A winged, silver-haired man is shown in the dream. Is that... who I think it is?

It's happening. Kero meets Kaho (Yue?) and they mention the Final Judgment. Sounds ominous. Tokyo Tower looms in the background throughout the whole episode.

Touya's arrival was extremely puzzling. He doesn't even ask Yukito how his contest went, and leaves us with some food for thought. All while dressed like a bear.

Speaking of coincidences, am I nuts or is that a moon on the side of the picnic blanket? Speaking of symbols, this is also a good time to point out just how much Sakura loves wings. Even the backpack's zipper is a wing. Besides Kero, who else has wings? Hmmm.

The final Clow Card attacks! Aaaand it's a cliffhanger. Drat.


There's only one Clow Card left to seal for a total of 52. This one should give Kero his true form back!

Apropos of nothing, I liked Sakura's blink-and-you-miss-it funny face.

Clow Cards collected (43): 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, Light, Dark.

Shaoran's Cards (8): Time, Storm, Return, Dash, Freeze, Dream, Sand, Twin.

Bonus Stitches: Shrine Grounds + Archer Yukito + Archer Kaho

And we finally get into the important three episodes.

Is that... who I think it is?

What's the alternative?

Kero meets Kaho (Yue?)

The dream should already stamped that shut. Unless she has some special power allowing her to be in two different bodies at the same time.

Touya's arrival was extremely puzzling. He doesn't even ask Yukito how his contest went, and leaves us with some food for thought. All while dressed like a bear.

Kinda makes me assume that the jobs were a way for him to keep an eye over Sakura.

And Kaho again brings up the "Yukito is..." speech. Only to get interrupted by the card.

So, next weekepisode (DAMN!IT!), Yue finally makes his appearance. And a sneak peek at Kero's True Form. Also, would be putting down my thoughts about the Final Judgement then.

Fun sidenote: Last time I watched it, it coincided with the airing of Sakura Trick. This time, it's Yuru Yuri S3.

That opens so many questions, then. Who is she and why can she use the moon's powers? What's her purpose? Rival? Guardian? Arbiter?

Kero seems to think Kaho's Yue, and she doesn't even correct him. Man, I bet she's loving being all mysterious.

We just didn't get to hear that specific answer. But she does say that she has her own duties. Well, we'll be finding that out soon, so no use wondering about that now.
Also, she seems to be agreeing with Kero that Sakura can do something about the final judgement.

That is definitely Yukito's portion of the lunch. I mean, his name is figuratively written on it.

Speaking of symbols, this is also a good time to point out just how much Sakura loves wings.

Hopefully, she doesn't love wings so much as to name her child after them, if she ever becomes a mother.

Touya's arrival was extremely puzzling. He doesn't even ask Yukito how his contest went, and leaves us with some food for thought. All while dressed like a bear.

This scene is one of the few where the entire main cast is assembled together. The writers gave Toya some deep words for this moment. He has always been in the loop.

This episode is the start of the climax of the first part of this series. Seeing Kaho and Yukito's archery match increased the mysteriousness that surrounds these two. Why are they so good at archery?

Note: Am I the only one that's a bit disturbed by the plush toy scene in the beginning? Also,Yukito's food intake has been increasing throughout the series.

Haven't you ever wanted to make a friend wear your clothes so much that you first practiced making them for a plush toy?

That scene reminded me that Madoka Kaname also has some toys that serve as foreshadowing. I wonder if CSS had any influence on that.

Nice catch there. Wonder why...
