It’s not everyday when you see animal ears and horns on your friends’ head.
If you recall from yesterday, Sakura starts seeing cat ears and tail on Meiling. You might think that she is hallucinating. However, all of this might just be an illusion.
In this episode, Sakura and her friends along with Meiling decides to visit a shrine. It’s because Meiling and Akiho never visited one. Eventually, Sakura wanted to take them to the zoo instead. Eventually, Syaoran came and after a while, Sakura notices that everyone except for Syaoran have animal ears. Shortly after, she is taken to a different world where her friends are turning into animals. After a while, she starts to panic as she doesn’t know what to do until Syaoran came to freeze time. This gives Sakura some time to come to her senses and create a solution to capture the card.
There is more Syaoran and Sakura moments in this episode besides this one.
I have to admit it’s funny to see how Meiling and Kero stare at her when Sakura wakes up. Yep, she screamed with her favorite catchphrase. Still, it’s funny to see how she reacted.
As for the outing, it’s funny how everyone neglects Takashi. In two instances, someone or something interrupts his story telling. Also, Syaoran’s reaction to Sakura’s new hair style is priceless. Of course, Tomoyo was recording his and Sakura’s reaction too.
If you recall from last time, Sakura thought she was seeing cat ears and a tail on Meiling. During that time, Akiho was reading a story relating to Alice telling everyone that she saw a girl who have cat ears and tail that disappears. This time, it’s definitely real this time, but now with farm animals.
I have to admit, cat girl Meiling is cute.
Eventually, all of Sakura’s friends had animal ears. I have to admit that it’s cute and amusing at the same time. Her reaction when she thought that her animal friends look cute while in a different universe is also hilarious. Understandably, she starts to panic since she believes that her friends will become animals forever.
This scene is a good metaphor on how Sakura fears about seeing friends turning animals completely.
Syaoran comes to snap Sakura out of her fears so she can capture the card.
While Sakura panics as she doesn’t know what to do, we get to see a nice moment between her and Syaoran. Syaoran manages to come to the same universe and freeze time through some tough magic. It’s nice to see him try to encourage her to find a solution. After Syaoran passes out, Sakura manages to make a wish with the card. This allowed her to return to the real world and capture the card called Mirage.
Meiling finally realizes that Syaoran is calling Sakura by her first name. You know what this mean, right?
It’s not surprising why Sakura seems worried now and blames herself for this. It’s understandable since the card can makes things that are a mirage a reality. Moreover, Syaoran used a lot of his strength on freezing time to help her snap herself from her own fears.
Given that cards like these are only going to get tougher, it’s a good thing to see Sakura’s desire to become stronger. After all, she doesn’t want to see her friends, especially Syaoran get hurt by these cards. To me, it’s a good call, given that Syaoran is working hard for Sakura’s sake. ¶
