That death glare is going to give Sakura some SERIOUS nightmares, if she realizes what happened, fully. I SO hope she gets all Post-early-volume 7-Subaru-esque, and they have to some how save her.... Aww, angsty luff! <3

Now Kurogane's going to try and pwn Original-but-formerly-known-as-Yin-Syaoran! DX And he seems like the TOTAL good guy, now! D: Don't you all wish you claimed him before me? :XD: *hides him under bed* 

Yeah, 'AAAAAHHHH' is a good way to put it, Ashlee. :XD:

That's right, Kuro...no sword for you, even if you want to stab that Syaoran with the bat symbol, cause you have to hold on to your lover Fai.

And finally Sakura's awake. I hope she'll do... something. That is if she's not too traumatized and yelling everybody's name.

Real Syaoran really should have changed his clothes first...
Show content
Hnn...can anyone translate what real Syaoran said that made Kurogane look at Fai like that? I'm guessing its something about Fai's heroic attempt to put the copied yin-yang heart back to clone Syaoran, but I'm a fangirl and I want the exact translation!
On the other hand, Kuro asked for his sword, but was he really going to attack real Syaoran? He seems to be the more sane of the Syaorans, anyway.
Highlight - Thankfully, Fai's magic seems to be  a little less useless than thelast chapter

One question. Wasn't Fai holding the yin-yang heart? How come it seems to come out of Clone Syaoran???
Title: Re: Chapter 122
Post by: Pikari on July 19 2006, 11:08 am
Tentative summary on Syaoran's explanation since I just read it: Real Syaoran says the yin-yang is half of his heart, which ended up being returned to Syaoran through Fai's eye that he stole. Apparantly the reason Fai was so willing to let EvilSyao take his eye. But RealSyao says once the seal had been broken it couldn't be returned, and that Fai should have known that, but he risked it anyway. Awww.... XD

 Aww, and RealSyao tries to reason with his evil twin by telling him his feelings for Sakura weren't from his (the yinyang) heart, but from the clone himself.

OMG Fai!!! ;_; Thats just so...so...I didn't think it was possible for me to fangirl him even more. I'm glad there's a sort of explanation why a supposedly powerful wizard went down so easily by a clone brat though. BUt really, he LET Cloney take his eye? Why am I having Tokyo Babylon flashbacks? Fai=Subaru. heh :dodge:

Interesting that Real Syaoran is willing to reason with his evil twin. Hmm...merging or death of clone Syaoran seems to be less likely now. Maybe in the end they just seperate ways and each have their own happy endings?

-begins grinning insanely at RealSyao and his total hotness-  I always thought he was the cooler one (felt horrible when I didn't know CloneSyao was a clone) and am so glad I felt that way now.


 Aww, and RealSyao tries to reason with his evil twin by telling him his feelings for Sakura weren't from his (the yinyang) heart, but from the clone himself.

-twitching a little as she types this-

I'm scared to ask, really, but doesn't that mean that since EvilSyao is now completely psychotic and with bad food choices, and RealSyao obviously doesn't share his feelings, that Sakura/Syaoran no longer exists?  Or is there hope for the crazy fangirls like myself that since RealSyao got his heart back, and he shares EvilSyao's feelings...?  Wouldn't that be horrible if he didn't want to fall in love with Sakura?

Yay, Kuro's still holding Fai! Cuuute! And I think Syaoran's little speech is probably going to redeem Fai in Kuro's eyes a little. That look was... uuffff what's the word...aaah... good. *is shot*

Y'know what? I'm friggin tired from my shift. I'll post more coherently tomorrow.

Airashii, if you want a summary to hold you over until you can see them...

Show content
Hmmm, well basically Syaoran took the yin-yang thing into his body and got his eye back, and then Pikari already explained what he said about Fai, tried to reason with Clonie,  and Clone!Syaoran and Real!Syaoran fight. Sakura wakes up and yells a lot. Kuro sees the bat-symbol on Real!Syao's shirt and asks Mokona for his sword, but Clone!Syao uses Fai's magic so that Mokona spits out HIS sword instead, and he gets that and it's sort of surrounded by Fai's magic. Then the chapter ends with Sakura yelling at her rabid boyfriend(s).

Oh my .....gosh!!  O_o  That was definitely worth that two week wait...  Ahahah!!

So, according to Pikari, Clone!Syaoran's feelings for Sakura was his own all along.  It wasn't the ying/yang seal's doing.  What?   I'm confused now a bit.  If that's so....   O__________O  How's that going to get back our Syaoran!?    

Poor Real!Syaoran.  He's been trying his best only to get blasted by Fai's magic, plus, his sword (which use to be Kurogane's).   Ending with Sakura shouting, "Syaoran-kun!!".  

That was definitely a cool battle though.  Jump-kick (CCS style) vs. kick (Seishirou style).     Hmm... so Real!Syaoran would probably not be able to get feelings/memories for Sakura, eh?

Welllllll I think real!Syaoran is from Clow, since Syaoran and Sakura' s souls are bound together and there was no other Syaoran on Clow, after all. And that's where Fei-Wong Reed put Syaoran so that he'd meet up with Sakura, so real!Syaoran is probably the Syaoran from Clow, otherwise why would Fei-Wong Reed risk the real Syaoran showing up while Clonie was around?

Also, I think I might be one of the few people to think that real!Syaoran being from CCS would be lame -_-

Thanks for the tip!

"That" Sakura? Oh no, you don't think that there's another Sakura for Real!Syaoran whose probably his sister or something? Because THAT. WOULD. BE. SICK. And knowing CLAMP, not totally unexpected...
Speaking of her, what will happen if and when an Other!(possibly kick-butt)Sakura shows up? Probably using Clow Cards? (not that I believe that Real!Syaoran is from CCS world [I think it'slame too], but if he can do CCS Syaoran's fighting style, I wouldn't be shocked if the Cards show up. Probably mixed with a feather--oh man, too many plotbunnies! :sweatdrop:)

It'd be cool if CLAMP did something with the cards! However,since it looks like Real!Syaoran's gonna stick around for a while, having it turn out that he's a character from an already pre-existing series would be rather...whassa word...

...Well, as the Tsubasa anime shows, re-using characters isn't always the best path to thread. Though CCS Syaoran is cooler than Tsubasa Syaoran, in my opinion anyway. Still, yeah, not likin' the idea.
Title: Re: Chapter 122
Post by: bie liao on July 19 2006, 01:50 pm
Uhh...

Show content
What if he's not from Clow, and what if Fei Wong took him from another world so that no one in Clow would recognize him and be like "oh, look, there's that kid from a few weeks ago".  After all, RealSyaoran had to have parents, or relatives, or someone he was living with, if he lived in Clow.  Wouldn't they see him with Fujitaka and take him back?

And if he's from another world, then he could be talking about another Sakura that he fell in love with in that world.  I'm not saying CCS, by any means, cause I have a feeling that would be completely weird and would mean that Syaoran mysteriously disappeared for a long time from China/Japan/wherever he was.  Which we know he didn't.

