1st EP. You meet all of Sakura's family including the boy she has a crush on Yukito and her best friend Tomoyo. Then she goes home from Cheerleading practice I beleive and she hears something in her dads study and she goes down to see then she sees a mysteriouse book glowing and she picks it up. "The Clow" is its title. She opens it too see cards and she picks it up and reads the name. " . . .WINDY" and allof a sudden all the cards fly out and Keroberos emerges from the cover. EEKKK!!!!!!! freaky! Know Keroberos tells Sakura about the Clow cards and that she MUST become a CardCaptor and get the cards back. WHAT THE FLY CARD Sakuras first challenge. Will she succed or no . . .
2nd Ep. This episode is mostly on how close Sakura and Tomoyo are as friends. And she finds out that Sakura is a CardCaptor and at lunch Kero lets Sakura show Tomoyo her Magic.

Summary: Cutest anime in exsistence!
Review: Title says it all!
Yes,i am ashamed to say i was one of those brainwashed people who thought the sub and dub were the same thing.In fact,i heard of Cardcaptor Sakura shortly after 'Cardcaptors',the butchered dub of CCS,was aired.Soon,i started to find out all i could of the sub.I decided to order this video to see if it was as good as everyone said it was.And,that was one of the best decisions i've ever made.(Yes,i AM that obsessed `-___-;;;;;)I recomend Cardcaptor Sakura to ANY anime fan.I guarantee you will not regret your decision in ordering this video.
This video consists of the first 4 CCS episodes:
1)Sakura and the Mysterious Book
2)Sakura's Wonderful Friend
3)Sakura's heart-Racing First Date
4)Sakura's Tiring Sunday
If you are a fan of the dub,i'm SURE you will like the sub even more.
The only problem would probably be if you don't like reading your anime(The show is in Chinese *well,DUH* and though i can understand most of it,people will probably NOT understand it,because you're probably new to Chinese?)But,a little kid can learn to read while watching this wonderful anime!And,if you're used to watching fansubs,and are used to reading your anime,you really haven't got a problem ^^;;;;;
So,i repeat,i recomend this video for anyone.
So sit back and enjoy!^^;;;
HON NA NA!!!^_^

Summary: Stupendious, Fantastic, Awesome...And It's good too :)
Review: Cardcaptor Sakura is, without a doubt, one of the best Anime shows on the U.S. market today. It involves a 10-year old girl named Sakura who just happened to open a mysterious magical book containg powerful objects known as Clow Cards. With the help of that totally cool, flying dude known as Kero she becomes the Cardcaptor so that she can capture all the Clow Cards. One of the many things I like about this series is that Sakura doesn't instantly know everything about being a Cardcaptor. She actually 'learns more' as the series progresses. Thanks to Sakura's curiosity we have a splendid Anime show that deserves a perfect 10. If you don't mind the Japanese voices with the English subtitles and you are a fan of Anime then this is definetley the show to get :)

Summary: Great video
Review: This video starts the Card Captors saga, and it does it very well. The characters are well-drawn, and interesting. There are a few very funny moments, and a lot of jokes that might just get a smile. It is in Japanese, with English subtitles, which might discourage some people who don't want to read their movies, but at least the lips match. :P Besides, maybe a younger child will be able to practice reading while watching a great video.

Summary: THE DUB IS BAD
Review: Umm, I haven't actually seen the Japanese version, although I'm dying to, but I live in the UK, which is worse than Iran (no joke) for movie releases, and even worse for anime releases. The 2nd series of the dub is being aired on UK TV now-I love the series, but I'll love the Jap dub even more, if the tales of butchery are true. HERE'S MY COMPLAINT- THE THEME SONG IN THE SECOND SERIES HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A DANCE TRACK, WITH SOME IDIOT SAYING "OOH -LA LA". DIE NELVANA, DIE!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Night and Day...
Review: This is the anime that shows why there are so many anime fans.
The animation, the artwork, and the storys told in the best animes always go beyond what passes for entertainment here in the states, and this one shows just how bad some of the translations to american can be. This series is known as "cardcaptors" here in the states, and after having seen the japanese originals, and can say that this one was literally BUTCHERED during the translation. In episode one for instance, you see scenes that appeared in later episodes of the american version, and it's now obvious to me that the very heart and soul of this great anime was gutted in favor of trying to 'boyify' it. Since the show is about a little girl and mainly follows her exploits, the powers that be that tried to translate this show saw fit to re-edit the entire series, taking bits from totally unrelated episodes and making an almost unrecognisable mess. I had watched the nelvana american version and most of the time I was totally bored with, but someone suggested that I get the original series, and I am surprised at how much more fun it is to watch. From the japanese 'wild takes' (with the tradmark sweat and curly Q eyes), to the music and artwork, as well as a much richer and deeper story, (not to mention longer). If you are now just getting into Cardcaptors, chances are you are getting intersted in this version, and you will not go wrong getting it. Also you can use it to show those friends you have that just don't get it.

