New Cardcaptor Sakura Artbook Collects Beautiful Animation Materials

 

Manga and anime team CLAMP took magical girl anime to new heights with Cardcaptor Sakura, and not just with their beautiful art and wide array of battle dresses. But the art is a massive part of the appeal... and if you want to revisit it, a new collection from Anime Style will let you do just that.

 

Titled the Cardcaptor Sakura Archive, the 536-page artbook brings together full-color and line art from all across the anime's run. You'll get a closer look at Sakura's many battle outfits, as well as scenery, props, and other settings:
