Tomoyo Daidouji

Tomoyo Daidouji is the deuteragonist of Clamp's anime and manga series Cardcaptor Sakura. Tomoyo is the best friend of the series' protagonist, Sakura Kinomoto, and her second cousin on their mothers' sides.
In the Japanese version, she is voiced by Junko Iwao.
In the English version, she was first voiced by Maggie Blue O'Hara in Cardcaptors, Michelle Ruff, who also voiced Rukia Kuchiki and Asada Shino, in Card Captor Sakura the Movie 2: The Sealed Card, and Natalie Hoover, who also voiced Sonia Nevermind, in the Clear Card Arc.
==Appearance==
Tomoyo is an elegant and delicate-looking young girl with porcelain-white skin and long, wavy, grayish-violet hair, which is very similar to that of Sakura's mother, Nadeshiko Kinomoto. It was later revealed that Tomoyo's own mother, Sonomi Daidouji, had made her grow her hair like that so she would look like Nadeshiko. 
She also has purple eyes, making her and Sakura the only two people to have an eye colour other than brown or gray from her other classmates (excluding Eriol). Her winter school uniform is a black long sleeved shirt with red and white sleeve cuffs, a white neckerchief with a red stripe, and a white pleated skirt. 
Her summer uniform is a white, half-sleeved shirt with puffed sleeves and black and white sleeve cuffs along with a red neckerchief with a black stripe and a black pleated skirt. All year round, black Mary Jane shoes are worn along with a white sailor-like hat with a black tassels. She is short to medium in height, is also charming, dainty and cute.
==Personality==
Tomoyo is the best friend of the series heroine, Sakura Kinomoto. When she discovers that Sakura has become the Cardcaptor, she insists becomes Sakura's primary assistant by designing "battle costumes" and begins providing Sakura with the various costumes she wears during her captures as well as accompanying her on missions to record the events with her video camera. (similar to another CLAMP character, Hokuto Sumeragi, who designs extravagant outfits for herself and her twin Subaru) and filming all of her magical and non-magical endeavors).
One of her major character traits is her selflessness towards Sakura. She enjoys making costumes for Sakura to wear and filming her all the time. Tomoyo faithfully keeps Sakura's new identity secret and often covers for her in times of need.
Tomoyo is very mature for her age. One of her major character traits is her selflessness towards Sakura. Tomoyo is kind, caring, sweet, highly intelligent, beautiful, meticulous, and very melodic (she has a superb singing voice and often has solos in choir recitals). She is a talented singer, and is shown performing in various school events. In the anime, her musical ability causes her to be targeted by both the Voice and Song cards. She enjoys making costumes for Sakura to wear and filming her all the time. She also sings in a club at school. 
Tomoyo can be slightly over the top at times (only where Sakura is concerned), but otherwise she is practically perfect in every way. She is depicted as being mature, kind-hearted, intelligent, and regularly speaking using more formal verb conjugations and expressions giving her a unique air of refinement than normally seen amongst elementary students. When needed, Tomoyo can exhibit considerable cunning and resourcefulness, which was most prominently displayed in the final movie (much of which revolved around a complicated scheme she had devised to give Sakura as many opportunities as possible to confess her feelings to Syaoran).
==Plot==
Tomoyo is the daughter of the president of Daidouji Toy Company, Sonomi Daidouji is the cousin of Sakura's mother Nadeshiko Kinomoto, which makes Sakura, Toya and Tomoyo second cousins. Tomoyo's father is never shown in the series and is only alluded to once, but it is apparent that he does not live in the Daidouji household. Her western-style house in Tomoeda is quite grand, with several maids serving the household. Tomoyo lives a life of wealth and is attended by a team of female bodyguards, and has access to a variety of prototype technological gadgets from her mother's company, and supplies Sakura and Kero with different communication devices throughout the series (including the cell phones she supplies to Sakura and her circle).
In the early releases of the manga, one of the artists was not aware that Tomoyo had feelings for Sakura. As a result, some scenes in the beginning chapters appear that Tomoyo with a slight crush on Sakura's brother Toya; however, according to an interview in the Cardcaptor Sakura Memorial Book, this was an error caused by one of the finishing artists not being aware that CLAMP intended subsequently seen showing Tomoyo have feelings more attention towards Sakura. In future volumes, this is clarified the story with having a scene note that Tomoyo blushed around Toya because he reminded her of Sakura. While Tomoyo is in love with Sakura, she notes that she is happy to be able to be with Sakura and does not require Sakura to love her back. Instead, she encourages Sakura's love to be in the company of Yukito Tsukishiro on many occasions, and in the second half of the series, becomes Li Syaoran's confidant and ally when he finds himself falling in love with Sakura. The familiar relationship with Sakura is removed and all dialog suggesting that she has romantic feelings for Sakura are edited to be purely platonic in nature.
