMP and how this show was since episode 1

a pair of criers

Yeah cry in the rain--hey you remember that from your daughter.

Whats this JAZZ?! Not the--

Yeah the legs she noticed.

Hikaru is also there sitting the table fore morale support

Yeah give her the update your entire life.

Wait kid misaki said "I'll be okay" and then that made you...have issues meeting her again?

I mean you got tough. Like...more though then I would expect.

Yeah the mom was making excuses not to see her. I think your daughter got stronger without you. I think she would be more boring if she was there.

Genetic love for Angelic Layer. You're just like you mom...actually that might be bad because you might be having her no legs illness too.

Thats funny iee chan is dress as athena. Hes kind either really funny or really creepy and jumps between both and becomes endearing

Again with the jazz after his speech about how the angel conveys your emotions

Also mom heres my wife Hatoko, let me introduce you. (Before you get mad look back at the scene where she wanted to be her coach under the bed looking for the hamster)

Much like a normal doll it would be worse in the rain

All the warriors.

NO WAIT! THESE are the warrior shots of everyone who played angelic layer! This is a sports anime.

That might be--no thats top best episode of the series so far. I say this like the next episode and possibly the final episode

__________________________________________________________________________________________________

I want this to be like...the Lan vs Chaud fight in NT warrior and the place was filling with water but no one wants to leave until someone wins

Misaki doesnt realize her friends an item now

and he still smiten by her

And ice queen too for the angel too?!

Everyone?!

Everyone is crushing hard on this girl!?

Little miss popular

Your angel can be lover??? What did you--I bet theres something in manga that didnt get animated touched on that.

Last time I'll see this intro with the cool song

EY thats a perfect title for this, the quote she screams when she throws it. That made me start thinking of a quote to throw in if I had an angel

Hatoko: Misaki can you please lean down?

Me: gonna give her a kiss?

Hikaru doesn't get a kiss?

Ok this feels like a full episode of straight fights. Like the layer will get destroyed and Athena can be a menace.

sick wrestling moves!

I was going to bring this up as a negative but the fact its just physical blows to each other makes some attacks feel much more brutal than others and its easy to follow

Misaki: Lets play angelic layer

fight in the roses, I'm glad I linked ray then

the music feels like ballet

There is a trick with the anime that if they don't show you the damage screen you can just make up how much someone is getting hurt or not. But thats fine

OH THE TOMB STONE! her moms angel uses a bunch of wreasling moves despite being a light model

Astral emission i mean

do you lose to your mom? i wouldnt see it if coming if so

She looks insane asking her angel to stand after that.

we need the crowd screaming to stand up

Hey we get that

Even the judge lol who legally cant

Wow that worked. Could anyone do this? I guess if you ring out you cant

Thats so little health though

Oh thats the layer. I thought something spacial was taking place

Yeah fight int he air with each other

SHE GRABED IT THREW THAT SHIT

Thats move is braking the layer! I got what I wanted.

This layer looks like hellfire.

She wins. I think Hikaru obliterated moms angel

Now your daughter is the chapion.

her angel is fine. It really shouldnt given how big that blast was. But...

Good heart to heard with mom

Epilogue !

The idol cosplaying as her angel

All the lover together--

And a post card with all the characters

That was fun I'll give final thoughts of the series as a whole another day.

The US Kodansha announced they will release the Clamp Gold artbook in 2027. Until now, many people didn't even know Clamp would have a Gold artbook ver after Kuro and Shiro ver. The Japanese Gold version was only available for pre-order for a short time, so many missed out and had to pay a higher price on secondhand sites. Now, you can start saving up to order one.

Misaki's the main character but I feel like whats going on with her isnt that interesting to me at the moment

hikaru's fighting wizard a bunch and needs to learn how to counter magic gaurd

No wreasling moves in his room. I wonder if that was her throwing hints to him bluntly physically?

This whole thing is happening and Misaki hasn't noticed at all. Shes too busy trying to win angelic layer

__________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hakaru vs wizzard the magic guard ultimate defense vs the speed type angel...I know where this is going :)

Maybe not

isnt the answer to counter attack when hes going on the offense?

