The New Transfer Student Episode 1

Several months have passed since Sakura became the new master of the Clow Cards, and things are largely peaceful. At school, Sakura sees the arrival of a new transfer student, Eriol Hiiragizawa, prompting Syaoran to cancel his plans to return to Hong Kong. Toya's school also has a new student, Nakuru Akizuki. After school, it mysteriously begins to rain over Tomoeda, though nowhere else. While investigating the bizarre weather, Sakura finds she is unable to transform her new Star Key into the Star Wand and is in turn unable to use the Clow Cards. The situation gets so bad that Sakura, Tomoyo and Kero are forced to retreat after Sakura is unable to stop the downpour.

Unlocking the Key Episode 2

As the mysterious downpour continues over Tomoeda, Syaoran becomes jealous when Eriol befriends Sakura, while Nakuru begins interrupting Toya every time he tries to tell Yukito something important. Kero consults with Yue about the unnatural weather, explaining that he has felt a familiar presence. While attempting to investigate again with Kero, Yue, and Tomoyo, Sakura is once again unable to summon the Star Wand or use the Clow Cards, and the four are imprisoned in torrents of water. Sakura creates a new incantation based on her power of the stars, not only allowing her to use her wand but also able to change the Fiery Card, amplifying its power to such a degree that the downpour is stopped for good. Sakura frees herself and her friends, though the entire experience causes her to collapse from using too much magic.

The Dangerous Piano Episode 3

Exhausted from the events of the other night, Sakura remains in bed and sleeps into the afternoon before being visited by Syaoran and Tomoyo. Kero explains that Sakura used a great deal of power to transform the Clow Card, explaining her sudden tiredness. Since the Fiery Card was transformed to be under the jurisdiction of Sakura's power, Sakura's friends henceforth transform the cards into "Sakura Cards". Later at school, Sakura overhears Eriol playing the piano and has Tomoyo sing to his music; unbeknownst to them, however, Eriol enchants the piano while he plays. While waiting for Tomoyo to finish practicing her song, Sakura and Syaoran find her being attacked by the piano, which has been brought to life; in addition, Sakura senses Clow Reed's presence on the piano. Discovering that the piano is being lured to Tomoyo's voice, Sakura lures the piano to the roof of the school, transforms the Song card, and uses it to mimic Tomoyo's singing, tricking the piano into falling off the roof

The Threads That Bind Episode 4

Sakura begins to wonder if the bizarre goings are connected to Clow Reed's presence, though she is aware that Clow is long deceased. At recess, Rika shows everyone a teddy bear she made. Sakura decides to get her own teddy-bear-making kit at the craft store where she sees Eriol buying several spools of string. That night, Sakura and Kero once again sense Clow Reed's presence and meet up with Syaoran and Tomoyo. However, Syaoran's body begins moving against his will and attacks Sakura. Fortunately, he is able to cast a water spell around himself, revealing a set of invisible strings controlling his movements, which Sakura cuts with the transformed Sword card although yet again, she is left exhausted by the effort. Meanwhile, it is revealed that Eriol was the one manipulating Syaoran and that he is the reincarnation of Clow Reed. He has two servants: Spinel Sun, a beast similar to Kerberos, and Ruby Moon, the true form of Nakuru.

Attack of the Teddy Bear Episode 5

Several people at school have started making their own teddy bears to give to their loved ones, while Eriol helps Sakura make her bear for Yukito, secretly enchanting one of its ears. Syaoran, who also has feelings for Yukito and has made his own bear, begins falling in love with Sakura as well. Yue approaches the confused Syaoran and tells him that the reason he seems to be in love with Yukito is that he, having descended from Clow Reed, feels an attraction to the moon powers Yue emits as a creation of Clow. That night, Sakura gives Yukito the bear, only to see it grow in size in response to Eriol's magic. Yue awakens to protect Sakura from the bear but quickly loses his power. Sensing the bear's power source in its ear, Sakura transforms the Jump and Fly cards, the latter granting her a new winged form that allows her to use Sword as well (since both cards previously involved Sakura's wand transforming and couldn't be used simultaneously as Clow Cards), cutting off the bear's ear and

Trouble at the Park Episode 6

Yue secretly confides with Kerberos that he has recently been losing his energy and that Sakura's powers alone aren't enough to help him maintain himself; he adds that if his power disappears, both he and his alter ego Yukito, who is oblivious to this incident but growing increasingly aware of it, will fade from existence. Toya, who is aware of Yukito's predicament, attempts to tell him the truth but is once again interrupted by Nakuru, making it clear she is doing so on purpose. Meanwhile, Sakura's attention is drawn to a large, deep hole in the middle of the playground. She is able to enter the hole, though her friends are not since it is sealed by Clow Reed's magic. At the bottom of the hole, Sakura is buried under a pile of stuffed sheep. However, she converts the Erase card to obliterate the sheep.