Sharing the same soul, I think its plausible that they might share fighting styles with CCS Syaoran.  Maybe.  Ah, these are just ideas.

Maybe Syaoran was an orphan to begin with, or maybe Fei-Wong Reed killed his parents. I mean, it's certainly possible for real!Syaoran to have been on another world, but I'm leaning more towards Clow.

I know.  I want him to stick around too!   I want to know his past!   :D   Speaking of parents, I've been trying to think of why Real!Syaoran would end up in FWR's place.   We know FWR "captured" him, but what if, FWR killed Real!Syaoran's parents in order to "bait" Syaoran into coming to his place?   Just a random theory thought.   O_o   

Other than that, it would make sense if Real!Syaoran came from Clow kingdom's world.  It wouldn't necessarily be Clow kingdom but other countries on Clow's world.   Then again, back when CopiedHeart!Syaoran was travelling countries with Fujitaka, someone would've recognized Syaoran.   So, if that doesn't work, Real!Syaoran would be from another dimension (that was related to FWR of cuorse because of the "bat symbol").   Maybe, a dimension that had no Sakura!?  O___O

Am I the only one disappointed by this chapter?...

Show content
The previous chapters were all actionpacked and angsty. But this... Kinda made me yawn. I didn't gasp once.
For some reason, Yin Syaoran looks much cuter than the Syaoran we know. Perhaps because he's younger, I dunno. He seems younger, anyway.

As for the "That Sakura" comment... It's obvious he knows another Sakura. And it's obvious he loves her. (eh, CLAMP?)
So... Do you all think that that other Sakura is going to show up eventually? To help her Syaoran out? That'd be cute. At the ending of Tsubasa, we'd have two Sakura/Syaoran couples, and one Kurogane/Fai couple. ^_^

I am going to spazz if Kurogane murders the original Syaoran, because of that bat symbol.
Kurogane: You're related to Batman! DIE!
Syaoran: *gets stabbed* I didn't choose to wear these ugly clothes! I was captured by him! Nggh... *bleeds*
Kurogane: ... Ah, whoops. Sorry bout that.
Syaoran: No, no. It's an honest mistake. It can happen to anyone. *dies*

Well, I'm not disappointed in this chapter one bit.

Show content
Sakura waking up is a good thing. And real!Syaoran is awesome, and got the yin-yang back. Which I like as well, though I wonder why he's trying to reason with the clone, since he ought to know that it has no heart. If the clone's feelings for Sakura come from him, not the heart...does this mean we'll have to get normal clone!Syaoran back? I so hope CLAMP doesn't pull the "the power of his love for Sakura can return him normal!" thing since it makes no sense if he has no heart. If it's Sakura's love that returns him to normal, that I could take since Sakura's heart is incredibly magically powerful. Look at what mere pieces of it can do.

I also think that real!Syaoran being from CCS would be horribly lame. He doesn't act like CCS!Syaoran anyway, not to mention that it doesn't make sense in the CCS timeline. And I don't really like CCS!Syaoran. I think he's probably from another world. Maybe if they get clone!Syaoran back to normal, they can send real!Syaoran back to his world and (hopefully) his Sakura? I could see that happening.

Doesn't surprise me that Fai let clone!Syaoran eat his eye. And that eye-socket really needs to be attended to. Could Kurogane, you know, let the Syaorans deal with each other for a few minutes and take Fai up to the X characters, who I imagine might have some medical materials somewhere? The answer is no, but it would take load off of my mind. Besides, Kurogane saw the bat sigil. I think good things shall come of this.

I hope so too. But I think that might happen a bit. One of Sakura powers is to talk to things that don't have their own hearts or something like that. I think Syaoran told it to kuro, when they were being attack by the wind.

Nope, not really. I'm a little disappointed, but I wasn't totally bored. It was certainly not as exciting as the last two chapters.

More Kuro holding Fai was lovely! Though I've never been really interested in Syaoran, maybe that's why their clash wasn't as exciting for me, but I am sort of coming around to like him these days. And I'm glad Kuro didn't get up and fight Syaoran. Just because then he'd leave Fai everything would get too complicated. The three-way fight might have worked in Star Wars, but I'm not too sure about here...

I was just wondering.......
Why did FWR choose Syaoran?

Ne, probably because Syaoran is Sakura's "soul mate" and he would be the best choice for someone to be able to get close to her and have the conviction to gather all her feathers.

Fay!  I'm sorry I ever thought that you could be evil and would betray the group at some stage!  I had had my suspicions for Outo arc onwards about whether his intentions were good or not, but this arc clears them completely!  He LET Syao take his eye, even though he suspected it wouldn't work, to try and save Syao's 'soul'...Fay, you deserve several huggles (fortunatly Kuro is still at hand for that!).

And *KuroFayfangirlmoment* it looked like Kuro was holding Fay closer later in this chapter.  *squeal*  Sorry, had to get that out of the way!

I, too, am surprised that Sakura woke this early.  I thought she would miss most of the angst (because she's Sakura-chan and sweet and innocent etc), but Clamp surprises me again!  Does that mean my beloved Subaru will wake up soon?  Please?  Not that Sub/Sei is my OTP or anything...

Quote
Kamui is still...sitting there. Doing nothing. He wins at voyeurism.

And that quote wins the internet!  I had a giggle at that!  But then, I wouldn't move away from Subaru if I could help it either.  Unless I was looking for soup and a hairbrush so I could pet and feed Subaru when he wakes up.  Two Syaorans fighting is nothing compared to Subaru in a cocoon.

And Kuro's expression when he hears what Fay did...CANONFay just keeps surprising him, doesn't he!

Now onto serious plot/theory speculation:

I find it suspicious that Syaoran (who has been quoted as Clow's descendant) has ended up with Fujitaka (Clow's reincarnation).  I am starting to believe the TRC Clow is Eriol theory.  That would mean that Syaoran COULD be a descendant of Clow's Clow (who may have been around several years ago), Sakura could be the daughter of Clow by being Eriol's (Clow's reincarnation) daughter and Fujitaka may have been created JUST to look after clone!Syaoran when he was released (what with Clow being precognitive).  I don't believe that people would neccesarilly recognise Syaoran if the original WAS from Clow world-children change quickly and maybe FWR wiped out the entire Li clan in Clow world so no one would come after him.

It would also mean that Syaoran and Sakura aren't that closely related (which is at the front of MOST people's minds!).

Okay, that's enough of that!

Can't wait for complete scans and translation!

