This Magical Girl Anime series follows the daily life of a young girl named Sakura Kinomoto. When the series starts, she is a normal Japanese elementary school girl, but all that changes when she stumbles across an ancient book called The Clow. She accidently scatters the book's magical contents - the Clow Cards - all over the small town of Tomoedo, where she lives. With the help of the Beast of the Seal, Kerberos, Sakura finds herself dubbed a "Cardcaptor" whose job it is to quickly capture all the cards in order to prevent a terrible world disaster that many would consider "worse than death".

This series is easily the best of the famous Magical Girl genre of Anime. While the premise is simple, the characters and their relationships with each other are not. With CLAMP animation studios behind it, it has beautiful artwork and animation - it's one of the only shows ever where all the characters change their clothes every day! Despite each episode having the same base idea, the presentation is so varied that it never seems the least bit repetitive. The storyline has a number of very mysterious elements and twists that keep viewers good and glued to the screen. All of these things have made it one of most popular Anime series of all time.
