CLAMP

 CLAMP, is an all-female Japanese manga artist group.CLAMP originally began as an eleven-member dōjinshi circle named CLAMP Cluster.

Before they began creating original work, the group produced dōjinshi. However, the group stopped dōjinshi and began creating original work; it was at this time they began working on RG Veda.

 Then it began serializing CLAMP's Chobits.CLAMP began writing the two works that tell separate parts of the same overaching plot, xxxHolic followed by Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle.

 Other series like Clover, Kobato, Gate 7 were halted, ongoing or published after.

 I think most of CLAMP works are highly related to originality & fate, 'you can change your fate' & the idea that humans choose their destiny through their own efforts.
Themes like love was rather faint. Although in CLAMP's romantic works, presence of doujinshi & bishounen had more popularity among readers~~

CLAMP gave tons of inspirations & ideas. the BEST REFERENCE of all.