I wasnt disappointed with this chapter at all. Yeah, it lacked the impact that alot of the previous one's have had recently but I think it was fairly full of plot progression - Sakura woke up, Real!Syaoran and Clone!Syaoran fought the Kuro/Fai holding continued etc

It'd be good if Kurogane held Fai a little closer - although in this chapter I think he did seem to be, slightly - considering they're perched on that fairly narrow.. cocoon.. branchy.. thing. But I think that's asking a little too much from CLAMP x'3

Teehee. That splash page.. I swear it looks like Kuro's staring at Fai's butt
Annd.. the yin-yang thing looks like it appears from Syaoran's chest.. but didnt Fai still have it in his hand? o.o *ponders*

I think Jenx mentioned it on livejournal, but I wonder if Fai giving away his eye is going to impress Kuro or not? It's more like Fai not caring about his own life again.. or at least putting Syaoran and Sakura before himself.. So do you think Kuro-tan'll see it like that, or do you think ..he'll react as most people thought he would after reading chapter 121? D:

What Zneuse mentioned that I said on LJ- I don't think Fai's tyring to IMPRESS Kurogane, but I really don't think Kurogane's going to be very happy about what he did. In fact, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it ended in a ch 112-esque confrontation when Fai wakes up. This is, of course, assuming Kuro-tan's not too wrapped up in his own angst about not being able to exact vengence on the guy wearing the bat symbol.
...Granted, I'm not sure that lack of a sword is going to stop him from trying, but we'll find out next chapter. XD

I was just wondering.......
Why did FWR choose Syaoran?
Ne, probably because Syaoran is Sakura's "soul mate" and he would be the best choice for someone to be able to get close to her and have the conviction to gather all her feathers.
Possibly also because both of them are connected to Clow. Syaoran being his ancestor, and Fei Wang being connected... somehow.

Ah no, I didnt mean that I thought Fai was going out of his way to impress Kurogane - just that I wondered if Kuro would be happy Fai actually did something (I doubt this, because it ended in him getting hurt anyway and Kuro wouldnt be happy about that ;3 ) or if he would be annoyed at Fai's continuing lack of worry about his own life.
And yush, I agree/hope that we'll probably get some 112ish angst or, if not that, some KuroxFai fluff when Fai wakes up. After Kurogane sorts out the whole homgSyaoranhasabatlogoonhisshirt problem.

And thankyouu Pikari for the translation .o. The yin-yang thing makes sense to me now! Fai tried to transfer it back to Syaoran through his own eye (like Real!Syaoran did in the first place), when Syao ripped it out to eat his magic, right 8D? Aaand that's why Fai didnt try and stop him when the clone took it.
So yush, <3Pikari

I don't think that's why people are hating on Sakura, I think the reason is because 122 chapters into the story she hasn't really DONE anything other than win games of chance and the Dragonfly Race. Everyone is just getting frustrated cos they want her to do something really awesome instead of just being there all the time.

And this is why, CLAMP leaves it cliff-hanging so we'll have to wait like hungry dogs for the next chapter.   :D    More action should be next chapter.  This was only the beginning of the Syaoran x Syaoran fight.  As CLAMP states at the end of the chapter:  --Next issue, who will be the victor!?

I have to agree that Sakura is still sort of useless (in terms of really pitching in) but since we're farrrr from the end of Tsubasa, her moment will hopefully shine sometime soon in the future.......right CLAMP?  Sakura still did do something.  I mean, she wasn't a total living human "doll" or "empty shell".

Thank you Pikari for the translations!  ^o^  Everything makes sense now.

So, R!Syaoran was able to see through his clone's eye after all, thus, that's how he knows Sakura!   Ahh.  So, it was that obvious.  I see.    When FWR was stating that R!Syaoran didn't make it in time, I have a feeling he was saying that in a happy tone of voice telling by his expression.  o_o

Wait, what if the "seal" can come back?  Even though, it looked like it dissipated into the air, what if it went somewhere just like the feathers?   Suddenly, the thought of "Pinocchio" comes into mind when thinking of Clone!Syaoran.  >_>

The ?first? hint that R!Syaoran could see (in whatever form - now we find out it was the most "conventional" one (if seeing through your eye that is in the head of your clone can be called conventional) what C!Syaoran saw would be ch. 65 in Shura during the fight with Kurogane when R!Syaoran took over for a few moments.

Sakura's exclamations of names are a little repetitive and despite the severity of the situation, for example page 4 would make a nice parody along the lines of "Oh, did I miss anything important?" *innocent wide-eyed smile while looking from short-of-one-eye-with-blood-streaming-down-his-face Fai to blood-streaked-cheeked-and-blue-eye Syaoran to the otherwise ragged Kurogane* "Did I?"

It's just hard to put her in more serious situations because that would corrupt her innocence  :\  They always put her out when things get too bad. I'm even surprised she's awake now to see all this mess, but I imagine she will have something everything to do with Syaoran snapping out of it.

I agree she was more interesting in CCS and that she doesn't get nearly enough to do in Tsuasa, but CCS was also a lot more innocent and cute than Tsubasa is. Nobody ever had an eye ripped out and eaten in that  >__>;;

Thank you to all the scanning/translating/scanlating people!

I get what all of you are saying about Sakura not doing anything, though she doesn't bother/bore me. Particularly not by shouting Syaoran's name - She'll need to do that for more than an entire manga volume to get on my nerves and beat Yasha's record.  Then again, I like almost all of CLAMP's characters, so not much bothers me.

I wonder if CLAMP will actually conclude this fight in the next chapter? Or are they just teasing us?

*Also agrees that Fai's blood indefinitely flows upwards.*

The same principles operating on clone!Syaoran's shirt are obviously affecting Fai's blood.

True...  You got a point there, but, that wasn't R!Syaoran taking over.   ^_o   That was the clone's true nature taking over.   C!Syaoran can only "see" through his clone's blind eye.   He can't control his clone.

Now if the real & clone Syaoran merge, what's gonna happen to the Sakura from the R!Syaoran's world? There might not be a Sakura from R!Syaoran's world, but I'm just assuming there is. Seeing R!Syaoran's expression when he sees Sakura banging on the glass-wall thingy & shouting, looks like he's saying "why are you ignoring her, cloney!" So I guess he should have some feelings toward his Sakura. Afterall, they should be having the same soul.

But then again, R!Syaoran was just a little kid when he was kidnapped, right? So I don't know whether he's met his Sakura. It could also be that he's giving that expression because he sees though his right eye what's been happening, & he knows that C!Syaoran & Sakura likes each other...

Poor Fye though.  He's such a great guy, he knew the seal couldn't be repaired but he tried anyways to do it to save Clonie.

It sucks though that Sakura is back and not Subaru though.  I'm thinking though that Sakura since was able to return because of her "most preicous person" maybe Subaru needs his most precious person nearby/in the same world before he can awaken as well, which means Seishirou better hurry up and get there before the gang leaves this world since I want the conclusion to that plot.

I don't think Sakura's personality is any different  :o  Syaoran is different from CCS Syaoran because he's nicer and sweeter and not so grumpy/harsh, but Sakura has always been kind and naive and innocent and kind of ditzy.  I'm not saying she's CCS Sakura, I'm just saying she's pretty much the same.  (And you're welcome  XD)

I agree about Sakura.  If you look at the beginning of TRC before she lost her memories I really found that Sakura was a lot like her CCS counterpart and during the times where she actually does something during their journey to help out (specifically in Piffle) you can see a slight emergence of that personality.

