He's powerless, huh, the new store owner.

Though he doesn't age, he does take hurt.
I don't know how long the customers will be here either.

That's why he will continue to grant wishes,
Again, to meet that person--!!

Mokona: I handed over the shopping list, too.
He said that if there were any additions to mail him on his phone.

The conversion's a pain.

Watanuki: Huh?
He sure has a lot of free time.

Customer: Since I can't see,
Since extraneous things don't get in,
It becomes easier for me to understand.

Your eyes.

Very.

Watanuki: Of course the rest, too.

Thanks a lot for the translation <3 Mokona is adorable XD

[scottishrefugee.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad I followed your advice and left a message on their blog requesting xxxHOLiC 188 be scanned.

And thank you for the translation, of course!

[starlady38.livejournal.com]

I'm glad too.

[ariadnechan.livejournal.com]

wow thanks for the translation!! so Doumeki is staying in the shop???

maybe there still hope for them??

[starlady38.livejournal.com]

I thought Doumeki was living in the shop, and now I'm not sure. I think probably he wanders back and forth between his house and the store.

Watanuki not liking texting is so very amusing. But Mokona liking it... of course it would be one of their secret powers. *giggles*

[starlady38.livejournal.com]

I feel like Mokona is good at whatever it tries.

Technically though it's email, not texting [EMS, not SMS].

[grass-angel.livejournal.com]

Oh, those Japanese and their obsession with gadgetry... though the term 'cell phone mail' threw me a little, even though I know you can email from most new phones.

[starlady38.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's different from the States--I don't even know if it's possible to text from Japanese cell phones, no one does, but everyone's cell phone has an email account.
