Campus Police Dukylon
^[$@3X1`FC7Y%G%e%+%j%*%s^[(B 1992 2 Newtype 900
CLAMP did this manga as a joke.
Gakuen Tokkei Dyucarion
[School Special Police Duklyon; Genki; K; 1+; Semi-SF gag] **
CLAMP's very unserious and very silly manga about two teenagers assigned
the task of protecting the CLAMP school from the evil secret cartel,
Imonoyama-Syoutengai (silly name), by a mysterious Head officer (who has
a very strong resemblance to Nokoru - he wears sunglasses, so it's not
supposed to be evident to the characters in the manga). The two boys'
direct officer, Ellie, is even stronger than the two, but she doesn't
fight (just threatens them). Nanase thought up this series after watching
those afternoon real-life action crime-fighting hero stuff for kids.
It's funny ... if you're in the mood. (I don't know what struck me, but
I own the book, so there it is)
CLAMP Campus Detective Service
^[$B#C#L#A#M#P3X1`C5De^[(B 1992 3 Asuka 520
A light comedy featuring three whiz kids in Clamp Elementary School.
Takes place in the same campus as Dukylon.
*** Tongyun Kim, Rec.Arts.Manga Manga Guide
The detective team aims to help female students on campus to find clues
to their lost stuff. Nokoru is very popular among female students, and
he's quite glad to help them. He is sort of the "leader" of the team,
and he is extremely smart.
*** Cynthia Ma, Rec.Arts.Manga Manga Guide
CLAMP Gakuen Tanteidan
[CLAMP School Detective Group; Mystery DX; K; 2+; school gag/comedy] ***
Series about three boys, who make up the CLAMP school elementary
division school officers, performing semi-detective duties when ladies
are in need of it! Nokoru, the youngest son of the Imonoyama family
that set up the CLAMP school (mass university is closer) is the
President, Suow is the Vice President, and Rei (who also appears in
New-Types "20 Mensou ni Onegai (thief story)" as the hero thief himself)
is the Secretary. Inhabits the same universe as Ducarion (and for that
matter, "20 Mensou").

Night Head 1993 2 Kadokawa Shoten 1400
(story by Iita Jouji ^[$BHSED>y<#^[(B)
This was originally a late-night TV series using real actors. It was
about two brothers who were locked up in a lab because of their psychic
powers, and what happens to them after they leave the lab. I think the
video is already out. The novel, written by the director of the TV
series, will finish at 5 volumes. -TKa
REX Kyouryuu Monogatari

A promo manga for the REX movie.
RG VEDA [Rig Veda; Wings; S; 6+; Mythological fantasy] ***** %5?
100 years passed since Taishaku-Ten rebelled against the Heavenly Emperor
and taken the seat for himself. The sole heir to the now extinct Ashura
god clan, Ashura, is awakened from his/her sealed sleep by Yasha-Oh of
the Yasha clan. Thus the wheel of destiny begins to turn towards the
"Break" of Heaven.... (Too difficult to describe. Read the coming Griffin
Review! This manga is great. IMO) Continuous episodic-type story.
*** Miho Nishida, Griffin Report #4, 9 March 1993
For a *very* extensive description of RG Veda see also the excellent Griffin
Report #5 from 24 March 1994, which is included at the end of this guide...
Seiden (RG Veda)
^[$@@;EA!J%j%0!&%t%'!<%@!K^[(B 1991 7 Shinshokan 490
Although CLAMP borrowed ideas and names from Hindu/Buddhist mythology,
RG-VEDA has very little to do with them in terms of story. This manga is
CLAMP's first major work and its story and art are getting better and
better with each volume. IMO, RG-VEDA defines the current "state of the
art" of Shojo-manga. HIGHLY recommended.
Shirahime Shou
^[$@GrI1>6^[(B 1992 1F Koubunsha 500
This book consists of 3 romance short stories about "snow". There is a
legend that whenever it snows, it is the tears of a white princess.
Artwork may not appeal to many, because to create the sentimental snow
environment, the background is always dark. But the stories are quite
good and romantic.
*** Cynthia Ma, Rec.Arts.Manga Manga Guide
Tokyo Babylon
^[$@El5~#B#A#B#Y#L#O#N^[(B 1991 7 South 580
Demon hunt story heavily influenced by Kujaku-Oh. However, it concentrates
more on the social background and inner feelings of characters rather than
violence and action.
*** Tonghyun Kim, Rec.Arts.Manga Manga Guide
Tokyo Babylon [; South; S; 4+; Occult action drama] ***
Subaru is the head of the reinoh-ryokusha (spirit exorcisits) family
Sumeragi. He has his twin sister, Hokuto, and a male friend, Seiichiroh,
to care for him (these two often tease Subaru about Seiichiroh wanting
to marry him and so forth). Subaru helps out various people with occultic
troubles and otherwise, while Seiichiroh seems to be hiding another darker
personality behind his always smiling face.... (Boy, does he look evil
when he takes off his eyeglasses!) Series-type story.
*** Miho Nishida, Griffin Report #4, 9 March 1993
X 1992 5 Asuka 390
Occult battle manga taking place in the near future. Features great
artwork, intriguing characters and complex plots. It takes place in the
same Universe as Tokyo Babylon.
*** Rec.Arts.Manga Manga Guide
X [; Asuka; K; 3+; contemporary occult-SF action drama] ****
A seeress sees the coming of the "End of the World". In her vision,
a boy, Kamui, who can either be an angel or a demon, seems to hold
the key to the world's destiny. Two destiny collides as two seeress
(sisters, it turns out) each try to bring about the future as she sees
them. Group of men and women called the "Seven Seals", who would side
with the seeress Hinoto, and the "Seven Heralds", who would side with
the seeress Kanoe, begin to gather around Kamui. The final legend of
the Earth is about to begin.... Continuous novel-type.
*** Miho Nishida, Griffin Report #4, 9 March 1993
X is currently running in the magazine Asuka. Apparently there are
character cards included with each installment!
*** Richard Vermaas
Well, as I mentioned on my post, the cards were supposed to continue
for 7 months; two characters each month. It just started last month,
and it was, naturally, Kamui and Fuuma. However, there are no cards
for this month (7). I kind of wonder if there will be cards next month,
since X is probably not going to be on ASUKA, again.
One thing I forgot to mention in the article was that the release date
of X 6 is pushed back; the actual date now unknown. I guess it would be
June 17, but that's only a guess.
