"xxxHolic Vol. 16" by ClampI love "xxxHolic" because of its magic realism. Not much happened in this volume, still, reading it, it felt like reliving a dream. Clamp has an amazing ability to draw you into the story.
So, Watanuki decided to keep up the shop and wait for Yuko-san - even if it meant he would never grow old and he could never leave the shop again. Domeki's look when Watanuki told him about his decision. And while Domeki is growing older, he keeps coming back to the shop, day after day, to watch out for Watanuki. It's too bad that Clamp didn't include Watanuki's early days as the shop owner. We were only told that accepting a lower price for the fulfillment of a wish from a customer hurt Watanuki, we haven't actually seen it. It's too bad, I think it would've had a bigger impact if we were shown, not just told. But I'm glad that Watanuki still has Haruka-san who remains unchanging just like he...
One thing - I wonder about the egg Domeki received from Yuko-san. How will he use it?
