Chapitre 190 - Those Who Know The World

Ohohoho I see how it is Clamp.

It’s Gay Vampire Photoshoot Part 2: this time with The Problematic fave of all time.

Aka IN HIS CLUTCHES. 

A lot of the imagery is very similar to last time we did this (187?), so I won’t go back over that, but what I WILL say is having these two pose together here in the final arc with their entire storyline completely unresolved is SUCH a power move! Go Clamp give us nothing!

Then again, the splash text reads something along the lines of:

They knew that the time

when they would see each other once more

was not too far away

So maybe it will happen! Either way you can SEE who's excited about this and who isn't.

It's GOOD. The visible contrast!! Seishirou is cradling Subaru’s arm and leaning into his touch, clearly happy to be there, but Subaru is not mirroring his smile - and their faces aren't aligned either, they're at different angles despite both looking right at the camera. Subaru’s not even trying to touch him - Seishirou is drawing him in, forcing the distance between them to close.

Their visual styles don’t align either - they both wear black with white accents, but Seishirou’s are straight lines while Subaru’s are all curves and angles. They’re mismatched, and it’s easy to see that only one of them actually wants this scenario to occur. And it’s WILD that Seishirou can make even THIS pose look predatory. He’s INSIDE the circle of Subaru’s vampire claws. He’s INCHES away from an accidental finger twitch slicing him right open. Subaru doesn’t even want to BE there, even as he hovers over him like the archetypal vampire predator that his twin was so good at emulating. And EVEN THEN, despite the powerlessness that the position should bring, Seishirou is still completely in control here. HE’S pulling Subaru closer and taking the affection he wants, even though it would traditionally be the other way around.

Poor Subaru!

Happy birthday to Sakurazuka Seishirou!

He would be 57 years old today (11/22/1965).

I’ve always like Subaru during the in between era (post TB pre X) in which he wore simple, relaxed fit white tee and jeans. It’s a nice contrast with suit wearing Seishirou!

That Bob’s Burgers bit, but it’s Fuuma hassling Seishirou

Seishirou: I just realized something. I had a bad childhood.

Fuuma: Yeah, I know. 

Seishirou: What do you mean you know?

Fuuma: Look at you.

Seishirou: What do you mean, “Look at me?”

Fuuma:

According to the wiki Tenri had forty siblings he had to kill in order to become head of the Hīragi family but (that we know of) he only has like four kids (not including Shinya who is adopted and would probably not be able to rise to that same power) 💀

So like why doesn't he have more kids??? Why did he have so many siblings??? Did Tenri choose quality over quantity or like 🤨 maybe he's doing that Dad thing where he makes shit up because who's gonna say it's a lie??? His siblings??

CLAMP fans be like “i was felling really depressed so I decided to re-read X and TB” like these aren’t the most depressive manga ever written.

Bitch you need therapy.

Listen at this rate I would be SHOCKED if we still had time to see that reunion in the chapters we have left. That feels like a whole arc full of potential content and we’re currently Full Steam Ahead on rescuing Sakura. 

Unless the specific time we need to wait for isn’t for quite a while still? So we still have time for other worlds first?

I don’t know if I want that, exactly.

I mean she’s right. 

For example, my desire to not see Kyle Rondart constantly gives me happiness right up until he appears on stage and then it is just the Agonies all over again.

Happy Valentine’s!

In classic (or not so classic) shoujo manga there’s always the choice of a nice guy or bad boy for the protagonist’s love interest arc. In Tokyo Babylon they are the same guy 😂

Took me awhile to decided on the background colors. Here are the Alts:

Mokona: There! It’s Seishirou! Kurogane: Of course! That’s the look of a murderer! Kusanagi: Huh? Hup! Mokona: Where is Kurogane going? Kurogane: He’s over there, and the brat hasn’t come back yet, and the sun is setting. Now I act on my own!
