| This was probably the best anime episode of xxxHolic I've seen. Simply excellent. I kind of wished that they wouldn't even hint at Yuuko returning, I was liking the idea of Watanuki being in charge. |
emashu said: Well, that savage girl is possesed by this spirit called Zuwhatever and this Zuwhatever spirit talks to the camera and asks Watanuki to assist her in taking over completely, and she states "The compensation will be repaid through this girl's mouth" So when Watanuki helps the girl, she takes the camera and pays the "compensation" she stated earlier Now I'm unsure about this but Either she used Yuuko's voice Or she had Yuuko herself say it through that girl Or Yuuko returned. Now it makes sense! I got tearied when Yuuko's voice said, "I'm home, watanuki" "welcome back....yuuko."..... ;( =] It feels like Doumeki and Watanuki are married =P |
jekk said: It feels like Doumeki and Watanuki are married =P Sure does! xd The age and even height difference between them felt kind of weird, but psychically they are both adults. I think that they're much closer now. |
| xxxHolic always generates a great atmosphere and this OVA was no different. I love how it switches from comedy with Mokona and Watanuki to the creep supernatural. 4.5/5 |
 |
jekk said: It feels like Doumeki and Watanuki are married =P Couldn't agree more^^ Watanuki gave me a nosebleed when Doumeki opened the door and saw him laying there XD Why do you hate clamp about Himawari? I'm happy for her^^ They had to get rid of her somehow for them to be like a married couple XD But if they find Doumeki a girlfriend or something, I will hate them forever >:( By the way, Watanuki's seriousness is cool but he's sad. You can feel it all over when you watch this ova. If Yuuko says she's back, I hope he can leave the shop and carry on with his life ^^ |

| I thought this was amazing as is all xxxholic anime. I did get slightly confused at moments, especially what the wish that watanuki granted was. However, i think it was because the subs on the one i watched weren't great and a lot of the sentences didn't make sense. Guess that just means i'll have tor re-watch when proper subs come out XD Still i hope Yuuko is back, i think she has to the best Clamp character ever ... |

emashu said: unclesnapple said: emashu said: Either she used Yuuko's voice Or she had Yuuko herself say it through that girl Or Yuuko returned. So basically nobody knows. Super. Thanks for nothing, CLAMP. XD Just believe whichever choice is most comfortable for you or most reasonable. Mine would be that Yuuko's actually back, because otherwise she wouldn't say "I'm back", instead she would say "Hi Watanuki" or something of that manner :o Agreed, and the fact that Yuuko might show up on Watanukis birthday makes a lot more sense. As for Himawari she mentioned that she would forever be indebted to Watanuki and that could possibly mean that he has removed her curse, making her able to marry somebody without any disastrous results. |

muskee said: I didnt undertand the part when doumeki got an egg, wtf? is it another pet like the bird that watanuki gave himawari?? In the previous episodes, Yuko gave Doumeki an egg, stating that when the time was right, he ought to use it for Watanuki's sake. We are still unaware of the contents inside of the egg. However, since Yuko demonstrated its utmost importance, Doumeki hangs on to it for safe keeping until necessary. I suggest watching the previous OVAs/seasons in order to understand the egg's purpose. Fureon said: I like how the beginning is a downer and the ending is really uplifting. I second this. Did anyone else get slight, very subtle chills after hearing Yuko's voice in the final few minutes of the OVA? I hope this truly is not "the end". |

