Line 42:
**** Besides, no one says she ''has'' to do to her successor what Clow did to her. It's ''Sakura''; she could conceivably find another way to pass the cards on. Remember, Sakura was the first person to whom the cards had ever been passed on; it's not like there were ten other Cardcaptors before her to set a precedent. And remember, Kero '''fell asleep'''. If he hadn't been asleep and had stopped Sakura from opening the book and had taught her about the cards ''first''... things could have been a lot different.
***** Remember also that by the end of the series, Sakura is stated to have become more powerful than Clow Reed himself, and given that she was only ten at the time, her powers could have increased even further. It's possible that she's found a way (or will eventually) to sustain the cards beyond her death, ''without'' needing a successor to her power. Hell, this could have even been a part of Clow's original gambit.
****** Supported by the fact that in [[xxxHolic×××HOLiC]] we find out that Sakura paid her Star Staff to Ichihara Yuuko (the reason has major spoilers for both Holic and [[Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]]). It doesn't mention what happened to the Cards or Kero and Yue (we ''may'' find out once Holic and TRC finally finish up, but this is Clamp), but presumably Sakura wouldn't have let anything bad happen to them. So she may have found a way to support them without the staff.
****** Most likely, the staff is a conduit rather than the source of her powers. While it may have made it easier for her to use them, she was probably able to give it up knowing that she'd still have her magic.
****** Yes, but the staff is also the ''key'' to the Clow book. So unless she wanted the Cards running amok after her death, she'd have to change ''something'' in Clow's original formula.

== Eriol created the design of Ruby Moon and Spinel Sun as homage to Yuuko ==
* The logic on this one is pretty simple. Eriol is {{spoiler|the reincarnation of Clow Reed that contains all the memories of the original}}. Clow Reed was very involved with Yuuko and {{spoiler|wished her to open her eyes when she died, causing her continued existence and a lot of the problems in the [[xxxHolic×××HOLiC]] story}}, so he probably was at the very least a friend and must have known that the butterfly was her symbol. So when Eriol went to make Ruby Moon and Spinnel Sun as alternates to Yue and Keroberos he gave them butterfly wings and a darker color scheme as homage to her. It also explains why, despite being a technically [[No Biological Sex|sexless]] spirit, Ruby Moon [[Wholesome Crossdresser|dresses]] and [[Genki Girl|acts]] the way 'she' does.
 
== Eriol and Sakura's Father merge again as the Emperor of Man ==
