Book Review: Cardcaptor Sakura Vol. 3


Review:  #125
Title:  Cardcaptor Sakura Vol. 3
Series:  Cardcaptor Sakura – 3rd volume
Author:  Clamp
Read Before:  no
My Comments: A great volume and one that is noticeably superior to the first two. The stories of the chapters are really good, and a lot more enjoyable and exciting. The capturing of the Mirror Card was intense, and I loved how the reader had to try and guess what the card was as even Sakura didn't even know. The story arc spread over the two chapters was excellently done, and the reflection and change of heart of the Mirror Card at the end was a great touch. The next chapter of capturing of the Shield Card was also good, and pretty funny. While it ends with a cliffhanger, and have to wait until the next volume to see what it is going to be about as it doesn't reveal too much here (or if it does, you don’t understand what is going on right now). I like how we get to see the great side of Sakura’s brother, Toya, just overall, a very good volume, the ideas are original, I just don’t like the love subplots, especially Li as Sakura’s rival…