I'm in the "don't bash Sakura" camp myself. Her time is coming, I can feel it.
Why is everyone so keen on the clone coming back to himself? As far as I'm concerned he's not anything anymore, and his memories and hopefully feeling are in REAL!Syaoran.
I think the next chapter is crucial to finding out if he's CCS!Syaoran or not. If he starts scowling, saying "Kusou" and turning up his nose, then we have ourselves the real macoy.

Personality wise he's a little closer than Clone!Syao was I think, but I'm pretty sure its not the same one. The timelines don't work for one. Plus if he loved Sakura he probably would've reacted different to Sakura-in-bubble.

Also Real!Syaoran said that though he watched through Clone's eye, Clone's feelings for Sakura where his own. So Real!Syaoran doesnt love Sakura.....?

Now if the real & clone Syaoran merge, what's gonna happen to the Sakura from the R!Syaoran's world? There might not be a Sakura from R!Syaoran's world, but I'm just assuming there is. Seeing R!Syaoran's expression when he sees Sakura banging on the glass-wall thingy & shouting, looks like he's saying "why are you ignoring her, cloney!" So I guess he should have some feelings toward his Sakura. Afterall, they should be having the same soul.

But then again, R!Syaoran was just a little kid when he was kidnapped, right? So I don't know whether he's met his Sakura. It could also be that he's giving that expression because he sees though his right eye what's been happening, & he knows that C!Syaoran & Sakura likes each other...

I think I agree with the very last part of your second paragraph.  ^_^   It's still uncertain exactly if there's "another" Sakura yet.   I'm still thinking "not" for some funny reason which has something related to Clow kingdom Sakura.

Once again, I'm going to have say this.   CCS!Syaoran does not equal Real!Syaoran.   The Tsubasa characters have no connection to their original manga counterparts!   I wonder how many people does it take to convince this fact?   ^_____^;;    They may be similar in soul but can be very different too.  

Also Real!Syaoran said that though he watched through Clone's eye, Clone's feelings for Sakura where his own. So Real!Syaoran doesnt love Sakura.....?

Hahah...   They were meant to be!   Woahhh...    :keke:

Yeah, I'm curious too how that is going to come out.  I mean, if the clone's feelings for Sakura were real, where did they go then?   From the looks of it, to me, the clone's body is already in a wreck with two different eye colors and a broken arm.   R!Syaoran's "healthy" body seems like the best candidate for those feelings, right?  But, in the end, CLAMP had to twist all the people's theories of two Syaorans merging into one. (Regardless of whether you're for the Clone x Real or Clow x Real merge.)       

 We shall see what happens after R!Syaoran got blasted by that flame.   :D

I just realized something.  We had a hint all along from xxxHolic that Syaoran would be able to see what's Clonie's been doing and no one picked up on it.  'Holic spoilers ahead (just in case)
Show content
since Doumeki can see through the eye he gave Watanuki, it makes sense that Syaoran could see what was happening through his own eye.  Since Doumeki only gave half an eye that would explain why he can only see things for high spirits (or whatever reason they gave for him only seeing things part of the time) and since Clonie had an entire eye Syaoran probably saw everything experienced thus far.

Ha ha I can just see Real!Syaoran sitting in his bubble for 10 years trying desperatly to figure out how to change the channel on his magic eye.

*Sitting there watching Young!Clone making breakfast*
R!Syao: ".... I dunno what FWR's plan is but I've been watching this kid for 5 years and he doesnt (*^&^%^$ DO ANYTHING!"
Then R!Syao-kun meets up with Kakyou, Hinoto, Kotori, Hokuto, TRC!Tomoyo, TRC!Subaru, Watanuki and Kazahaya where they have dream tea party and discuss how screwed up their life and relationships were/are/will be.

After reading that, I couldn't help stop cracking up!     For 7 years, R!Syaoran would be stuck staring into the clone's right eye which acts like a TV with only one channel!   If I was him, I'd probably go nuts after being in the tube for one month with nothing else to "look" at.   :D   

 It's a good thing that you brought that up.   Also, he would have to watch his clone do all his morning chores, being taught by Fujitaka, go bathroom (o_o), go play with Sakura, go to different countries with Fujitaka, make breakfast, lunch, dinner, meet Seishirou, and so on.   He probably doesn't get that bored of it because he's learning from a new perspective.   A new life that doesn't involve magic at all.  Also, he learns about love in a way, even though, "the feelings" aren't his own.

Considering there is/was eye-eating and a swordfight going on outside, she would have to be able to say or do something pretty amazing to stop the ?soon-to-be-three-way battle and not get hurt.

Hey, lay off Sakura  ;____;;;;  She's been useful before. She helped stop that tornado thing on that furry-creature planet and she was able to talk to that ghost to get her feather back and lead them out of the flooding castle.

It's just hard to put her in more serious situations because that would corrupt her innocence  :\  They always put her out when things get too bad. I'm even surprised she's awake now to see all this mess, but I imagine she will have something everything to do with Syaoran snapping out of it.

I agree she was more interesting in CCS and that she doesn't get nearly enough to do in Tsuasa, but CCS was also a lot more innocent and cute than Tsubasa is. Nobody ever had an eye ripped out and eaten in that  >__>;;

'sword was the breaking point'?  That comment wins.

I'm also on the 'don't bash Sakura' side of things.  She was unconcious for Hanshin, groggy for Kouryu<sp>, helped in Spirit, was groggy for Lake country,  was cute and fluffy in Outo, helped in Idol country, admitidly did little in Shurano/Sharano (except kiss Syao's eye), got her own feather in Piffle, noone other than Syaoran did a lot in Rekord until Fay went all pretty and magical and Sakura has only just woken in Tokyo (after getting her own feather again).  Now that she's starting to stay awake (normally) for worlds she tends to do more, and now Clamp has exposed her to some potential Angst! they may let her in on the main storyline more.

Plus I love virtually all Clamp characters...wait...nope, can't think of one I dislike.  I love ALL Clamp's characters.

I also think that Sakura will be REALLY important/interesting in the final arc of Tsubasa (when it appears).

I don't think the Syaoran's will merge or that Clone!Syaoran will be replaced.  I think Real!Syaoran pointing out that Clone!Syaoran's feelings for Sakura were his own has guarenteed Clone!Syaoran's survival and his return to seminormal

I think that C/Syaoran doesn't have any heart now...from what I understood.

Anyway, I think Sakura WILL do something great with her power. BTW, does she already have all her memories?

I was reading Tsubasa vol.5 chapter 33 (http://groups.msn.com/TsubasaReservoirChroniclesOnlineManga/chapter033.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=796) and well, I think Touya suspected that Syaoran wasn't human, he said that he felt 'something off'.
And on Tsubasa vol.1 page 33 of my DelREy adaptation, Touya says to Yukito that Syaoran is the one that's destined for Sakura and Yukito says that even though that is true, they will have to face adversity like they've never seen. So maybe the C/Syaoran could return to normal, or is it the R/Syaoran that's destined for her?  :surprised:

Though I am mainly guided here by the "Fai can't die!" emotion, I would say it is unlikely he would - it would be too repetitive in a way, he already "died" in Oto so it is too "not again!?".
And although I am no expert in wounds or bloodloss but I would think that losing an eye gives you better chances of living than say if your hand or leg was cut off, provided that someone would finally *hint-hint everyone fighting/yelling in the chapter*  tend to the wound.

