Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, chapter 149
So, I had access to early, and completely unreadable (to me anyway) scans of this week's Tsubasa chapter. Because I saw all of the lines typed up in the 2ch spoiler thread, I was able to recognize them in the small scans and put them together. Unless there's a missing page in the small scans, this is the complete chapter, but... (There's always a "but", you know.)

Wednesday update: translation fixed!


For image goodness, head over to su_chan's place.

Many thanks to my non-LJ friend who alerted me to the small scans being out.

Chapitre 149
Lovable future

-01- (splash: Freya)

The world that she connected, (T/N: I decided to leave "world" as singular, because as far as I understand Freya is only responsible by one of the worlds in the link to Infinity.)
what does it present to the magician,
what does it steal from him---?

-02-

??: The curse

-03-

??: is not lifted.

-05-

Sakura: Just, from now on...
please promise me that you'll value yourself the most.

Kurogane: Don't pull out the sword!

Shaoran: Sakura!!!

-08-

Yuuko: The feathers that were sealed in the two resonating creations.

Yuuko: Along with the memories, Sakura-hime's magic power was contained in the two feathers.

Yuuko: If the two gather,
Yuuko: the power comes to exceed Fai's halved magic power.

-09-

Yuuko: The connected worlds. Infinity, Celes,
and one more world that the princess wished for.


Yuuko: The probability is fifty-fifty. (T/N: Typo from both spoiler people here. It's 確率, not 確立.)

-14-

Sakura: I made it in time.

Sakura: It's all right.
My life is not disappearing.
Sakura: It's still here.

-15-

Sakura: Don't forget.
Sakura: From now on as well, the future can change. (T/N: Sorry for the awkward wording. She probably means that this wasn't the last time that the future was allowed to change.)

-16-

Sakura: I'm sorry.

-17-

Sakura: Please,
take care of Fai-san.

-18-

Sakura: Until we can meet again.

Teaser: The journey of the lovable people
was also embracing
the beginning of the end---

The "split" mentioned in the spoilers actually did happen. At one point, the wounded Sakura fell backwards, and a healthy Sakura appeared leaning forward (in Fai's direction), this is the one who spoke all the lines from page 14 on. She looked like she was talking telepathically. However, it looked like she could touch Fai, so exactly what is going on? Is she in a condition similar to a spirit (as in, the Holic ones) now? Does she have control of how solid her form is?

I suspect that Sakura provoked the split herself, for reasons that are still unclear. syaoranmew suggested that she might have needed to leave her body behind to enter the world she wanted to go to, and I'm wondering whether she's planning to use this condition to gather the rest of her memories without helping along Fei Wang Reed's plan. In that case, the world she wants to go to must also have some means of transdimensional transportation, or perhaps it's not so difficult anymore, now that she left her body behind. Or maybe she wants to find the clone and take advantage of his means of traveling?

Wednesday update: The large scans are out at ladydarkmoon's!
