Cardcaptor Sakura (1998–2000): Season 1, Episode 31 - Sakura and the Nameless Book - full transcript

After school one day, the girls and I ended up going to a used bookstore, but Sakura noticed the presence of a Clow Card. Since the area was so crowded, we decided to come back later that night to capture the card. When we came back, Xiaolang and Meiling showed up, and Kero and Meiling started arguing until we saw a huge cat walking around toward us! The cat chased us, but was happy to just cuddle with Xiaolang until Sakura captured the Big card, and the cat returned to normal. Just when we thought we were done for the day, animals with strange wings and swirly eyes started popping up everywhere. It turns out someone was using the Create card and everything they were writing was coming true! We were going to save capturing it until the next day, but then a huge dragon appeared and started heading toward town, so Sakura used the Big card on herself and fought the dragon! Just when it looked like Sakura was going to lose, the person stopped writing, and Sakura was able to capture the Create card, too!

Morning!

You're so noisy in the morning.

I'm not noisy.

A monster will shakes the whole
house by just walking around.

I'm not a monster!

Have you gained weight recently?

It's fall, the season
for monsters to gain weight.

I haven't gained weight!

It looks like you haven't
gotten any taller, at least.

This sucks!

One day, I'll grow big, and for sure'



I'll squish him for sure!

[Sakura and the Book wih No Name]

Naoko!

Sakura.

It's lunchtime, right?

Come eat with us.

Yes.

What were you reading?

I borrowed it from the library.

Is it a scary book?

No, it's a fantasy novel.

Fantasy?

Do you like reading fantasy novels?

It looks interesting.



What kind of story is it?

There's a dragon, and there's
a turtle bigger than a mountain!

There's a story like that from China,
you know.

Mei-ling'

It's like the one about the
old man who saved his village'

'from a day long siege by 100 horsemen.

Hey, you know where Shao-Lang is?

He's supposed to eat lunch with me,

but he isn't around.

If you're looking for Li,
he was heading towards the roof.

Oh, okay. Thanks!

Shao-Lang!

Mei-ling!

Why'd you disappear even though

you knew I made lunch for you?!

That's'

Meanie, meanie, meanie, meanie, meanie!

It's because I felt an aura!

By 'aura,' do you mean'

A Clow Card.

Hey, is that any good?

How nice'

A used book store.

Hey, can we go check it out
for a few minutes?

Sure.

Naoko sure is a book lover.

Just a while ago she was praised

by Miss Midori for her reading.

That's right.

Is there something wrong?

The aura of a Clow Card.

Where is it coming from?

From there I think.

Do you need to go find it?

Yeah'

Sakura, Tomoyo, what's wrong?

Oh, nothing. We'll be right there.

Is it alright about the card'?

There are too many people, anyway. We'll
come back later tonight and find it.

As the Card Captor, right?

I made a new costume for you!

T' Tomoyo'

Huh?

There's no name on the spine.

Huh?

Please write the next
chapter of this story.

Sounds interesting.
I'll get this!

It's so cute!

I'm so happy'

Your happiness comes pretty easy.

Being with someone you love'

'and being able to take a video of her

wearing cute clothes!

I couldn't ask for a better situation!

You'll get a shot of
the super-cool me, too, right?

Are you playing around?

Huh?

You getting in our way again,
brat and little wench?

You're getting in our way.

You're too late, anyway.

Shao-Lang noticed the aura of a Clow Card

around lunchtime.

Sakura had noticed by then, too!

Right?

Yeah, but it was when
I was coming home from school'

Yay! Shao-Lang was first!

No way!

Sakura is gonna tell us

where the card is now!

Shao-Lang already knows!

Right, Sakura?

Right, Shao-Lang?

Yes.

Where is it?

Over there'

Just a cat'

I' it ain't a normal cat'

What?

Fly!

Tomoyo!

Mei-ling!

I don't taste good!

Let Mei-ling go!

Li!

What's with this guy?

Eh?

It appears that it likes Li.

Might be the Big card.

'Big'?

