I uploaded Shirahime-syo by CLAMP for [livejournal.com profile] clamp2share, so I thought I'd share it.

Summary: They say when it snows it's actually Shirahime-syo (the white lady, spirit of winter)'s tears. But she tells a lost traveler the true origin of snow. Instead of being a yuki-onna horror story, like it'd look like, the manga tells three sad tales happening during a snowy day. A girl who hunts a wolf, two men who want to reunite with their beloved women, a pair of herons who'll always be together. Tragedy, death, love, loss, snow. The style is gorgeous, with a heavy Japanese feudal myth ambience, and the stories are heart-breaking. It doesn't matter if you like CLAMP or not. You must download it because it's art, dammit.

The story about the herons broke my heart. The art is lovely, but I think that CLAMP's art style has improved a great deal since then. (I consider xxxHOLiC to be the new benchmark.)

It's still a beautful book, even if it's depressing.

The herons' is my favorite story, even though it breaks my heart so much. What I like about the art is the fact it doesn't look like CLAMP at all. It feels so... traditional Japanese/Asian, and it's so addequate for the kind of stories the manga tells.

OK! Lo he bajado por que tu lo has dicho XDDDD

Es broma, muchas gracias, no lo habia leido y me ha gustado muchisimo ^_______^ Se nota que es de Clamp, pero el estilo de 'antes', de cuando RGveda y TB, y aun mas 'fragil'.... precioso vamos ^_~ Mi favorita es la del lobo (Inuki, q orignal) y la de la tia que cumplio su promesa a la 'perfeccion' me ha sorprendido mucho XD

Mira que es apropiado tu icon XDDDDD

La historia de Inuki es muy triste T_T Y el lobo era una preciosidad, aunque daba miedo.
