Card Captor Sakura - episode 31

One of Sakura's friends' favourite pastime is reading. In fact, Nicky is so enraptured by reading that the prospect of going to her favourite book shop is enough to cheer her day with the delightful antecipation of what her next book will reveal to her. What really amazes me is that the direction that the plot takes, considering that it starts with the usual team already capturing a card that does little more than causing ordinary creatures to grow in size. The only real scare was the neighbour's cat sitting on top of Lee. The kitty then returns to its normal size and all is well. Or so it seems. Raining on the group's parade is a herd of mythical creatures wafting through the air, hovering for a few seconds in front the startled young eyes. A bit of thinking work allows Kero to remember that this might be another Clow Card at work: the Creation Card, which gives rises to any creature thought up by its holder. This particular holder is Nicky, since her newly acquired book is an open-ended novel where the reader writes its conclusion. She unwittingly cranks up creature after creature without ever suspecting that her friends are not far away having to battle them. All hell breaks loose when Sakura uses the Big Card to make herself bigger and sets off to put a stop to her friend's creative literary output.
