bie liao:
If it was something only Sakura could do, maybe that would be okay, though. I mean, her helping out means she's PART of it, now.

I agree. I can't wait until some explaining comes from him. He's said about...five lines this whole entire time. Whoo. The random background people (sorry X/whatever else they're from fans, that's what they are to me) say more than him. I wanna know more about what he is and what he's after now.

--- Quote from: Emiko on September 13 2006, 11:24 am ---I hope that's right. Because Kuro should really pay for his own wish.

I agree- Kurogane has to pay for his own wish.
Here's what I figure for the rundown of the wish situation, since it's confusing:
1- Kurogane wanted to save Fai's life. Subaru wanted water for the reservoir.
2- Yuuko says that it would be too expensive for Kurogane to wish to save Fai's life.
3- Yuuko then has Kurogane wish for the water.
4- Yuuko then tells Subaru to give his blood to Fai (for Kurogane's sake) to pay Kurogane for making Subaru's wish for him.
5- Kamui refuses to let Subaru give Fai his blood, and instead gives his own blood to Fai. Therefore, Subaru does not have to pay any price for the wish that was originally his. (Will Subaru then be in debt to Kamui?)
So Kurogane still owes for the water, since the water has been delivered. Unless Sakura is paying for the water, which doesn't make any sense.
Hira:
Okay, think of this in a simpler, real-world term.
When you were a kid, let's say you want ice cream, but you don't have the money.
So...
You turn to your mommy/daddy (or both, who knows) and ask THEM for money.
Technically, you are the one who wants the ice cream, you should be paying for it, but someone else is doing it for you.
I think that concept applies to what Sakura is doing for Kurogane. As long as someone or something can afford to pay that price, it really shouldn't matter who does it.
Capella:
Show contentI think Sakura could pay for the water by that logic, but since wishes are more personal thing than ice cream, I can see why people would think that that feels wrong.

Well, yeah, you do that when you're a kid. But... Sakura is not Kurogane's father. And Kurogane is fully capable of paying for the water or Yuuko wouldn't have told him to pay for the water. So why would he need to go to Sakura to pay for the wish? xd
And Kurogane is not giving Sakura anything for paying for the water, which he would have to do if she were paying for the water. The reason he has to pay for the water in the first place is because he made a deal with Subaru . This is all about Yuuko granting wishes for proper prices- everyone must pay the proper price for what they receive.
Edit: Think of it this way: Subaru wanted ice cream. Kurogane agreed to pay for Subaru's ice cream. In exchange, Subaru had to give Kurogane his manga. It does matter who pays for what- if someone pays the price for you, you owe them in return; it's not a free ride.
