There’s literally so much stuff that they could make an entire museum out of it.
The new Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card Arc anime is set to air in Japan come 7 January, and it’s never too late to rewatch previous episodes to catch up with the plot.
To commemorate the kickoff of a new series after 17 years, anime character goods store Kiddy Land has collaborated with the Cardcaptor Sakura franchise to bring a ton of merchandise to eager fans. All 39 Kiddy Land branches in Japan will set up special stores on 8 January dedicated to Sakura Kinomoto and her friends, but only a few branches come with exclusive bonus items.

these limited postcards are timeless collectables.
