Now, two decades later, Clamp returns to continue the adventures of Sakura and company with Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card! Set shortly after the climax of the original series, Clear Card follows Sakura as she enters into a new phase of her life, middle school. In the skillful hands of Clamp, an all woman Japanese art group, Cardcaptor Sakura used a fairly straight forward magical girl premise to launch into an exploration of love and friendship in all their different flavors. While the premise may sound a bit tired and worn, fans and readers of the original series know it was so much more that. Originally published in Japan in 1996, Cardcaptor Sakura used the premise of young Sakura and her friends- Tomoyo, Syaoran, Cerberus, and more-as they sought to capture the magical Clow Cards which were wreaking havoc in their town.
