Tomoyo is in love with Sakura, there's definitely something in the air between Touya and Yukito. Tomoyo's mom is obsessed with making Sakura look like her mother - whom she was in love with. Sakura's mother was a student when she married Sakura's father - who was her teacher. One of her classmates is engaged to their teacher. And not to mention, this is volume where things get weird. Cue the cutest, most tooth-achingly sweet adventure ever! Given that the target audience for this is kids, older readers may feel a little disenchanted with how easily everything is solved. When Sakura opens a book in her father's library, she accidentally frees the Guardian of the Seal and now must collect the escaped Clow Cards.

Wouldn't that be a tad incestuous?!)Īnd finally, the most disturbing thing of all, was the fact that Sakura's classmate Rika has a relationship with their teacher.


Like mother like daughter, Tomoya was also in love with Sakura (so. Then, we discover that Sakura's bff Tomoya's mom was in love with Sakura's mom (who also happened to be her cousin). 2, we also learn that Li also has a huge crush on Tsukishiro (love triangle?) What with her crush on Tsukishiro and whatnot (a fourth grader in love with a sophomore?) BUT, in Vol. LIKE WHAAAAT? That means Sakura's dad was a pedophile!! 2 had a bunch of really weird/disturbing relationships going on.įirst, we discover that Sakura's mom was only 16 when she married her 27-year-old teacher. 2 that I somehow never noticed before (when I read the manga and watched the anime as a child). 1 five stars but there are some really disturbing aspects about Vol. I am only giving this manga an extra star for nostalgia's sake. They were well received at the convention, with 6,000 fans in attendance at their panel. In 2006, they made their first USA public debut at Anime Expo in Anaheim, California. Ohkawa and Igarashi, wanting to go with the flow of Nekoi's and Mokona's name changes, changed their names as well. In a later interview with Ohkawa, it was revealed that initially Mokona wanted to drop her surname because it sounded too immature for her liking, while Nekoi disliked people commenting that her name was the same as Mick Jagger's. The August 2004 issue of Newtype USA, a magazine specializing in events of the anime and manga subcultures, reported that the members of CLAMP simply wanted to try out new names. In 2004, CLAMP's 15th anniversary as a mangaka group, the members changed their names from Nanase Ohkawa, Mokona Apapa, Mick Nekoi, and Satsuki Igarashi to Ageha Ohkawa, Mokona, Tsubaki Nekoi and Satsuki Igarashi (her name is pronounced the same, but written with different characters) respectively. Currently, there are four members in the group.

Other former members of CLAMP also included Soushi Hishika, O-Kyon, Kazue Nakamori, Yuzuru Inoue and Shinya Ōmi. Of the remaining seven, Tamayo Akiyama, Sei Nanao, and Leeza Sei left the group during the production of the RG Veda manga. CLAMP originally began in 1989 as a twelve-member dōjinshi circle, but by 1990, the circle had diminished from twelve to seven.
