Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, chapitre 182
Thanks syaoranmew for sending me the scans.

Chapitre 182
Night of the vow

-01- (splash: Fai and Kurogane)

Measuring and delimiting one another,
even so, those days came to pass.
Tonight, the men shall
link those swords.

-02-

Kurogane: ...... Come in.

Tomoyo: You can tell it right away,

Tomoyo: and since long ago.
Tomoyo: When I wanted to give you a scare, wherever I might hide, you would always quickly find me...
Kurogane.

-03-

Kurogane: Isn't that what being a ninja is all about?
Kurogane: Besides, I'd know where you would be

Kurogane: ... since it's you.

Kurogane: I heard from the witch.
I was gonna be one of that Fei Wang-or-something's lackeys.

Tomoyo: Were that the case,

-04-

Tomoyo: you still would not listen to anyone, would you?

Tomoyo: Even in this country,
Tomoyo: although you were scolded by the Tentei
and made Souma worry,

Tomoyo: in the end you would always act on your own whims.

Kurogane: Sure I would.

Kurogane: ... Hey.
Tomoyo: What is it?

-05-

Kurogane: Isn't grave-robbing a crime?
Tomoyo: It is, is it not?

Kurogane: I need a sword for
the future battles.

Kurogane: However,
I have parted with the Ginryuu that you gave for me to keep.

-06-

Kurogane: Not a different sword;
it's Ginryuu that I need.
Kurogane: The Ginryuu from Suwa that my father didn't let go of
even at his final moment.

-08-

Kurogane: ... Ginryuu?

-09-

Tomoyo: I apologize.

Tomoyo: I kept it without burying it in your mother's grave.

Kurogane (flashback): Please bury Ginryuu
along with my mother.
Kurogane (flashback): Since there are no remains of my father.

Tomoyo: That was because, before she died, your mother called me to Suwa
Tomoyou: and thus wished.

-10-

Kurogane: ... Tomoyo.
Tomoyo: Yes?

Kurogane: I'll leave Nihon-koku behind once again,
but I'll return without fail.

Kurogane: For that reason,
Kurogane: I'll vow one more time.

-11-

Kurogane: My whole being exists for my master's sake; (T/N: Furigana/kanji mismatches. Kurogane is eating up honorifics all over the place.)
my whole being belongs to my master. (T/N: Furigana/kanji mismatch. The kanji would translate to something like "in my master's chest".)
Kurogane: I here vow to live by only that

Kurogane: on my true name
that none but my master knows. (T/N: True name.)

-12-

Tomoyo: May the fates guide your battles,

-13-

Tomoyo: "You-ou".

-14-

Fai: Am I interrupting, by any chance?

-15-

Fai: It's a chilly night
so you should go back to your room and rest up.
Fai: It's not like your wounds are all healed yet,

Fai: and the "that time" Yuuko-san was talking about is still a few days away.

Shaoran: ... Thank you

Shaoran: for being by Sakura...
the princess' side.

-16-

Fai: But being there was all I could do.

Shaoran: That's the best support.

-17-

Fai: ... Sakura-chan
is waiting.

-18-

Shaoran: ... Yeah.

-20-

Mokona: Kurogane, and Fai too

Mokona: got their original clothes.

-22-

Mokona: ... Those clothes...

Yuuko: They're Shaoran's clothes
that I've been keeping.

-23-

Yuuko: ... Mokona.
Mokona: Yes?

Yuuko: There's only one chance for you to be able to go to
Clow country's frozen time.

Mokona: Okay!

Yuuko: Don't pass up on this opportunity to Fei Wang's whereabouts that Watanuki gave you at the price of his memories.

-24-

Yuuko: Then,

Yuuko: go, to Clow country.

Teaser: Believing in himself,
in his friends, in those bonds---
now, towards the decisive battle grounds!

Pages 2-4: Dammit, give us a flashback, CLAMP! And here's to hoping the fandom will follow Kurogane and Tomoyo's example and not dig up any more graves.

Page 11: Hahaha, Kurogane, what's the matter? Too tough to use honorifics?

