Recommended 98 min 2000

When to watch: Best watched after Episode 70 of Cardcaptor Sakura for full context.

Released July 15, 2000 with a 98-minute runtime, this second Madhouse film — also directed by Morio Asaka — takes place after the TV series finale. A dangerous, unnamed card sealed away by Clow Reed himself begins to awaken, and Sakura must face it without the safety net of Kero or her other guardians nearby, in a story that more directly follows on from the series' ending than the first film.
