This episode is one of my favorites because... There's just so many GORGEOUS screen shots of Mamoru!!! (duh!) There's a lot on Usagi and Mamoru's relationship, and you could see that Mamoru was really trying hard in surpressing his feelings and confusion. Ah... Read on to find out the story! |
At the
same time, Mamoru happened to walk past that art gallery....
He was shocked to see the same poster (the one Usagi thought
was very familiar) which was so much like his recurring dream!
|
Mamoru was shocked! And obviously, he was less than willing to be this stranger's model!
But Yumemi was adamant. She refused to let Mamoru go! Usagi, who was inside the art gallery, noticed a lady pulling at Mamoru and decided to tease him, since he's with a woman other than Rei! But when Yumemi saw Usagi, she ended up begging Usagi as well to be her model! Finally, Mamoru and Usagi gave in, seeing Yumemi's sincerity. They followed her to her house, oblivious to her identity....
There, Usagi discovered Yumemi's identity by recognising Yumemi's drawings in the house. Usagi was ecstatic, but Mamoru was very annoyed and restless.
Yumemi asked Usagi to sit beside Mamoru, but of course, the cute
odango-atama found the idea so inconceivable! ^_^ But Yumemi begged her
again, saying that she needed the both of them to draw her next picture.
Being the pure-hearted girl Usagi was, she reluctantly plonked herself
beside Mamoru. And found herself staring at him.... (of course,
who wouldn't??) ^_^
"Mamoru's a rather good-looking guy...." Usagi thought to herself. |
After
some time, Yumemi completed her sketch. She told the "couple" that whenever
she draws, she'd think to herself, "Please become happy. Please be able
to meet someone nice." Usagi expressed that it was a sad thing that Yumemi
did not have any friends. But Yumemi cheerfully replied that it was OK.
Mamoru, on the other hand, gave a rather sarcastic comment...
"Before one is able to make someone happy, one has to be happy himself." |
One thing led to the other. Yumemo became the next target of the
Dark Kingdom, and surprisingly, she was the 2nd person to have one of the
Rainbow Crystals in her (there are 7 Rainbow Crystals needed to find the
Empyrium Silver Crystal).
Sailormoon went to Tuxedo
Mask. In the process she accidentally dropped the pendant (which was actually
his) that she picked up after one of his previous fights. He clasped her
hand, and whispered, "Princess..." Sailormoon asked for the
other crystals that he had, but he refused to give them back to her. Solemnly
Tuxedo Mask said that he'd even come for the ones that the Senshis have!
Shocking, eh? Sailormoon then asked him whether he was a friend or a foe,
and he replied...
