----------------------------------------
Feels like we're about to reach the climax.

For this episode, it's another buildup and I'm glad we learned more about Nadeshiko. Interesting to see more of Eriol getting involved in the story. He's still a character that I think is important this season despite not being present much. Felt like the episode was important as a way for discovery and narrative/storytelling.

I'm still kinda curious exactly about what Kaito's true agenda is. Grandfather Masaki is quite a humble guy.

Wow, like Stark said, the story is coming full circle.

It was nice to see Sakura's great-grandfather interact with Sakura and Syaoran. While he could not apologize to Nadeshiko before her death, Masaki has the chance to get along with Sakura.

I was surprised that Sakura managed to talk to Nadeshiko's child self though.

Eriol finally makes his latest appearance too, of course when the season (or series) is nearing its end.

"No more. Any further, and you won't be able to return." - Nadeshiko

Well there's a AU fanfiction just waiting to be written.

I think it was more like Nadeshiko's ghost made contact with Sakura through the projection before the projection became reality.

I feel like they've shown the same scenes in multiple episodes. Not sure if that's just my imagination. I am also reading the manga at the same time, so it might be the manga's fault.

Fascinating that her mother could see her as she was viewing the past It was wonderful for Sakuta to see her mother as a girl
As Kaito said Sakura's protectors began to move They want to know what is going on
Sakura and the other girl are nearly in sych

Interesting episode.

Sakura and Li going to meet Sakura's great grandfather was really nice.

Kaito mentioned Synchronize? What's that supposed to mean? That Sakura and Akiho are similar or related to each other somehow. It looks like Akiho sorta dreams through Sakura's eyes which means the person with the robes isn't Akiho but someone else.

Eriol's finally gonna talk, I'm really looking forward to his revelations.

Can't wait for next week.

There's no way they are finishing this in 2 episodes or it will be rushed as hell.

I'm betting on a movie or a season 2 announcement

In the synchronized dream sequence I was waiting for Sakura to yell at the masked character its name when she repeatedly said "I know you". I was hoping for Sakura to shout "Akiho" but I admit I was really hoping that Sakura would blurt out "ukasa".

whoa!!! something is actually happening!!
the episode where Sakura first met her grandpa in the original series was always a favorite of mine, so it was nice to revisit that character I have to say. the later part of the episode was actually very good.
I'm kind of curious if anyone here is a reader of the manga; just how much of the manga has this season covered? it has felt so incredibly slow, like 80% felt like filler so far and just now we're finally actually getting some story.

Sakura and Li got to have a nice tea visit with Sakura's Great-Grandfather!

Also got to see Sakura's mother as a young girl before everything went dark and both Sakura and Akiho shared the same "dream" yet again - and they're synchronizing?! What's that all about?!

Anyway, it seems Eriol, Yue and Cerberus are concerned about Sakura - as they very well should be!

Alas, let's hope that everything gets tied together in a neat little bow in the final TWO episodes!!

Wow what a great looking lunch that was.

Haha Kero was very funny talking about how it was a date.

Kero & Yukito have a good understanding with one another.

Pretty cool seeing Sakura uses Record so she could she a bit of her mother's past

I had a feeling for a while now that Ahiko was the mysterious being that Sakura kept seeing, I am very interested in knowing what happens once the dream fully progresses.

Very ominous words spoken by Eriol, hope he explains everything next time.

I am sorry if my question is OOT, but does anyone kno why the chara design of CCS Clear Card (in manga especially) shifts from the original CCS (with its X-1999 style, you kno those really broad shoulders and sharp chins) to XXX Holic style (with softer and jelly-kinda-like edges)? Does the main designer change from Mokona to other member of CLAMP, or some other reasons maybe? Thank you in advance forthose who can give me some insights.

And, I think what Eriol is afraid the most is that Sakura becomes the strongest witch of all, just like Clow Reed was? Because Eriol is so kind like that, and the fact that some new powers emerge when Sakura simply "wishes" for it, reminds me of Yuuko's story in Tsubasa, Clow merely wished her to live a little longer or something, and then h*ll broke loose, right? But CLAMP is the master of mistery, there are still so many pieces in the puzzle, that was just my humble theory!

Im not sure if Mokona is still main designer in CCS: Clear Card, but changing style isn't really surprising, its been 20 years since original CCS, take a look at Akira Toriyama for example, his style from 80/90 is completely different from current one.

Good episode, this time Sakura peeked at the past out of her own will, her meeting with her great-grandfather together with Shaoran was also nice, and Eriol is finally up to talking with Kerberos and Yue.

I don't really know what's happening..

my speculation is that, I think that transfered girl is Nadeshiko's reincarnation, and it's previous memories trying to surface with Sakura's help. I think that's also why Sakura magic grow immense and become so powerful.

PROTECC MY GIRL

It sure is amusing that Sakura is to shy to say she's going on a date but then is okay with bringing Syaoran to meet her grandpa, like that's so much more awkward.
I just want them to put their relationship into words already, just say you're dating, everyone knows it already.
Yes, I get frustrated over this little things, it's silly I know, but I can't avoid it...

And then she goes into the house to bring more tea, like why. Stay where you are, let the maids do their jobs, don't just up and leave your boy in such an awkward position. Now he has to listen to the sob story of your family and how it sure is nice that we don't wanna repeat the same mistake huh. It's your first meeting, calm down.

Sakura forgets about the tea in 4 minutes and decides that she wanna see her mom's past, and it was a touching moment. I couldn't stop wishing for her to pinch her mom's cheeks, because that's what I'd want to do if I saw a kid version of my mom lol.
Then, we go to that damn dream again.
It's kinda funny that her grandpa actually calls for a doctor, I don't think that ever happened before. This girl is always fainting here and there and it's not like everyone knows that t's because of magic and stuff.

Also, I'd like to point out the very important job Kaito does, getting Akiho from one sofa and bringing her to another sofa. Amazing. Everytime they are onscreen I'm just like "can we go back to Sakura already?".

Eriol using magic to talk to Yue and Kero was so unnecessary, we have technology for that you know, he makes video calls all the time. And if he's gonna use the phone anyway, might as well not waste magic with that.

Well, with only 2 eps left, there's no choice but to give us some answers right?
Honestly, I'm not so certain of that. I still believe there's gonna be a second season, so maybe we will have some revelations now but not all of them.

Wait, what was it that grandpa wanted to give Sakura again?
Baby, daijobanai...

highly doubt everything will be able to wrap in this season. there's definitely a chance for a second season announcement after the last episode for this season ends. considering the manga is still printing, nobody has the answers to what's happening.

as someone who keeps up with both the anime and the manga, this is a bit frustrating lmao but it's okay since it''s ccs. i'm willing to wait and find out the answers to all of this.

Okay, I just have one question: When did Sakura know that her great-grandfather was the man she met during that vacation trip? Because I remember very well that the first time they met, she did not know that he was her great-grandfather, and in the episode she sends chocolate to him, the one who gave it to him was Sonomi. Did I miss something?

This one is chapter 21.
And next episode is the last chapter of the manga, chapter 23, based in the preview.

Episode 22 is more likely to be a recap.

A lot episodes are filler, probably half of it. Like Meiling episodes are all filler, and that took 4 episodes!

I guess that explains why its been so slow. maybe they should have waited a bit longer to make this anime...
