Thoughts: Leiyun had one goal and that was to get the Cards back to the Li Clan. And to think that we thought it could never happen. Overall he's so creepy. It makes sense that he's the one and only person who Sakura truly loathes.

Syaoran has officially stolen Sakura's Clow book and Sakura Cards, much like how CCS:CC seemed to have stolen this plot point from Wish-chan and made it their own. It only took him six years. All jokes aside, I thought Syaoran only took the Cards after the April Fools Day Massacre so I don't remember what happens next with the exception of a scene where Leiyun forces the Memory on Syaoran.

I knew that Arc 4 was going to be fuzzy, but there are so many parts of this chapter that I've completely forgotten and it's as if I'm reading this for the first time.

Woah, I've never seen Yue dish out a harsh serving of tough love (if you can even call it that…).

It's kind of cool to see Touya admit to Yukito that his 17-year-old self wouldn't have been a match for 10-year-old Syaoran who was trained to fight since birth. 

I love the way Terada ended up teaching at Eitoukou.

"Eron scared off the Eitoukou player blocking him with the dark aura he began to radiate as he fumed over his archenemy Li Syaoran." Oh my gosh, that line is hilarious!!!

Syaoran finally introduces himself to Sakura. I guess she'll be remembering this version of him this time around.

Another appearance of the mysterious voice! Now that we know it's Moonie-chan, it makes sense that she can pop in and out of a place as she pleases.

Fanart spotlight: I might have forgotten about the scene where Syaoran secretly gives his green umbrella to Sakura if it wasn't for Wish-chan's Arc 4 music video that animates a couple of scenes from this chapter. This fanart is a snapshot of the original artwork that Wish-chan used in an Arc 4 fanart. Syaoran looks rather handsome in his Eitoukou uniform!
