Kodansha's Nakayoshi magazine recently revealed that it will contain a huge announcement for the Cardcaptor Sakura franchise in its December issue. Or to quote the magazine exactly, "huge, huge, huge announcement on super big news."  

Recently, series creator CLAMP launched the the Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card Hen (Card Captor Sakura: Clear Card Arc) sequel manga series in Nakayoshi's July issue.  The series follows Sakur as she progresses through Junior High School.  

Anime studios are certainly aiming for nostalgia dollars as recent years have seen new series from Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon and Digimon.  Could Cardcaptor Sakura be next?

CLAMP's original Cardcaptor Sakura manga was published from May 2, 1996 to Jul 3, 2000, concluding at 12 volumes/50 chapters. 

UPDATE: It seems an anime project was already announced back in May, that will be based on CLAMP's sequel manga.  It's likely tha the announcement in December will be for the premiere date.

This year mark's the 20th Anniversary of the original manga. Madhouse produced an anime adaptation that premiered in Japan from April 1998 and concluded in March 2000.

ABOUT CARDCAPTOR SAKURA
Sakura Kinomoto is your garden-variety ten-year-old fourth grader, until one day, she stumbles upon a mysterious book containing a set of cards. Unfortunately, she has little time to divine what the cards mean because she accidentally stirs up a magical gust of wind and unintentionally scatters the cards all over the world. Suddenly awakened from the book, the Beast of the Seal, Keroberos (nicknamed Kero-chan), tells Sakura that she has released the mystical Clow Cards created by the sorcerer Clow Reed. The Cards are no ordinary playthings. Each of them possesses incredible powers, and because they like acting independently, Clow sealed all the Cards within a book. Now that the Cards are set free, they pose a grave danger upon the world, and it is up to Sakura to prevent the Cards from causing a catastrophe!

Appointing Sakura the title of "the Cardcaptor" and granting her the Sealed Key, Keroberos tasks her with finding and recapturing all the Cards. Alongside her best friend Tomoyo Daidouji, and with Kero-chan's guidance, Sakura must learn to balance her new secret duty with the everyday troubles of a young girl involving love, family, and school, all while she takes flight on her magical adventures as Sakura the Cardcaptor.
