Little bit o' news

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

Gathering the tidbits from the web:

CLAMP in CARDLAND's updated a few parts of their site.

These 3 cards have new illustrations by CLAMP. The first card is the exclusive starter card. The second, Sakura x Sakura, is the exclusive booster card. The last, Kamui x Subaru, is a point trading card(?). The site has also updated other parts of their page if you were interested in the card game. And the Tsubasa OADs will have a card with them.

Tsubasa's OAD site updated, too, but something happened to the site's encoding and the updated text won't show up in Japanese for me. I think the diary and a few other parts were updated. (Feel free to help out).

If you didn't notice, CLAMP-NET sneakily changed the schedule for xxxHolic so that there is a break 10/22 instead of a chapter with color pages.

And Kobato Volume 1 will be out 12/26 according to Newtype 11 via chibiyuuto.

...hmmm, Sakura x Sakura.

ETA: Also for the domestic fans, Geneon's we-bought-too-many-crappy-titles-and-now-we-are-broke news affects its anime distribution. They own Cardcaptor Sakura anime & movies, X anime and Chobits anime, so get 'em while they are available.

SUSPIIIIIIIIICIOUSSSSSSSSS *is shot*

WTH!!?? Subaru/Kamui (o.O;)

[haunter]

... Are you bothered by it at all? O: Because I'm sure not~

[chocolate-980.livejournal.com]

not at all, I was just shocked XDD;

[vehemence.livejournal.com]

Waaaaait that's Kamui/Subaru?? klsdjfkdsfjhdfk I don't know what to think of this xD It's drawn in Tsubasa style right? Cause if so the figure on the left looks too big to be either of them :/ Or maybe I'm just in denial because I want some goddam Sei/Sub XD;

[jlarinda.livejournal.com]

The one on the right's Subaru, the other's Kamui, he seems to be kinda bent so he can. Er. Kiss Su's forehead? >_o *squints* Probably standing on tip-toe or leaning against him somehow, too.

And yeah, they're definitely TRC!Kamui/Subaru.

[hardysmidgen.livejournal.com]

It's not Subaru/Kamui in a romantic relation; it's most likely Subaru and Kamui as the vampire twins given their blood relation in Tsubasa and what the silhoutte suggests. They are preserving all of their main OTPs and as much as they love SeiSub and have perpetuated in every series in which Seishirou and Subaru appear, you don't have to worry. ;)

OMG! It's the twins~! ♥ ♥ o(>.<)o I need that card! XD

*cries*

[floralcloud.livejournal.com]

I was hoping that Sei/Sub would have their happy ending like everybody else in TRC. Guess not...;o;
*cries harder*

Re: *cries*

[ryosato.livejournal.com]

Oh, it looks like it's a forehead-kiss, I wouldn't put aside the possibility of some Sei/Sub. That's one of CLAMP's biggest OTPs, after all! So let's keep hoping! XP

Re: *cries*

[hardysmidgen.livejournal.com]

Exactly, though to me, it's more than just a possibility, since it's been implied in post apocalyptic Tokyo. Subaru and Kamui are blood related twins in TRC, there is no reason to think that they should be barred from showing affection without being in a romantic relationship. SeiSub and have perpetuated in every series in which Seishirou and Subaru appear and I'm confident given that Subaru shared his blood with Seishirou, that Kamui wants to protect his twin against Seishirou and Fuuma's knowledge of Seishirou's constant thoughts/seeking of Subaru = SeiSub set up for final confrontation. You folks don't have to worry. ;)

Gosh, the Kamui/Subaru card looks fabulous even though it's only silhouette.. Do we get a foursome somewhere? =P

Thanks for the info! =)

I'm in the same situation with the OAD's site: now every time it updates, I need to switch my default language for non-Unicode programs to Japanese to read it and then back to Spanish x_x

Last update was "2007.10.10 更新情報: コメント&メッセジページにキャストコメントを追加しました。黒木るいの制作日記第１５回アップ". So the only updated sections are the "Comment & Message" with the seiyuu cast's commentaries and Rui Kuroki's production diary ^^

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

Yeah, like a month ago, the update text turned up all gobbledy-gook for me no matter what I change the default language to. The website must've changed the encoding.

oh well. wish Kuroki would take more interesting photos.

[hungrybookworm.livejournal.com]

Damn, I guess we can forget getting the CCS and X anime in the UK :(

However, my inner S/K-er is delighted with the third card! And hey, if we can have Syaoran/Syaoran, why not Sakura/Sakura as well? :P

[lodelco.livejournal.com]

Wait a minute. Let me ask this. Very. Slowly.

Are you saying that there is a break on 10/22?

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

yes, no chapter.

[lodelco.livejournal.com]

So...no chapter this October?

[nokiirat.livejournal.com]

maybe the last week of october, 29th? we'll have to see how the schedule changes next week at clamp-net. ^_^

[lodelco.livejournal.com]

...

That.

Still.

Doesn't.

Stop me.

From wanting.

To hurt things...

[selenityshiroi.livejournal.com]

MORE HOLiC breaks?

*sob*

I don't think I can hold out much longer! Why are CLAMP doing this to us?!?

The Sub/Kam card looks...intriguing. I like them as twins and all but I'd prefer Sei/Sub or Kam/Fuu cards. But SakuraxSakura? YEAY!

[laury-kos.livejournal.com]

OMF...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
subaruxKamui, kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa <333333333
