starladySo I spoke too soon when I said that raws of 158 would follow, since my university library lacks scanners (!), proving once again that popular images of Japan are woefully mistaken, and my friend who does have access to a scanner is in Europe, while I am heading to Matsuyama, where there are almost certainly no scanners. Anyone out there willing to scan if I mail you the pages? I'm serious.

nokiirat: SOA, RS,ZS.
In the meantime, I'll translate the new chapter.
[page 1]
Kohane: I've heard that you've become close recently.
Shizuka-kun and Kimihiro-kun.
I've heard that when you first met you fought.
Doumeki: As soon as our eyes met on the stairs,
He blew up at me.
Kohane: Kimihiro-kun said,
That as soon as he saw your face, he got angry, and lashed out at you with his foot.
Doumeki: That was also with a flying kick.
Kohane: Since when have you gotten along?
[page 2]
Doumeki: Even now he doesn't think we get along, does he.
Yuuko-san told him,
Even though we told one hundred stories at my temple, he has to say what he wants to borrow.
Even now when we meet he may kick me. That dumbass.
Kohane: And you, Shizuka-kun?
What do you think of Kimihiro-kun?
[page 3]
Doumeki: He's annoying.
A lot happened when we told the hundred stories.
But I thought that nothing changed.
He doesn't want to be concerned with me,
And I too have no reason to be concerned with him.
Kohane: Why?
If you thought that, why did you decide to be with him, Shizuka-kun?
[page 4]
Doumeki: ...On a rainy day,
[page 5]
[page 6]
Watanuki: I'll die like this too.
Alone.
[page 7[
Doumeki: "...Alone."
Kohane: I understand.
Doumeki: What?
Kohane: How Kimihiro and I are different.
[page 8]
Kohane: Since we first met I understood that Kimihiro was a person close to me.
But I thought we were different.
I was alone, but
Kimihiro-kun wasn't alone.
He might have been alone on that rainy day, but
But not anymore.
[page 9]
Because everyone is here.
FX: Casually
Doumeki: Because you're here too.
[page 10]
Kohane: I'd be happy if that's so.
FX: Smoothly
But
Since I don't have the power of purification anymore...
There's something you're carrying,
Isn't there.
[page 11]
Yuuko: Carry this,
For the sake of what will happen hereafter.
Doumeki: ...Yeah.
[page 12]
Kohane: Kimihiro-kun...please take care of him.
[page 13]
(flashback)
Yuuko: Please don't hesitate.
Even if that moment comes.
[page 14]
FX: Grip
Not a lot of text this time, just emotion, and Clamp reminding us of stuff that happened eons ago for emphasis. Now that Clamp-sensei have reminded us of things we have no business forgetting, I'm hoping the series can get on with it. Also, since it's been eons since I've read the eariler volumes and they're currently in boxes, I'm failing to remember what that pelt-thing (it's got a tail in the long shot) was, or if we even saw it before at all.
