TRC 196 translation
[01]
The entrusted wish, the imparted power
Surge out now,
Until I am at the peak of my limits!
Chapter 196: A Moment's Hesitation
[02]
Jr.: SAKURA!!!
[03]
Sakura; ...No.
My
Real name is...
[04-7]
[08]
Jr.: SAKURA--!!!
FX: Ba-growl
[09]
FWR: The future is always ahead of choice.
That hand which you did not take due to a moment's confusion just now
Decided your path from here on.
FX: Bam
[10]
FX: Quick
Jr: !!
FX: Quick
[11]
Jr: ...Sakura...
These black feathers are...
[12]
FWR: The engraved seal of death.
Jr.: !!!
FWR: When the seal that was graven now, today,
Has enshrouded and exhausted that body, that time [T/N: "Body" written "corpse" as usual, with more pointed meaning this time.]
[13]
FWR: Will be the last.
Jr.: Why!
FX: Bam
Why,
On Sakura...!!
[14]
FWR: To grant my wish.
Jr.: Raitei Shourai!
FX: Eyes flashing with rage
Jr.: !
[15]
FWR: As it is, it seems you've grasped the meaning of that spell.
In that case you should understand.
That you can't win.
FX: Tightening
BOOM
[16]
FX: Hissing steam
FX: Ka-hack!
FX: Rough
FX: Shaking
FX: Swallow
FWR: If you take the next one,
You'll die.
[17]
FX: Drip drip
FX: Hissing steam
FWR: ...Do you fight for the sake of a wish as well?
Will the end of your wish and mine become the same?
FX: Light
FX: Bam
[18]
FX: Boom
FX: Crash crash crash crash
Jr.: !?
[19]
Jr.: Saku...ra...
That glaring difference in power--
Both the hand and the wish
Did not reach.
Wow. It's more dramatic now that I've taken the time to actually read what FWR was saying. Heartless bastard that he is, he's pretty much completely correct in everything he says in this chapter--not least because most of what he says is exactly what Haruka said in this week's chapter of xxxHOLiC. And have we ever had these sort of closeups on his face?
Also, the hand motif that's been running throughout the series finally reveals its origins/point. The spread pages in this chapter remind me a bit of the first Utena opening, but that's probably just because I sang that song yesterday at karaoke.

I know. Next time, the water's not only gonna backlash, it's gonna frickin morph into an army of bloodthirsty Syaoran clones, all with different names...and they have to guess all of the names correctly or the whole journey will restart! :o Or something.
He's a smextastic individual, is he not?no subject
LLOL, I couldn't stop laughing at your comment. Seriously thank you. XDDAh, I knowww~~ T__T Just look how tiny he is, hanging off that rock.
http://www.onemanga.com/Tsubasa_Reservoir_Chronicles/196/11/
A little baby!! Geez, Clamp's too cruel.
T-T I don't wanna see CCS!sized S&S getting all beat up in TRC. ;____;
Only, all the Clones turn out to have TRUE names, so Syaoran has to call up Watanuki w/ his dream!telepathy and ask him what his True name was again. But Watanuki says "I forgot", so Fai just screams out, "Look! It's SAKURA's FEATHER!" which buys them some time while the Clones go Crazy. But.. they probably won't get out of there anyway... D: Yea, they'll most likely get an END GAME, and go for a Restart...
Certainly. Who else would use a Fabulous!Feather design as Seal of Death while always maintaining that Uncle Sam "I want YOU" pose? And don't get me started on his flawless Ziplock entrances. I tell you, he's got style! ;Dno subject
I picture it like this...
Asschin: "Syaoran", what would you like to do? Poll the Audience, or Phone a Friend?
Jr.: Uh...Phone a Friend, please!
*ringringringringringMOKONAPHONE!*
Watanuki: Hello?
Jr.: Quick! I've only got 30 seconds before an army of me push the reset button on us! "What is 'Syaoran''s real name?"
a)Colleen
b) John McCain
c) *censored*
d) Kimihiro
Watanuki: Look, I don't even know my own name! How am I supposed--
Jr.: FIVE SECONDS!!!
Watanuki: Uhhh...COLLEEN!
Jr.: Are you sure?
Watanuki: Not at all.
Jr.: Good enough! Asschin, I go with a)Colleen!
Asschin: Is that your final answer?
Jr.: YES!
*1 second left*
Asschin: But is it your fiiiiiii--
Jr.: Damnit, YES! Just-
*the timer runs out*
All: OH SHI--
END.
And here I thought those entrances were dimensional lady-parts...the more you know...no subject
*Syaoran slowly lifts his sword*
FWR: Don't kill me!!!
Sakura:....U-um can't we just tie him up? :Dbb;;*smile-smile*
Syaoran: *blind'd* Uh, yea that sounds fine.
While FWR escapes via his what-ca-ma-call-it.
Or maybe Yuuko told Mommy&Daddy not too. Cause kids
clonesneed to grow up eventually!11and do the cookingOHLOL, I can just seee that. XD
Meanwhile in CCS!World:
Watanuki: Hello? Is everything okay over there??
Yuuko: Who was it?
Watanuki: Oh, just some-
Yuuko: Did you choose answer C?
Watanuki: Eh? No, I chose A but-
Yuuko: Hesitation. If you had not hesitated to give the correct answer, perhaps we would not have to redo this scenario again.
BAD END.
Somewhere off in the universe:
FWR&Yuuko: When will these kids get it right?!?
...the less you want to?? XD;;? I love how whatever-it-is is totally indescrutable though.http://www.onemanga.com/Tsubasa_Reservoir_Chronicles/196/15/
FWR!Approved=Unflammable y/n?
no subject
He's threatening your baby, Sakura! Stop being so nice!
OMG YES. I think if Fay just rips off his mask and reveals he is actually Ohkawa in disguise, and Yuuko sends Himawari to go poke Fei Wong (thus killing him), we might get somewhere.
Y! That's his JUST AS PLANNED face.no subject
Jr: Ok time reset pick again!
Watanuki: I dunno, uh look around, any clues? Is her name written on her shoes?
Jr: No! I'm standing in the middle of a freaking reservoir!
Watanuki: ....have you tried 'Tsubasa'?
It's so totally both their names [S and S]
