   Kumada Yuichiro makes his first appearance.  Was he actually there   
   looking to join the shrine, or did he just see Rei and make a snap   
   decision that he was going to stay?  Regardless, just why he was napping   
   on the steps is a mystery to me.   
      
   Yuichiro has the soul of a poet… he just doesn’t quite have the wits to   
   match.  Still, he’s nothing, if not devoted.  If Rei ever dreamed of   
   owning a puppy, well, he’s close enough.   
      
   4 of the 6 crystal carriers have now exhibited some sort of odd power.   
   Though Grandpa’s isn’t caused by the crystal, or else why could Rei do   
   it too?   
      
   Usagi breaks out the disguise pen again, this time turning into a   
   traveling fortune teller to try to set Rei up.  Dumb, dumb Usagi.   
      
   Ami’s sudden temper snap seemed a bit odd (well, except from needing to   
   get a few characters out of the way to keep the plot going, of course).   
     One could speculate from what she said that she had actually decided   
   to miss a class to be with her friends, only to find them going at it   
   like a pair of cranky toddlers.  And Makoto is either going to make sure   
   Ami is alright, or she just isn’t going to try to separate them alone,   
   so she retreats as well.   
      
   Or maybe I’m just overanalyzing.  Who knows…  ^_^;   
      
   Zoisite is about the match of a spiritually charged senior citizen.   
   Something tells me he didn’t get his position through merit in combat,   
   especially given how well he fawns and snivels.
