Watanuki got lost on the way to Yuuko’s place. He was already late because he was hanging out with Doumeki and Himawari. On the street, he met the kid kitsune whose father ran the oden cart. The kitsune gave him oden in thanks for the balloon that he he gave him through the dream buyer. He wondered to Yuuko if it was alright to take it since he gave the kid the balloon as thanks . Yuuko just told her that the kitsune did it because he was really happy. Then he told Yuuko that he had a wish. Yuuko just told him that it was going to cost him, as usual.The price ended up being Yuuko’s bag carrier when she went out shopping, which really pissed Watanuki off especially when she learned that what Yuuko want to buy was a new refrigerator. In the electronics shop, he encountered Raiju, a thunder god. He was attracted to the electronics shop on the way somewhere and got stuck on a tight corner and couldn’t get out. Watanuki got out and in payment, Raiju made all the broken appliances in Yuuko’s home work again.Later that night, Yuuko just asked Raiju where he was headed for, Raiju just told her that it was a good place to go that night since the moon was just right. Yuuko said that they might as well get with him and asked Watanuki to call Himawari and Doumeki.They ended up in the kitsune oden stand, where he met the kid kitsune again and gave him mittens as thanks for a thanks.What a way to end the season: with a filler! The part about Raiju was only very short and uneventful – they might as well have ended the season with Episode 12. Episode 13 was merely an omage of all the characters that passed through xxx-HOLiC from the first season and the current one – both the still living humans (the Internet lady, the twins, the fortune teller, the winged girl and the two guys who worked in the pharmacy who now both work in the electronics shop who were really supposed to be in Legal Drug)– and spirits (the cat lady who brought the lamp for the demon festival, kuda-kitsune, zashiki-warashi and her minions, ame-warashi, neko-musume and the dream-buyer). I’m not really complaining, the episode was nice but quite unnecessary. Episode 12 had enough closure to end it.I’m just wondering why Watanuki is starting to talk like Lelouch on this episode (Yes, I am aware that Fukuyama Jun is Watanuki’s seiyuu) when he never did for the last 12 episodes…All in all, it was a fairly decent season… I like the OP ┌Nobody Knows┘ by Suga Shigao, not so thrilled about the ED ┌Honey Honey┘ by… well, I’m not that into it that I didn’t bother looking it up. I I was extremely disappointed by the Water Gathering arc, hated the Kohane arc, but was OK with the Spider Lady arc and liked the Himawari arc. They really moved a lot of things around that as a fan of both –HOLiC and Tsubasa Chronicles before they made Syaoran out to be a character with a mom complex it pissed me off especially since CLAMP originally made the two stories independent of each other enough since the two series are supposed to be for different demographics (seinen for –HOLiC and shonen for TRC). Anyway, in consideration for that, it was supposed to be no longer necessary for Production IG to change it some more. Well… I have the same opinion of it and the j-drama of Honey and Clover – if you really didn’t know the story, it’s actually good, but it would piss people who do off...

This is not something I really cared to see at two in the morning when I watched this.Himawari finally admitted to Watanuki that she brings bad luck to people around her. Since childhood, a series of bad things have been happening to people who are around her – from a friend’s house burning down to a teacher being stabbed to death by his mistress. (Makoto???) When her grandmother brought her to a Shinto shrine, they learned that she is not haunted or have any strange powers, but is a person who will only bring misfortune to everyone around her, except for her parents who bore her to the world. She said her farewell to Watanuki, but he countered by saying that they will still be eating together in school. Himawari then placed in a special request of a strawberry chiffon cake before going out the door. She made Doumeki, who was seated just outside the door, promise not to tell anyone about the cake. But Doumeki said that the three of them will be eating cake together.It was revealed (but not to Watanuki) that she in exchange for his life, Doumeki paid the price of giving blood of equal amount lost. Outside, Himawari started crying, thanking Watanuki for making her happy to have met him and how happy she was that she paid the price of taking his scars.When Yuuko and Watanuki had a discussion about Himawari, Yuuko told him that the price in exchange to remove her curse is too great because it will cause her all the happiness she will ever feel. She was going to be lonely for the rest of her life. Yuuko handed watanuki an egg in exchange for drawing the water from the well and told him to sleep with it. That morning, it hatched with a bird that he gave to Himawari, saying that it was born for her sake. Watanuki ended up naming it Tanpopo who Himawari couldn’t decide a name for it.…but Tanpopo is so cute!Finally! They released the subs for this one. The two groups who have been doing this show since episode 1 suddenly bailed out on the second to the last episode. Not that I didn’t know what was going to happen that I didn’t blog it when it was released, but this show has made so much changes from the manga version, I didn’t want to speculate on what happens anymore.Well… I’m over the fact that they omitted all Tsubasa Chronicles crossovers (three people actually paid for Watanuki’s recovery – Syaoran included). I have to say that this episode was really enjoyable, meaning considering all the changes they made in the storyline to delete all possible crossovers with TRC. This would have actually made a decent last episode. Actually, with the way that they ended the episode, it seemed like a last episode, but there’s another one coming, which is about the electric guy whose story I read once and never looked at again so I don’t remember it much anymore. .
