Summary: Clamp as it is
Review: Okay this is a great DVD it gives the real translation and they didn't hack up the show for American TV here. The dubbed version was so bad they chopped of a bunch of the first episodes so you never even saw when she opened the book. Pioneer is wonderful and I was thrilled to see the theme song intact. The catch you catch me song is sooooo kawaii. The show is cheery and adorable with great animation based on the manga by clamp who wrote and drew X/1999 and Rayearth. Both of those were good too but don't bother with the Rayearth TV episodes.

Summary: See CLAMP's masterpiece the way it was meant to be
Review: Forget the dub...this is the way CLAMP would have intended American viewers to see it. Volume one begins when Sakura opens the book of the Clow and is told that she is the one who must recapture all 52 Tarot-like cards. This series is mostly focused on her, unlike the dub. Later on, Li (which is his last name, not his first!) and Meling are introduced. This also doesn't cut out the complex web of crushes that the dub does. A definite plus for young girls, but definitely can be enjoyed be all ages.

Summary: A Charming Story With Charming Characters
Review: This Cardcaptor Sakura DVD is not to be confused with the North American release by Nelvana. This DVD is in Japanese with English subtitles and is presented exactly as it appears in Japan along with the catchy music and the finer nuances of dialogue. I have three sons aged 3 to 7 years and my oldest is able to read the subtitles for the enjoyment of the rest. A side benefit is that they are learning some of the Japanese vocabulary. This DVD contains episodes and scenes not available in the Nelvana release along with the American version of the opening credits. Though this DVD *will* operate in all standard DVD players, be aware that it may not operate in your computer's DVD ROM drive. I have access to several computer DVD ROM drives both PC and Macintosh and this DVD does not play in all of them.

Summary: Go subtittled
Review: I highly recomend you get the subtittled version of this excellent shoju anime. anime is really best viewed in its original form. I saw the kids WB version and my stomach turned with digust. They got rid of the quirky little jappannese customs, that add character to the tv show in addition to adding voices that are best reffered to as an atrocity that has only been excelled by the dub of sailormoon. I feel sorry for the kids that will watch the WB version and hope this subtittled version shows how much better the original is

Summary: no comparision to the REAL thing
Review: I must say that nothing beats the real thing when it comes to anime. If you've been watching horrifically edited and altered version of Card Captor Sakura that's broadcasted in the U.S. (even the title's edited to Cardcaptors), or if you're just looking for that next anime title to fill you're growing collection, the UN-altered, UN-edited, UN-Americanized version is something that you shouldn't pass up.With this DVD American audiences and anime fans finally get to see the real program that so many in Japan fell in love with. All the humor and lightheartedness that the edited-Cardcaptors took out is back, including the small end segment "Leave It To Kero-chan!" And of course, Sakura's usual task of helping Kero-chan retrieve all of the missing Clow Cards is there for your enjoyment. The only real problem with this DVD is that it includes the, well I'll be kind, crappy Cardcaptors intro and song. But not to worry, it's safely stowed away in the EXTRAS section of the DVD, so if you want to watch the original intro, you'll see it everytime you start a new episode. Why do I say that people watching Cardcaptors in the U.S. should get this DVD instead of the dubbed version (that's right! Only the subtitled version with the Japanese track is on this DVD! *smile*)? Because with the dubbed version you don't see the original work, the one that was so popular in Japan. What you see instead is a heavily edited and Americanized version that basically tries to take every element of Japanese society out of it. While this reigns true for nearly every dubbed anime title out there, Cardcaptors is by far one of the most prominent examples of this. And why should you die-hard anime fans get it? Well, it's just a really good series that, while yes it is designed for kids, can appeal to nearly everyone if they just sit down and watch it. By just watching the first four episodes contained on this DVD one can see just why this series was so successful in Japan and how enjoyable it actually is. And if you're already a fan of Cardcaptors? Hey, nothing beats the REAL thing.

Summary: Da best in da world
Review: This is arguably one of the best shows in the world. Even Best Anime (www.bestanime.com) has this, Card Captor Sakura as #1 on the Top 100. Now I saw a 5 star review in the really sad English dub version, and I'm thinking... Is that person drunk??? How can anyone say that butchered anime that was aired on tv a million times be 5 star?????

Summary: A Real Disappointment for the Japanese Fans of CC Sakura
Review: Sure this video shows the first episodes, but its not the same Cardcaptor Sakura that they edited and cut up over a million times! The voices are okay, i'd have to admit that, but they've changed the character personalities, and to boot it all up, they've also changed how a few of the episodes go. The episodes are shown OUT OF ORDER! Still, I'd have to say that if you're just starting out, this is recommended (considering that you may or may not understand Japanese^_^) , but remember, this is not the same Cardcaptor Sakura that is it supposed to be... Cherry Fields--My own Cardcaptors site. Get some more information on the series here if you're starting.

Summary: Sakura in Wonderland
Review: The Cardcaptor Sakura series (it will soon be unnecessary to explain) is one of the finest children's stories in any artistic medium. An artistic achievement on the level of other great stories such as the Harry Potter novels, it approaches the quality of Lewis Carroll's Alice books, which they strongly resemble. It combines a keen understanding of child psychology, a dense plot that operates (like Alice) on both literal and symbolic levels, beautiful animation, and a lively sense of humor. Young children will identify with the plucky main character, Sakura, and be enchanted by the irrepressible Kero-chan, the flying teddy bear who guides her through the magical world to which she is drawn. They may need some time to get used to a Japanese-language version with subtitling, but the vitality of the voice acting and the luminous music make it far superior to the frequently incoherent dubbed version shown on the WB Network. Those 14 and up (including parents) will find Cardcaptor Sakura by turns amusing, entertaining, compelling, and at times even frightening. Sakura's magical adventures are played out against a realistic background of a single-parent family situation. It frequently references real fears, and there is a dark undercurrent to many of the episodes (like many in Alice in Wonderland) that makes them gripping even for a 50-something viewer. Pioneer is also to be commended for providing an economical four episodes per tape. This is important, as most viewers who buy this first volume will certainly want those that follow.

Summary: Cardcaptor Sakura, one cute story!
Review: Cardcaptor Sakura is gonna be out on DVD really soon, so pre-order it! It's the best anime, so don't miss out! Okay, since I like Cardcaptors(which mostly everyone hates), I'll tell you the stuff people usually say about Cardcaptors and Cardcaptor Sakura. Remember, don't BE offended by it, 'cause it's the truth! Cardcaptors, changed the song, because Nelvana or whatever, thought the song,'Catch You, Catch Me' song was too cute for boys since Cardcaptors, is a girls and boys show. Really, Cardcaptor Sakura was a shoujo anime, but we still l-o-v-e, LOVE it! Second, there was NO reason why Kids WB! had to show the eighth episode, starring Li Syaoran(Showron). Stupid Nelvana(sorry, I had to say that)! So get Cardcaptor Sakura, and you'll see how much better it is(really, I wasn't going for my side)!
