Sometimes, all it takes to find true love is one moment of courage... and a lot of virtual friends. When Ikumi Saiki meets a beautiful girl on the train ride home, she seems to see his hidden hero within. But will he be brave enough to win her heart for certain? Desperate, he posts a plea on an internet message board: "Help me win the girl of my dreams!" Now, everyone in the online world is ready to help Ikumi realize that even he has a chance at true love.

Boy - bashful and not overly brave - defends girl from obnoxious drunk on a Tokyo train. Girl sends boy a thank-you pair of pricey Hermes teacups. Boy's a geek and doesn't know what to do next.

Sakura is the princess of Clow and possessor of a mysterious, misunderstood power that can change the world. Syaoran is her childhood friend and leader of the archaeological dig that cost him his father. Their names and faces may be familiar, but nothing about this story is what you think it is. Because this is another reality... where whatever you least expect can happen. And does...

They've been racing from world to world, separated only to be reunited as enemies. Now young Syaoran is at the center of the maelstrom - and only wits, luck, and some help from his friends will save the tiny band from destruction.

The Dragonfly Race is set to begin in Piffle World, and the prize for one lucky lightweight aircraft pilot is an amazingly powerful battery in the shape of a feather. But for the four dimension-travelers, and one odd creature named Mokona, who have joined the competition, the feather represents more than energy - it's one of Princess Sakura's lost memories!

All is not well on Piffle World. The magical land's most popular sporting event - a race for lightweight aircraft called dragonflies - seems to have been rigged by one of the contestants. But winning the competition is the only way Princess Sakura and her friends can recover one of her precious and powerful memory feathers. The five friends are determined to cross the finish line first, but the cheating is taking its toll: even Fai is out of the running!

Five friends must journey through time and space to lift a curse from beautiful Princess Sakura. Their quest now leads them to a world of magic and mysterious learning. Syaoran, the princess's young but fierce defender, is awestruck by this new world's enormous library. But when he opens one of the books, he is suddenly whisked away to a different dimension - a rough, barbaric place that resembles medieval Japan.

The odd group of dimension travelers arrives in a country full of magic. They seek a book that may hold the key to finding one of Princess Sakura's powerful memory feathers, but the volume they need turns out to be a national treasure, off limits to the public. Now Syaoran, Kurogane, and the others must brave traps, ravenous beasts, and some of the universe's strongest magicians in order to steal the book.

Kurogane, Syaoran, Fai, Mokona, and Princess Sakura have come upon a desert of shifting sands and ruined skyscrapers. This postapocalyptic nightmare is all that remains of the booming metropolis that was Tokyo, and the survivors are battling for the few life-giving resources left in the world.

The five dimension-hopping travelers have stuck together through all sorts of worlds and all kinds of harrowing adventures. But when the group enters the ruined city of Tokyo, two powerful fugitives set in motion a disastrous chain of events that may cause their tight-knit friendship to unravel. Syaoran's mysterious past is finally revealed, and a tumultuous battle leaves one of the friends near death, while another becomes an enemy after a shocking act of betrayal.