Pages 12-13: You know, I think I've seen this scene before. (笑)

Pages 15-18: That... was cute. ♥

Page 21: ♥♥♥

Page 23: Wait a minute. What -did- Watanuki pay for? I thought it had been just the information, but apparently not. Well, I think this answers the questions a couple of people had the price being too heavy for just information.

	gdsogsfdhj;lhkfd Aaaaaahahahahaha omg You-ou really was his name and not a new one THIS WILL NEVER STOP BEING FUNNY OKAY asjfklsaflk ahahaha XD I CANNOT BELIEVE WE'RE HEADING TO CLOW KOKU AT LAST. I'm sad 'cause it's likely that the story will be interrupted by the SeiSubKamFuuma plot ~_~; mghr. (Reply to this)

	I really enjoyed the Tomoyo/Kurogane bit quite a lot. So it seems that Watanuki paid for the ability to actually go there. Could this be the final lap for our heroes. (Reply to this)

Ayaa~! *u*

That's sure a pretty splash page!

Judging by the fact that R!Syaoran now has Clonie's clothes... I dunno. I guess I was hoping they'd be seperate people, I hope they still would be. Not just for Clonie's sake, R!Syaoran needs to be his own person too, there's something tragic in being the 'real' one and having to play the 'clone'.

Just a little nitpick of mine. I was betting Yuuko wouldn't even utter Watanuki's name to the TRC gang. Guess I was wrong...

	Holy shittles I can't believe I missed it! So Kurogane's real name is You-ou? XDDD I thinks 'kurogane' suits him better. (Reply to this) (Parent)

I feel the same.
I don't understand the need they found to put back those clothes : ok, Fye put back the clothes he came with from Celes; ok, Kurogane put the clothes from his own country they are in right now but Syaoran what? He really looks awesome (page 21 is pure love!! Nyaaaahh!! XD XD) but just like you said he is not the other Syaoran, he is himself, a separate entity with a distinct identity...
while those clothes looks good on him, it's symbolically disturbing to have him put them on for no reason whatsover : why do they need to wear it? Clamp throw it in just to patch up the plot hole in which we see the real Syaoran in the tube in chapter1?
Thats it?
Or is there more to it?
Clamp said in an interview that they already knew when and what would be the climax of both TRC and XXXHolic...
Are Clamp actually confusing us by making him put this clothes on? Is it really him who will end up in that tube? Will this tube scene even happen to start with? Or am I thinking too much and theyr eally did throw it in for no reason ¬____¬

	kuro_senseibr 2008-02-06 03:20 pm UTC (link)
	I don't agree with you all. The Real Syaoran was all that time behind the Clone feelings, he was the Clone heart and felt all that he(clone) passed through, I think it's very logical he dress up the Clone clothes. Sakura clone has her own heart but Syaoran was just a pawn, a body without soul (until now he doesn't show his true feelings but...) (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	ashura_sama 2008-02-07 04:48 am UTC (link)
	You're welcome! ^_^ Haha, I'm still not paying as much attention as I should -- hadn't noticed about Fai's coat, or the fact that Kurogane's headgear doesn't look so hideous. And hell, yeah, we need an Eriol! Haha, Watanuki, Clow-ou, Kyle... Maybe someone is a bit clone-happy? (笑) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	itzeen 2008-02-06 01:58 pm UTC (link)
	Thanks for the translations!!!!! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	kuro_senseibr 2008-02-06 03:12 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah! We'll have another Magic Knight of Rayerath end when the end is not the end, at least I hope so. I don't want unfilled spaces in this story, not in a manga that'll have more than 25 volumes, so after Fei Wang Arc I want explanations about the vampire-twins. If it doesn't happen we always have a chance of a follow-up, just like Tokyo Babylon. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	ashura_sama 2008-02-07 04:49 am UTC (link)
	(sigh) Watanuki and the others better get some progress done in the next two chapters because i think the wait is so that they can get back onto the same time line. YES, can we please end the Kohane arc already? The poor thing's suffered enough. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	crying4themoon 2008-02-06 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	"and why he must use clone cloths, to decieve real Sakura??" Umm...do you REALLY think that Syaoran is like that? ANY Syaoran? :/ (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	meomaow 2008-02-06 05:16 pm UTC (link)
	Tonight, the men shall link those swords. Oh, I'm sure they will.On a bed. Without clothes. Er. Couldn't resist. I apologize. Thank you for the translation! :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	crying4themoon 2008-02-06 05:49 pm UTC (link)
	Eek! I'm not even a KuroFai shipper and that's the first thing that came to mind... ^///^ I'm too wrapped up in SakuSyao melodrama usually, but that splash page line...you just know someone worded it that way on purpose. XD Does CLAMP make those up, or is it the editor? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	rekallthegreat 2008-02-06 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	So 'You-ou' is his real name and not just a title? Hahahahahaha! I LOVE IT! Since that's just another thing the anime screwed up since they gave Kurogane some other name! Hahahaha! The mommy/son talk was so damn cute. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ashura_sama 2008-02-07 02:26 am UTC (link)
	Hahaha, it wasn't until I read your comment that it registered in my mind why people were so happy that it's an actual name. Though if I understood correctly, you wouldn't say someone's true name in a situation where people who don't know it might listen, so the anime's "Hagane" was probably a public name. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	syaoranmew 2008-02-06 06:51 pm UTC (link)
	you're welcome! ^^ (Reply to this)

	laifan 2008-02-06 06:54 pm UTC (link)
	Does this mean TRC will finish soon?? ...I hope they don't forget about the twin's and Seishirou's past >_> (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ashura_sama 2008-02-07 02:22 am UTC (link)
	I'm afraid we'll jinx that one if we speak of it too much... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	jurassicpeach 2008-02-06 09:09 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you for translating! This whole chapter makes me all wibbly! Kurogane's pledge, Fai and Syaoran talking, and their original clothes! And the splash page! AH! I'm so excited for the rest of the story despite the two week wait. Eeee! (Reply to this)

	kinoha 2008-02-06 09:59 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you!! :D I wonder why his real name is You-ou...falcon king? It must have some symbolic meaning, doesn't it? Hm....all those prices are confusing... (Reply to this)

	redeternity90 2008-02-06 10:07 pm UTC (link)
	Oops. How could I forget - thank you for the translation!! Page 17 is too pretty. __ And SO much love for page 21. ♥♥ squee Tsubasa is so exciting right now. 8D (Reply to this)

	la_vie_noire 2008-02-06 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	Tonight, the men shall link those swords. ... What the hell was that? OMG phallic symbolism. (Don't tell me I'm he only laughing her ass off at that. Damn, I'm such a kid.) Anyway, thank you so much for translating! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	la_vie_noire 2008-02-06 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	Pages 12-13: You know, I think I've seen this scene before. Really? I didn't catch that. ^^; The naming? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	perhelediel 2008-02-07 04:22 am UTC (link)
	The Kurogane/Tomoyo conversation was adorable. I THINK MY HEART STOPPED FOR A MOMENT WHEN SYAORAN STEPPED OUT IN THOSE CLOTHES. What a great moment. Thanks once again for the translation!! <3 (Btw, yay Gummi Ship theme--I run KHinsider.com, I'm Oathy. KH GEEKS UNITE! <3) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	ashura_sama 2008-02-07 04:57 am UTC (link)
	You're welcome! Haha, the Gummi Ship theme (the Hollow Bastion one) just seems to fit the end of the chapter so well. (笑) (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	two weeks of schmex is the least they could do for leaving us for such a long period of time. >_< maybe three, or forever? and, btw, i must say how much i ♥ your icon? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	suebriquet 2008-02-16 10:11 am UTC (link)
	Awww the part with Kurogane and Tomoyo was sweet. After reading about Watanuki, I feel like I should read the xxxHolic manga. After all, the anime series didn't mention anything about Tsubasa, yet Watanuki is aparently a hero in Tsubasa. (Reply to this)
