Review | CLAMP are currently one of the hottest creative teams in Japan. The Osaka-based all-female collective has produced a number of shoujo-style manga including RG VEDA, "X", and Magic Knight Rayearth, most of which have been animated. Typically, this volume has a black and red cover and full colour frontispieces. The story( if you can follow it) is quirky and interesting, and the art is attractive. (GC). |
