It wasn't just coincidence.  Dark Horse/Studio Proteus explicitly said in
their 

translation that Skuld need cold water.  I don't know if this was an error on
their part, or if Fujishima wound up contradicting himself in chapters 50 and
54 by showing Skuld teleporting through ocean water and cooler bath water,
respectively.<<

Then DH/SP got it wrong. I just checked my volume 5. Skuld says she can only
travel through water. Nothing there says it has to be hot. 

Ahhhh....then it was yet another error from them.  First they scrap most of 
volumes 1 & 2 and screw around with the order of the rest, then making mistakes 
(either accidental or deliberate)....makes you wonder about them, indeed...

Wish I knew more Japanese than I currently do....

I thought those were cherry blossom petals there... (shrug)

I dunno, I had trouble deciding whether the word was plum or cherry in
english.

Well, after double checking with two dictionaries and my kanji guide (I've got 
to get my hands on the Kodansha Compact guide, though...a lot easier to deal 
with than my current hardback), it is indeed "plum", not cherry.  Yet another 
DH/SP screwup...
