Magic Knight Rayearth

The Magic Knights' Greatest Crisis (1x9)

: 12, 1994

Alcyone manages to trick Ascot into freeing her from the barrier holding her against her will, by promising she will give power to one of his monsters to make it strong enough to kill the Magic Knights. In an open field, Umi is still obsessed with her fencing competition that was a week away at the time they arrived in Cephiro, even though days or even weeks may have already passed. Hikaru suggests if she wishes hard enough, maybe she can still make it to the competition - since Cephiro is a land of power.