Personally? I think people are overreacting a little bit. Yes, Fai is bleeding. Yes, it should be stopped...but...technically he's not been bleeding for that long.

For us, we've had five weeks of chapters and breaks so to us it does actually seem like Fai's been bleeding for ages, but really, he can't have been bleeding for more than 5-10 minutes in the 'manga time'. As meliwanwan just said to me: it's not as if he's bleeding uncontrollably either. If he were, there would be blood EVERYWHERE. His face, his neck, all over his face and neck...but instead it appears to be just running down his face. Compared to some of profuse bleeding I've seen (even in just the darn blood test rooms) Fai's bleeding seems...slightly...less than one would expect from having his eye torn out.

Uh...what was my point again? Oh yeah. Sorry. So really, Fai hasn't been bleeding for that long, so there's still a good deal of time to get him sorted out, right?

Yeah, Fai's bleeding probably won't be fatal (after all, no CLAMP character has died of blood loss since...that one guy in the beginning of RG Veda) but it still seems like good idea to get the injured person out of the battlefield.

I like the theory about "memories of the body" and clone!Syaoran's feelings for Sakura. Also the one about Sakura using her ability to talk to...various unusual things to communicate to clone!Syaoran.

Definitely. But I guess we can forgive Kuro for that. He was in a bit of a pinch beforehand. Maybe he'll drag Fai outta there next chapter.

I do not think that any of the bloodvessels going into the eye are even that big to provide enough blood to die of bloodloss (unless you are suffering from hemophilia) - why else has it always been such a widely used torture device in both real life and made up one, the pain is literally a torture but the loss of blood not enough to kill you.

Started thinking of what does C!Syaoran's price show about his feelings for Sakura and the ways to bring him back to some semblance of himself before the seal broke: if the feelings for Sakura were his own and not R!Syaoran's, the "what he (whom we now know as C!Syaoran) valued most " =his relationship with Sakura  could not come from the real one's heart, therefore those powerful emotions must be anchored somewhere else. If Sakura reaches that place there is some chance.

Sakura: Oh, the heat! *'faints'*
*Syaoran and Syaoran simply continue fighting, not noticing a thing*
Sakura: Fine! Be that way! ... Men!
*Kurogane decides to join the fight too. A watermill appears out of nowhere, and the guys start fighting on top of it*
Yeah, that'd be awesome!

As for the fighting in Shura...

It really was R!Syaoran taking over. Our Syaoran was completely concious, so it couldn't have been his clone side, and Syaoran said that his hands were moving on his own, even though R!Syaoran happened to be doing the exact same thing.

Haha...  ^o^   When I was watching that scene in the theater, I wanted to laugh a bit.  Especially when she shouted, "Pirates!!".   Unfortunately, I don't think anyone around me found that funny at all, and I can understand why.   >_<    ^_^  As for the second part of your post....
Show content
It was Clone!Syaoran's "true nature" that was taking over Clone!Syaoran's body.  Real!Syaoran wasn't able to do anything but watch through the clone's right eye.   He has no control over the clone at all.  When we were in the world that contained the book of memory, we find out that "our" Syaoran has no recollection of what his "true natured" did.  When we look back at Real!Syaoran, we realize that he is actually doing something else while the clone's "true nature" was awake.  Therefore, that's how we realize that the clone and the original are not connected at all except by the eye.    ^_0 

I don't think anyone's said this so here i go:

Mokona told Syaoran and Sakura that there are memories of the body too, which means at some level Syaoran might still love Sakura even without his heart, which may be what real syaoran was trying to appeal to when he was the love didn't come from the heart? It may at least be enough for Sakura to reach out to when she eventually gets round to doing something useful ;-)

Good remembrance on that.   After all, there's still that quote of "Even if this body should meet its end, these feelings alone will remain in a corner of the world."   I think, it could be possible that it might be similar to the ending of the second CCS movie between Syaoran's memories of his love for Sakura.   >_>

I was of the opinion that the clone and real Syaoran would merge somehow in chapter 120, now I don't know anymore.  I think its possible that clone Syaoran is going to stay. But where will the real Syaoran go? Back to where he originially came from? Which was exactly where by way? What do you think?  :wink:

Personally, I'd rather Fai actually WAKE UP before anybody bandages him up. Even if that's maybe a little mean of me. Though really, he's bleeding but it's not as TERRIBLE as it could be. A bandage might not do much at this point.

Mostly I just want him to wake up. I miss him. I miss him lots. Tsubasa just ain't the same when Fai's playing dead.

Yeah, it isn't the same without Fai.    :(      He's obviously going to be okay.  I can imagine him wearing an eye patch but for the rest of the manga?  I don't think so.

i just thought that maybe syaorans could travels together

Rsyao: please pass the salt, syaoran
Csyao: sure syaoran
sakura: come on, syaorans
R and C syaoran : okay

That scene is a bit freaky to me.   Sakura will have to find a way to call them apart if that happens.   O__________o       Two Syaorans travelling together!?  Isn't that going to break some dimension rule or something of having two of the same people existing on the same plane of reality? (Even if one is a clone, he's still human!)  I mean, it's not that bad of an ideal and makes a good twist but I don't know!  >_<      :sweatdrop: Wait, it's too far into the future to even tell exactly if that's going to happen or not.   C!Syaoran is still out of control with his "original programming".   Oh great.  Just thinking of that reminds me of the movie, "I, Robot".

Edit:  And it just occurred to me in terms of what if, the Syaoran, we've always known since the beginning before his "true nature" came out, gained his own body?   Then, technically, we got three Syaorans who are sitting at that table passing salt around!   Haha....   This is going to be amusing.

I'm shorry if this is a totally weird question, but I'm really missing something here...
RSyaoran gives half of his heart to CSyaoran and spends several years floating in a giant test tube. Then, CSyoran loses that half of heart he was given from RSyoran and Fai picks it up? BUT THEN RSyaoran comes and takes half of CSyoran's heart to comlete his own heart.... The math is all wrong here. Thats three halves...We need four... So, did RSyaoran give half of his heart to CSyaoran and CSyaoran has HIS OWN half a heart..like...it belongs to him in the first place? Then, half of his(CSyaoran) heart Fai is holding and the other half RSyoran has to give him no heart and RSyaoran a whole heart? I mean, does Fai still has that piece, right? And it is obvious that RSyoran took his half back and it was declared that CSyoran is now, without a heart .....
So...If Fai still has this piece that must have been the half of CSyaoran that was solely his then is that the key in getting our beloved old Syaoran back?
Or, was it picked up somewhere along the way and I missed it?
Or, does CSyoran just have simply... a half of a heart which never belonged to him and the other half just never existed?
I'm very confused and I'm pretty sure I missed something....

