Review: Pokemon??? This has nothing to do with Pokemon unless you have the creepy show in your pop adled brain. And though the plot was a little thin at first, it is getting better. Besides, who cares? The characters are cute.

Summary: It is a good show!
Review: My mother bought the video for my 9 year old daughter. My whole family sat down to watch it and it was great! It had humor, action, drama, and a hint of romance. What more can you ask for? I will be buying more videos of The CardCaptors! I have only one complaint. In Japan they have a lot more of the shows aired. I would like to see those shows (in English). Apparently the American Market figured we would not like to have a female hero for our daughters (they are so very Wrong!). One can always hope that they will grow a brain, I guess. :)

Summary: Chopped up Version
Review: Unless you are buying this for little children, I advise going with the Uncut subtitled version. Since the Subtitled version is only a few dollars more, you don't even really save any money by getting this chopped up version, like you would for other series.

Summary: Okay but the original version is better.
Review: CardCaptors got kinda dull after I watched the Japanese version I decided not to purchase CardCaptors. I'll watch the episodes I recorded over the weekend. The original version is cute and shouldn't be rated 13Up there is no objectional material. CardCaptors is better for TV but sadly it is no longer on the air. I have the uncut version. I have taped this version off TV. CardCaptors is kind of Reptitive with out the girly themes.The editing of the original anime wasn't necessary there isn't alot of violence or same sex encounters. I like CardCaptors but it seems kind of dull compared to the Japanese version. The theme for CardCaptors is very annoying. I always mute the theme. I would recommend CardCaptors DVD volumes for very small kids and maybe CardCaptor Sakura DVDs for older kids 11 1/2Up.

Summary: One more triumph for Anime !
Review: One word-brilliance! The Cardcaptors is sheer brilliance. This awesome story with unexpected magic and stunning graphics, for an anime! I love these Animes: Sailor Moon, Tenchi Universe, Digimon, and Pokemon, but Cardcaptors rules. Sakura, Madison, Kero, Li, Meilin, even the menacing Tori are great characters! Sakura's quest for the cards is unlike any other, but I guarantee enjoyment from this series! Thank you, CLAMP and the dubbers, NELVANA! Yours Truly, An Anime Lover

Summary: The Subtitled Version is SOOOOOOOOOO much better....
Review: In any case, the animation for Cardcaptor sakura is amazing, and watching the dubbed version still gives a good glimpse of the quailty of the art. But as the storyline goes, the SUBTITLED version shows a lot more depth for each character, and is really worth seeing. In the subtitled version, you get to see the complexities in relationships and unique personalities of each person, something that you might miss if you just watch the dubbed version. HOwever, the subtitled version does have some content that might not be entirely appropriate for young viewers, and in that case, the dubbed version might be a better choice. But if u don't see the series subtitled, you're really missing out!^_^

Summary: Dubbed vs. Subbed
Review: Something tells me that I am in the minority on this, but I am someone who has seen both the original and the dubbed, and honestly I like both. Blasphemy, I'm sure many are thinking, how is that possible? Well I will tell you. Now I know that Nelvana changed quite a bit from the original, like episode three (Japan) where they changed Sakura's date with Yukito/Julian to a chance encounter where he offered to buy her some ice cream, as well as Kero telling her she didn't have adequate cards to telling her that she could only use three certain cards. Yes they changed it, but are these changes really that bad? Now I'm not trying to insult either version of the series, because like I said I enjoy both, but since the dubbed seems to be so vehemently loathed I figured that I would focus my attention on that. First of all many people don't like how Nelvana removed many of the eastern influences in the series. I don't believe that they did this because children over here can't understand it or what not, I think they did it so that they could relate to it more. As for the character changes, I don't think that they butchered them as much as people say. I mean they did make Li a bit more attitude towards Sakura, but it wasn't like he was completely nice to her to begin with. As for Sakura, some people claim that they made her more of a whiner, quite frankly I think that she whines in both. So all I'm saying is that while they did change it slightly, they did not give the series a complete 180 like some people like to make it sound. Yes there are differences, but that doesn't mean that they are all bad, in fact I think that the dubbed even improved a few aspects. I don't know why, but the majority of subbed fans of Cardcaptor Sakura, seem to think that any change is bad. So in short what I'm trying to say is that both the subbed and the dubbed are well worth watching, despite their differences.

Summary: People get a life it's just a cartoon!
Review: Get a life this is a great show. It's not that different from the original. In fact this version is better. No objectional material just a clean version of anime! What's wrong with clean anime. I'm quite the conservative anime fan. I also recommend all the Dubbed and Edited Sailor Moon Movies and episodes. I'm trying to reach pioneer. Does anyone have the address. People just get a grip the censoring is completely understandable. CardCaptors or CardCaptor Sakura, what's the difference. Except changes to save face and introduce us to quality entertainment!

Summary: Card Captors verse Cardcaptor Sakura
Review: First of all I was reading the reviews from the other people who have seen the show, and think they are being unjust to the WB version. I have seen both the cut and the uncut version of the show, and like them both. Even though I do think you lose alot when you dub a show, this still has the charm of the orginal version. But back to what I was trying to get across, have to remember the audience that the show is geared to, young girls. Japan has a more open society so stuff that wouldn't be appropriate for our children is appropriate for theirs. The reason I like anime so much is because of the stories and the animation. This series is no exception. If you are buying the series for your 10 year daughter or son then I would go with the WB version but if you like me who a sorphmore in college and can handle what going on in the series, then by all means get the subtitle one.

Summary: How to watch episodes NEVER SHOWN ON N. AMERICAN TV!
Review: I have to assume that anyone interested in this DVD is primarily familiar with this series through the dubbed version shown on Kid's WB and Teletoon, entitled "Cardcaptors". What you may not realize is that this DVD does NOT contain the same episodes as the concurrently released subtitled version of this show, entitled "Cardcaptor Sakura". The first two DVDs of "Cardcaptors" contain episodes 8, 12, 17; and 13, 9, and 20, respectively. The first two DVDs of "Cardcaptor Sakura", on the other hand, contain episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, 6, 7, and 8. So if you really love "Cardcaptors", you should also buy the first two volumes of the subtitled version, since they contain *different episodes* from the dub release. In addition, episodes 1-7 that appear on the first two subtitled DVDs have NEVER been and never will be shown on N. American TV. Nor will they ever be released on the dubbed versions of the DVDs, as they were never dubbed. I would like to address a couple of fallacys I have noted in other reviews:
Fallacy #1: "There is no subtitled version available." This is NOT TRUE. Search on the words "Cardcaptor Sakura" and the subtitled version will show up.
Fallacy #2: "The dub is cheaper than the subtitled version." Again, NOT TRUE! The dubbed DVD is $21.49, while the subtitled version is $25.49. HOWEVER, the dubbed version only contains 3 episodes, while the subtitled version contains 4! If you do the math, you will find that *the subtitled version is actually CHEAPER on a per episode basis!* If you are contemplating buying the dubbed version, you owe it to yourself to watch the subtitled version first. You'll get to see the original episodes, in order, as they were meant to be seen. And if you still prefer the dub after seeing the first 8 episodes in Japanese, you can get the dub without worrying about duplicating any episodes (except #8), since the first two DVDs of Cardcaptor Sakura contain episodes that have not been and will not be released dubbed.
