Character and Role
Naoko is one of Sakura Kinomoto's (Sakura Avalon in Cardcaptors) classmates in school. She, along with Rika Sasaki (Rita) and Chiharu Mihara (Chelsea), often appear alongside Sakura at school and during school events. She is also on the school's cheerleading squad with Sakura.Naoko loves reading various types of stories, especially fantasy stories and ghost stories. While Sakura reacts to scary situations with utmost fear, Naoko reacts with fascination and a brave willingness to explore these mysterious situations further.
Naoko is involved in the main plot in episode 31 with her discovery of , a Clow Card hiding as a book in an old bookstore. Naoko buys the book when she learns that it is a book that allows the reader to write whatever ending he or she chooses. The power of The Create is that whatever is written or described on its pages will come true. Naoko writes a story about mystical creatures with swirls for eyes as well as other odd circumstances that completely confuse Sakura and company when they investigate the mysterious happenings. Naoko remains obilvious to The Create's power, as all her writings are brought to life relatively far from her bedroom. Naoko brings her story to a climax with the appearance of a fire-breathing dragon (which Sakura fights through the last few minutes of the episode), but she decides to go to bed before finishing it. She closes her book, which in turn halts The Create's power, and every magical being that was created disappears. Sakura takes this opportunity to capture The Create before all the creations completely fade away. When Naoko wakes up the next morning to find her book suddenly missing, she believes she just had a supernatural experience.