'Big,' means enlarge?

Big can enlarge objects.

So where's the card at?

Over there!

The card!

Hey, let me go!

Hey, quit interfering with Shao-Lang!
Get off of him!

There it is! Sakura,
that's the Big card!

Sakura, seal it!

Eh?

It's just a big fish!

Show me some Card Captor courage!

Return to thy true form,
Clow Card!

All right!

You did it!

Here you go.

Oh, geez.

It's your fault we didn't get that card.

Are you listening?

That was good.

This book leaves room for a sequel.

Oh, that's right.

[Please write the next
chapter of this story.]
'Next chapter,' huh?

That's right'

That card was going
to be Shao-Lang's!

But what actually happened was'

That was just luck!

Now, now, you two'

If that big cat hadn't
gotten in our way,

the card would be Shao-Lang's!

If Sakura hadn't sealed that card,

you might've been
eaten by that cat!

What was that?!

You little wench!

Um'

What's wrong, Sakura?

Gh' h' h' g'gh'

A ghost?

Yes.

Ghost?

There's nothing there.

Shuu.

'And so, the princess
didn't know where she was.'

What's after that'?

That's it!

I saw it! I saw it!

Did you see it too,
Mei-ling?

Yeah'

Then it's not a ghost.

Why?

Because you don't have
that kind of perception.

Tomoyo, did you see it, too?

Yes.

Tomoyo doesn't have
magic powers either.

Which means'

It's not a ghost?

Exactly!

What a relief!

Eh?

W' what's that?

A panther!

Did it escape from the zoo?

What's that?

It's got graffiti-like eyes!

Do Japanese panthers have wings?

I don't think you'll find that in a zoo.

There sure are a lot of weird things

wandering around in Japan.

That's not really'

This could be'

'The panther, hippo
and the others grew wings''

'' and they enjoyed
the experience of flying.'

'But that's not all.'

'Other animals

and fish grew wings, too.'

Are these all the work
of a Clow Card?

The only one that could
do this is the Create card.

Create is the one

where if you write it,
it will become reality?

Right. It's gotta be nearby.

But we didn't feel it at all.

Yeah, there was only
the Big card's aura.

Then again, with all this,
someone must be using Create

To make all these things appear.

I wonder if it's okay to undo all this.

Anyway, it's a pretty forgiving card,

so I think it'll be'

Now what?

'And then, finally''

'' growing wings''

'' the very, very big King appeared.'

A' a monster!

This is bad.

What should we do?

We can only hope the person
using Create will stop soon.

Oh, no!

It's heading towards the city.

At this rate,
it'll crush a bunch of houses!

Lightning, come forth!

Why won't it stop?

It's too big.

What? Big? That's it!
There's a way!

What?

No! Definitely no!

There's no other way!

I don't wanna!

At this rate it's gonna
wreck the city of Tomoeda!

But'

You mustn't forget your responsibility
as the Card Captor!

I'm asking you, too, Sakura'

Tomoyo'

Okay. I'll try it.

That's great!

This will make a fantastic video!

Give me the size to meet this challenge!

Big!

All right!

That's fantastic!

This is so embarrassing!

What're you talking about, Sakura?!
Go and beat that monster!

Hey, you monster!

That's it, that's it!

I saw something like this on TV!

The hero stopping the disaster'

I never thought I'd see it for real!

Stay away from me!

Hit it with some kind of beam!

Fight with it

Can she really do it?

I don't know if Sakura has any way

to beat a monster like that.

Sakura!

Sakura!

Eh?

Time to go to bed.

All right!
Whoever's using Create has stopped!

Eh!

Sakura,

seal it before
it disappears completely!

Yes.

Return to thy true form'
Clow Card!

Good job, Sakura!

I didn't know what would happen!

You're still looking kinda big.

This is so embarrassing!

The book is' gone'

This is a big mystery!

Good morning!

Your bumping around
is noisy again today.

I'm not noisy.

A monster will shake the whole
house by just walking around.

What? No counterattack?

I can step on you anytime.

Eh?

Big!
