acchikocchiTHE DESTINED DAY HAS FINALLY COME. /clamp impression
That is, TRC's ending September 30th (I'm... not sure how they're going to wrap it up in two more chapters but I guess we'll find out) so if you've been waitingto make sure it would actually be completed for the end before catching up, if you start now you'll probably be done at just around the right time. XD
But I'm really here to talk about xxxHOLIC.
I. Can I just get the squealing out of the way first? Okay.
It's - it's what everyone predicted in fic as far back as, like, 2005. Yuuko disappears, Watanuki is determined to stay with the shop, FLASH FORWARD FOUR YEARS TO WHERE HE AND DOUMEKI ARE SHACKING UP IN THE SHOP?? Okay okay perhaps Doumeki does not live there, but he's at the very least a frequent visitor who goes shopping for Watanuki. XD Watanuki slinks languidly around in kimono, pipe in hand; Doumeki is wearing a suit and majoring in folklore at university, presumably looking for an answer to Watanuki's predicament. Oh, glee. Oh, rapture.
Okay, just had to - to let that out. The raws aren't online yet - just photos of a couple pages - so who knows what they're actually doing in the future, but apparently the Young Magazine table of contents lists the chapter as "xxxHOLiC・籠" (xxxHOLIC - Cage) which seems like it might indicate a new arc/subseries, like they did with Rayearth and CCS? I... do not know how to feel about this. I wouldn't say no to more 'Holic, exactly, and if TRC's wrapping up it should go more quickly but just how long would they intend a second series or arc to run? :o
....cage. aw, watanuki. D:

Date: 2009-09-16 05:48 am (UTC)i fully expect gratuitous panels of watanuki lounging around in beautifully tailored clothing
the scan of watanuki's first appearance in the chapter was. quite aesthetically pleasing. *_* (they - they look all GROWN UP now.)

(and significantly pointier lololol oh clamp :'D)
the hysterical thing is i had a fic planned out along those lines (like 487904701 other holic writers, i'm betting) and i was reluctant to write since i hadn't read anything after the kohane arc and now i'm like *_______* AHHHH SOMETIMES WHEN CLAMP IS GOOD TO YOU, THEY'RE VERY GOOD
