Description
Li Meilling is a supporting character from the anime film Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 2: The Sealed Card. She is a cousin of Syaoran Li and hails from Hong Kong. In this movie, Meilling returns to Tomoeda together with Syaoran for a summer vacation visit, a trip secretly orchestrated by her and Tomoyo Daidoji to create an opportunity for Sakura Kinomoto to confess her feelings to Syaoran.

Meilling possesses no magical abilities, but she is highly skilled in Chinese martial arts and boxing. Her physical combat skills make her a capable ally during confrontations with magical beings. In the film, she participates in a school play, taking on the role of a princess's maid. She also directly assists in the battle against the Nothing card, working alongside Sakura and Syaoran to counter the threat.

Her personality is energetic, outgoing, and at times boastful, but she also demonstrates a strong will, a kind heart, and genuine consideration for others. Earlier in the series, she viewed Sakura as a rival for Syaoran’s affection and was often defensive about her cousin. Over time, she matured and developed a close friendship with Sakura. By the events of the movie, Meilling has fully accepted Sakura and actively supports the romantic relationship between Sakura and Syaoran, acting as a matchmaker alongside Tomoyo. Her motivations center on helping the people she cares about, especially Syaoran, and she takes joy in being part of the group’s efforts to resolve the crisis.

Meilling’s key relationships include her cousin Syaoran, toward whom she is loyal and protective, and Sakura, who evolved from a rival into a dear friend. She also shares a friendly bond with Tomoyo, collaborating with her on the matchmaking plan. Her development is evident in her shift from a jealous, rivalrous stance to a supportive, selfless role. Notable abilities aside from martial arts include her keen physical reflexes and the courage to face magical dangers despite lacking powers of her own. Her distinctive appearance features long black hair styled in buns and bright red outfits.
