   some news ( not as much nowadays )

"TBS already has in their domain a soon-to-be site dedicated for XXXHOLiC, there's still nothing on it apart from the logo image and opening date, the URL is simple as such:

http://www.tbs.co.jp/holic

(following Chobits' logic: http://www.tbs.co.jp/chobits )

I was simply trying that URL, hopeless I must confess, because I never thought it would work, but yey it did !
also Tsubaki Nekois birthday was on the 21st!
Some news to break the silence
It's quite quiet these days, huh? So as we wait for CLAMP's update on the 1st, I've got some tiny pieces of news and a couple of other things.

CLAMP on the ranking !

CLAMP is still on track on animate's ranking, though it lost a bit of steam as XXXHOLiC DVD fell to the 6th position while Tsubasa's one is off the list. It still a deserves a "way to go!" for the fact that it's just the pre-sale.

This information is a bit old in time but smells new for us. Reading through the old topics from Ohkawa-sensei's private board at CLAMP-PLA.NET, I discovered that Ohkawa had a surgical operation on her back around the end of November of the last year o.o
No panic, she's all good already. I can't say the gravity of the problem she had but I don't think it was something too much serious, and it's kinda of predictable that she would unfortunately suffer from that problem since she and all the other CLAMP members spend most (if not ALL) of their working time sitting, leaning their bodies in sometimes bad positions.
But we didn't have many breaks beyond the ordinary around November/December, did we? Well, read that: Ohkawa asked for the doctor if she could work while in the hospital because they (CLAMP) had put their mangas on hold for health reasons before and they didn't want this to happen again o.o" She bought her notebook to the hospital and fought against the medicines and treatments, all for CLAMP. My goodness, for one thing she's great because that shows how serious with her work she is, but from another point, woman, give it a rest ! You're overdoing yourself !

Anyway, as I said, she's already good (thank gosh), back to CLAMP's studio ever since the end of November, I think she stayed at the hospital just for a couple of days."
