Chapter 120

--- Quote from: Rekall ---Everyone is expecting that it's real!Syaoran but you're right it *could* be Seishirou who's arriving! Or Ashura-ou! (although I doubt that Ashura-ou could get there that quick but it's possible).
--- End quote ---
Actually, I think it is real!Syaoran that is coming through the dimension. After Kamui and Fay got out of the water, Kamui says, "Somebody is coming, from another world. It's not that Hunter. There is one more Syaoran, coming." (Pages 10 and 11). In Chapter 119, the seal on the eye got broken, so now the real Syaoran is using dimensional magic to go to our Syaoran's body. After Syaoran comes, I'm assuming that yin-yang ball was our Syaoran (the clone), who got removed from the body, and tossed aside. Fay picks this up.

Excuse me for straying from discussing Chapter 120, but I thought I'd pick up from here:
--- Quote from: SailorYue-chan ---as to fai's power, he IS pretty powerful. he needed a tato to control his magic, and he was able to cross dimensions by himself, AND he created a living being(Something, i think that was said in CCS, requires ALOT of power to do.
--- End quote ---
I have no doubt that Fay is very powerful. As for the uses of that tattoo, I cannot really say because I need to look at the original Japanese raws (which I don't have) for that chapter. In the scanlations, it was translated so that the tattoo was "the core of his powers", but that is very open to interpretation. Whether it enhances his powers (I doubt it) or restrains/controls it, just the translation alone is insufficient.
However, as powerful as Fay is, I don't think he is Yuuko and Clow's calibre; maybe he has potential for more, but even he acknowledges that his power is limited and he cannot jump dimensions more than once (hence, why he appeared in Yuuko's shop).

Secondly, your theory about the clone and the real Syaoran is a bit off. The real and clone look alike, in my opinion. Also, the real!Syaoran isn't in an unchanging state. He's still growing. To me, he doesn't look like a kid in the tube.
In reality, clones are suppose to grow the same time as humans do, but I don't know if CLAMP took this into consideration or not. With your theory, you're saying that at the same time they clone real!Syaoran, the clone was immediatelly that age right?

Oh, I know. I am just saying it isn't hard to see why people drew the conclusion that he ate the eye.
Clone!Syaoran wasn't the same age, but he had the same appearance immediately. If you look here http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j147/melipon/cloned.jpg, from chapter 119, you can see that the clone was the same size as real!Syaoran, and we can assume that he had just been recently cloned because it was before real!Syaoran was fully sealed. I don't think Fei Wong cloned him when real!Syaoran was born and then let them both hang out for 9 or 10 years before sealing real!Syaoran....
And I remembered it wrong, but real!Syaoran is definitely a smaller child for quite a while in the tube, because in various places we see him smaller than clone!Syaoran. He started growing later though, before he opened his eyes (Yuuko says "He has awakened" and we see his eyes opening) and before he breaks out of the tube.
For example, during the Shurano/Sharano arc, we see this:
http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j147/melipon/sidebyside.jpg
There is a size difference and real!Syaoran's face is rounder and more kid-like. He also looks the same as he does when we see in the later chapters when Fei Wong is sealing him, and he is a child there still.
Then we also have this, which I put side by side
http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j147/melipon/beforeafter.jpg
He looks taller in the later chapters.
We know that time has passed because clone!Syaoran grew at the same rate that Sakura did, and the other characters aged at an appropriate pace in Clow as well and that throughout that time as we can see, real!Syaoran has remained the same size until recently and clone!Syaoran had grown already.
Also, even in clone!Syaoran's dreams he grew, as seen here:
http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j147/melipon/syaoran1.jpg
http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j147/melipon/syaoran2.jpg
So real!Syaoran used to look like a little kid until fairly recently in the Tsubasa timeline, and now they're the same size:

Phew. Anyway, I hope that clears up what I was trying to say
bie liao:
I have no idea if someone has said this already, but why can Real!Syaoran control Clone!Syaoran? Does sharing a soul allow him to manipulate Clone!Syaoran? If Clone!Syaoran ever figures it out, will he be able to do the same to Real!Syaoran?
This has almost nothing to do with the plotline, but I'm a curious person who's watching AMV Hell 3. Sue me.

I think that's it. Since he had the power to give him his eye, he probably had the power to control it as well.
