April 1st in Japan, I decided to read the chapter....
The very moment I saw 3 Syaoran on the splash page I got a very bad feeling, but when I saw the actual chapter it was a complete downfall.
This has turned
absurd.
There is no 'this is Clamp's genius plan' or 'Clamp have an idea' or nothing in there, so let's make it clear: if at this point of the manga, Clamp seriously want to establish that CCS|Sakura&Syaoran are not TRC|Syaoran's parents, the whole story has turned out completely and plainly ridiculous.
Thankfully, taking in consideration this twist really make no sens at all, it's very likely that what we've seen in this chapter should indeed be an encounter between the same 'Sakura' from the same world but 2 different moment in time...
......
....is what I would like to say, but it's not that easy
If we really suppose that Adult|Sakura physically encountered her past self, the question that immediately arise is: how?
From what I saw, it's Teenager|Sakura who made the first move of offering the staff: how did she meet her adult self? Why? How come? Is there such a think as a power to travel in the future and physically meet your own self? Ok the staff was used as a price, but it's not like it was a major thing in the story either, furthermore, where did Adult|Sakura's staff went then? She lost it? It was destroyed?...etc...Furthermore, if teenager|Sakura says she can still goes one without the staff, why would her adult self (in theory more powerful then her past self) would need it for then?
It's really really REALLY unfortunate to say, but it's more plausible, given the past events we saw in both Holic and TRC those past years and like the translation says, to consider the possible encounter of 2 Sakura from 2 different worlds who would have met inside a Dream (and we know that the objects you took inside the Dream can come with you back in reality) better then Teenager|Sakura encountering who knows how her adult self (as of now, we never witnessed encounters between past/future of characters from the one same world) for something as 'little' as giving her staff and throwing an "<i>everything is gonna be alright</i>" as bonus -___-
And it's also worrisome that Adult|Sakura referred to the "
everything is gonna be alright" sentence, as something passed to her from someone else, while it supposedly should be her own line too...
I won't list the reasons why it should be CCS|Sakura, Yamisakura did a great job with it above and pointed out very strong points ^___^ So hey! Someone had to give the bad points of this chapter! *and I took the job*
I will cross
*hard* my fingers and I will
seriously concentrate and
sincerely believe those 2 are CCS|SxS, else TRC is simply a goner a this point, as said before: absurd.
As for the reason why father and son are perfect copies of one another, and same with the 2 Sakura, I gave up on understanding that part -__-
EDIT: I might have taken this whole scandalous chapter a whole lot better if Clamp actually graced us with a shot of an adult|Syaoran but....they didn't!
EDIT2: I just thought about something else -> The mystery behind Yuuko saying she got Sakura's staff but never met her is resolved : Yuuko said she never met the owner of the staff...if we consider we got 2 different Sakura, it means that Adult|Sakura gave Yuuko the staff as a price but Yuuko logically *and truthfully* said it was not the 'owner of the staff' she met ;__;
ARRRGGG!! I will stop thinking, only 'bad stuffs' comes to mind!!
That's it! Decided! TRC|Syao parents
are CCS|SxS until an irrefutable proof of the contrary is given, which has yet to happen. Ah~ I feel better now ^^
