Summary: Cardcaptor Sakura!!!
Review: This is one of my favorites! "Cardcaptor Sakura The Clow"! This is what its about. A 10-year-old girl named Sakura Kinomoto who broke the seal on a magical book called "The Clow". She opened the book up, picked up the first card called "The Windy" and all of a sudden she said the word windy and poof!! All the cards shoot away! Keroberos (Guardian Of The Clow Cards) told Sakura that she had to capture all the fifty-two cards back before the world gets destroyed! Sakura did not want to at first but she has to and if she doesnt then who is going to capture them and bring the world in piece and harmoney? This includes four episodes.
1.) Sakura and the Mysterious Magic Book
2.) Sakura's Wonderful Friend
3.) Sakura's Heart-Racing First Date
4.) Sakura's Tiring Sunday
This is a cute video. This is probley in japanese but I think there the best of them all.

Summary: Cardcaptor Sakura rocks!
Review: When I got this video I was mad at first because this was in japanese and I didnt know what subtitle meant. Then when I started to watch it and started to relize that this is much better than dubbed, I started to watch it over and over. It is so funny. I like Kero, he is funny. Get this! (If you want) I am a big fan of Cardcaptor Sakura. Also, did you know that I watch it in my bedroom and act like a Cardcaptor.;) Well this is about Sakura who scatered this book of cards. So, Kero The Guardian Beast tells Sakura she had to capture fifty-two cards before they destroy the world! Sakura had to use a staff called The Clow. (I think thats what its called) Anyways, this is a nice video! Also, your children can read the english subtitle down on the bottem of the screen. This includes 1-4 videos.
1. Sakura and the Mysterious Magic Book. 2. Sakura's Wonderful Friend. 3. Sakura's Heart-Racing First Date. 4. Sakura's Tiring Sunday. Each video contains Sakura capturing a card. For the first video she captures the Fly Card with the Windy card. The second video Sakura captures the Shadow Card with the Windy card. The Third episode Sakura captures the Watery Card by going to the aquarium and going in this freezer place. (Its hard to explain) The fourth video is where Sakura captures two cards called the Wood Card and the Rain Card. Sakura uses the Watery Card to capture the Rain Card. For the Wood she doesnt use any card because it is a gentle card. Well thats all I can say. Enjoy!

Summary: Quite possibly the best animation in years
Review: I tryed to be cool and resist cardcaptor Sakura but in the end I fell in love with it and nothing would stop me from buying this DVD. That aside, CCS is quite possibly the best anime in years. The animation is livey and vibrant while the story itself is cute and simplistic. Do not be fooled by its apperence Cardcaptor sakura is much more sophisticated than it seems. Do not miss this title, I assure you it is worth every dime you pay for it.

Summary: I LOVE the Japanese version!!!
Review: I watched the dub on TV and own them on video. I didn't know about the Japanese version until very recently. But when I found that you could buy the DVD from Amazon.com, I decided to try it out. The first four episodes of the sub version were brilliant! Way better then the dub!.
My favourite characters on the sub have to be Kero-Chan and Sakura!
I love the Osaka accent of Kero-Chan which he says he has at the beginning when he comes out of the Clow Book.
Is he a male in the sub version? He sounds like a she.
The first thing I noticed about the difference between the sub and dub is that the dub had loads of scenes cut out from the sub. And the original Japanese words were changed to make it as though it sounded like a competive and a more boy like show. But the sub is really for girls!
And CCS is now one of my top favourite animes!

Summary: Far Superior Than Cardcaptors
Review: I was first exposed to matters of the Clow through the Kids-WB (Saturday morning Cardcaptors) and wasn't impressed. I felt that it was a series worth watching (which I did on a regular basis by the way) but not spend money on. That is until I ran across a few fansubbed episodes of Cardcaptor Sakura then realized that there was much more to it after all and immediately fell in love with the series. I was horrified to learn that Nelvana took a wonderful series with charming characters and a coherent story and turned it into a faint shadow of its former self.After running through the fansubs, I immediately bought a few of the Cardcaptor Sakura DVDs and over a span of a few weeks got all the rest of the DVDs that I could lay my hands on. Do yourself a favor. Get Cardcaptor Sakura and forget about that other pretender. It may only be subtitled but there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. It might even encourage your kids to better their reading skills :)

Summary: Wonderfully cute anime, Pick this up if you're a fan!!!
Review: If you're a fan of the show when it aired on KidsWB, then you'll love this undubbed, uncut, original version as it was seen in Japan. The voice actors and actresses portray these characters extremely well and Kereberos (Kero) is so kawaii, (Kawaii means cute in Japanese). The best part is that there is an option to display the English subtitles, so you can understand what the characters are saying. All in all, this is a must have for all anime fans out there.

