Holic 179

[1]
Wata: And...
wh...
what did you think about the taste?

WeirdCookinglady: It was horrible.


[2]
(side note: "I ate the omusubi you made". It's what the lady said, in a wild way. So Watanuki feeling were useless...?)

WeirdCookinglady: After I ate the omusubi..
the taste of the omusubi I made...

Wata: ... uh?


[3]
WeirdCookinglady: Your omusubi...
... had a very gentle taste.
"He made it thinking about me". That's what I thought.
For that, I started to believe in what you said.
If he could make an omusubi like that, who knows...
I made it myself and ate it.


[4]
WeirdCookinglady: I ate...
... and the taste was horrible.
What was pretty was only the shape of it.
It didn't have taste.
It didn't have a peculiar thing.
nor individuality.


[5]
WeirdCookinglady: If we show up on our food,
the inside of me is empty.
I didn't want to know...
... such thing.
No.
Exactly because I knew...
... I didn't want to eat something made by me.


[6]
WeirdCookinglady: After all...
... I...
... more than anyone, hate myself...
(she becomes normal)

[7]
Ex-weirdcookinglady: ... sorry...

Wata: To hurt you... it wasn't a thing I meant.

Ex-weirdcookinglady:I know.
I ate...
... your omusubi.


[8]
Wata: This is...

Ex-weirdcookinglady: It's the omusubi I made.
Neither I know...
no.
It was something I didn't like.
I realize that it was that thing I made for the others eat till now.


[9]
Ex-weirdcookinglady: "should I give this to you?". I passed a whole night thinking about it.
But...
... this is who I am from now.
And if you're going to teach me, so I thought it was better for you to know who I am now...
... sensei.

[10]
Wata: Sensei...?

Ex-weirdcookinglady: Won't you...
... teach me anymore...
... to cook?

Wata: It's not that...
But, could I teach you?

Ex-weirdcookinglady: I wanted to ask you.

[11]
Ex-weirdcookinglady: You're the one who made me realize.
For that.
...the wedding...
I thought in talking with my future husband and cancel it.


[12]
Ex-weirdcookinglady: It's not possible to let him eat everyday this things I make.
But...
... he said he will wait.
Till my flavor be defined.
for that...
I'd be glad if you teach me again, sensei, pleas.

Wata: It's me who is happy!


[13]
Ex-weirdcookinglady: It is!
The payment for the classes...

(Wata grabs the omusubi)

Wata: It's enough.

Ex-weirdcookinglady: But this really doesn't have any taste...

Wata: You agreed me to teach me who you are.
I'll eat ie with pleasure.

Ex-weirdcookinglady: To you, cooking is something really important...

Wata: ... yes.


[14]
Ex-weirdcookinglady: That store...
I heard they used misterious powers to fulfill wishes.
But it's not that.
You came here everyday.
And with that feeling, you made me move.

Wata: No...
it's the only thing I could do...
And if it was Yuuko-san, it sure would be different.

Side note: Even if the world shock in sadness, even if the future shoe us a tragedy, Watanuki got to do what he could do!!

Low note: And where isYuuko-san!? don't miss Tsubasa too inWeekly Shonen Magazine. Continues on the next volume!!

Thanks so much for the TRANSLATION Sei-kun ^___^
HAHAHA~~ I love how you changed from the "WeirdCookinglady" to "ex-WeirdCookinglady" XD XD
yeah... I suppose I sort of did that as my comment too :P Before this chapter, I called it as "Weird cooking lady arc" but I changed that to "cooking lady arc"

Though I am glad she finally face herself... and her being honest with her future husband and even that he is willing to wait for her ^^
strangely I find this chapter to be rather sweet and hopeful in compare with what we were drowning ourselves in the sea of angst and WTF with the recent chapter from TRC (and xxxholic a bit)
Watanuki is just so kind and sweet through the whole time

thanks a lot for the translations Seishiro,I want Clamp to do a largest chapter, this is so short. ;)

Thanks so much for the DL link as well as the translations! ^^

thank you so much or the RAW and the translation :) this chapter was so cute, I loved it ^^ I wounder what will happen now, but I guess it will be something with the egg son, since Doumeki said the time to use it is getting closer .

About time for that weird cooking lady to open up herself I agree, Watanuki is just so sweet and innocent in this chapter X3
Thanks so much for the raw and translations ^O^

Scanlations are up at onemanga

I love this chapter~
When I saw her expression on the first page I was like O_o;
This can not be good.
Watanuki is teh win. And that lady is now giving off "I'm less of a psycho freak than I was before." Vibes =D

I think thats the first time I've ever seen a little blurby thing on the last page saying 'Don't forget to check out Tsubasa published in Shonen magazine." :/

We will have a 3 week break from TRC, and yet they ask, "Don't forget to check out Tsubasa published in Shonen magazine."

Cooking Lady has turned "normal." All settled. Now, lets turn back to the enigmatic egg and the disappearance of Yuuko!!!

Thanks for the chapter!
I like Doumeki's look on his face, when the cooking lady said it tasted horrible...

"If it had been Yuuko-san, I think it would have been very different."

Let me agree with you there, Watanuki. Should she have been Yuuko's client, she would be dead by now. XD
