Syaoran Li
Also known as: Li-kun, The Brat
A descendant of Clow Reed sent from Hong Kong to claim the Clow Cards, who began as Sakura's scowling rival and melted, one blush at a time, into her most devoted ally. His teddy bear confession remains shoujo's gold standard of a rival falling first.

Other Cardcaptor Sakura Characters
Sakura Kinomoto
5k works
A relentlessly kind fourth-grader who accidentally scattered the Clow Cards and rollerblades through Tomoeda capturing them in Tomoyo's costumes. Her catchphrase 'everything will surely be all right' is the gentlest invincibility in magical girl history.
Touya Kinomoto
3k works
Sakura's teasing older brother, who has always seen spirits and silently clocked every magical event in the series while pretending otherwise. He gives up his power — and his ability to see their mother's ghost — to save Yukito without a second thought.
Yukito Tsukishiro
3k works
A gentle, perpetually hungry high schooler who is also Yue, the Clow Cards' lunar judge, without knowing it for most of the series. His quiet acceptance of his dual nature — and of Touya's sacrifice — made him half of one of anime's earliest tender queer couples.
