xxxHolic Chapter 198
I think CLAMP's moving into the realm of professional trolls.
So finally we get to know about Himawari. My first reaction was "Yay! She's alive!" followed closely by "Yay! She's still talking to Watanuki!", but then it starts to sink in.
Was it really necessary, CLAMP, to send her to a university so far away? She'd be all alone there, because of the curse. It would make more sense if she went to a school closer to Doumeki and Watanuki. I could understand if she did it as some sort of punishment to Watanuki, but Himawari isn't like that.
The last page killed me when Himawari says "...I suppose there's no chance of you giving them to me in person". Poor Himawari.
Plus if Himawari was away at university the entire time, why did it take so long for that to be mentioned? Watanuki or Doumeki could have casually mentioned that at some point long ago. Sure fans would still be disappointed but we wouldn't have had these months of waiting for Himawari to show up.
