Crunchyroll Adds “Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Prologue” and “Sealed Card” Movie


Don’t think that Sakura’s adventures are over just yet!

Earlier today, Crunchyroll announced that they added Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Prologue, as well as feature film Cardcaptor Sakura: The Sealed Card to their digital lineup. Both titles launched earlier today.

Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Prologue

Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Prologue is available in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands, Nordic regions, Central America, and South America.

The special debuted at Anime Expo 2017, before shipping with the third volume of the Japanese release for the Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card manga. Morio Asaka (Cardcaptor Sakura, Chihayafuru) directed the project at Madhouse, with Kunihiko Hamada (Chihayafuru, Nana) providing character designs.

Kodansha describes the title as:

After the conflict with Eriol at the Tokyo Tower, Sakura attained the final Clow Cards: The Dark and The Light. Since then, everything’s gone back to normal––but only briefly.

While Eriol has decided to move back to England, Syaoran suddenly confesses his true feeling for Sakura and tells her he is moving back to Hong Kong. What will Sakura do? Although she’s unsure of her own feelings, her best friend Tomoyo tells Sakura that the true answer already lies within her. That is when Sakura decides to make something for her dear friend.

Cardcaptor Sakura the Movie 2: The Sealed Card

Cardcaptor Sakura the Movie 2: The Sealed Card is available to users in the United States and Canada.

Cardcaptor Sakura: The Sealed Card is the second film in the original Cardcaptor Sakura series. The 2000 movie was directed by Morio Asaka (Chihayafuru, NANA) at Madhouse, with Nanase Ohkawa (Cardcaptor Sakura, Magic Knight Rayearth) writing the screenplay.

Crunchyroll describes the feature as:

In Cardcaptor Sakura: The Sealed Card, Sakura and Syaoran are reunited at last — but as Sakura tries to come to terms with her feelings for Syaoran, the two must face off against the strongest Clow Card ever made!
