did you see that hint with Kobato - like 'not existing'? i mean at the end when Ioryogi said something about 'have to part with Kobato' and scene Fujimoto&Kobato under umbrella - there are only Fujimoto footsteps!

You mean she wasn't a "spirit" to begin with? I thought they covered that in episode 1 o.O?


What? I don't remember anything about Kobato being a spirit...

this is just my theory, but i think kobato is a spirit/angel of an already dead person, but couldn't go to the heaven/wherever she's trying to go to. that's y she's collecting the "candies" as a payment to go to that place. and ioryogi was sent to help her as his punishment for going against the god or whatever the authoritative figure is.

and one argument to support this is how kobato is not allowed to take her hat off, because of possible "angel's ring/halo" hidden under it. if ppl see that, the cover would blow. just my two cents =P

Im sensing big drama in the next episodes
crying Kobato makes me cry

As Kobato sang her song after she and Fujikoto made up .
I thought it was an awkward timing.

I feel bad for Domoto...he realized Kobato might be starting to like Fujimoto and had to give her up T^T Aww. Fujimoto's probably starting to feel something too.

^Agreeing! I feel so bad for Domoto DDD': I wouldn't mind if it was him and Kobato... In the end, he's the one that's alone. ;___; And also, I think they outdid themselves with the snow - It really was pretty. Like everyone else though, I knew she was going to sing. >_> It's nice and all, but she should sing another song....

And even though this is my first CLAMP series (to watch/read, mannn I'm behind lol - newbie...) I recognized people from Tsubasa! Cool. :3

I think maybe Kobato has some unfinished buisness with somone (or a place as Kobato said) , this still assumes that she is a kind of Spirit/Ghost (if that scene with no footsteps is true), or perhaps she has made a great sin that she need to repay by the candies.
Who knows, I hope we'll find out by the end (is the manga still going ?).

The Tsubasa gang is coming that means she has a feather under her hat !

OH! This was so pretty! The best episode everrrr! The whole snow scene was beautiful, and Doumoto is such a sweetheart. It's so cute to see Kobato start developing feelings for Fujibato, that she's completely unaware of.

AND OMG FAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! CLAMPPPPPPP!

Enjoyed this episode, and as others have mentioned, good to get some more background info on Fujimoto. Domoto is really such a nice guy and, if possible, Hiroshi Kamiya as VA seemed even more gentle and smoothing this episode. Kobato and him actually make a really nice couple but Fujimoto works so hard, and has been through so much, I want him to find happiness with her too...

Don't get your hopes up. That's really not going to happen. :'3
I'm a fan of Fujimoto x Kobato and i'm a fan of Doumoto x Kobato.
I feel bad for Doumoto, looks like Kobato is going to end up most likely with Fujimoto.

Hmm... I'm of the opinion that Kobato isn't going to end up with anyone unless she gives up whatever she set out to do in the first place...an ultimate sacrifice. ;) It seems that quite a few people are looking forward to the appearance of the TRC gang. Ditto me. I'll be happy to see Fai & white Mokona again.

I find myself unable to care about Fujimoto's sob story tragic past. I think they left it too late to tell us what was going on and spent too much time making him act like a jerk.

I want to marry Domoto. ;.;

I think this is where the plot turns up? XD Been waiting long enough.

fffff-I was hoping the crossover crap was going to end with that filler episode, dammit. Still, Mokona is awesome and Fai is pretty, so. XD

POOR DOUMOTO. I knew this was going happen. Fujimoto gets to be an emo asshole and then Doumoto has to let the girl go. Why is the world so cruel? Haha I think the only reason Fujimoto ran off to meet her was because he knows what it's like to be waiting alone for someone that never comes. IT GOOD. ass.

The animation was super pretty in this episode - especially in the Fujibato scene in the snow...

Yes that is definitely Fai, Mokona, and Kurogane in the preview. They look like they're in their Tsubasa clothes too. Maybe her world is one of the worlds they visited. o_o When - I don't know, but who cares about little details like that anymore anyway, I suppose? XD

YEAH THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT SON although I feel bad for Domoto since he's like the one who helps Kobato and Fujimoto get together every time. This is what you get when you're a mister nice guy, you get nothing but they take away everything from you. Fuck man I feel bad for Domoto. I also feel bad for Fujimoto. That story when he was a child is really tear jerker.

Anyways, what a lovely episode. Everyone got along, even Ginsei, the bear, and Ioryogi, probably because it's christmas. I loved how Gensei blushed after Ioryogi saw him with a santa hat, lol. I wonder what Ioryogi really meant when he said when spring arrives, he's going to say goodbye to Kobato.

Okay so I loved how Kobato sang again. Also loved thow Fujimoto x Kobato moments. Finally they're going to share an umbrella together. Isn't that what couples do? :D

Ah, poor Domoto. It's unfortunate for him, but Kobato is completely oblivious to his feelings, lol. It's obvious she has no eye for him, so what can you do? Personally, I'm enjoying the Fujimoto/Kobato. :)

I don't think it would matter if Kobato knew how Domoto felt anyways. She already healed his heart so she's not allowed to fall in love with him, right? So isn't it better that way?

And the scene with Kobato dancing around Fujimoto was adorable, but wouldn't it be awkward for him to just stand there while she twirls around and sings? Hahahaha. ;D

I was also sad for Domoto, he is so sweet to Kobato and she didn't even have a clue about his feelings TT.TT I support Kobato x Fujimoto too, though, so I was happy ^^

I loved how they used Doumoto in this episode. You see, in the manga I always thought he would make a great love rival, but he never became that. Using him here is good for both Kobato and Fujimoto realizing they care about each other (c'mon, that's not even a spoiler...), but it was really sad, I love Doumoto, my baby AND NOW I KNOW WHY I LOVE HIM, OF COURSE, who is seiyuu??? Kamiya Hiroshi, that bastard. Natsume, Kou, Izaya and Yuu aren't enough, NOW DOUMOTO is in the "I love this character and Kamiya Hiroshi is one of the reasons" list.
About Fuijimoto past, daaaamn, I loved it too, CLAMP didn't explored this in the manga either! I'm really happy with the anime storyline, you see character AND relationship development here!

Doumoto is the man! He's such a nice character, I hate when they make very good love rivals because I will never be able to fully enjoy the canon pair. (But Fijibato is adorable, so...)

Kobato always sings at the right times, this was yet another beautiful episode. I wonder if she's almost gotten through to Fujimoto and on the verge of healing his heart. Kobato is such a wonderful character, easily shaping up to be one of my favorites. Such a big and gentle heart, caring and doing the best she can. Also glad I decided to watch this closer to Christmas, really putting me in the mood for next week now.

Although there is so much sadness and sweetness and sadness for the events of this fact to stop the plot to speak of another saddens me a bit, oh well.

Doumoto friendzoned and left all by himself. Fujibato couple wins. I preferred Doubato couple over Fujibato since the appeal is better.

I kind of wanted Kobato sing. It made the episode much more memorable.
