When danger erupts at the school, Sakura manages to find Eriol with his magical staff, but she faints before she can confront him. Sakura sees a vision of Clow Reed's last living day.

With his new magic, Fujitaka is able to reunite with Nadeshiko's spirit. Eriol also reveals to Yue (who believes that his beloved master has returned) that while he is Clow Reed's reincarnation, he is only the heir to his memories and not Clow Reed himself; noting sadly that there is no way to bring back the deceased. He explains that this was why Clow left both Yue and Kero under Sakura's care. He notes that he was glad to have met Clow's creations; both Yue and Kero. One morning at school Eriol announces he is returning to England with Spinel Sun, Ruby Moon, and Miss Mizuki. Eriol and Miss Mizuki reveal their love for one another. While walking home from school with Sakura, Syaoran confesses to Sakura his love for her, telling Sakura that he not only loves her but is the person he loves the most. That night, Sakura reflects on Syaoran's confession and wonders what it is she feels for Syaoran; realizing that what she feels for Syaoran is different to how she felt about Yukito. Sakura seeks advice from Tomoyo, Rika and Chiharu (who reveals to Sakura that she not only loves their classmate Yamazaki but has been in a relationship with him for a long time) before she resolves that she loves Syaoran. When Syaoran tells Sakura he is moving back to Hong Kong, she crafts him a teddy bear. Yukito sees this and asks Sakura if she found the person she loves the most. Sakura replies happily that she did, but is sad, not knowing when she will see Syaoran again. Yukito assures her that they will see each other again as long as they both want to be together. Before Syaoran's coach leaves to take him to the airport, Sakura reaches him with Toya's help (despite his negative feelings about Syaoran) and reciprocates Syaoran's feelings, telling Syaoran that he is her "Number One;" the person she loves the most. Syaoran happily takes the bear, knowing that Sakura feels the same about him, and they agree to name their respective bears after each other. As his coach leaves Syaoran promises to return and desperately asks Sakura if she will wait for him, and vows that she will. Over the next few years, Sakura and Syaoran maintain a long-distance relationship. One morning, when Sakura starts Middle School, Syaoran returns and reunites with Sakura, who reveals that he is back for good, and they resolve to be together as an official couple. | ||

Short Story Summary: While getting herself ready to make dinner with Kero and Spinel, Sakura looks at the bear she gave to Syaoran and picks it up smiling; remembering the time she revealed to Syaoran that she loves him and gave it to him. She wonders if the bear she exchanged with Syaoran (the one he originally gave Sakura) misses her.

Kero then calls Sakura, and having realized she forgot about the cooking, heads off to the kitchen. At that moment, Sakura’s bear glows with magical energy. At the same time, back at his apartment, Syaoran has the funny feeling that someone is calling for him. Looking down at his phone, Syaoran picks it up and rings Sakura.

Syaoran tells Sakura thinks that her dreams may be a premonition of what is to come.

Although Syaoran deeply loves Sakura and has been in a relationship with Sakura for a while now and has been dating her since his return to Tomoeda, he has never asked her out on a date due to his shy and nervous nature. Remembering where Sakura invited him on their first date, Syaoran thinks to himself that its his turn to ask Sakura out. He eventually does so after some prompting by Kero; leaving Syaoran embarrassed and Sakura in a joyful, happy mood; having been asked out by her boyfriend.

Until We Meet Again bonus story summary: After coming home from school, Sakura is delighted to find a letter from Syaoran, and is really happy to use her paper knife (which she bought for opening Syaoran’s letters) to open it with. Back in Hong Kong, Syaoran looks at the sky deeply sad, missing Sakura. Noticing the way he looks, Syaoran’s mother Yelan comments that he has a soulless expression. She tells Syaoran that she will be there for his training session that afternoon. Syaoran feels that he still hasn't trained enough. Yelan tells Syaoran that if there’s something he wants to accomplish, then training his skills is important but he must also face his own heart; pointing out to Syaoran that he only decided to become stronger for the sake of the new owner of the Clow Cards. Syaoran said that he did, and Yelan tells Syaoran to follow the path he chose but at the same time must not take his eyes off his heart, because if he lies to himself he will make the person who loves him so dearly sad. Syaoran agrees, and Yelan promises to see him that afternoon. Alone, Syaoran says (as though to Sakura) that he hopes his letter will make her smile a little; smiling brightly as he says her name. Back in Japan, Sakura finishes reading Syaoran’s long, four-page letter to her. Touched by his words (which are never revealed) Sakura says Syaoran’s name and holds his letter against her chest (with romantic flower imagery in the background). Sakura is then startled by an outburst from Kero, who noted how Toya had just come home and was close to discovering Kero. He asks Sakura if the letter was good and (thinking of the clearly romantic content of the letter) says smiling lovingly that it was. Kero rubs her head, happy for her. Sakura then says she will start writing her response with some new stationary she bought, and says (thinking of Syaoran, with her eyes closed smiling) “Until We Meet Again.” | |||
Note: The above story, which came in the form of a booklet, was only released in Japan with a special edition of Clear Card Volume 10. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20230326144245/https://ccsakura-official.com/comics/ COMICS原作 (from official Cardcaptor Sakura website)]</ref> It is notable for being the first story in the franchise to focus on Sakura and Syaoran’s long-distance relationship during the two years they were apart. The special edition also came with a single connected to the story called “Letters between the Stars;” a duet of Syaoran and Sakura reflecting on their love for each other. | |||

