CLAMP

hey! as I told you before, I'm a hundred percent on fire in blogging these days! you can see that each day I could write two or three posts in a row.

do you like manga and anime? I always have a deep unexplainable affection towards them. the main reason is because being a mangaka (the person who makes manga/comic books) turns out to be clearly hard. why? because first, they are chased by deadline while they have to sketch and perfect (perfect here, is a verb) their drawings. second, drawing manga is terribly intricate! the sketching, the stroking, the perfecting part, and the final touch. if I were asked to make jobs I do highly appreciate and adore, I would list mangaka as the first rank.

among all mangakas, I have a profound impression to this group of mangakas:


who knows these kirei onna's? yup, you got it right. they are CLAMP. originally, CLAMP was a group of mangakas consisted of 9 members, but now only 4 left. they are: Okawa, Mokona, Nekoi, and Satsuki. seriosuly, they have so many styles of drawing and plenty genres of plot in each of their manga.

these are some outstanding yet stupendous mangas from CLAMP:

Clamp School Detectives (Clamp Gakuen Tanteidan) - 1992

Shirahime - 1992

X - 1992 (my favorite!!!!!!)

Magic Knight Rayearth - 1993


Cardcaptor Sakura - 1996

Angelic Layer - 1999

Chobits - 2001

XXX Holic - 2003 (my second favorite!!)

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle - 2003

Code Geass - 2006 (in cooperation with Sunrise, but it was CLAMP's original design)

those are the mangas (and also animes) from CLAMP that I have watched and read. see what I mean by various styles? we can see the differences in the body proportion and faces. I think CLAMP created the 'Long Body' style since XXX Holic but among all, the artwork I love most is XXX Holic.
