A revelation

[taotrooper]

Yay, new default icon! ^_^

I was chatting via MSN with threeleaf right now, and we started talking about Kakei from Gohou Drug. Just in case you know squat about him,
Kakei is a weird, mysterious guy who can see the future, and runs a drugstore with his boyfriend Saiga. Two 17 year-old boys work at the drugstore. You know, the usual: arrange items, clean up, sell... nothing out of the ordinary. Oh, wait, there is. The boys have psychic powers. Sometimes he gives them bonus jobs, all of them involving supernatural things, and they accept for the extra money.

Sounds familiar? I bet you think so. Pictures of Kakei here and here. He's also drawn, like everyone in that manga, by Mick Tsubaki Nekoi.

And another thing: we have serious motives to think he knows Yuuko. He asks, in volume 2, to steal a porcelain pot with daffodiles painted on it. And the same pot appears in XXXHOLiC, on Yuuko's "treasure cove", and Watanuki had to get into the pot for a reason I don't know as I don't speak Chinese.
. And if you do, still click there, as there's a link with XXXHOLiC and him that involves spoilers.

Pam says: Kakei is as cool as Yuuko XD
Kiri says: yeah, he's like a gay male Yuuko
Kiri says: hey, wait a sec
Kiri says: Clow, Yukito, Kakei, Watanuki
Kiri says: is it wise to assume that Yuuko is friend of, or at least knows every single bespectacle guy with powers in CLAMPverse??
Pam says: O_O
Kiri says: *dies*
Kiri says: she's got to have a list and she strikes through the names while she meets them, I bet
Kiri says: you crazy witch, WE SHARE THE SAME FETISH!
Kiri says: *sweatdrop*
Pam says: XD hahahaha

Kujaku *smiling* haha, what a cute boy <3
Kaho : he is, isn't he ? ^_^

Bah, don't give me RG Veda referecences, I can't find it to read, so I have no clue ;_;

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

that sucks. Kujaku is my THE one time favourite genki, mysterious character by Clamp. Counting Seishirou.

He's just so... adorable *squees*
No glasses, though, sorry ^_^

I heard RG Veda's gonna be translated to english when they're finished with Tokyo Babylon. Otherwise, you can't read french ?

No, there is RG Veda in Spanish, but it's an old, hard to find edition. It's sold out everywhere, and the edition is expensive and sucky T_T I saw one volume in a comic fair at 10€, and I couldn't buy it because I had already bought all Clover and I was broke.

And there are lots of characters I love that wear no glasses, don't be silly XD

>Oh, i was surprised it would not exist in spanish.
Well, that's sad. Not even on bargain sales or Amazon ? I found amazing things as used books, even if it took me some time. Well, I only completed my own RG veda collection recently myself ^^ and i don't have all the clovers yet.
10€ is very expensive for one manga :(

But your favourite ones all wear glasses admit it :p

Just because I exteriorize more about the miopic ones doesn't mean they all are. I love Fye. And Kakyou.

Amazon is a big no-no without a credit card ;_; I've heard rumours there will be a re-edit, so I'll wait to see if it's true. I've heard crap about the RG Veda edition. For that time, the company was a newbie, and the paper quality was awful: pages would fall out.

I've been stalking bargain shops. I got some X volumes there I didn't have, you know ^_^ They also had some old TB volumes, but I already had the whole collection at the moment.

Let's see if I have enough luck on the next fair.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Kakyou, really ? I never knew.

argh, yes Amazon is evil that way. It doesn't work for me either. (got a card, they just don't like it)

Good luck for your hunt then ! ^_^
