This episode had some nice scenes such the audience actually being shown how the mind control crystals are implanted on the men's foreheads and Sakura using the mirror (which is a version of The Mirror card from Card Captor Sakura) but overall this episode fell a bit flat. There just didn't seem to be much driving any of the characters. Fay didn't really do anything outstanding, neither did Mokona or Kurogane for that manner. All the characters simply seemed to be there because they have to be there.
I love most anime only episodes but this one was just so
bland.Here's hoping next week's anime only episode lives up to the preview. Features Sakura working for enough money to buy her feather which is for sale. Personally I think they should just steal it. It's hers anyway, right?
