Episode 9: The Magic Knights' Greatest Crisis

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.

Magic Knight Rayearth

TVFINISHED1994

Three young girls, Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu, are transported to a magical world called Cephiro during a field trip to Tokyo Tower. They are soon greeted by Master Mage Clef, who explains to them that they have been summoned to become the Legendary Magic Knights and save Cephiro. The girls are less than enthusiastic about this idea, and only want to return home. Clef further explains that they must seek out the three Rune Gods to help them fight. He bestows armor and magical powers to each of them. They learn from Clef that High Priest Zagato has kidnapped the Pillar of Cephiro, Princess Emeraude. The Pillar of Cephiro has the sole responsibility of keeping Cephiro alive and in balance with her prayers. Without Princess Emeraude, Cephiro would fall into ruin. Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu must fight off Zagato's henchman and find the Rune Gods if they ever want to get back home. They soon learn that friendship and loyalty are the only things they can rely on in the crumbling Cephiro.
