 Oooooh, spoilers/chapter for HOLiC is out and... dawnduskdancer, I think you were right about that thing where the shop is based in the past.
(But gah, I now want to know why there isn't a kind of circle for drawing the power of belief of those who want wishes granted to sustain the shop.) Unless of course, Watanuki, Doumeki, Himawari and all that are going to be roped in to provide the base for a new shop tied permanently to a time/place with Kohane as the new Witch. (What? Don't look at me that way, I was totally expecting Yuuko to tell Kohane that the price for her happiness was to sacrifice it later on to become the Witch of the Dimensions. (I so want to write that.))
It looks like Yuuko, Maru and Moro might not be getting their happy ending... 

Mweh, I've also been persuaded to do a OT3+ blogcrew sometime. Yay for OT3s!