| Summary = | | Summary = Kaito expresses his admiration for Sakura’s abilities; noting how she was able to use her Siege magic to encase herself before his time magic came into effect, and is the firtt person to ever escape his spell. He reveals to Sakura that he knows about her magic abilities as well as those of Syaoran’s, along with him being the future head of the Li clan. Sakura uses her Transfer card to encase Kaito in the same magical shield she’s in. Despite this, Kaito is able to turn time to before Sakura and Syaoran met up for their date. Sensing something is wrong, Sakura calls Syaoran over to her house and they speak to each other inside the Siege shield. Sakura thinks that they still met up for their date that day, with Sakura remembering her using the Siege card along with the fact that Kaito can use magic. Syaoran reveals to Sakura that he knew this too but couldn’t tell her because of the spell Kaito placed on him. Kero reveals that he, Spinel, Eriol and Yue also knew about Kaito’s magic, but Yue felt it was better not to tell Sakura. Although they feel bad, Sakura knows they were only looking out for her. Syaoran figures out that Kaito can control time with magic. Momo, who is listening to this conversation, sees that Kaito has been caught out. Sakura also suspects that although Syaoran can’t detect any magic inside Akiho, she thinks there’s something inside Akiho as well but doesn’t know what it is. Kero thinks that Sakura’s growing power means she’s the only person who can see it. Spinel, Ruby Moon, Kero and Yue later meet to discuss the situation, such as how they kept the secret of Kaito’s magic from her, and note that Sakura’s decisions are hers to make. Spinel notes that Syaoran thought it would be best if they honored Sakura’s wishes this time. At the school, Naoko asks Sakura and Akiho (after seeing how close they are) if they will appear in the school play she is producing, “The Twin Alices.” Both agree, while Syaoran agrees to participate as well; taking the role of a cat that is plays an integral part in the lives of both Alices. Kaito believes that he will be able to make Sakura produce the magic he needs when the play is performed. Naoko was inspired by a book Akiho owns called “Alice in Clockland,” and Kero reveals to Sakura that it is a powerful spell book. Sakura encounters the hooded figure in her sleep, and suspects that they are Akiho, not Syaoran. Kero and Spinel discuss the powers of Akiho’s book and receive an unexpected guest in the form of Momo, whom Spinel realizes is its guardian. Transforming into her human-like form, Momo prepares to leave them with something; hoping to do so before Kaito discovers their meeting and turns time back once again. Card secured: True or False. | ||

The manga series Cardcaptor Sakura is written and illustrated by the manga artist group Clamp. The first chapter premiered in the June 1996 issue of Nakayoshi, where it was serialized monthly until its conclusion in the August 2000 issue.[1][2][3] The series focuses on Sakura Kinomoto, a fourth grade elementary school student who discovers that she possesses magical powers after accidentally freeing a set of magical cards from the book in which they had been sealed for years. She is tasked with retrieving those cards in order to avoid an unknown catastrophe from befalling the world.
The 50 unnamed chapters were collected and published in 12 tankōbon volumes by Kodansha starting on November 22, 1996;[4] the last volume was released on July 31, 2000.[5] Kodansha re-released the series in a hardcover edition from March 5, 2004, to February 2, 2005.[6][7] Starting in March 2015, Kodansha began re-releasing the series in a nine-volume special edition to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Nakayoshi.[8] Cardcaptor Sakura was adapted into a 70-episode anime series by Madhouse that aired in Japan on NHK from April 8, 1998, to March 21, 2000. Madhouse also produced two animated films released in 1999 and 2000. The manga series is licensed for regional language releases by Pika Édition in France,[9] Star Comics in Italy,[10] Egmont Manga & Anime in Germany,[11] Editora JBC in Brazil,[12] Ever Glory Publishing in Taiwan,[13] Glènat España in Spain,[14] Editorial Ivrea in Argentina,[15] and Editorial Toukan in Mexico.[16]
Kodansha released the first six volumes in bilingual editions that included both Japanese and English from May 12, 2000, to July 13, 2001.[17][18] Cardcaptor Sakura was licensed for an English-language release in North America by Tokyopop. It released the volumes of Cardcaptor Sakura from March 1, 2000, to August 5, 2003.[19][20] Tokyopop released the first six volumes with the book "flipped" from the original Japanese orientation, in which the book is read from right-to-left, to the Western format with text oriented from left-to-right. Volumes seven through twelve were released in the original orientation with the subtitle Master of the Clow. On October 7, 2003, and May 4, 2004, Tokyopop re-released the first six volumes in two box sets, each containing three volumes.[21][22] The re-released volumes were updated to match the orientation and cover styling of the final six volumes. They were also released individually from July 6, 2004, to June 7, 2005.[23][24] Madman Entertainment used Tokyopop's English translation to release the series in Australia and New Zealand.[25] Dark Horse Manga published an English edition of the series in four omnibus volumes containing three of the original volumes each from October 2010 to September 2012.[26][27]
