Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, chapitre 163
Sigh. I had a baaad morning.

Raws at [info]cloud9_alice's. Thanks to everyone who informed me of the release, since Google Reader == 駄目.


Chapitre 163
Unfulfillable promise

-01- (splash: Kurogane)

The chained tragedies,
the unstopping curses,
with that blade---!!

-02-

Ashura-ou: You promised, right,
Fai?
Ashura-ou: To destroy those who bring harm to the people of this country.

Ashura-ou: Regardless of who they are.

Ashura-ou: So you've already evacuated the people, huh?

Ashura-ou: To another country.

-03-

Ashura-ou: My magic power grows stronger as I kill people.
Ashura-ou: It might soon surpass yours,
Fai.

Fai: Why...

Ashura-ou: Why, indeed.

Ashura-ou: However, it's something I knew.
That someday, I'd do this.

-04-

Fai: And that's why you took me?

Fai: So that one day I'd...
Fai: ... kill you, who'd turn out like this!

-05-

Ashura-ou: That's a spell I taught you, right?
Ashura-ou: A magic to put people to sleep.

-06-

Ashura-ou: The magic doesn't last forever. I'll end up awakening in a while.

Ashura-ou: For you to fulfill your promise would be only stretching that for a bit.

Fai: ... I can't!

-07-

Ashura-ou: What always hurt you the most
was your very kindness, wasn't it?

Ashura-ou: Yuui.

-09-

Fai: I, who can't use magic to cure someone,
Fai: ... can't even save you.

Fai: I can't but simply wish you to sleep...

-10-

Fai: At least
Fai: in your sleep you'll have a good dream.

Fai: ... I can't.

Fai: You took Fai and me...
out of that valley.

-11-

Fai: Whatever were...
the expectations you had,
Fai: you were the first person...
to show us kindness.

Fai: Therefore...
I can't kill you.

Ashura-ou: Then,

-13-

Ashura-ou: let us continue.

-14-

Fai: Sakura-chan!

Shaoran: Sakura...

Ashura-ou: Isn't it intriguing?
Even though there is no soul in this body, it's still alive.

-15-

Ashura-ou: Is it the power of that feather artifact that you changed into human form?
Ashura-ou: Though it seems that child has already returned to this body.

Ashura-ou: Yes,
that child
Ashura-ou: You told me she was created to resemble your mother, right,
Fai?

-16-

Ashura-ou: ... This girl is a very important
existence to you, isn't she?

Fai: ... Majesty...?

-18-

Fai: Shaoran-kun!
Mokona!

-19-

Fai: Stop!!

-21-

Shaoran: Raitei...

Shaoran: Shourai!!

-22-

Teaser: What awaits ahead,
is it eternal death,
or momentary life!?

Ashura-ou, you got the wrong blue-eyed blond guy for this job.

Page 15: *cue the Titanic theme for the sinking "ship" of Chi/Fai*

Page 21: Shaoran, is it really a good idea to use an area attack under conditions like those?

Page 22: Bad, horrible, no good antithesis.

Thank you so much!

I'm new at LJ, but I been following yours for a while now. By the way, I'm doing spanish scalations of Tsubasa and xxxHOLiC, and I was wondering if i could use your translations ^^
I will credit you, of course n_n

Thank you again!

Sure you can use my translations, just pay attention to the occasional "I'm-not-sure-what-the-heck-is-this" notes -- my Japanese is far from good, after all. Any questions about the translation, don't hesitate to ask.

Yuuup, and Fai falls for it -so- nicely. (But still won't grant the poor guy's wish. Siiigh. You could do better, Fai.)

THANK YOU SO MCUH FOR THE TRANSLATIONS!
And yes, unless people wants to go for incest I guess the Fay/Chii pairing is going to be domed...
Finally, finally things are getting interesting... even if we don't know yet what was paining Shaoran...
and... do you mind if I translate this?

Shaoran... I hope CLAMP will provide us with an explanation as to how he managed to appear to Watanuki, and whether he'll have any part in getting Sakura back to her body.

and... do you mind if I translate this?
Go ahead, and sorry for taking a while to reply.

