    Sakura meets a new exchange student from England who becomes her antagonist. hide show

    Previously from the other episode, a mysterious presence is watching Sakura in her house. As the new school year starts, things changed for Sakura now that Miss MacKenzie returned to England. When Sakura arrives at school, the class is introduced to a new student, Eli Moon. However, something about Eli doesn't seem right. That night it begins to rain heavily, a fact that worries Kero. And as Sakura looks at the Book of Clow it begins to glow and transform, leaving her name on the cover. Sakura, Kero, Madison, and Yue go out to investigate a mysterious presence but they are attacked by water tornadoes, trapping them all inside a column of water. However as Sakura tries to release her key she is unable to get it to react. But sing the Firey Card, everything stopped. Now Eli and Ruby Moon watched the whole thing on top. What will happen? Overall, I rate the previous episode and this episode a 100%!
