If the cards aren't in the book, they come to life and do evil Kerberos formed a contract with Sakura making her a Cardcaptor and together with Sakura's best friend, Tomoyo, they embark on a mystical journey to capture all the Clow Cards before the Cards can wreak chaos and destruction.

In this manga we get to see a bit more of Sakura's mysterious new substitute teacher and the teacher's past with her brother, Toya. Also, Sakura discovers a new side of Li when he helps her with a couple of her Clow Card adventures (pre-echos of his stint as Sakura's hero, Syaoran in the Tsubasa

series). Yukito is a remarkably likable character as evidenced by crushes on him by Sakura, Li and even (I suspect) Toya. I'm really enjoying this series. Because it is really rated for the younger set of manga readers than teens or adults I wasn't sure if it would be interesting enough to hold my attention. Without a doubt I've been delightfully surprised by how much I'm enjoying it. I would certainly recommend it to anyone, kids or adults, who are looking for a starter manga in the urban fantasy genre.

In v.4 as Sakura is battling mazes and ancient terrors, we learn more about the mysterious Kaho. She seems to be a miko at a local shrine called "Tsukimine" (she's the only one wearing traditional Japanese clothing at the festival which was kind of a huge let down). Kaho likes Toya but realizes

that he's gay, even if he doesn't want to admit it to himself. Li-kun seems to have a lot more magical powers than he first let on, and we're lead to believe Kaho does too. The cutenesss in this volume was more situational, but there was one image when the four friends are walking to the festival that's just adorable.
