xxxHOLiC 160 spoiler translation

[starlady]

I still have the physical pages of 159 lying around. Anyone willing to scan? Fans will soon owe nokiirat an electronic beer, or at the very least a hearty thanks.

Doumeki and Watanuki are at the fortune-teller's house, later.

Watanuki hears from Doumeki that Kohane wanted to give him, not her mother, the balloon.

Watanuki: I've always thought that "I have to be here."
          I also thought that "That's because my parents died, and I'm the only one left."
          Somehow, I've come to feel a little different.

Doumeki: ...Different how?

Watanuki: I don't know.
            Because I don't remember.

Doumeki: What d'you mean?

Watanuki: That's how it is.
             But.
             Even if I don't remember,
             As long as there are people who remember about me,
             I've come to think that "I want to be here."

                                                                                                                                       
Hah, the balloon. That makes me think of Ergo Proxy, which gives me weird thoughts of Kohane = Pino? If Kohane ever shows up in a rabbit suit, you'll know it's true.

Seriously, Clamp, get on with it. Unless they're trying to end HOLiC and TRC simultaneously?

Looks like nokiirat-sama and I have worked something out, but thanks for your offer.

I sort of got into this game just recently, so I haven't historically done TRC, but why not, if I'm going to get into the game so late I might as well go all in. :-) Which is complicated metaphor-speak for "probably I will translate the TRC spoilers when they are there."
