Thread to spam all sorts of art from CLAMP
About CLAMP:
>Clamp (stylized as CLAMP) is an all-female Japanese manga artist group that formed in the mid-1980s. It consists of leader Nanase Ohkawa (大川 七瀬, Ōkawa Nanase), and three artists whose roles shift for each series: Mokona (もこな, Mokona), Tsubaki Nekoi (猫井 椿, Nekoi Tsubaki), and Satsuki Igarashi (いがらし 寒月, Igarashi Satsuki). Almost 100 million Clamp tankōbon copies have been sold worldwide as of October 2007.LINKS:

Great thread!
One of my favorite series was Legal Drug, which was put on "haitus" and then re-released under Drug and Drop…. and then put on haitus. I really wish they would continue it! The original Legal Drug books were this matte army green that looked so cool. I really loved how they looked on my bookcase next to all the gloss covers.
Did anyone see they were doing the design work for a Netflix original anime? I'm super excited to see what they do!

>>114564TBH I always thought they were trying to portray different elements of love and just went about it in the worse way they could. A lot of the creep factors could of been avoided by having the characters different ages. Hideki as a teen could of made his interactions with Chii a lot better instead of the loser NEET we got. Instead of a porn stash he had it's a few dirty magazines every teen has and his reactions to her flipping through them fit better with a hormonal teen. Also age Yumi up the story with her and the baker was sweet at first glance but just extremely creepy with him being 39 and her 17
No. 114669
>>114666Yeah, Chii didn't have to look like a middle schooler with her off button inside her vagina.
>>114637Chobits is basically anime's take on Born Sexy Yesterday. Chii has the vocabulary of a pokemon and her first attempt at getting a job ends up with her almost doing porn, all while highlighting how innocent and childish she is. Absolute Boyfriend is basically the same plot gender-flipped (and the android is explicitly a sexbot) and manages to not be nearly as suspect. Imagine if the main character of that manga had to activate her robot boyfriend by stimulating his prostate.

And the asexual element doesn't work cause when it is touched by someone else Freya takes over and tells him that he is not the one and only the one can touch Chii there. It's just Hideki decides to not have sex with her no more no less.
No. 114707
>>114681That is the story Clamp was trying to tell though, even if hamfistedly. A lot of people judge Chobits without reading until the end or make impressions after the first episode and go off that. I know this board heavily leans radfem but I'm surprised anons are acting like you're not allowed to be a woman and like Chobits when it's a lot more popular with women (and not just pickmes) than it's ever been with scrotes.
For Clamp it's a weird manga but for the genre of coomer manga it's one of the best because at least it has a feminine touch, other subplots to care about and attempts to subvert it at the end with a more romantic focus. Not that the bar is very high. Try to watch DearS or Heaven's lost Property which have a similar theme and you'll see what I'm talking about.
That said Clamp having a creep factor is not a surprise, do people not remember the 11 year old being proposed to by a teacher in Sakura?

>>114725>I remember shipping it because I was 10 and constantly crushing on young teacher and the college student tutors who were nice to meThis is why shit like this is so dangerous and unucceptable in comics for children. It's literally grooming readers by normalizing pedophilia.
Don't get me wrong, I love Clamp but this was the worst thing they did and it never should have happened (unless it was downplayed like in the anime, in which it's a one-sided crush).
I really hope the Clampettes were just fucked in the head and not consciously pushing that kind of shit on little girls.

>>114740One of them definitely has an age gap fetish. I‘m obviously biased but I appreciate them making it so idk uwu pure soul bond “I’ve loved you through100 lives” thing though, and not masturbating itself on the teehee so taboo edge like many age gap ships tend to do. The fantasy worlds i think make these relationships feel larger than life thus exist above daily life’s conventions. I do agree that children looking at these content more often than not might take up the wrong message. Japanese women just seem extremely desensitized to such tropes in media… so we get beautiful popular stories featuring sketchy age gaps like After the Rain or Shiota-sensei and Amai-chan.

Dumping some of CLAMP's Code Geass art.
What was even the point of them getting CLAMP to do character designs if they were just gonna animate the series in that ugly, unappealing style where everyone looks like a damn frog? It's a shame that the character designs were wasted on a series as badly written and ugly as Code Geass.

>>363714>>114563I had this same sentiment. Watched the anime when I was a kid then decided to read the manga. I ended up showing the first episode to my kid sister as an adult and she was instantly turned off it. Watching it with her made me realize wtf I was watching as a kid.
I also feel clover could have been so good had the story been tweaked slightly. Both of them have art I really like.
