#27 - Sakura and the Shrine of Memories

We learn a lot more about that mysterious teacher, Mizuki Kaho, that appeared last episode and her relation to Sakura's brother, Touya this time. Seems there's another card at the Tsukimine Shrine so Kero and Sakura and Li go to investigate. But they can't find it no matter how hard they search, so Kero goes off to buy some drinks and Sakura and Li get to have some quality time together talking about Mizuki sensei -- even though Li says to be careful around her, Sakura feels all "hanyaan" when Mizuki-sensei's around.. just like when she's with Yukito.. Ooops... it's out. So Sakura and Li talk about how they first met Yukito.. it was hitomebore, love at first sight, for both of them. Awwww ;)

But the Clow Card that they were searching for suddenly appears and take Sakura away.. to the past when Touya (in middle school) and Kaho met. It's the work of the RETURN card. Getting back to the past, Touya and Kaho's relationship got more involved but, a year later Kaho went overseas to study. But she says that they'll meet again, which did come true. Sakura is pulled back into the present by Li using the TIME card and she seals RETURN away. She gives Li a hug as thanks for saving her (see last screencap)... thank goodness Meilin wasn't there. That would've been scary ;)

Anyways, guess who was watching everything the whole time? Mizuki-sensei. She's definitely not your ordinary math teacher. I remember when I first watched CCS I was with Li about Mizuki, didn't really trust her at all. But we'll see if that stays the case.
