Thoughts: This is the first chapter that is completely unchanged and shows. It's already a bit of a surprise to be greeted with the author notes before the fic continues and it's funny to see actual emoticons in the text and anime special effects (sweatdrops and lightning sparks). Plus, I'm going to have to get used to "Meirin" all over again…
And so resumes the Syaoran vs Touya face-off. Syoaran had many foes in his life, but Sakura's brother is going to be an opposing force for a long time to come.
Syaoran cheering Sakura up after she botched the cookie recipe was sweet. And he compliments her on having her mother's smile. Sigh, I am not looking forward to that chilly scene on the bridge later on in this arc.
You'd think that becoming a "ghost" herself in the flashback would be enough for Sakura to overcome her fear of the supernatural.
It really tickles me to see Nadeshiko call Clow Reed the most best looking man she's ever seen considering who she marries.
I remembered that Ryuuren had long hair because of Syoaran's hilarious comment about if his father didn't lose the braid, then he would have had to grown his hair and then share a look with Eron. I appreciated the way that Sakura made the conscious decision of calling teenage Nadeshiko by her name and not mother.
Fanart spotlight: Because there was no fanart for Chapter 5, I thought it would be easy enough to draw the Five Force Scroll with Microsoft Paint. This drawing is a decade old! I miss MS Paint. We use Mac now and their Paintbrush program is not the same.
