Hello, still there
clamp Japan CLAMP is a group of Japanese cartoonists. Originally a fan organization composed of 11 people, it is now a professional comics team composed of 4 key members. The members are: * Ohkawa Ageha (Old name: Ohkawa Nanase) May 2, 1967, Osaka Born in the government. Blood type is type A. * Mokona (もこな, Mokona. Old name: もこなあぱぱ (Mokona Apapa), Mokona Apapa) was born in Kyoto Prefecture on June 16, 1968. Blood type is type A. * Nekoi Tsubaki (Nekoi Tsubaki. Old name: Nekoi Mick) was born on January 21, 1969 in Kyoto Prefecture. Blood type is O. * Igarashi Satsuki (いがらしHan月, Igarashi Satsuki. Old name: Igarashi Satsuki) was born on February 8, 1969 in Kyoto Prefecture. Blood type is type A. Other old members of CLAMP include: Nakamori Haru, Akiyama Tamayo (Akiyama Tamayo), Sei Haru (Itai Takeo), Nanao Haru, Higasa Soji, Haru? Kagami, Poseidon, Inoue Joe, etc. . Usually, Okawa is responsible for the story creation of CLAMP comics, Mogo is mainly responsible for drawing the characters, Nekoi is responsible for the story and coloring, and Igarashi is responsible for creating backgrounds, netting and other work. In the world of doujinshi creation, a group is an absolutely indispensable condition, because first-time creators can only have the opportunity to publish their works with the help of others. However, the general method of cooperation in the Japanese doujinshi community is "publishing together" rather than "division of labor." Occasionally, there will be works by two people like Juishui Shu and Sakura Linzi. But in the doujinshi world, CLAMP is considered the originator of comics creation that is analyzed in detail as if it were a movie. Who is CLAMP? This is not the name of a cartoonist, but a cartoon creation group. It is only a niche publication, but it has almost overturned the 40-year-old editorial system in the Japanese girl comics industry. In the early 1990s, there was a "CLAMP storm" that shocked everyone. Since it started as a doujinshi group, CLAMP's members have continued to change. From 11 people at the beginning to 4 people today, CLAMP has gone through the glorious era when comic doujinshi took off. Each has its own strengths, and the division of labor is detailed. This also created the glorious ClAMP century. Facts have proved that every time CLAMP launches a new project, people can't help but be amazed by their shrewdness and meticulousness. Normally, when a painter publishes a picture album, they just hope to sell as many copies as possible, but CLAMP came up with a "limited edition", which made CLAMP charming and panicked, and the value of the picture album immediately skyrocketed. For CDs, radio plays, audio tapes, autograph sessions, posters, calendars, notebooks, pads... and all kinds of peripheral products you can think of, CLAMP will not miss them all, and they must all be designed to be unique. Among all the comics creators who started out as doujinshis, no one has achieved such a great success and fame as CLAMP. Even Gao Heyong cannot achieve the popularity and popularity of CLAMP. Leaving aside the way CLAMP manages its own business, CLAMP has also successfully established itself in terms of painting skills. Their works have been dubbed "post-aestheticism" by readers. The so-called post-aestheticism refers to the difference between traditional shojo comics, one of which lies in the "feeling of the picture". The beauty of the characters in the picture is more important than the story. This is "aestheticism". However, traditional aestheticism often pursues beauty more than the authenticity of human body proportions. CLAMP's works combine the characteristics of aestheticism, but use superb and stable finishing techniques to eliminate the mistakes that predecessors often made in body or lines, and introduce the latest network techniques that were popular in gender-neutral comics in the 1990s into girls' comics. We capture the realistic light and shadow characteristics of dots to vividly portray the sky, clouds, waterfalls, and waves, and try to combine them with the background shapes of the movie "Alien" to create a bizarre atmosphere. This kind of gorgeous beauty that pursues perfection is called "post-aestheticism".