Hehe great chapter here are my thoghts in the spoilers, tell me what you think please ^_^

From what i can tell so far. The R.S took the heart from the shell body.  Which is his clone and they are one of the same accept its another part of R.s, hehe hard to explain i guess if you go really into it.  I think the R.S. though even though showing no signs he is trying to be mean, may infact be lieing about the feelings for Sakura not being from the heart the clone carried but what throws me off is the almost sincer look he gives when saying it.

I say this, because for
one what Fai tried to do with the heart
two Syaoran doesnt look to happy about what he tried to do, even though Fai was trying to protect the hearts "memmories!"
three it maybecome confusing if my first two reasons are wrong, but that is because we are in a magical world in the manga where anything could happen and every slightest detail is important and since it is magic, and magic almost has the means to do anything, it therefor becomes almost unpredictable in my opinion, but little predictions here and there can become accurit.

It is intreasting that Sakura becomes sad when R.S though says it doesnt come from his own heart.

Also intreasting how Clone.S seems to be more lifeless with out the heart or that he is no longer has w/e power within him but is now only a simple shell with only one duty and priority in his mind.

Now the question is, what was R.S late for?
What is wrong with  C.S now
and how will C.S be stopped?

hehe, i think three things will either happen.
A merge of bodies.
C.S will be defeated.
C.S will regain himself and R.S will travel with them.

Last one i believe is less likely to happen, what you think?

But how would you then explain the mirror image of C! and R! on chapter 65 pg 4(or  168 Del Rey volume 9) where we see both with raised hands? That is the one scene where for me there is a discrepancy in the "I only saw through C!'s eye", all the mirror dreams and whatnot can be blamed on the C! taking over, but that one during the fight with Kurogane in Shura  I do not get. It cannot be Syaoran's (C! with half of R!'s heart) metal image since his mental image of the clone is dressed like him but with an eyepatch.

I'm pretty mixed up by the heart halves as well and did think where one of those got -  :heh: we should make a chart of the movement of the halves! :wink:

From what i've gathered from the manga, clone Syaoran lost the half, Fye picked it up, Fye tried to return it to him through his own eye when clone Syaoran stole it, so it was back inside Syaoran but not part of him, then real Syaoran came and took it back :-)

Am I missing something major? Because I don't see where this business about "half" hearts came from. I thought it was copy of real!Syaoran's heart, which he had to give up the use of his left (or was it right?) eye to put in the clone. Real!Syaoran gets the copy back, which lets him use his eye again. When was it devided in half?
Title: Re: Chapter 122
Post by: Rusty on July 21 2006, 11:01 pm
Real!Syao gave half his heart to Clone!Syao so that he was humanish..
Fye tried to get Clone!Syao back to human mode by returning Clone!Syao half heart through his right eye...
But Real!Syao says once Clone!Syao turned into CreepyDestructo!Syao there was no way anyone could get him back to human mode. 
But Real!Syao is trying to do just that by reminding Clone!Syao about Sakura.

I'm thinking... maybe CLAMP has kept Fai unconscious for this part for a reason. Maybe they don't want him reacting to the bat symbol on clone!Syaoran's shirt too.
I've always had my suspicions that Fei Wong Reed has had something to do with Fai's past since the little-Kurogane story arc.
Perhaps Fai even had something to do with Kuro-mumma's death by chain of events. Maybe he's aware that something he's done has effected Kurogane and that's why he's so desperate not to divulge any information about his past to him.

My theory is that Fei Wong Reed had contact with Ashura. Ashura somehow had Fai under his control and used him for his magic. I'm not sure... but since Fai has the power to create life, maybe he created the Oni that killed Kurogane's mother?
Fai could have tattooed himself with that magical device to suppress his powers and stop them from being used in such an awful way. That would explain why he's so reluctant to use his powers anymore, as well as why it was his most precious possession and why it was also the seal on Ashura's 'coffin'.
It does kind of make sense that Fei Wong would have a part to play in Fai's backstory since he has in Kurogane and Syaoran's.

I agree

They are keeping fai knocked out, because right now, they are explaing what fai did. It wouldn't be the same if it was coming from fai, or fai was awake. Its more dramac this way.

Also I bet Fai will wake up in time for something to happen, or if Csyaoran runs away. Because right now. Isn't  Csyaoran working for FWR. He is on his "clone programing", when Rsyaoran put the heart in. He tried to stop it. That made Syaoran not remember about FWR and his purpose. But now, what is stoping him. Because I don't think Csyaoran is going to snap right out of it, when sakura comes. I think it will happen later with more fighting and twisted plots, mwhahahaha.

About Fai's bleeding, he won't die soon.

Besides, Sands lost two eyes, anf Fai only has lost his one right eye :)

that you're reading something made by CLAMP.  CLAMP doesn't work wiith "predictable" stuff.  Not at all.   So, when they drew that scene, it was made to throw us off the loop.  They made it so we all believed it was the Real!Syaoran taking over the clone.   That was CLAMP's intention.  Yeah, I use to think that too until we got to the further worlds.  It was then that I realized that Chapter 65 doesn't make much sense when trying to put everything together.

Technically, we don't actually know the full reason as to why both Syaorans did the same thing since it was never explained.  It most likely had something to do with their hearts being one half of the other.  I can tell you though, that, R!Syaoran had no control over his clone.  It had to be something else.  Sometimes, it's very common in manga for characters to be halves of the other and react similar by being connected through their hearts or soul.  ^_0

Hey, RSyao took his heart (aka feelings and emotions) back, but it doesn't mean the clone lost his memory, right? He should remember all his life with Sakura and all, so ... Yeah... however it didn't stop him from doing THIS to Fai even if he remembered him... :dodge:

Well, since I have only read Tsubasa and started Card Captor Sakura today, I am really not all that familiar with CLAMP's trickiness. I see!
The logic-lover in me yearns for logical explanations - it was out of the pattern and a one time occurrence but yes, I guess we shall know the reason not before a later date. Right now all I can think of is self-preservation instincts - if you see through your eye in some one else's head that there is a sword coming towards you, instinctively your first reflex would be to ward it off, before you have time to think "wait, I only see it, it is not me who is under threat".

You got a good point there, actually.  Never really thought of it that way before.   ^_^   Both Syaorans are technically the same in a way.   So, many of the clone's movements should actually be similar to R!Syaoran, in a sense, with the exception that they kick differently.

Edit:  And it's alright if you're not too familiar with how CLAMP works in their stories.  They tend to leave their fans hanging in mystery a lot.    :sweatdrop:  Enjoy CCS!   It's a very good CLAMP classic!

Kurogane already had his sowrd, when he talked to Kakyou(?) he just left it upstairs. So perhaps mokona had the power to "summon" a person's possesion?

I think Mokona already had that kind of power--he was able to transport things from one world to another. (Such as sucking in Fay's staff and giving it to Yuuko, and exchanging it for the monster in Doumeki's temple.) However, I've been curious as to where the swords get put when Mokona is "storing" them. Do they go into a special room in Yuuko's shop? I'm pretty sure they've got to be somewhere.

I went to sleep and two pages were added by the time I woke up. Though there was the pain of having to go without the next chapter, that thread was awesome.

