This last episode only left me wanting for more, here's hoping it won't be long till we see Sakura and the others back on our screens.

That was... not an end at all, and frankly, so many qeustions still unanswered, and msot of the stuff in this "last" episode was painfully obvious anyway

There has to be some sort of continuation coming in form of new season? Or movie maybe?

Nothing was resolved. That was obvious from the series' pacing.

Reading the manga is highly recommended.

Overall, with the exception of Episode 19, Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card-hen was an enjoyable anime.

8/10

I'm wondering if the story was fan made or not? It seems this anime lives in alternate dimension from the prequel story.



Overall the anime was quite boring. It's like someone made a 'fan made' anime with the Cardcaptor's characters.

Honestly, I really enjoyed this anime a lot. Formulaic but it was very fun to watch and Sakura is STILL, 18 years later, the Goddess of Loli. Absolute Queen of being adorable and pure. And as for the way this season ended, I'm fine with it. This is MUCH better than getting a crappy original ending. I just hope we don't have to wait another 18 years for more.

Yeah, ending sucked, but this had the same magic as the original. It really surprised me, since surely the original staff moved on after two decades. I do want more, and this cliffhanger ending leads me to believe that more is coming.

8/10 for now. I gave the original a 9/10. Not quite as good, but this does feel like a worthy continuation of the series.

The anime has already caught up with the manga so we have to get by with this ending. I thought the fight between Sakura and the mysterious being was the best fighting scene in this season so far. Overall I liked this season a lot, although there were clearly not enough Syaoran scenes.

I was very happy to see Sakura once again in a beautiful anime, all this kindness and innocence is so refreshing these days.

Yes, the anime was quite slow-paced and it's fair to say we didn't see much happen but what we saw in this last episode could lead to interesting turns of event, I like to see how powerful Kaito is and wants to understand what is this book.

Anyway, can't wait for season 2 so I hope we won't have to wait for too long :)

I knew from the get-go a cardcaptor series cannot properly end in 22 episodes and I was right.

This could have been benefited more with more Syaoran and Sakura moments.

I thought the person in the hood would be Kaito instead of Akiho, but hell! I'm mystified by her existence though, who is really Akiho and what's up with her acquittance with Kaito? What is Kaito using her for and why did he steal the relic from the association? What happened to Eriol and his familiars/guardians? Why was it important for Sakura to collect the clear cards? Why is Kaito targeting Sakura? What's the real connection between Akiho and Sakura since people always assume they're similar, could it be her mother's reincarnation? This season left us with so many unanswered questions and vague outcomes.

All in all it was just about Sakura collecting with no back structure of the story line! They just repeated what was on last season but in a worst way, pretty lackluster if you ask me. I think this show depends on the tedious nature of collecting cards rather than anything else, it completely lacked any fine development or fresh ideas in card capturing. I did enjoy the clear card capturing moments, but come on they are tiring already after watching 70 episodes of them from last season. This show needed few a additional episodes to wrap well than this.

This.

There were some cute moments but overall it was a pointless, soulless sequel. A prequel where they revealed her mom was also a card captor could've been a lot more interesting.

I think it was more than obvious the cloaked figure was Akiho, even for kids which this show targets at. Time rewind is proving to be OP and annoying.

This season had a lot of problems....
Mainly repetition (almost re-using the original cards), slowness, and high predictability.

I was not surprised by anything in this season, and was hardly entertained by it. Ultimately the series disappointed me, even though it did have some charm.

Can't agree more. Even re-using almost every episode the same "gimmick" from a character, they made it look like they're all based of only one over exaggerated character trait.

. I thought the same about Akiho being her mother's reincarnation. Also, the reason for the cards being similar was explained towards the end. They're similar because Sakura is creating them subconsciously from memory of the old cards.

I hope in the manga or if the show eventually gets more seasons that the Sakura cards manage to comeback, they had full personalities unlike most of the clear cards.

The anime wasn’t bad, but it ended on such a cliffhanger. Hoping that there will be another season or a movie.

They pulled a move like Magikano.

Reversing stuff back to the start. I-

Well I still enjoyed the anime. It kind of subverted my expectations just a tad. I just wish they'd explore the different sorcerers and magic system stuff more and more.

So, we have a cliffhanger.

While that's a bit disappointing, I have a good feeling that the anime will continue in the near future, hopefully.

Just got to finish this. I binged watch everything from first TV, the 2 movies and this. This is nice but I hope they're not planning on leaving us dry here. It's been 3 years since this ended and it's been eerily quiet. Probably no chance of getting a continuation at this point which is sad.

Despite how this ep just ends in an annoying super cliffhanger, overall the show is pretty much how the old one was. And this gets huge points from me in just doing so. They have captured the feel good essence of the old TV anime. I would've loved to see other characters get some screen time but then again I already understood after a few eps that this is going to be revolving around Sakura, Syaoran and Akiho.

Crazy they would end with no resolution and then proceed to wait more than 6 years to give us more. The season as a whole was decent in the sense that it was essentially just more Cardcaptor Sakura, though there were a few discrepancies between this and the original anime/manga that left me a little confused (like the technology and references to both the anime original content and the manga canon). Hopefully season 2 comes out soon now that the manga is done and is able to wrap things up using as much of the unfinished manga and anime plot elements as possible.
