And YES, there IS a crossover with TRC last chapter! :)

Thanks for the RAW >.< *just download and read it*
WOW... Sakura-mama... golden phase "Zettai daijoubu... yo" is said in there THAT is not expected but is awesome.
I wonder if Watanuki started to have "subconscious" memories of his parents or his relationship with them since he mentioned it as "Those people, I-I know them... but ... " and start panicking [I think is more of 'he know he recognize them, but at the same time... he couldn't figure out who they are. "]
I suppose the time flow is really different between what's going on in TRC and xxxholic... since in TRC, all of these happened probably on the "same day" but in xxxholic... Yuuko has been gone for over a month already

ETA: haha~~ My JPN guessing skill is NOT bad at all XD XD since I said all those comments before the "translation" was being posted out :P

I updated my first post with a link to the eng trans.
Watanuki is definitely a lot kinder to Doumeki lately ^^ And yeah, Doumeki wonders what he is supposed to do with the egg...we are wondering too!!! >.<
And yes, it indeed seems like his body felt a connection with the two people he unintentionally saw.
CCS|Sakura saying 'Don't worry... it will be all right.' is so like her but also...so anti climatic ^^;; I went 'Hoe?!' when I read that line aha~
As for CCS|Syaoran...not smiling and not saying a word, no surprise from the tsundere father~

What? The 177th chapter is out? That is so awesome! I must go check it out. Thank you so much for sharing those links. :)

That was suprising!
It's so sweet when Watanuki is looking for Yuuko, to find his answers...

I was very surprised when my friend pointed this out to me on onemanga. Not complaining though, it's a random scene but a very welcome one, and seeing Sakura say that has made me happy.
Is it just me, or does the art seem to have gone up a notch compared to the past couple of chapters? Everything in this chapter just feels nicer to me.

I saw this at school, but couldn't download it T___T! But it was worth the wait~!! I'm not in anyway complaining, but how is it out so early when it's not suppose to be until the 30th? o.o WOW~ if every chapter was like that all the time it'd be so awesome ...XD! Thanks for the links! ^^

I thnk that is very cute! I really hope Watanuki-kun is able to find Yuuko-sama soon.

wow, i love early chapters~
things are definetly picking up for xxxHolic!
Watanuki's look when he rememberd Yuuko and Mokona was heartbreaking! i also felt so sad for him when he was panicking.. he knows those people but he cant tell who they are!!

I know! That part made me so sad. I hope everything works out well for poor Watanuki-kun.

Woah, this is early!! The splash is so pretty.

Finally a cross over chapter! This is a bittersweet chapter.

Aw.. Hopefully, Yuuko is not really disappeared!
Hang in there Watanuki >.<

OMG! That was so fast!!! Thanks for the links!

EDIT: OH MY GOD! That was the cutest chapter ever! I'm so happy right now after seeing our Mama saying that "everything is going to be all right"!!! I'm speechless!!

Thanks, CuteSherry-san! Edited your post with the current RAWs/Translations/Schedule available. I'll update it once more when we have ChibiYuuto's "CLAMP News!!" from April.

As for the chapter itself... Omg. CCSyaoran's aspect is kinda different from "Syaoran's"... O_o As well as CCSakura's differs from Sakura-hime a little. I want Tsubasa 217 now~ No early scans for us? ;;

Oh my gosh, when Watanaki was so scared wondering who those people were, it's like he knows they're his parents somewhere, but can't register that fact.

I'm guessing the egg has something to do with TRC. I'm hoping it is, maybe it has the power to restore Clow! XD But Yuuko, where is Yuuko? We see her in TRC, but where is she?

But wow, CCS Syaoran and Sakura were so calm! Sakura's smile when she said "Everything will be alright" Priceless, :3 ^.^ It'll be a great scene to color. So short, can't wait for the next chapter. I have a feeling because of this, TRC is going to have alot of CCS action.

that's really good chapter,yay,there is a crossover with trc.i fel so sad for watanuki,he tries to look for yuko.i think yuko in the dream world.

I feel SO bad for watanuki here, but at least he's with Doumeki who will help him calm down because running around looking for Yuuko is probably a lost cause...though this has got to be nearing the end of holic. It feels like the climax because of this one chapter.

Sakura's invincibility spell made me tear up a little. I grew up watching and reading Sakura around the age of 12 so it's been a while since I've seen that and it's been "new"

I really loved this chapter to death :) I am so happy to see CCS|SxS again, but I feel sorry for Watanuki, he knows they are his parents, but he can't believe they look EXACT the same like son|Syaoran and little Sakura he always thought of *close friends* ? . Just imagine yourself seeing yur parents looking exactly like some friends of you and particularry beeing jounger than you lol, wow what a mess . Of course he is all confused .
As for Yuuko, we all know that she is in a line between life and death, but WHERE EXACTLY she is, I guess that is something we don't exactly know yet, but maybe in some kind of *dreamworld* ?

It's so great ta see our beloved CCS couple again. When Sakura said to Watanuki "Everything will be alright" , Chibi felt so overjoyed It means there is some hope there, CCS couple are going to be ok and it may be possible that we shall get a happy ending n__n.

But fer now, the only person we are worry about is Yuuko. Where could Yuuko be? Chibi thinks Watanuki is searching for Yuuko because he probably wanted to ask Yuuko about SXS couple. And poor Watanuk, hopelfully, he will soon come to realise about his parents.i

wow, I wasn't expected chp 177 would come out so squick XD, thanks alot for the source =)

Yeh, I so agree with you on this. I like the fact that TRC is now crossing over with Holic and now, we are getting closure to the whole meanings of Sakura's dream, the egg and and all that.
I'm really surprised to see, Sakura and Syaoran were so calm. I think they knew, what's going to happen next and sure, everything is going to be aright, for their son and for them.
Anyway, I can't wait to read TRC chp217 X3 because it's going to tell you a lot more

OMG! I didn't remember CCS!Sakura's phrase.... I really love this chapter

Wow! This chapter was awesome. . .It kinda made me want to cry a bit. . .poor Watanuki.

But I was just thinking. . .CLAMP said that one of the characters would have an unhappy ending. . .could that person be Yuuko? D:

I hope FWR is the one with the extremely unhappy ending. >.<

Sakura and Syaoran both look quite calm - although I've noticed Syaoran's difficulty in even semi-smiling when peering at Watanuki. It's certainly CCS Syaoran, with his seriousness coming into play!

Sakura and Syaoran do look different from their TRC counterparts. Sakura, although being younger; still looks grown up! And the "everything will be alright" is quite reassuring! She looks beautiful!

Although I just can't help but wonder how "everything will be alright" given the lives lost, and the curren circumstances...

Exactly to what I thought. Now Yuuko has dissapeared, and so many lives have been lost and the situation they're in, how is it possible that everything will be alright? I feel like Clamp was just toying with us
