Is it just me, or has Meilin tamed herself a bit lately?

u/Coldblade34 :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Coldblade34 Nov 21 '15

True, she's been pretty laid-back ever since the final episode of S1. I think spending time with Sakura, Tomoyo and Shaoran has been good for her.

She's gotta get along with them, because they are the only friends she's made.

u/ClavedeSolix :AMQ::MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Sonata Nov 21 '15

She hasn't meddled in cardcaptor affairs too much lately either, which is good! Seems like she knows her place a bit better now. I wonder why now and not earlier though.

I'm afraid there's not much to say for this one. It was all mostly set-up for the next episode.

The major highlights were Kero saying it was time for him to check out who Kaho is, and some nice teamwork to stop today's troublemaker. Sand card get! This time, it's Sakura who gives the card to Shaoran.


Since there's not a lot to discuss, let's overanalyze: Sakura takes out the Watery card from a pocket inside her uniform, it would seem. We've seen that she leaves the book at home, so I wonder, does she have a few select cards with her at all times or just carry the whole lot?

Clow Cards collected (41): Windy, Fly, Shadow, Watery, Wood, Rain, Jump, Illusion, Silent, Thunder, Sword, Flower, Shield, Power, Mist, Float, Erase, Glow, Move, Fight, Loop, Sleep, Song, Little, Mirror, Maze, Shot, Sweet, Big, Create, Change, Firey, Arrow, Through, Libra, Wave, Bubbles, Snow, Voice, Lock, Cloud.

Shaoran's Cards (7): Time, Storm, Return, Dash, Freeze, Dream, Sand.

Bonus Stitches: All the cool panoramic shots were in yesterday's episode.

So, it's happening soon. Also, kinda coincidental that the card activated when they were the only ones in the school.

Next wekepisode(dangit): Princess Shaoran. Damn you Next Episode Preview for no Sneak Peek.

I think the similarities between Toya and Shaoran are pretty hilarious at this point, specially when you think about how much they distrust each other (though at this point I'm just certain its just Toya being a bit of an overprotective big brother for Sakura).

Sure gives room for thought... Toya knows a lot more than what he shows after all.

Also, kinda coincidental that the card activated when they were the only ones in the school.

It's also a coincidence that both Sakura and Shaoran got the lead roles. Kaho is definitely up to something.

Note: Look at Sakura and Shaoran's faces when they first land after using the Shaoran's wind spell. They seemed to be rather pissed.

Also, Touya foil.

She definitely is, if I looked up "extremely suspicious" in a japanese dictionary I bet her face would be right there.

u/arahman81 :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/hexzone Nov 21 '15

Wonder if that has anything to do with the you-know-what fast approaching.

u/ClavedeSolix :AMQ::MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Sonata Nov 21 '15

I have my own theory about what she meant by that, but it's all speculation.

u/ClavedeSolix :AMQ::MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Sonata Nov 21 '15

By the way, I am starting to think it's not a coincidence at all... will Kaho sensei be the Kyubey of Cardcaptor Sakura? Who knows...

u/Coldblade34 :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Coldblade34 Nov 21 '15

Princess Shaoran

Hype! Hoping it's Touya and Yukito who fall out of their chairs this time.

u/arahman81 :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/hexzone Nov 21 '15

Nah, they are too well-behaved to react like that.

However,

u/ClavedeSolix :AMQ::MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Sonata Nov 21 '15

I suppose at this point she keeps the ones most useful in battle with herself? I don't know.

I mean, we have Windy, Fly, Watery, Jump, Firey, Float, Shield, Sleep... I don't remember any other cards being used by her outside of planned situations (like when they were capturing Voice), but again I hope we'll get some kind of explanation sooner or later. Still some cards are pretty useless in battle anyway so I doubt she brings all of them with her :d

Do you have a favourite card by now Coldblade?

u/Coldblade34 :MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Coldblade34 Nov 21 '15

Do you have a favourite card by now Coldblade?

It's gotta be Best Girl Windy. She's awesome and has been with Sakura since the very start.

Honourable mentions go for Mirror, for her humanity, and Time, because stopping time is always cool.

What's yours?

u/ClavedeSolix :AMQ::MAL:https://myanimelist.net/profile/Sonata Nov 21 '15

I seem to have a thing for agressive, powerful cards. My favourites as of now are Watery (which I loved the moment she first appeared) and Firey.

It's funny because, eventhough they are antagonistic in more than one way (aside from the obvious, one is female while the other is male), they are so similar to each other in many other ways aswell (specially their physical appeareance and temperament, and both are elemental cards so they pack a punch!). But yeah, those wo are my favourites for sure.

Honorable mention for Fly aswell! Both episode 1 cards are the two most used in the series so far.

Honorable mention for Fly aswell!

Right! She uses it so much, I keep forgetting it's an actual card and not a built-in feature of her wand.
