Sorry for totally falling behind with translations and comment replies.

( At this rate, the next big spoiler will be that CLAMP didn't actually write any of Holic or Tsubasa... )

Is his true form Watanuki's, or something else entirely? (Hahaha, Suzaku.) "

epic lol.

Thanks for the spoilers, they get weirder and weirder each week. XD

Yay, more revelations. These made me more confused than ever, but I feel a little bit better about Watanuki now. If he was split into different forms, that should mean that he originally had some kind of existence after all. The Watanuki that we know wasn't supposed to exist; but at least it doesn't seem like he was made up entirely out of thin air either. Oh, and the 'split into different forms' line makes me wonder what Clow Reed's role in all this may be.

>How did I overlook that thing?

Considering the amount of time that the TRC and Holic readers spend on coming up with all kinds of theories and analyses, I find it impressive that this line still is repeated so often among them. XD CLAMP, you are indeed amazing.

Haha, I knew there was a reason why Doumeki had a girl's name. XD

Sakura: No...! My... real name... is Shizuka.

does this mean Watanuki is seme? D:

Feh. Watanuki can pull it off if he wants, bossy little guy.

dark_depth October 9 2008, 14:36:29 UTC

Haha! Point taken. But Shizuka won't go down without a fight. :P

...and I wonder why all I can think of is "BUTTSECKZBUTTSECKZBUTTSECKZ" whenever I watch a wrestling match.

I read starlady38 translation before this, and pretty muvh everything is similar except for one line
"And that his parents sacrificed themselves protecting him in the world that had to be originally. And that because of that he has to remain in this world as well."
"that in the world that should originally have been his parents died protecting him, and that for that reason he must not remain in this world.The difference is quite big, since those 2 affirmations are pretty much complete opposites ( ... )

In regards to your first question, starlady38's translation made me double check that line, but the correct translation is in fact "must not stay". However, the impression I had is that the "must not stay" isn't Watanuki's will, but rather some kind of logic of his world that must be preserved. Though maybe I wouldn't have looked at it that way if my first read through hadn't gone like "Watanuki's parents died protecting themselves"?

I KNEW THE WATCH WAS IMPORTANT. Well, I thought it was Clow's timepiece but still...

I hope Watanuki doesn't disappear! Besides that, didn't Yuuko say that it was half of Doumeki's eyesight and blood that are being used to anchor Watanuki to his current world?

CLAMP please Watanuki deserves better than this he worked so damn hard!!! T_T