| Weird episode, I'm going to have to watch Tsubasa and read the manga to both Holic and Tsubasa to understand this ._. It was an interesting episode...just a confusing one. |
     |
| this ova took a while to get thru to my head...but in the end , it was awesome... yuuko's demise was emotional , i didnt want her to go away like that wat the hell is watanuki doing with 2 girls in his bed.. .ahahah the daughter girl was creepy , especially wen she attacks the professor . the professor's reaction is EPIC LOL.... himawari got married...WTF... looks like mugetsu has found himself a date (hahahahhah) YUUKO IS BACK.........YIPPEEEEEEE |
| Like the ending but it makes me crave for more. I want to know what happen after. Hoping for a new season probably. |
| so... next episode comes out next year... i just hope it doesnt mean the manga will end along with that OVA >w> |
| I saw in some previous post that the next episode will be coming out next year??? That's waay too looong! T_T They have fused some essential parts of the manga into one episode, but I think it's still comprehensible. but I don't remember that there's was such an arc in the original manga? |
 |
| Does manga give any answers to those changes, that happened in previous 10 years, i wonder. in the manga its four years that went by. |
 |
| Oh maaaaaan! Now that I've seen it I feel like watching all previous seasons again T.T It reminded me how much I like xxxHolic and Watanuki and the pipe-fox :] Well...I liked the ep, but I'm not hiding that I was a little disappointed...because of the poor story...I didn't like the constant presence of Doumeki, and that everything was played in the shop. And the reappearence of Yuuko so soon... That means the second ep will revolve around her. I do like her, but it would be much more interesting and better if she appeared in the end of the second episode ;p Buuuuuut... I did love what happened to Watanuki. It really suits him and is making him even more cool and sexy and adorable ^^ :3_ |
 |
| Himawari being married=biggest wtf moment |
| That was one of the saddest things I've watched, I think. Watanuki ;___; |
 |
| So sad, but so awesome *__* This was beautifully done! I wish I had some better subs, but I got most of what they were saying. Poor Watanuki ;__; |
| I totally loved this OVA, Watanuki was so cool ^^ And wow there was even a "fanservice" shot of him :P I didn't got everything but still it was realy good, I hope Watanuki will stay in charge of the shop :) I liked it that he was more nature now but he was still a bit childish like with the tea ^^ Can't wait for the next ova :D |
chibidee said: Does manga give any answers to those changes, that happened in previous 10 years, i wonder. in the manga its four years that went by. currently it already does. Manga is already past the timeline point in which this OVA happened and Yuuko is NOT back yet. Thus one can rightfully assume that it was just a voice that spirit did as payment, which makes the ending go from uplifting to bittersweet. |
 |
| Did anybody else freak out in joy when they heard Yuuko's voice? I did :) Overall, this episode was good. |
| weew. i agree. the first scene was really sad. but that's what is supposed to happen.. ;( anyway, the new watanuki. (hot,sexy.cool type) is great!! :)) its good that him and doumeki are still the same, love their friendship. aha. mokona is still the same and maru and moro are so sweet.. :) kohane~chan became a really beautiful chracter here..didn't expect himawari to be married.. i wonder, who her husband is.. maybe he's like doumeki, unaffected to her curse.. good ending for her.. the request this time is good, same as before. the ending was GREAT! it made my cry. really. the scene where yuuko said, "Im home, Watanuki." and watanuki played that over and over again and in the last scene., he replaied, "Welcome Back, yuuko~san" ... waaaaaaaaaaaaa! and the ending song made it worse. LOL. Really XXXHOLIC never fail to amaze me.. :) |
| Err I don't read the manga but... what happened to Watanuki x Himawari T^T, ughh poor Watanuki I wonder what happened between them and one more thing didn't Himawari have the badluck thingy?? O_O Oh well although its pretty good, this episode raised a lot of question right from the start :( |
| This really interested me. To be honest, I was really sad that Yuko died. Watanuki didn't seem as lively, but boy was he a pimp in bed XD He had Maru and Moro sleep with him :D (I think he slept with them earlier in the series, but he got a kiss on the cheek from each of them in ep 1 and 2.) EPIC. Loved the OVA, it kept me interested until the end. The animation improved ever since Shunmuki, too. I like how Watanuki changed, but he is still stubborn, keeping his childish side concealed a little, but you can just tell it's in there. I must say I'll miss the old moronic clutz. But I like Watankuki's character either way. The last farewell to the series I give out; Keep on pimpin' Watanuki. |

| Awww Yuko! It was great for me to see Doumeki and Kohane again. And omg with Watanuki! I got a totaly different feeling for him :D I want more explanation and everything of course. Loved the end. <3 I wanna see Himawari!! |
| lol himiwari married sounds like 100% bs |
 |
| I dident get all this but it looks like yuuko-san is back? And Watanuki and maru and moro was so cute when they where in bed<3 |
| Ten years later Watanuki became a pedophile lol |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Wow damn this is what I was looking for with this Anime, I wasn't expecting to much after the first two season where okey but nothing to overwhelming but this is really great! I could easily watch 12 episodes of this if they keep up with the same quality of story development! Really awesome first episode the beginning and ending where brilliant! Lets see what the next episode gives us! 9/10 |
 |
| Well, for me, out of all the XXXholic titles Rou was the worst for me. |
| Dies Irae! :) |
 (Source: otakuconfessions.tumblr.com) ^exactly this Also: - scene with Watanuki, Maru and Moro in bad was cute - Himawari probably married someone with strong power like Doumeki all the rest make me confused... |
    |
| i dont understand how is himawari can still married? what about her bad luck? whether her husband such as doumeki that are not affected by bad luck? still confusing and poor watanuki he doesnt change at all |
Ziepth said: i dont understand how is himawari can still married? what about her bad luck? whether her husband such as doumeki that are not affected by bad luck? still confusing and poor watanuki he doesnt change at all Her husband can't enter the shop, meaning he's the same as Doumeki (at least how he used to be). He must have a really strong aura and has no wishes of which anyone but himself can fulfill. |
| I rarely revisit threads, so if you're after a reply you should PM me or post a comment on my profile. |
| It's really difficult to understand the ending of this OVA without going through the Manga. But i really enjoyed it nonetheless. |
 |
| GAH!!!! YUUKO!!!!! Man she is one of my favorite characters, if it is really her then don't tease Watanuki like that. |
 |
| The opening scene broke my heart. The ending scene broke my heart no less. Just what happened? I hate that there is a ten-year gap with no details. On another note, Watanuki looked hilarious in Yuko-san's kimono. He can never fill her place. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
