I apologize for the delay. My sleeping schedule just won't stay put. T_T

'Housewife' was what I was thinking about Watanuki throughout the entire scene. It was cute and dorky. I love it when moments between the two happen where food is involved.

As for Kohane I agree with you. If I was her, I'd offer to work in the shop in exchange for guidance and teachings. I certainly wouldn't go back to her mother.

I hope this arc is over soon. Bring back Himawari, CLAMP!

You're right, I think the same way. Thanks for translation!

Pages 9-14: You know, if -I- were in Kohane's situation, I'd probably be asking to work at the shop instead. If given a choice between going back to a psychotic mother and staying somewhere I can get guidance in the natural and supernatural departments, spend time with my only friend and have a cute black manjuu to cheer me up? You bet I wouldn't be going back.

If my mother was a psychopath? I'd probably do the same thing but look back on it and hate myself for the rest of my life knowing I had a chance to save my mother but chose to save my own ass instead.

 Beyond that I can’t really say much, there’s probably an element of real me in there  Micheal, have you ever heard somebody’s interpretation of your lyrics and thought “Steady on - it’s just a song.

All it's really showing is how deeply Kohane loves her mother. We're only getting the picture of her mother as a psycho, but Kohane remembers how she used to be, and just wants that person to have happiness.

I have issues with my own mother as well (not quite this extreme), so I don't know that I can say I'd do the same if I was in Kohane's shoes, but I think it's an admirable quality nonetheless. =]