Summary: This is nothing like CardCaptors
Review: Konyanyachiwa! I finally got around to buying this video and I'm really glad I did. I love CardCaptor Sakura! If you're thinking this is exactly like the dumb english dub CardCaptors you're wrong! This is way better than CardCaptors ever was. On this video there are 4 episodes, they are called, Sakura and the Mysterious Magic Book, Sakura's Wonderful Friend, Sakura's Heart-Racing First Date and Sakura's Tiring Sunday. Did you notice that all 4 episode titles began with Sakura's name? In fact, I'm almost sure every episode begins with the word Sakura. I like Catch You, Catch Me (The opening theme.) and Groovy (The ending theme.) even more than I did the first time I heard them. The background music is also really great too. I am not at all disappointed, CardCaptor Sakura is just as good everyone said it was. I haven't seen much of CardCaptor Sakura or, many other animes but, CardCaptor Sakura is definitely one of my favorites! My favorite character so far is Sakura but, I really like Kero-chan too. You should buy this if you want to find out what CardCaptor Sakura is truly like and it's way better than CardCaptors, believe me. And if you are a fan of the dub, once you watch this you'll probably never want to watch the dub again. I really liked this video and I can hardly wait to buy the next one! Konnana!

Summary: The original is the best.
Review: Previous reviews have mentioned how badly edited the american
version"CardCaptors" is.It's all true.The first 7 episodes have been left out and the editing may as well have been done with a chainsaw.Admittedly,some content had to be left out(Sakura's friend Tomoyo(Madison)has a crush on her,and one of Sakura's classmates,Rika(Rita)has a crush on their homeroom teacher Mr
Terada.).Regardless,the original is worth the price to see the series in it's unadultered form.

Summary: CLAMP has outdone themselves again!
Review: One of my favorite things about mahou shoujo is the consistent attention to the feelings and issues around children and emphasis on friendships. In CCS there is no exception and in the tales about Sakura, a typical 10-year old, these wonderful themes are presented in spades. Sakura discovers a magical tome in her father's downstairs study she unknowingly releases all the clow cards, except one. What follows afterwards, and throughout the series, is the adventure to return all the Clow cards, which are powerful magical entities, back to the Clow book. Sakura learns a great deal in these--and all upcoming--adventures and experiences, and, as with most anime, the human equations are very well expressed. This is definitely an anime worth adding to your collection.

Summary: Make an appointment with your Dentist before viewing
Review: This series is so sweet, it will give you cavities. Although supposedly aimed at a pre-teen audience, this series is a superior example of anime art, and the story can be enjoyed by all ages as it is not "dumbed down" as many children's stories and films are. The story begins as a cute 10 year old girl, Sakura, accidently opens a magic book and scatters the cards inside. As she struggles to recover the cards one at a time, she learns she has the potential to develop magical powers. However, she is not confident in her abilities and wants to be nothing more than a normal little kid, but she cannot avoid the responsibilities that are thrust upon her. It should be mentioned that there are some implied adult themes in the series. Li, Sakura's male rival card captor, seems to have a serious crush on Sakura's older boy friend. Tomoyo, Sakura's classmate, has what can only be a fetish for dressing Sakura up and them filming her. These and other implied same-sex relationships will fly over the head of most kids, and are played up mainly for humor. The best part of this series is that Sakura grows and learns and experinences the full range of human emotions along the way, unlike most comic characters who learn nothing or fail to change from one episode to the next. Cardcaptor Sakura is the best series to come along since the original Tenchi Muyo OVAs! And now a warning - if you like good anime, avoid the Cardcaptors series of videos except if you want to compare them with the originals. They are so badly edited and changed to "make them acceptable to an American audience" that they are painful to see. This series shows the episodes completely out of order and any trace of emotion on the part of Sakura except anger or excitement has been removed. Since you don't get to see her grow into her role of a Card Captor, she comes across as a know-it-all and a brat with no redeeming qualities. The editors were concerned about the implied relationships in the original, so they edited out some (but not all) of the dicey bits. They managed to turn an exceptional anime series into just another mediocre Saturday Morning kid's cartoon. Do your kids a favor and switch to Card Captor Sakura and give the "Cardcaptors" series a miss.
