According to Raw-Paradise, Tsubasa – RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE – will have its final chapter published on Shonen Magazine #44, which goes on sale on September 30.
The final chapter will include colored pages.
Raw-Paradise’s scanning sources come from people who get hold of manga magazines in advance, the announcement will probably be made in this or next week’s issue of Shonen Magazine.
If that is true, I’ll be SPEECHLESS (BUT OH SO HAPPY =DDDDDDD).
28 volumes!
28 volumes!
28 volumes!
It all makes sense people! No color pages so far (because they were saving them for the end!), the artbook coming out simultaneously, it all fits! =DDD
…alright, no more celebration, let’s wait for the official announcement =/
Thank you to EVERYONE who poked me about this (I got poked on LJ, on Twitter, thanks you guys! XDD)
Update: It’s official now, here is a preview from the last page of Chapter 231, confirming Chapter 232 as the final chapter with color pages and extra pages:
Thanks syaoranmew and cutesherry for letting me know about this! =D Credits for the image go to Heiji-sama.

OMG!! WHAT? O______________O
Does that mean that only two chapters more and it will end? O_____O
So, you were right 28 volumes and that’s why they’re releasing a second artbook along with the 28th volume o.o It makes sense.
I want to know the end but I don’t want it to end T______T

Do you think Seishirou and the vampire twins will end their story in Holic? That’s the only solution I see…

From the spoilers of TRC 231 which are *already!* being leaked online, chapter 231 last page says “Next chapter must see! The future of Syaoran and Sakura with extended color-pages! An intense Final chapter!”
From this, should we conclude they will just skip EVERYTHING and ONLY shows what happen with SxS in the ‘future’, after the World is rewound to Normal? @___@
And it looks like Clamp’s announcement about learning the reason behind Syaoran Li going back brusquely to HK won’t be revealed in TRC ^^;; Another future manga with cross over with CCS then? Or where Clamp plain lying? ^^;;

Will they just skip everything and just show us what happen to SxS? And which SxS? Both couples? How could they both ‘survive’ going back to ‘normality’ if they are plainly not even supposed to exist? More reincarnation? And Mokona/Fye/Kurogane? The Universe’s order? Clow Kingdom? The whole symbology of the Wings? Clow Reed role in all this? How did CCS|Sakura knew about all this and gave her staff? FWR back story? It’s just too much ^^;;

Yeah, most likely there will be tons of “small” (but IMPORTANT) questions that will be left unanswered. CCS!Sakura’s staff, for example, we might not find out, at least in Tsubasa, the reason how she knew or why it was so important for clone!Sakura.
But I refuse to believe that the PLOT won’t be fully solved after the series is over. CLAMP have done crazy things with Tsubasa but to give it a proper ending is the LEAST they can do xD
I have no idea how they will fit the vampire twins plot, for example, but at the same time, they must know what they are doing. They had 28 volumes to plan it out, and 6 years.
For first I will wait for the final chapter and THEN I will rant about what was left unanswered XD

i remember a long time ago reading something about CLAMP stating that it would be necessary to read HOLIC to understand the ending of TRC, and vice versa. i’m very disappointed that they’re rushing the ending like this, especially since a lot of fans want a more dramatic ending *coughkurofaycough* honestly i don’t think that they’re going to continue the vampire subplot…it’s just..yeah…like Inma said before, kamui and subaru are just cursed to be chased around forever and seishirou is cursed to never reach his goal. at least there are fanfics and fanart! lol

Well this final volume was very slow, they were holding all the secrets for the very final chapter, that’s more of an editorial decision than CLAMP’s (they usually ask the authors to hold the secrets until the very last chapter).

Ten years with Sakura and Syaoran! And it is going to end so suddenly! .__.
Hopefully, there will be a happy end…I mean: “Everything gonna be all right!”?

One big story
I’m going to miss Tsubasa, but not as much as I will miss xxxHOLiC.
I started reading with HOLiC simply I liked the storyline a lot more than Tsubasa, which frankly confused me for the first 3 years and couldn’t stomach it.
I think it was mentioned once (anyone can correct me on this) but HOLiC and Tsubasa were meant to be read together when both series were very near their respective endings, simply because of how both plotlines are intertwined with one another. I think both series were described as ONE WHOLE series, split into two separate stories.
I think a part of the ending is pushed by the publishers/editors but another is by CLAMP themselves, knowing that they should wrap up the series (since for the last few volumes, they kind of stretched it). They also don’t regularly update HOLiC as much as Tsubasa until recently (and I mean this by at least a year ago), so it indicates that both series are coming into completion.
Hopefully, CLAMP won’t feel the need to “rush” the HOLiC ending as well. I STILL WANT TO KNOW WHAT SO IMPORTANT ABOUT THAT EGG!!

Speaking of Mangettes, is there any news regarding when it’ll start?

