Maaya Sakamoto & CLAMP Interview

A translator by the name of deltafour (who has been creating a very awesome English mirror of Maaya Sakamoto's all-Japanese site) has translated into English an interview between Maaya and CLAMP made for Maaya's 15th anniversary, which she's been celebrating this year. It's a VERY cute interview that talks about dating, taste in men, life in one's 30s and so on, and is very enlightening (and amusing/entertaining!) when it comes to learning new things about all five of them! Enjoy :)
