"Cardcaptor Sakura," a magical manga series centered on Sakura Kinimoto, has been confirmed to return in 2018. The brand new animated series is expected to be directed by Morio Asaka who also worked on the original show. Below are some important scoops we have gathered so far.

As reported by Anime News Network, the manga sequel "Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Arc" will be adapted into an anime TV series. The new TV adaptation will be aired on NHK and will be produced by Madhouse. It was also revealed that some of the original voice cast members will reprise their roles namely Sakura Tange as Sakura, Aya Hisakawa as Keroberos, Junko Iwao as Tomoyo Daidōji, Motoko Kumai as Syaoran Li, Megumi Ogata as Yukito Tsukishiro and Tomokazu Seki as Tōya Kinomoto.

"Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Arc" manga, according to DenofGeek, followed Sakura after she graduated from Tomoeda Elementary School. She entered junior high and tried to adjust her new life. However, she encountered a mysterious dream wherein an incident has taken place and disrupted her life once again.

It can be recalled that Sakura is just a simple girl who became a master of magical cards called Clow Cards. She opened the book of Clow Cards that caused the magic cards to scatter in her town which could be dangerous for their neighborhood. Because of the threat that the cards can bring, Sakura was tasked by a guardian named Kerberos to collect all the Clow Cards before it's too late.

The card captor has a best friend named Tomoyo Daidouji who has always encouraged her and supported her in her mission. However, Sakura also met with a rival, Syaoran Li, who was revealed to be a descendant of the Clow Cards creator. Syaoran apparently believes that he should be the sole person to inherit and capture all the Clow Cards.
