Release

Clover was first serialized in Shueisha's magazine Bouquet between 1997[2] and 2000. It was transferred to Cookie,[3] being published from 2000 to 2006 on it. In 2006, another Shueisha magazine, Chorus (now Cocohana), began serializing the manga;[2] it lasted until April 2010.[4] All 91 individual chapters were collected by Shueisha into 24 tankōbon volumes,[2][4] published between July 25, 1997, and January 25, 2011.[5][6] From November 18, 2008, to August 17, 2012, the series was republished in 13 bunkoban volumes.[7][8]

The manga, which sold over 9.2 million copies in Japan,[9] has also been published in Italy by Star Comics,[10] in South Korea by Haksan,[11] and in Taiwan by Sharp Point Press.[12] It has spawned a sequel series, Clover Trèfle (クローバー trefle(トレフル), Kurōbā Torefuru), which started to be published on June 28, 2012, in Cocohana.[2][13] Its first tankōbon volume was released on January 25, 2014,[14] and, as of December 25, 2019, ten volumes of Clover Trèfle have been released in Japan.[15] Clover Trèfle was licensed in South Korea by Haksan.[16] Related works Little Clover (リトル・クローバー, Ritoru kurōbā) and Green Green Green were released into a single volume on October 17, 2014.[17]
