TRC Chapter 183
Man, I haven't been excited enough to blog about a new Tsubasa chapter in ages.
Yuuko! To see Yuuko get hurt makes me really scared. She's the most awesome of awesome characters, and may well be my favourite character in the whole of ever.
Don't die Yuuko, I won't like it if you die!
And Watanuki is out with Kohane-chan so he can't come back to save the day bandage up Yuuko's arm and make her a nice cup of tea.
So I had this theory ages ago that Yuuko was training Watanuki up so he could take over the shop when she dies. Then I stopped believing it with all the talk of the shop being created just for this moment.
But now I can't help but feel that if Yuuko dies or is incapacitated in some way, then Watanuki will be fully primed to help out the Tsubasa gang in the final stages of everything.
Come back Watanuki! It'll make me feel better if you're back in the shop.
A sidenote: I love how the butterfly obi on Yuuko's kimono turns out to be the same butterfly she created when she used those soul-stealing wings to find out where Fei Wang was, way back in xxxHolic. It's these little details that really make CLAMP manga a joy to read.
