Card Captor Sakura - episode 8

 A mysterious robed figure features prominently in Sakura's dream. Standing aloof atop an all-too familiar tower, the shadowed individual jumps off screen and vanishes. The dream sequence is of particularly troubling portent to Sakura, because she can't make sense of it. Later at school, a new exchange student is announced. Everyone say hello to Lee Shaoran.

As some sort of meddling work from fate's hand, Lee turns out to be the object from Sakura's latest nightly vision. This creates all sorts of tensions between the two, mostly on account of them being of opposide genders and each sensing something different from the other

As a character, Lee is a guy who needs no introduction. He keeps a haughty air about himself and is usually withdrawn from social interactions, what with him being the exchange student and all. At one point, he straight out walks up to Sakura and confronts her about the Clow Cards. Sakura is taken aback for a moment and for a moment reconsiders her role as a card captor, but after a moment of instropection refuses to hand over her treasured possession, angering Lee in the process. Just as the latter is about to physically assail Sakura, Tory comes up and tells the juvenile aggressor to stop. The two have a brief stare-off, until Julian arrives and pacifies the worked up moods.

We are informed that Lee is a direct descendant of Clow Reed, the sorcerer who is the official retainer of the Clow Cards. This plunges Sakura into a pit of self-doubt and second-guessing, but Kero assures her that she is the rightful card captor assigned by the Book Of Clow itself.

A frustrating aspect if Lee antagonising Sakura about her skills as a card captor. He makes light of her not being as versed as him in the Clow lore, but Kero steps in a few times to put Lee in his place. The altercations involving Kero and Lee are fairly amusing, usually resulting in mild trash talking and insult hurling. Whenever these happen, I always barrack for the former.
