Three new wristwatches have been released based on the designs of the Sakura Cards, Clow Cards, and other characters from the TV anime Cardcaptor Sakura. Pre-orders are currently being accepted at AMNIBUS, which sells original anime and manga goods.
Cardcaptor Sakura is a manga by the creative group CLAMP that was serialized in the monthly shojo manga magazine Nakayoshi from 1996 to 2000. It depicts the exploits of Sakura, also known as Kinomoto Sakura, who struggles as a cardcaptor to retrieve the Clow Cards, which are said to bring disaster to the world. It was adapted into an anime by NHK from 1998 to 2000, with the first and second seasons being called the Clow Card Arc, and the third season being called the Sakura Card Arc.
In 2016, the 20th anniversary of the series, a new chapter, Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card, began for the first time in 16 years. In 2021, the series celebrated its 25th anniversary, and many related goods were released. The Clear Card arc will conclude in 2023 after seven and a half years of serialization. The Clear Card arc continues to garner excitement, with the production of an anime sequel already confirmed.
The new watches are packed with the world of Cardcaptor Sakura. There are three types in the lineup: one that incorporates the Sakura Cards and the Clow Cards into its design, and one that recreates a watch that appears in the series.
The “Sakura Card -THE FLOWER-” model is inspired by the Sakura Card from “THE FLOWER”, and features an orchid pink band and a gold case, giving it a cute and gorgeous design.
On the other hand, the green-based “Clow Card -THE MIRROR-” model is inspired by the Clow Cards from “THE MIRROR”. With an emerald green band and gold case, it has a cute yet solemn design.
The two products mentioned above are housed in a special, luxurious box with a black base and the logo embossed on it.
Also, a model called “Present from Yukito-san” has been released, which is a replica of the watch given to Sakura by Yukito, an older man whom she admires.
The watch has a stylish design with a heart wearing a crown in the center of the dial, and the hour and minute hands are feathers.
The box for this product is a simple white long box, reflecting the design of the product in the story.
The Cardcaptor Sakura watches “Sakura Card -THE FLOWER-“, “Clow Card -THE MIRROR-“, and “Present from Yukito-san” are priced at 7,128 yen each (tax included).
All of them are available for preorder until November 20, 2024 on the online shopping site “AMNIBUS”. Shipments will begin in late March 2025.