And maybe the swords in Mokona's mouth just get turned into magic or something and stay in one of it's stomachs (as the black Mokona mentioned it had more than one, lol.). Kinda like how the black Mokona stores the spirits in it's mouth/stomach/whatever for a while before Yuuko asked him to send it.

However, I've been curious as to where the swords get put when Mokona is "storing" them. Do they go into a special room in Yuuko's shop? I'm pretty sure they've got to be somewhere.
ah, but kuro's sword was at the top of the building, in their room, and syaoran's was somewhere in the crowd (i think) albiet the use of fai's magic caused syao's sword to come out instead, but how did kuro's sword end up from their room into mokona's mouth? its a bit confusing :S

Okay, I see what you mean now. I can understand that happening if Black Mokona was on the other end, but it wasn't, so...how does Mokona just "teleport" the sword there?  That's a good question. Also, I wonder if Mokona's power to do that extends to everything. I mean, if that was the case, if they knew where the feather was, Mokona couuld just "summon" it, as you said, and that would be like cheating. XD

I'm thinking... maybe CLAMP has kept Fai unconscious for this part for a reason. Maybe they don't want him reacting to the bat symbol on clone!Syaoran's shirt too.
I've always had my suspicions that Fei Wong Reed has had something to do with Fai's past since the little-Kurogane story arc.
Perhaps Fai even had something to do with Kuro-mumma's death by chain of events. Maybe he's aware that something he's done has effected Kurogane and that's why he's so desperate not to divulge any information about his past to him.

My theory is that Fei Wong Reed had contact with Ashura. Ashura somehow had Fai under his control and used him for his magic. I'm not sure... but since Fai has the power to create life, maybe he created the Oni that killed Kurogane's mother?
Fai could have tattooed himself with that magical device to suppress his powers and stop them from being used in such an awful way. That would explain why he's so reluctant to use his powers anymore, as well as why it was his most precious possession and why it was also the seal on Ashura's 'coffin'.
It does kind of make sense that Fei Wong would have a part to play in Fai's backstory since he has in Kurogane and Syaoran's.

I like this theory a lot, maybe Fai did have something to do with Kurogane's past or Fei Wong Reed had something to do with Fai's past. But, if Fai did had something to do with the death of Kurogane's mother, doesn't that make Fai older than Kurogane?  :surprised:

Not nessisarily. Time flows differently in different dimentions. Time could be flowing much quicker in Kurogane's dimention than in Fai's.
But I've always thought that Fai is a lot older than Kurogane anyway. CLAMP mages seem to have a very long lifespan and, although I think Fai is probably a 'young' mage by respects, he could be over a hundred already! Yuko is probably hundreds of years old but she still has the appearence of a woman in her late-twenties/early thirties.

Being a huge Tolkien fan, appearance and its relation to age has long lost its significance to me. I never thought of Fai's age but now that someone brought my attention to it, I realise I am expecting him to be a lot older in years than he looks.

Post by: tg on July 24 2006, 02:56 pm
No, "our" Syaoran shouldn't be gone forever.  ^_^    I mean, that scene at the beginning of volume one might happen, right?

There's a lot of good theories running around the internet.  (And probably some of my own.)

1) R!Syaoran is actually lying to C!Syaoran in order to get C!Syaoran's "heart" to somehow go back to normal.  (Edit: Although C!Syaoran doesn't really have a "heart" now, that doesn't mean his "love" has faded or did it really go away?)

2) The volume one prelude scene in that giant tube might actually be a "dream"?

3) R!Syaoran would eventually learn to fall in love with Sakura even if he had no feelings for her before.   (So technically, he would become "our" Syaoran again because his heart was  reflected in the clone.)

4) C!Syaoran's heart will be able to revert to "our" Syaoran again.  Problem with this theory is his "program" that's embedded with him unless he can root it out (and become a real boy!  Like Pinocchio!)

5)  Most common theory ---> R!Syaoran and "our Syaoran will merge.  >_>   In one mind, body, spirit, etc.

6) What if the yin/yang seal actually had two parts to it?   Even though we assume that the seal went fully back to C!Syaoran before R!Syaoran retrieved it.   What if, Fai actually had some other part of it, still?

7)  Sakura's voice will awaken "our" Syaoran somehow??   O_o

8)  Something interesting that I read from the MSN TRC manga board.    Syaoran's price was supposedly his "relationship" with Sakura.  BUT....it may have been the other way around!!   Syaoran's price was to forget his "love" with her.  ^_0

And that's all I've seen so far.   Good things to brainstorm as we countdown to Wednesday.    :keke:

Post by: starprov356 on July 24 2006, 05:02 pm
Yeah, at first I was also really upset by the thought that our Syaoran was gone and Syaoran and Sakura's relationship was over.  But then I remembered that, in the first volume, Yukito as the High Priest says that Sakura and Syaoran are destined for each other, even through they will have to go through a lot of adversity.  At least, that's how it was translated in the Del Rey English version, although I see from the manga scanlations that that's not quite what it said in the Japanese.  Presuming that the English version is OK by Clamp . . . this gives me hope that this situation has to work out somehow and we get our Syaoran back, not just someone else replacing him.

Also, much as I agree that Real!Syaoran is hotter and more interesting (at the moment) than our Syaoran, I don't think I'd be satisfied with him fully replacing our Syaoran, especially with Sakura.  So right now I'm betting on 2), hoping for 4) in some form, and thinking 7) is possible.  Personally, I hope to see our good Syaoran struggling with evil programming inside of him.  That could be really good.

The first one that was changed... is that it wasn't "the stolen right eye" but  "the stolen left eye". (Page 6, the last line that Syaoran says... "That magician tried to return it to you together with that stolen left eye.")

Lol!!!! Of course... I'm surprised none of us noticed that!

And the second one was... "Kurogane's sword feels painful" or something along the lines of it hurts to take out Kurogane's sword.

Now that really explains why Mokona couldn't get the sword AND that little tear drop you see on Mokona's eye. >_>

Hehee, I get it mostly but since I have a trouble with left and right myself (being a re-taught left-handed person), it is getting a little confusing by now.  I know which eye of C!Syaoran and which of Fai is blind/taken but I keep forgetting R!Syaoran's.

Theory 8 caught my eye because of my recent xxxHolic reading, it was somewhat of a speed-reading so unfortunately I cannot recall the exact sentences in the Del Rey version (it was vol 2 if I am not mistaken), where Yuuko tells Watanuki how she should have taken Syaoran's memories of Sakura as well to pay the price. Then there was something I cannot recall, followed by Yuuko proclaiming that she did not do that since she was such a softy - but of course she was just not telling everything. If theory 8 has some basis, this might be important - whether she was telling the truth about not taking Syaoran's memories, and if she did not, then what was the real reason.

R!Syaoran gave his "left" eye to C!Syaoran.

C!Syaoran became blind in his "right" eye because his "right" eye is R!Syaoran's "left" eye.

Now, R!Syaoran has come back for his "left" eye.

C!Syaoran took Fai's "left" eye for his magic so it became his "left" eye.

Now, Fai is without a "left" eye.  :(

There we go!   ^_^   The whole "eye" food pyramid sort-to-speak.

There we go!   ^_^   The whole "eye" food pyramid sort-to-speak.

*gets out my tent and joins you guys on waiting*

*waves flag* Someone stop C!Syaoran from going crazy!!

I think C!Syaoran couldn't see from his RIGHT eye. Cos I remember in Outo Kurogane grabbed Syaoran's face and was like inspecting his right eye.

I've been waiting expectantly for Subaru to make his appearance since Outo. He needs to wake up!

On a slightly less related note, I'd love to see Hokuto make an appearance. I miss her fashion sense. XD

You are right, meliwan. I went through the last few chapters and also checked the chapter in Oto where we first find out about Syaoran's blindness.

R/Syaoran gave his left eye to his clone.
C/Syaoran is blind in his right eye due to it being R/Syaoran's.
C/Syaoran took Fai's left eye to replace his right eye, the one that was R/Syaoran's and was "dissipating".

I have this idea.....
 what if fai asks yuko to fix c/syoran craziness ( of as a wish) and must pay a suitable price,
and what is more valuble than his source of magic ....... (left eye)  . Fai let syoran take
his eye and then comes yuko's turn to do some magic..and c/syoran to our/syoran ....
it is just an idea ....... :)
Title: Re: Chapter 122
Post by: Pikari on July 26 2006, 01:57 am
The first one that was changed... is that it wasn't "the stolen right eye" but  "the stolen left eye". (Page 6, the last line that Syaoran says... "That magician tried to return it to you together with that stolen left eye.")

Lol!!!! Of course... I'm surprised none of us noticed that!

And the second one was... "Kurogane's sword feels painful" or something along the lines of it hurts to take out Kurogane's sword.

Now that really explains why Mokona couldn't get the sword AND that little tear drop you see on Mokona's eye. >_>

XD Except it says 'watasou', not 'itasou'. Mokona just said he was trying to hand the sword over to Kurogane. And I thought the same as Chiaki when I was reading it.. that it was talking about Syaoran's 'new right eye', but apparently CLAMP are confusing themselves.

*still giggling at Kurogane's sword being painful* Well, it *is* a big sword. XD XD CLAMP really should have used that line instead. Except Fai should have said it. They need to lay off the eye obsession and make things more interesting. ^^;

And whoever predicted lots of Sakura yelling for the next chapter, I'm with them. Not that I want more Sakura yelling.. -__-

I can just see it.  He wakes up, kicks her out, and rolls over and goes back to sleep. XD

I'm thinking to get out of the bubble she'll probably have to wake him up, banging on the walls doesn't seem to be doing any good.

Hello,

Just wanted to hop in with a quick thank you to Celesse and Pikari for the recent scanlations.  It's great to see quality translators/scanlators keeping current with this amazing manga.  I hate waiting for volume scans, it's way too good!

ch. 123's going to be big,  i'm really looking forward to it!

Thanks again,

No....  You're right!!   ^o^   Aghh!    I got mixed up on that again!!   Just when I thought, I got it.  I think, in my subconsciousness, it always makes me think the opposite even though, I know what suppose to be right!   :keke:
Edit:  Thank you!!

>_<   *goes to correct it*

Second edit:  I have read the very beginning summarized part of Chapt. 123 at the Japanese Tsubasa forum.   I shall share it with anyone who is curious.  The Japanese characters and the English translation (that my translator got) will be both here together.  It seems, R!Syaoran decides to do "something".  >_>

Well, if you remember a few chapters back, R!Syaoran used his right hand (which is mostly known as the dominant hand) to put his "left" eye into C!Syaoran's "right" eye.  That's how CLAMP drew that scene.  That's how it ended up that C!Syaoran became blind on his "right" eye.   It may not make sense as to why a "left" eye became a "right" eye, but, I guess..., it really doesn't matter which eye you take to put into your clone.   O_o  As long as it can carry the sealing spell correctly, it should work.

The Tokyo Tower collapsed?

Show content
Ah..  You may want to hide that (into spoiler tags) unless chapter 123 comes out sooner than we think.   And no, the summary didn't mean the Tokyo Tower collapsed, but, it might have.  Tokyo Tower is mainly a tourist trap with a McDonald's attached to it.  Actually, I don't even remember if Tokyo Tower was left standing in Tsubasa.  Must go back to check.  ^_^   The word "government" comes into play.  To me, it seems like everything's about to collapse!   The "Diet Building" comes into mind because that's a government building.  >_>

*
Edit no. 2:  It's quite amusing on the Japanese Tsubasa forum.  Some of them are getting confused about the differences between Syaorans.   Several of them seem to think CCS!Syaoran = Real!Syaoran.   Hehe...ehhh... O_o;

Post by: Ying Hua on July 26 2006, 07:55 pm
No, "our" Syaoran shouldn't be gone forever.  ^_^    I mean, that scene at the beginning of volume one might happen, right?

There's a lot of good theories running around the internet.  (And probably some of my own.)

1) R!Syaoran is actually lying to C!Syaoran in order to get C!Syaoran's "heart" to somehow go back to normal.  (Edit: Although C!Syaoran doesn't really have a "heart" now, that doesn't mean his "love" has faded or did it really go away?)

2) The volume one prelude scene in that giant tube might actually be a "dream"?

3) R!Syaoran would eventually learn to fall in love with Sakura even if he had no feelings for her before.   (So technically, he would become "our" Syaoran again because his heart was  reflected in the clone.)

4) C!Syaoran's heart will be able to revert to "our" Syaoran again.  Problem with this theory is his "program" that's embedded with him unless he can root it out (and become a real boy!  Like Pinocchio!)

5)  Most common theory ---> R!Syaoran and "our Syaoran will merge.  >_>   In one mind, body, spirit, etc.

6) What if the yin/yang seal actually had two parts to it?   Even though we assume that the seal went fully back to C!Syaoran before R!Syaoran retrieved it.   What if, Fai actually had some other part of it, still?

7)  Sakura's voice will awaken "our" Syaoran somehow??   O_o

8)  Something interesting that I read from the MSN TRC manga board.    Syaoran's price was supposedly his "relationship" with Sakura.  BUT....it may have been the other way around!!   Syaoran's price was to forget his "love" with her.  ^_0

And that's all I've seen so far.   Good things to brainstorm as we countdown to Wednesday.    :keke:

I like these theories. They give me hope. Now, onto reading the last 3 pages

Ladydarkmoon has great scans, yes, this is true. Having the lesser quality scans was nice, though, since it let you knwo basically what was happening until Ladydarkmoon had hers up and you could get a clearer idea. But waiting is fine too.

Yeah, from there.   Those two sentences, I put down earlier, are the only ones that I read so far.  I didn't want to spoil myself any further as it is.  I rather wait patiently for the scans first before going back to read the whole summary.  As for the Chapt. 123 spoiler that you put down, it seems about right since it looks like that's the only thing he can do (for now).   Sorry, there isn't any other place that has summaries as of this moment except the one you put down.  ^_^   Well, not that I can think of at least.
