Who knows, this could be the April Fools' Day joke. I think I might be able to have Part 1 of 3 up by this weekend, though no guarantees. In other news, I've been working on New Trials Chapter 72 like mad to make it in time for Sakura's birthday.
And this artbook is definitely a wonderful trip down the memory lane, 20 years back into my childhood, and will be much treasured. But I hope we don't have to wait till the 25th anniversary for a compilation of the new artwork. So, hopefully, this artbook sells very well, which can warrant a new artbook, whether it be at the end of this year, or more likely, the next anniversary or special occasion. One of my favorite pieces with Sakura and Syaoran in the tree with their teddy bears was missing. The spread with Sakura with the clear flowers on the left and Sakura and Syaoran holding the star on the right might be one of my favorite face-to-face pages in the book because that is probably one of my favorite solo Sakura artwork, while the star picture as you know is used on my website, and I think the picture that best represents the two together.īased on the selection of this artbook, I'm very confident a second compilation artbook will be released in the near future with the newer artworks, for there were definitely key artwork that I think could have been included in this one and were purposefully withheld. I wish I could read CLAMP's descriptions in the back though. But I do love how some of the artwork was paired, and there was clearly thought put into their arrangement and order. Some pictures I like were missing, such as Touya playing the violin. I have included some of my favorite spreads though. I don't think there is a shoujo heroine who has had more solo pictures of her in different outfits than any other franchise. Which is why I'm loving all the new artwork that has been streaming out.
If I have a secret confession to make, I could do less with less solo Sakura pictures in general and more group pictures. But it is very interesting, looking back at the "history" of CCS.Īs for the artbook itself, I would say it is very Sakura-centric, as can be said about the entire CCS franchise. And the chronology poster, above, I don't think I will unfold again because it's so huge, I could barely find a flat surface large enough to photograph it. I love the back just as well because it has Sakura's two magic circles in gold. I guess to better to protect the book's pretty cover. I love that the artbook comes with a clear plastic case, which is printed with a gold border. I was introduced to the brand through the 2004 film Kamikaze Girls, an awesome movie. The books is hardcover and pink and pretty, with new artwork on the cover of a dress that will be a collaboration project with lolita brand Baby, the Stars Shine Bright. I don't like oversized books, and this one is just the perfect size.
SAKURA CARD CAPTOR 2016 HOW TO
Please do let me know if you any of you have any information on how to get a hold of these for a reasonable price!įirst off, when I picked up the 20th Anniversary artbook, which I've been debating purchasing since it was released one week ago on March 24, I was very happy with the size and how it fits in my hand. Another limited edition artbook I've been dying to get my hands on is the Card Captor Sakura Animated Artworks. There are several books that I really regret I was not able to get a hold of, such as the Card Captor Sakura Nakayoshi 60th Anniversary Edition Vol. I knew I had to get it after seeing the book in person, though it is somewhat pricey, and more pricey because it's imported. There are 100 pictures supposedly handpicked by CLAMP, and while the book did not include all the pictures I liked, since there are so many out there, it included many pieces I do love. The main reason I debated on whether to buy this artbook was because it is a compilation of older, already published artwork, and I wished it included some of the newer pictures CLAMP drew. I posted over on the New Trials Facebook group on whether I should get the Cardcaptor Sakura 20th Anniversary 20th Anniversary Illustration Collection, and of course, I did give in and buy it at the bookstore on April 1, for Sakura's birthday.
