[Discussion] TRC ch 232

The final chapter of Tsubasa -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE- has been scurried around the net.
Feel free to post your thought in the lj community and read what others have posted. There's one more extra/epilogue/special chapter next week, so stay tuned.

[Article] Tsubasa -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE-

Mainichi.jp has a short article about how Tsubasa will end in Shonen Magazine #44 after a 6 year run and 20 million comics sold. The next issue will contain a special chapitre.

[News]NYAF 09+

A tiny amount of new CLAMP news from NYAF 2009:
FUNimation will re-release X TV and the X OVA in 2010. Geneon had originally released the series a few times (regular release, remix, box set, thinpack, etc, etc). The original dub will be used. [credits: ann]

Here's the cover to Maaya Sakamoto's Magic Number (Kobato.'s opening theme song). It will be released November 11th.

[Article] Kobato. anime

Mainichi.jp has a short article from a preview screening of Kobato. at the NHK Broadcasting Center. The director, Mitsuyuki Matsuhara, mentions the fact that the four changing seasons will play a part in the stories and with Kobato's clothing. There are a handful of photos of Kana Hanazawa at the article link, too.

[Video] Kobato. anime special

There was a Kobato. special feature on NHK BS2. You can watch it on Youtube.

(I think you can hear Megumi Nakajima's song in the background, but I'm not positive it's her. ETA: I think the 2ch'ers said it's Hanazawa/Kobato.)

[Cover] Kamigami no Utatane

A larger image of Asano Atsuko's Kamagami no Utatane can be found here. This will be released September 29th.

[PV] Kobato. anime

Kadokawa posted a trailer up for the Kobato. anime up at their youtube site!!! You can hear Maaya Sakamoto's 'Magic Number' theme song in the background.

[Edit: The full opening song can be listened to at youtube. (link from mina_akira@lj)]

[Cover] Shiritsu Horitsuba Gakuen #4

Shiritsu Horitsuba Gakuen #4 has been released (and has hit Yahoo.jp). This is the drama CD that was mailed to those who bought all of the recent OADs and mailed in their vouchers.

You can listen to it over here (post is member-locked).

*updates

[News] xxxHolic title?

Just a curious observation pointed out by 2ch: On Young Magazine's current issue page, xxxHolic is listed as xxxHOLiC・籠 (Rou = Cage) as if it were a new title. It is usually listed like the other series with a link to the series page, but it stands out as something different this time.

[spoilers on lj - don't read if you want to wait]

[Scans] NT 10 - Kobato.

This month's Kobato. article from Newtype can be found at moe.imouto

Kobato.tv updated with a more complete listing of the cast. Megumi Nakajima will be voicing Chiho and Chise Mihara [三原千帆/千世]. The rest of the cast has been confirmed as previously posted. :)

[Update] Kobato. +

Just a quick mention, Kobato.tv has added a couple new wallpapers featuring the new splash. Pretty!

Volume 28 will be released in November.

The 2nd artbook will also be released in November, and will contain a newly illustrated cover, comments from CLAMP and a couple comics for 1,890 yen.

[News] Kobato. seiyuu and more.

Just wanted to mention that Kobato.tv added a new splash. ETA: You can find a magazine scan of this image at moe.imouto. (I'm not sure which magazine it is from). The other news updates have mostly been mentioned before, but...

...From 2ch, we get more seiyuu news from Newtype 10!
Kohaku = Chiwa Saitou
Kiyokazu Fujimoto = Tomoaki Maeno
Sayaka Okiura = Fumiko Orikasa
Chitose Mihara = Houko Kawashima
Kazuto/Kazumasu(?) Okiura(沖浦和斗) = Shinichiro Miki

Notes: Did we ever get debt collector's full name before? Please correct my romanization. I think the 2ch list might've listed Tomoaki's name incorrectly. I'll correct it when we get confirmation/better scan.

And from a preview of next month's Newtype, there looks to be like a CLAMP TRUMP playing card giveaway and Code Geass news...hm..

[News] CLAMP OnlineShop
