The Past, The Present, and The Future
It is the late afternoon at Sakura's house, and Sakura, Tori and
Julian are just finishing their lunch. Julian thanks Tori and
Sakura for lunch and mentions that he couldn't believe he ate
four whole helpings (O.O).
Tori tells Julian that they should head over towards the library
then and Julian says that before he does he is going to help
Sakura clean up, and he will meet him there. So Tori leaves and
Kero comes out from the staircase and says "The coast is
clear, I need to speak to Yue".
Julian once again grows wings and forms a cocoon with them,
transforming into Yue when the wings moved apart. At this time,
Sakura is pouring tea. Kero and Yue walk over to her. Sakura
yells as she sees Yue standing there.
So they go up to Sakura's room. Sakura says to Yue that he should
warn her before he transforms into Yue. Sakura offers Yue some
tea and cake. Yue doesn't take it, and Kero says through a
mouthful of cake that Yue doesn't eat. Sakura notes that he eats
so much when he's Julian.
Kero replies that Yue draws energy from the moon but when he's in
his false form he uses food for energy. Sakura leaves the room
and says she's going to get some milk.
Kero then becomes Keroberos and says that it's not over for
Sakura yet. Yue replies, saying that the Clow Cards will rise up
over Sakura. Keroberos responds, saying that she can do anything.
He notes what happened when Sakura captured the Fly Card and
there is a flashback of her using the Windy to capture it, and
then there is a flashback to the Shot Card episode, where the
Shot Card fires at Li, but Sakura hits the Card with the same
shot using the Mirror Card.
Keroberos says that without Sakura, the Snow Card would have made
Readington into a winter wonderland. There is a flashback to
Sakura using the Firey Card to capture the Snow Card. Yue says
that Sakura's bravery is not necessarily a positive aspect.
He also notes that Sakura often needed help from her friends. Yue
says that Clow Reed never said anything about there being two
Cardcaptors.
There is a flashback to the Cloud Card, where Li has to cut up
the Clouds. The delirious Sakura thinks it's Rain but Kero says
they just looks alike, and it's the Cloud Card. Sakura is about
to capture it (Saying Rain Card still) and Meilin catches, her,
aiding her with the movement of the want capture the Card with
the right name of Cloud Card.
Then there is a flashback to when Sakura was against the Time
Card and she got frozen and Li had to stop the Time Card with his
Lightning, giving Sakura the opportunity to seal the Time Card.
There is yet another flashback to when Li and Meilin fought
against the Twin Card. Then there is one to the Power Card, where
the Power is winning in tug-of-war and Li froze time to take the
rope away from the Power Card.
Keroberos says that knowing when to ask for help is not a
weakness and as a descendant of Clow Reed, Li has trained since
he was a boy which gives Sakura an advantage when he helps.
Sakura then walks into the room with the milk.
Later, Sakura says that she is late to meet Madison and Li and
she exits the room. When she leaves, Keroberos and Yue continue
their conversation. Keroberos tells Yue once again that knowing
when to ask for help is an intelligent attribute. He says that
even her brother has been using his powers.
There is a flashback....again....to the Cloud Card episode....again.
Tori is talking to the Mirror Card Sakura. He says that she isn't
sick and shouldn't be taking any medicine. He says that they've
met before and she isn't Sakura. (I.E., Mirror Card ep). He said
that she didn't know that he had powers to see spirits.
Yue comments that Sakura has made some bad decisions in the past.
There is ANOTHER flashback to when Sakura was against the Earthy
Card and she used the Watery to battle it. Then to Final Judgment
where she used the Wood Card against him.
Keroberos says that she does learn from her mistakes and the Clow
Cards are loyal. There is a flashback to the Light and Dark Card
episode, where the two of them say that they want Sakura as their
master.
Keroberos then says that Sakura also successfully transformed her
Staff. He says that Sakura is definitely the one. Keroberos says
that she must transform her Cards, that is why they stayed in
their false forms. Yue says that they would be better protectors
if they knew what to expect.
The next day, Kero is looking up at the sun as Sakura gets ready
to leave for school. He asks Sakura if she feels any different
and Sakura replies no. Kero says that she still has a lot to come
and Sakura asks him if it's not over yet.
Meanwhile, the shadow of a mysterious stranger can be seen....
Sakura says it is going to be one of those days as she leaves for
school.
Secrets of The Clow: Kero now has his own post-episode segment
call Secrets of The Clow. This time he introduces the Shadow Card
and says that it is sneaky because everything had a shadow and
the Card is hard to find, but in visible light the Shadow can
clearly be seen.
Note: This wasn't an exciting episode at all, it was just a
flashback episode. I've seen better ones. And what did they do to
Li's voice!? In all of the flashbacks he sounds like a five year
old! Same with Meilin! When they were fighting the Twin Card,
you'd think that a couple of preschoolers were arguing, not two
ten year olds fighting Clow Cards.
Additional Note: DO NOT think this episode was like this in the
original Japanese version. Nelvana cut here and there, inserting
all those flashbacks. And at the end, Kero was talking about the
sun rising. >.<. Does THAT LOOK LIKE THE SUN IS RISING?! It
looks more like a sunset, which it was in the original. Nelvana's
deeply disappointed me again. ~.~