Summary: There are such things as beautiful beginnings.
Review: It seems completely unrelated, but Cardcaptor Sakura reminds me of the famous letter that goes, "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus." There is no content in common but it's not the content that brings about the similarities - it's the refreshing innocence and joy that comes with each episode that you watch. THE CLOW is the first DVD in the series and leaves you wanting more and more. Sakura is an adorable little girl who finds herself the Cardcaptor after she accidentally releases the Clow Cards. Though she doesn't really want to at first, Sakura finds herself a good choice and gradually starts to get better at it, especially with the encouragement of her guardian, Kero-chan. When her best friend Tomoyo finds out about the secret, she gains another ally - though sometimes Tomoyo can go a bit overboard. Sakura's brother, Touya, and his best friend, Yukito, also help round out the main cast of this DVD. Sakura has a crush on Yukito, and the episode where they go to the cafe together is absolutely adorable. We also meet Sakura's father and it really becomes evident just how much Sakura loves her family and her friends as she upholds her responsibilities towards them. As Cardcaptor Sakura is shoujo, the relationships are just as important as the action and while they're easy to understand, they never fail to make you smile or even laugh. Cardcaptor Sakura has rapidly become one of my favorite animes because it makes me smile without fail. There's always something new or cute to see and it doesn't matter how many times I've seen it - it doesn't lose its charm. I fully recommend this series to anyone who likes anime and those who don't know if they do or not. It's a must see!

Summary: A Good DVD for a Great Series
Review: "Cardcaptor Sakura" is a gem! If you enjoy "kiddie" anime, or are just beginning to explore this artform, you should include this series in your collection. The storylines are interesting, involves less violence then most other types of anime, and, unlike most anime that makes it to the US, it is targeted to girls. Yes, it can get a little "Girly", but the way Sakura handles herself in the situations that she finds herself in shows that she has a lot more grit then even she is aware of. First, a look at the DVD itself. Although it is not as feature-rich as other DVDs on the market, the production and sound are clear and crisp and the menu is easy to navigate. The main menu includes three links: "Play Movie", "Scene Access", and "Extras". This is where DVD has an advantage; with the "Scene Access" menu you can go strait to a particular part of an episode and review it. Also, you can see how the wonderful original opening is subtitled from one episode to the next. In the opening to the first episode, the subtitles are a direct representation of the Japanese words to the opening song (the Japanese words are written out in English). In the opening to the second episode the words are translated to English. As an added touch, both the original opening song (without credits) and the "Kids WB"/Americanized opening song to "CardCaptors!" are in the "Extras" section, so fans can compare the two. IMPORTANT NOTE TO ENGLISH SPEAKERS: The default language for the DVD is Japanese, NOT English. To access the subtitles, you must go first to the "Extras" menu and turn "Subtitles" on. Otherwise, when you play the movie, it will be in Japanese. This volume includes the first four episodes of the series. It follows the heroine, Sakura, as her normal, everyday life is changed when she stumbles upon the mysterious book called the CLOW and accidentally releases the spirits kept within. Her destiny as a Cardcaptor is thrust upon her by the guardian of the book, Keroberous (a.k.a. "Kero"). He insists that since she released the cards, she must be the one to capture them. Sakura protests that if he hadn't been sleeping on the job, this wouldn't have happened. He avoids the subject and her fate is sealed. The strength of the series lies with how Sakura deals with (and eventually accepts) her new role and gains confidence with herself and her abilities as she captures the cards. She stumbles and makes mistakes, but she also picks herself up and learns from them. The storylines do not rely on brute force but on relationships, intelligence and understanding. A good example of this is her capture of the powerful Watery Card in the third episode. Instead of trying to overpower the strong attack card, she finds an alternative that is very clever. "Cardcaptor Sakura" is a great anime series, and this DVD will be an enjoyable addition to your collection. It proves that anime does not have to be all bloody violence, gratuitous sex and innuendo.

Summary: Forget The WB Version, These DVDs Are The One To Go For!
Review: Excellent, is all I can say. Of course I started out watching this show on Kids WB, but once I saw the uncut episodes... WOW, what a difference! The DVDs are so vivid, crisp & colorful, an enticing pastel world, unlike the US TV version. Why they changed the beautiful opening theme/sequence & replaced it with the dreary WB version is beyond me. Even the closing theme/sequence with leaping Kero is cool. I really like the "Leave It To Kero" portion at the end too (Great fan trivia). CCS is more of a "slice-of-life", each episode is like a day in the life of Sakura, whereas in the WB version, Sakura seems to spend most of her time chasing cards (assisted by Kero with a surf-dude voice... ugh) and not doing much else. If you're not a Cardcaptors fan, these DVDs will make a believer out of you. If you are a fan but haven't seen them uncut, you really owe it to yourself to check these out. I must remind you folks that this series is subtitled. So if you have a problem with that, you're out of luck. But give it a chance anyway... you won't care! An absolutely beautiful and captivating set of DVDs... RELEASE!!