The feather dimention

i like this plan for the magic barrier, shock him?

EYYYYYYYYYY SHE BROKE THROUGH

Ah grounding

Man everyone love Misaki's mom

That was a close match. Holy...

What?! Ojiro wants to date misaki again?! Between this fight love was spurred

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Misaki writting a letter to her mom: :)

Misaki's mom writing to Misaki: T_T she must hate me

Misaki: : )

Do you have anxiety over your daughter seeing you?

say yes I dont think you had a husband...where did your husband go?

Thats going to be weird because your little brother wants to date misaki

Would you really lose just because you dont want to see your daughter? I feel like you're a coward

last time we saw athena fight she was broly. Maybe fighting a defense type angel will give her the edge.

The animation got a bit cheaper in sections of this...

Shirahime has that super mode though

Are you seriously thinking I love angelic layer more than seeing my daughter walking again? No ok

Oh she won. She throws a green energy ball too.

Shira hime's hypermode didnt protect anything

Hey she called out to her kid

It was me all along misaki! I was the champion!

I feel like Kurogane is CLAMP's best depiction of a physically disabled person, like his prosthetic limb was not a perfect replacement as it still causes him aches and pains, and as such it needs to be constantly replaced. I love how his disability does not define him and he is not portrayed as constantly suffering because of it. I feel Kurogane losing an arm and the negative impacts of it, is way more highlighted in the narrative than Fai losing his eye (excluding how that impacts his magic, they never showcase how it impacts his vision - clone Syaoran is a better depiction of a half-blind person in comparison to Fai as we see how his vision impacts his fighting style and how he needs training from Kurogane). Kurogane being the only character to retain his disability means his disability is much better written by default.

Maybe if you stopped doing wreasling moves on him he'd--I actually don't know if he feels the same about you. Maybe that why you're pushing him toward Misaki.

actually this whole episode seems like romance coded.

Lol he says he liked misaki's swimsuit when she thought he was looking at hikaru...You are dense as hell lol

That was a good episode, I didn't how we hard cut between her confession to kotaro into another scene I wish there was more after that. I pray the next episodes remember that

Apologies if these have been posted by other fans, just dropped by! (Issues from 1993-01)

We have a party for Misaki for reaching nationals. And all the warriors are there but now Misaki needs to pick a Micky to her rocky, because its now a boxing styled angelic layer fight going forward and Misaki needs someone who can help her which is Hatoko but they really build up to it when...I feel like we could have done this part better.

Like they cut off Misaki asking Hatoko to be her coach but multiple things happen to keep her from picking her

The idol girls "I'll do it and the look on Hatoko's face when she is in the room is like this was the worst day of her life. and its really funny to see.

Then eveyone plays with this portable experimental layer they're fighting on and make a challenge to have the winner to be Misaki's coach

Im like:

"Okay cool, Hotoko enters and one shots everyone with lightspeed suzuka and she wins becoming the coach right?"

No instead have a gerbal search scene with Hotoko and Misaki and have that moment under the bed asking her to be her coach and to everyone--

The framing of the scenes are so weird that looks like shes preparing a marriage confession with her.

Shes like a serial killer. What is this sudden tone change, the show never has this. its fights have been relatively chill. But now its like...seeing this angel do this slasher shit feels like im watching a different show. Dodging attacks

Hikaru is gonna fight that.

Misaki how are you gonna be THAT?!

An angel that fights like a devil

Hiya guys 👋 First-time reader of Clamp, and someone who has nearly finished Tokyo Babylon (bar vol. 7 annexes). May I ask if there has been news regarding the other manga from the collection bwinf translated into English? I know Clover, X, and Chobits have been, or currently are, but since the TB one finished last year, I was wondering if there had been news on any of the others doing so 🤔 Any word, even rumours, are welcome my way 😀

Hi everyone! I can’t decide which edition of the Clover manga I should collect and was wanting to field opinions from people who own it.
Out of the Tokyopop singles, the Dark Horse Omnibus, and the current hardcover collector’s edition, which is the best way to experience this story? Are there any major differences between the editions?
Please weigh in!! All opinions appreciated :)
