Chasing the Black Butterfly

location: Home, going to sleep finally ☆

mood: excited

Just a small note before going to sleep that I finally saw the bigger version of the new Clamp in Cardland special card (the one with Subaru and Seishirou). To be honest I don't know what hit me more, but I quess Sei-chan in the background. I mean his smile is so disarming I almost fell off the chair when I first saw it. Not to mention, is it just me or does Subaru-chan have this cute, characteristic for him expression when he is not fully content with something? As if Hokuto-chan was taking that photo teasing Subaru a little at the same time （*＾＾）
Cute beyond words ♥♥♥



Either way, yay for the new card and new illustration （ ＾＾）Y☆Y(＾^ ）
It's surely a must-have for me (the left part that is). Though come to think it will probably cost me fortune to get it (^～^)

location: Home, not feeling too good

mood: high

It so happened I was capable of putting my hands on a Clamp Newtype Platinum a little while ago.
I bought it because of the 18.5 X volume that came with it, but never expected what a gorgeous thing the magazine itself is *O* ~ ☆ (even better than the manga itself, I thought it would at least come with the hard cover or something).
So many pictures, including very rare ones (that I have only seen in very poor resolution or haven't seen at all)! Now I have to practice japanese more, since it would be a real waste to have it and not be able to read it (is ashamed =.=)

Anyway, I thought some people might like it if I shared some Tokyo Babylon pictures.
I scanned all of them myself, but you're free to take them *^_^*
Hope you like them.. ♥

[the pictures will be put here soon]
[sorry for not posting them yet, was feeling kind of bad lately]

Quote taken from the one-and-only polish manga publishing house called JPF (translated by me a little messy into english).
I hope they drown themselves quickly.

Likewise, there was another series who shared the same popularity - six-volume series entitled "Tokyo Babylon"; a story about demons, which was published since 1991 till 1994 in the South magazine; drawn in a very simple manner, almost looking like sketch. Both stories are very worth looking into, since anime producers were interested in them.

First of all, since when TB is a demon-hunting story? Maybe Ghostbusters already? (Or is Subaru-chan a demon? (￣▽￣)ノ＿彡☆)
Second of all, it so happens it's a 7 volumes series, not six.
Third, it was published in Wings Comics distributed by Shinshokan publishing company. South, yes, but South Shinshokan, not South Wings.
Fourth, what's with the sketch thing? I mean sketch? It's not Naoko Takeuchi for God's sake!
Fifth, there are much more important things when it comes to TB than that so-called anime. Is that anime even TB related? Besides for the fact that Hokuto is trying to kill everyone with her high-pitched voice but Subaru and Seishirou could care less staring at each other in such a lovey-dovey manner?
And sixth, as far as I know and as it is written in the last volume it was 1990 - 1993, not 1991-1994 (Though the annex things are from 1994, but I somehow doubt they were that precise =_=" Clamp says 1993).
Honestly, I wonder who wrote this stupidity, because I've never seen so many mistakes in two sentences only.
( 　ﾟ,_ゝﾟ)

To crown the workings of the four girls, a high-budgetary animated film entitled 'X The Movie' directed by the famous Rin Taro, was produced. Could somebody even want anything more?

Yes. You might want to kill yourself, when somebody encourages you that this kind of movie is a prize for all your hard work so far. Honestly~ （￣へ￣）...
