In this Tokyo Babylon Post Cards
Book you will find 27 post cards, which are all presented here. You
may have seen some of these from the 7 volumes of manga and the Art Collection
Album of Tokyo Babylon. Tokyo Babylon is a tragic story in which Subaru
and Seishirou eventuallly become real enemies because of the death
of Subaru's twin sister, Hokuto. Their fights continue in Clamp's other
title, X, and still the two characters bring us tears... Tokyo Babylon
is one of the early works of CLAMP, and many CLAMP fans love its story.
Although there are a lot of magic involved, the various short episodes
do have some moral behind them, making Tokyo Babylon the most meaningful
story among all of CLAMP's works so far. By the way, the passage that appears
behind the character on the cover (same for other 7 volumes of Tokyo Babylon)
is Genesis 11 from the Bible, which, if you haven't yet known, tells the story
of the Tower of Babel.
