The fifteenth volume of Card Captor Sakura ~Clear Card arc~ debuted at the 4th position in Oricon’s weekly ranking, with an estimate of 53,972 copies sold in its first week of sales for the regular edition. The Special Edition (Clear Bookmarks) landed on the 30th position, with an estimate of 15,447 copies sold. Combined, both versions sold an estimate of 69,419 copies.
This is the highest first week sales for a Clear Card volume since volume 11 (77,190 copies). It definitely seems like the series reaching its climax has picked up on the sales.
Moreover, Card Captor Sakura ~Clear Card arc~ volume 15 was this week’s most sold title published by Kodansha.
Finally, it is always worth mentioning that Oricon only takes into account a certain number of shops and preorders are likely not taken into account. These numbers are only an estimate and it’s possible that the real figures are higher than these.

Kodansha and CLAMP are releasing a 2024 calendar based on the manga of Card Captor Sakura Clear Card for the first time in years. It is the first manga-based calendar released for Clear Card.
The calendar follows the same look and feel of the original Card Captor Sakura calendars released in the late 1990s and early 2000s — except the typography is different — and features 12 illustrations previously released either as chapter title page or the cover of Nakayoshi magazine. The calendar cover features a new illustration drawn by CLAMP.
It goes on sale November 13 (same release date as volume 15 of Clear Card) for 3,300 yens.

Curious how they are releasing this only now that we are at the final stages of the manga.. What took them so long? Better late than never =) That cover is GORGEOUS!
Card Captor Sakura Clear Card arc volume 15 will be released on November 13, 2023. This time, the special edition will come with a 15-piece clear bookmark set featuring the 15 illustrations that appear in the covers of the Clear Card volumes.
The bookmarks will come with a case to store them.
Here are pictures of the volume cover and the special edition:
Volume 15 is listed as having 160 pages, which is the average number of pages for Clear Card. This volume probably includes up to Chapter 75.
Love the “redness” in the illustration!
They are both available for pre-order at Amazon Japan with worldwide shipping: [Regular Edition], [Special Limited Edition]

Last December, it was announced that Card Captor Sakura Clear Card arc would end with volume 15, originally scheduled to be released in October, 2023.
However, Kodansha and CLAMP went back on that decision again and announced that the series will actually end on volume 16, which is scheduled to be released on April 1st of 2024.
Here’s the official announcement, which was shared in CLAMP’s official website and twitter account:
Volume 15 will come out on November 13th, 2023 (new date).
Volume 16 (final) will come out on April 1st, 2024.
Okay so here we go again…
Likely CLAMP would like more pages to end the series in an even more proper way than volume 15 would allow them. The last volume of the original series, volume 12, had a more relaxing pace after the final battle and maybe they want to have a similar experience with Clear Card. There is also the second season of the anime in the works, which may or may not have impacted this decision. I don’t know if the new season will be ready in time to be aired while the manga is still running. It’s a possibility. To be seen.
On the other hand, there is still no news about XXXHOLiC Rei, which was originally scheduled to be resumed on the Japanese Spring of 2023. It will most likely be affected once again by these changes.