The text in the speech bubble looks like it says “to the place where we belong,” and the text on the bottom is something like “Everyone read the next issue! What is Syaoran and Sakura’s future? Extra and colored pages in the explosive last chapter!” But that’s just a rough translation; my Japanese is nowhere near perfect. |D;

Wow. I’m shocked. This leads me to fear that they will just do a whole ‘time reset’ so that none of it will have ever happened, and Fai and Kuro-pon will be happy with their families and both Sakura and Syaorans will somehow meet anyway…
It’s a small fear though; I expect they won’t end it like that. To be honest, as long as I get a satisfying for Fai and Kurogane, I’ll be content ^_^
LikeLike
I agree! A complete time reset where Fay is an only child and Kuro-sama grows up with both parents etc would be a happy ending of sorts, but it’s like all the character development and relationship building throughout the series happened for nothing! What I’m most worried about is that they’ll skip out on those two in the end and only explain what happens to Syaoran and Sakura, but they couldn’t do that, right? ;;
LikeLike
If they don’t do a reset I’m sure we’ll get an ending for Kurogane and Fai of some sort, even if it’s just a page showing Tomoyo welcoming them home. I really hope Fai will stay in Nihon XD I have a secret fear that CLAMP will send him on a quest to find a world in which his brother didn’t die. I’d be annoyed if that happened because I think it untrue to his character after all the development he’s gone through.
LikeLike
I hope so too! And what with the vampire thing and the fact that he literally can’t return to his world, I’m pretty sure he’ll end up there if things keep going the way it looks like they’re going. And I don’t think he’ll go searching for his brother — if what Syaoran said is right and Fay wasn’t supposed to be a twin, there won’t even be another to find.
LikeLike
There are certain things concerned after FWR’s death:
– What will be happened to Syaoran and his father (take note, whatever happens to FWR will be the same on two)
– How about Watanuki? Will he dead as same as Syaorans and FWR?
– And most important: WILL THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER?!
Sadly, the FINALE of TRC means my FINALE of being an anime fanatic.

Shocked.
Let’s think, there’s this black world in Tsubasa where Yuuko was before her death… Well, maybe it’s the Otherworld where Ioryogi came from, maybe everything is gonna be alright once Kobato’s wish is granted, maybe she’s daughter of Sakura and Syaoran(there are 297647989764 of them, it’s not that complicated xD).
The thing that really upsets me is that we’ll have not enough pages to learn what happened to all the minor characters, I wanted to know about the gay vampires and their hunters, I wanted to know about the people in other dimensions, I wanted a flashback telling us the story of FWR (if he’s Watanuki that is Syaoran, or rather the same existence xxxHOLiC is nothing more than a big flashback in real time – lol), Clow and Yuuko.
I may be wrong but I think Clamp mixed many stories to create those.
Example: Books of Magic from Neil Gaiman and other authors:
Timm Hunter is a young boy with a gigantic potential for magic, he can turn into the biggest wizard the world has ever seen. In the first arc of stories Timm Hunter travels around the time, space, places etc. The main thing is: He’s not the son of the person who raises him, in the first story he won the “egg of the world” wich has the power to create a whole new world (let’s see what use Doumeki will make of his egg), he sells his memories to demons to get some stuff (in the end he has lost almost all of his memories), and there are tons of other similar things like: There’s a Sucumbus in love with Timm Hunter (there’s Zashiki Warashi in love with him either, despite Zashiki is a very pure spirit), there’re lots of european mythical beings, otherwise there’re lots of Japanese mythical beings, these beings are trying to get his magical powers… the same thing.
Of course there are lots of different things, new things but still the resemblances are way too strong to let it pass by without a comment. Books of magic are denser, darker than HOLiC but I still love HOLiC.

I’ve been following TRC since it started and it’s going to end in two chapters? >:T *huff* I really, really, REALLY hope CLAMP is capable of answering all of the questions in TWO CHAPTERS.
Actually, I’m more sad than angry…I’ve sorta…grown up with TRC, so I’ll be saying good-bye to a huuuge part of my life after it ends. u_u Not to mention KuroFay was one of the only things that kept me reading in the later chapters and I don’t think they’ll even get a proper ending. 😦
In any case, thanks for the heads-up. At least I have 2 weeks to prepare for the mourning that is to occur…OTL (and sorry for the rant-thing ;; )

You should never wish for your favorite manga to never end. I wished that for X and look what happened xD
THAT’s Clamp-fans new absolute commandment!! XDDDD… well, about all the other stuff, yeah, at first I was like “OMGWTFBBQ!! X_X” too, but reading the 3 pages of comments here, I kind of settle my flow of emotions. Yeah, FWR is already dead, and the last chapter is going to be 30 pages so I think with a little of careful work, Clamp can still do a very good and HAPPY ending for this wonderful series 😀
oh, and yeah too, Im more a Holic fan than Tsubasa so… Im still more nervious for Kimi-kun than for the others :S… btw, I noticed that none have say someting about this before: if the worlds r going back to normal, o rewind itself or whatever, then that means than only 1 Shaoran can stay? or maybe none? o.o cause u see, their existence is a endless circle, isnt it? one been the origin of the other o.O so maybe that’s why they got stuck in that black world… and Watanuki, being like the crossing point where that cirlce start, is the only one with the answer to the Shaorans future…
ok, now Im even MORE worry for Kimi-kun!! X_X… argh! CLAMP, BETTER FOR U TO CONTINUE GOHOU DRUG AFTER THIS!!! >O
