no spoilers for latest chapter, just blathering

Quick post - does anyone know if we ever got a clearer version of FWR's little harem, other than the one in the first chapter? Something just occurred to me and I wanna check it out, but that first panel isn't detailed enough ( Read more... )

I can't remember seeing any better picture of those women, but I might be forgetting something. ;; I've been trying to look at the pictures of them in ch 1 though, and I don't know - I can't say that they remind too much of Yuuko's clients, but on the other hand it's hard to tell.

I'm having the similar thought about FWR, especially after reading the translations for ch 193. Yuuko was always talking about 'the moment that was about to come' and things like that, and at first I though she was talking about the day when she would be leaving, but since things obviously aren't resolved yet, there's probably still important stuff that needs to happen. FWR being created seems like a good guess. D: Perhaps Doumeki is supposed to use the egg to keep that from happening (although Yuuko said that Doumeki was the one who would pick the time to use the egg, hm). On the other hand, if FWR was not created, what would happen to Watanuki? In a way he exists because of FWR (the same goes for Syaoran and Sakura).

I have a clearer picture in my head, but I might have gotten that from the 30 seconds of the Tsubasa anime that I managed to watch. *ponders*

If I had to guess, I'd say that the egg is a part of what's different this time around. Either the egg, as an existence that is was-once-one-and-is-now-two will be a kind of replacement sacrifice for Watanuki (kimono padding, April 1st, right?) or...it'll do something completely incomprehensible to people who aren't CLAMP. DX

...I still kinda think that the egg may be what gives birth to FWR, honestly. Yuuko said nothing will be born from it, but FWR wasn't born, was he? He was a kind of clone, a remnant. If Big Bad wasn't just residue from Clow's wish, then maybe he was residue from Doumeki and/or Watanuki.

That's how Tanpopo was born, wasn't it? Shaped by Watanuki's wishes and warm feelings, it became a cute little bird. This other egg though...it's being surrounded by obsession and magic and bad decisions. It could be soaking in that unending desire to get Yuuko back, either from Watanuki ( ... )

Also, not sure if I mentioned this before, but I'm sorry if I repeat stuff in various comments - I type what I think, so I end up going over and over various stuff just as I remember it again. XD

Haha, don't worry, I tend to repeat myself a lot too. Sometimes I can't remember if what I'm saying is something that I've already mentioned somewhere else or if I only have been thinking those things to myself.

You're right, the egg could definitely be involved in the creation of FWR. Still, it always sounded like Doumeki was supposed to use it for some special purpose, whatever that might be (and that he would be the one to pick the time when to do so, too). Then again, an egg is usually a symbol for birth or creation, so even if it nothing technically is born from it like Tanpopo was, I think it's very possible that it could have something to do with FWR's existence (and now I'm talking in circles again, sigh). Also, in a way Doumeki and Watanuki fulfilled the wish of the people in Tokyo together, so if Watanuki got egg #1 as his part of the payment it would make sense that Doumeki got the other one - perhaps to use for his wish ( ... )