Running Out of Time Episode 7

Sakura learns that the Clow Cards she is unable to use are beginning to lose their power, and will become ordinary cards if they aren't converted into Sakura Cards. Unwilling to let this happen, Sakura brings her Star Wand and despite Kero's misgivings, recklessly converts several cards at once although she's left weakened. However, she loses control of one of the cards, the Dash, which panics and flees, possessing Toya's bike which Eriol had enchanted earlier while helping Sakura clean her yard. During a frantic chase through the park, Kero scolds Sakura for her increasingly rash decisions and behavior, which prove troublesome to her attempts to corner the bike. Sakura jumps off to catch the bicycle but she can't reach it. Fortunately, Syaoran is there to catch her before she can fall to her death. Sakura eventually calms Dash down by using both Loop and Windy. After struggling, it returns to its card, much to Sakura's relief. As such, Sakura resolves to turn all the Clow Cards into S

Fujitaka gives Sakura her mother's old calendar and learns about her great-grandfather (the two had previously met, though Sakura remains unaware of his identity) and how he disapproved of his granddaughter's marriage to Fujitaka. Hoping to set things right, Sakura hand-makes a gift and uses the Flower card to decorate it, along with a letter about how happy her mother was. Tomoyo's mother Sonomi delivers the present to him, and he makes peace with Fujitaka. As a thank-you present, Sakura receives her mother's old dress from her great-grandfather, which she wore when she unknowingly met him.

While reading Alice in Wonderland, Sakura is sucked into the book's fantasy due to another of Eriol's enchantments, this time on a leaf he gave Sakura to use as a bookmark.

During the adventure, Sakura converts the Big and Little cards (in fruitless attempts to use them to her advantage) and discovers that Syaoran likes someone else other than Yukito. In the end, she manages to find the enchanted leaf floating in the sky and flies through it, allowing her to escape the book.

Sakura's school is hosting a bazaar, and Kero attends to eat sweets, hiding in the woods. Nakuru, meanwhile, brings Spinel Sun along and hides him in the same forest while she attends the bazaar. Kero meets Suppie (the pet name Nakuru gave him) but is completely oblivious to his true nature and befriends him, forcing him to eat some of the sweets. As a result, Suppie becomes intoxicated by the sugar and goes on an eating binge throughout the school.

Li's Calling Episode 11

Syaoran's feelings for Sakura have been steadily increasing, though he still doesn't understand why, and Sakura remains blissfully unaware of it. Soon Sakura invites him to go to a teddy bear festival with her, Tomoyo, and Eriol. However, Eriol secretly traps Sakura and Syaoran in an elevator, where the two grow closer. Eriol then creates a large hole in the wall of the elevator, causing Sakura to fall through. Distraught, Syaoran calls out to Sakura by her first name for the first time. Fortunately, Sakura is able to float to safety with the Float card into the relieved Syaoran's arms. Later, Sakura feels that she and Syaoran have become very close friends, and asks him if she can call him "Syaoran" as well (having referred to him by his surname "Li" up until now). After agreeing, he finally accepts that he has fallen in love with Sakura.

Double Trouble Episode 12

Eriol casts a spell on Kerberos and Yue so that they are unable to revert to their guise forms, much to Sakura's dismay, since it is understandably difficult to hide their true forms for long. Fortunately, Toya and Fujitaka are out for the day, and Sakura has them help around the house while reminiscing about their time with Clow Reed. Eventually, Sakura gets the idea of using the Shield card, which can nullify and protect people from magic, and the two guardians are able to revert to their original forms. Eriol becomes impressed by Sakura's increasing skill, while Kero begins to wonder who besides Clow Reed would have the power to prevent them from transforming.

Trapped Episode 13

Sakura grows in magical strength and power for every Clow Card she transforms into a Sakura Card, while Yue's energy begins to falter. Yue also comes to the realization that Eriol is in fact Clow Reed and transforms in front of him. However, Eriol makes Yukito faint and erases his memory of him ever realizing who Eriol truly is; Clow Reed, since he is not yet ready to reveal himself and also reverses Yue's transformation back into Yukito. Syaoran, in the meantime, has fully realized his strong romantic feelings for Sakura and consults with Tomoyo, who helps him deal with his jealousy towards Eriol and gives him the confidence (just barely, though) to speak his mind to the oblivious Sakura. Before he can do so, however, both he and Sakura sense Clow Reed's presence once again, this time in the form of a basketball that leads them through the school at night. Space has been warped in the building, causing every door to lead into a different room each time, which separates her from Tomoyo

