Who is CLAMP?
CLAMP is a group of four women manga artists (known as mangaka in
Japan). The current members are Ageha Ohkawa, Tsubaki Nekoi, Mokona,
and Satsuki Igarashi. These
women are responsible for Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles, Chobits,
Cardcaptor Sakura, X, Wish, Suki Dakara Suki (Because I Love You) and
many others. Several of these manga have been made into anime of the
same names, while some are only available in the original comic book
format.
They often represent themselves as manga characters. These examples are from their official website in Japan.
This is a scan from the end of the first Wish manga, published by TokyoPop
in the US. In these drawings, each of the women have different animal
ears, and are portrayed in a type of drawing style known as SD, or
super-deformed.