I'm feeling slightly better now that I found out what actually caused the mess this morning, but I'm still pissed off about a few things. Thanks for worrying, though. ♥

Ashura-ou should just have, I dunno, gotten the monkey paw off Yuuko if he wanted his wish granted so badly. Though I still think he originally wanted Fai specifically to off him so that the first curse would be broken as a bonus. Fai didn't, then the burden fell to poor Sakura who didn't even want to die in the first place. Ouch.

Thanks. ^__^

Poor Ashura-ou, Fay doesn't love him. Because if he did, he wouldn't think twice about killing him. Only Taishakuten cares enough to kill him.

*cue the Titanic theme for the sinking "ship" of Chi/Fai*

That made me laugh. XD

I wonder what is Ashura thinking... something like: "what much people I must to kill for you kill to me, Fay?" maybe...

So.... chii is expire already? o.o

Page 20 is completely broken-heart to me T^T. what part of "Fay can't kill you" is too complicated for you, ashura?!!

skdjksafsdfhkjdsf KURO!!!! NOOO!! please! Kuro not you! you can't die!!

Definitely! Maybe something like: "Damn, now that he got the rest of the people out, I'm stuck. I killed my own people and now I can't get that wimp won't to kill me. Oh woe!"

what part of "Fay can't kill you" is too complicated for you, ashura?!!
The part that implies that Fai is more stubborn than him. XD

God, CLAMP srsly.
You need to stop putting so much angst, bad fanservice, crappy character motives and actually get the plot moving.

If they kill off Kurogane I'm dropping TRC.
Honestly, he's the only one keeping me interested. :/

Thank you for the translation :)

*doesn't want Kurogane to die either*

Tsubasa sometimes frustrates me because it's, like, so shounen about things. Why can't it be more like Holic? T_T

T-T much love to you,
and damn it Ashura-ou --|
yes, attack Kuro so Fai will kill you.
too bad you kill Fai if Kuro dies. --| I'm woundering how much he's going to be willing to destroy Fai in order to die. though why he just doesn't let kuro kill him. He atleast seems willing to comply with the crazy king's wishes --|
and that Icecle... looks like it flew right threw him!? so hopefully just grazed really badly his side maybe? I'm kinda confused as to where it hit...
thanks again! (oh, and when Ashura-ou made the comment about Chii made to look like Fai's mother... brought me to thinking of the anime, and the inscest going on from Chii's part ><)

The icicle seemed to me to have hit way off-centre, possibly enough to not have pierced any organs. Sakura's wound was far worse, it seems.

I wonder if Ashura-ou doesn't know that the first curse was broken, or if he's just pissed off because Fai broke his promise.

Thank you!!! so Fay saved some civilians and ruined Ashura's plan, kudos! well done! and again, this is the third mention to the fact Fay can't heal... is starting to worry me... what if he does?

And kill Ashura for once!!!! he wants to be killed, Ashura's eyes reminded me of Seishirou's when was about to die, those insane guys just want to be killed T_T

Agh. God. I HATE TRC angst! I tend to empathize with things I really get into so this isn't good for mine heart.

Heh. Sinking the Fay/Chi ship may be alot harder than we think although its safe to say its got a few holes in it.

TRC needs to tone down the angst and up the philosophy... Oh wait -- that's Holic.

Personally, I wouldn't mind some more of Shaoran's identity crisis angst. ^_^

I didn't understand this though:

"Ashura-ou: Is it the power of that feather artifact that you changed into human form?
Ashura-ou: Though it seems that child has already returned to this body."

Chii has returned to Sakura? O.o So confused...

my reaction to that last page: "oh, for christ's sake!"

seriously, how many more impalements/stabbings/puttings out of eyes can one series take? seriously! i agree that i might have to stop reading trc if they kill kurogane.

but maybe on the upside, we'll get a deathbed confession of eternal love from kuro to fai/yuui. here's hoping, anyway...it certainly was a clever move on ashura's part. that smiling bastard.