Just Like Old Times Episode 14

While Meiling spends the day with her old friends, the group is attacked by a set of enchanted penguin statues at the playground. Acting upon Meiling's advice, Sakura transforms the Freeze card and uses it to freeze the statues, allowing her and Syaoran to defeat the penguins. During the incident, however, Meiling realizes exactly why Syaoran called her. Seemingly accepting of the matter, Meiling breaks off their "engagement"; in reality, however, she is heartbroken and visits Tomoyo upon her suggestion to bawl over it. Feeling better, Meiling encourages Syaoran to confess his love to Sakura as soon as possible, since Sakura would never know about them otherwise, before leaving the next morning, Meiling leaves a cryptic message for Sakura indirectly

A Present For the Cards Episode 15

Kero is almost positive that Toya knows everything about Sakura's secret, though Sakura dismisses his claims, saying Toya would make fun of her if he did. Toya, meanwhile, is certain that Nakuru is deliberately interrupting him while he tries to tell Yukito the truth about why he is always feeling fatigued. The two make plans to buy a Christmas present for their father, though Sakura senses Clow Reed's presence again. Sakura uses the Mirror card to create her double and cover for her while she fights off a pair of enchanted fence bars with Syaoran, destroying them by using the Mist card to corrode and disintegrate them. However, Toya immediately recognizes the Mirror card but goes shopping with her anyway. In gratitude to the Mirror card for looking after his little sister, Toya gives her a ribbon for her long hair in her true form. When Sakura returns home, she plays a recording of a hymn she and Eriol played on the piano together earlier to thank all the Clow and Sakura cards for the

Sakura's Strange Fortune Episode 16

Sakura goes to a New Year's festival and notices that Yukito isn't around. Toya goes to check on him, discovering that he has not only collapsed from fatigue, but he's also beginning to fade from existence since Sakura's power, despite how strong it has become, is not enough to sustain Yue. Later at the festival, she receives a fortune from Eriol which he secretly made and enchanted, saying that she will begin to learn the "truth" in her "first dream of the year." That night, Sakura transforms the Dream card in her sleep and has a dream of the sky being blanketed by darkness emanating over Tsukimine Shrine, where she sees the silhouettes of Eriol, Spinel Sun, and Ruby Moon.

Slippery Slope Episode 18

Sakura's class goes on a field trip to the mountains for skiing lessons. At the lodge, Syaoran admits to Sakura that the person he cares for most is not Yukito and that his attraction to him was actually his reaction to Yue's power; however, he still can't bring himself to tell Sakura that she is the one he's in love with. The next day, Sakura goes up the mountain with Eriol when a blizzard begins to form. At the top of the mountain, there is an avalanche that threatens to bury the lodge at the foot of the mountain where their classmates are. Sakura transforms the Time card in an attempt to stop the avalanche without Eriol seeing, but it uses up so much of her energy that she passes out. However, Eriol stops the avalanche himself (suggesting he caused it in the first place) and saves Sakura, voicing his reluctance to put her in harm's way so frequently.

Alone with Yukito in one of the attractions, Sakura tells Yukito how much she likes him. However, Yukito gently rebuffs her, saying that her love for him is merely fatherly, quite similar to the deep feelings she has for her father and that he already has someone he really likes and cares for a lot. Sakura, in a rare moment of insight, realizes that person to be her older brother, Toya. Yukito tells Sakura that the person she really likes most is still out there when Sakura senses Clow Reed's presence once more.

Eriol reveals his true identity to Sakura and Syaoran to be the reincarnation of Clow Reed's spirit. He sets his final challenge: turn all of the remaining Clow cards into Sakura Cards or the world will remain an eternal sleep and darkness. Sakura manages to turn six of the eight cards into Sakura Cards except for the Light and Dark ones because both cards are loyal to Clow Reed and she is not powerful enough. Kero and Yue both help out Sakura by embedding their power into her staff, however, if Sakura still fails then they will remain asleep in the staff forever. Sakura hesitantly accepts and the staff is transformed. With further magic enhancement from Syaoran, Sakura transforms them and all the cards are now hers. She lifts the darkness and breaks Eriol's spell but he disappears before given an explanation. Yue and Kero give chase whilst Sakura checks on an exhausted Syaoran.

While there, Eriol explained that the cards needed to be handed over to the new owner, but without a reason, the cards would run amuck. He refused to reveal his identity sooner because he knew Sakura would do her best if she didn't know what was going on. It also turns out that Kaho Mizuki also knew his identity (he was the one who gave her the bell). Eriol explains he knew how everything was going to turn out apart from one detail: he believed that Yukito would romantically love Sakura in return, however, he loves Toya, and Sakura loves Syaoran. With the incidents resolved and the cards converted, Syaoran secretly plans to return to Hong Kong. As he is preparing to leave, Tomoyo finds out and tells Sakura. Heartbroken, Sakura says that she doesn't want him to go and that she may indeed lov
