This book does have a lot of beautiful pictures. But most of them you have probably already seen before or can find scanned on the internet. The reason why I only gave it 4 stars is because there was a little to much white space on some of the pages and I did not like the pictures that span over 2 pages since this is a paper bound. Then paper it was printed on is good quallity and you will probably fiind the cheapest copy from amazon. If your a big fan of Cardcaptor Sukura then buy this book. (there are a few pictures with other characters to but the focuse is on Sukura)

I do think this artbook isn't as good as the other ones because it doesn't have a poster or a mini comic. However, it's still worth gettig no matter what. Also, this includes pictures from both season arcs and pictures from the first and second movie. And yes, it does include the Clamp notes, like the other two do.
I've probely been a ccs fan for more than 3 years and I've started a great collection which incudes{ this is the most stuff I own}: 7 artbooks and all 12 comics, plus more. I even preordered the second Cardcaptor Sakura movie.

Sakura was the first Manga that I got to know. I love the TV show, and I have all the Manga books (both series). I love to draw, and I get a lot of ideas from this Sakura art collection. The big pictures are amazing!

The artwork is as pretty as usual, however, there's very little variation. The first two books comprised of the whole manga series basically, so this 3rd book feels like an accumulation of all the scrap art left over. Sakura is basically modeling different outfits. There's less full page pictures than the first 2 books, and there's a lot more white space. I especially didn't find the chibi sakura pictures that enticing and they took up 20% of the book (it just meant more white space). I also noticed that Sakura's facial expression was nearly the same on every page (you know, the one with big eyes open and and giant half-circle smile).

Overall, it's an okay book. The artwork is great with detail and the price is good. I just felt that Sakura was more of a doll than a character. Good addition to your artbook collection though.

Since I already have all 3 and I must say that CLAMP have almost out done themselves! All the characters are in this book plus even Pictures of Nadeshiko which are just stunning! I have been a CCS fan for about 3years and I enjoy CLAMPS work very much. All the art books of CCS are worth buying you get great quality for a good price. In this book are lots of pictures of Chibi-sakura which are so cute! Even if you are staring out this is perfect to get! if you know someone who likes Anime or CLAMP or is familar with manga get this for them!! IM Sure they will LUV it!
