The Art of Cardcaptor Sakura series comprises 3 beautiful oversized paperback volumes which are jam-packed with over 100 full color illustrations each from the original CLAMP masterwork ... most of which have never been seen before in America!

The Cardcaptors Anime Book series is a collection of 12 pocket-sized, full-color collectible volumes which feature images from the Kids WB animated series. They can be thought of as comics-in-color and also come with bonus pages that offer secret tidbits and a treasure trove of ultracool info about Sakura and her friends.

What is 'CLAMP'?

CLAMP is the four-woman manga studio that creates the world's most popular manga. For the past 15 years they have worked non-stop, creating everything from the adorable shojo (girls comic) hit Cardcaptor Sakura, to the dark and brooding Tokyo Babylon, to the sci-fi romantic comedy Chobits. Currently they are working on four series: Legal Drug, X, Tsubasa: Resevoir Chronicle and xxxHolic. The group also has a close relationship with anime studio Madhouse, which has adapted most of CLAMP's manga into equally successful anime.

2004 marks the team's 15th anniversary, and to celebrate they are working on a retrospective collection called CLAMP no Kiseki, available from TOKYOPOP in 2005.
