CLAMP's Famous Works > Cardcaptor Sakura

A Great Article About the Worst Travesty in Anime

<< < (2/3) > >>

Lexi:
Thank you both for the analytical posts, Cardcaptor Takato and Adarian. *A cookie for each :)*

Although I didn't watch CC first and then discover CCS (thanks to my parents not having cable at that time and my best friend being the great manipulative friend she is :keke:), I can understand that CC played a vital role in bringing many of us CCS fans together :wink:    I admit that despite CC being a poor excuse of a dub of a wonderful anime, it showed fans that such an anime existed and eventually through the internet, that its original is CCS. Thus, CC indirectly helped fans find out about the beautiful world of CCS :D

*stretches* Now we, the fans, can hate Nelvana and love CCS all we want :tongue3:

And that's how I found out about CCS, and here's one better. It's how I found this forum! If it weren't for the dubbing, I would've never gone on the internet about it, and I wouldn't even know what anime even was! The horror! And I wouldn't have met all these wonderful people! I love this place, and everybody in it! Daiski minna-san!

Robin Sena:
Somehow, like in my dicussions about this.

It ends up 2 ways.

1) They discovered CCS

2) Went on to hate CCS for life

Adarian:
Thanks for the cookies and great posts, guys.

 And I guess I should be grateful after all for Cardcaptors, because I know that  I would have never met alot of great fans like you, moezy-chan, and alot of others, but I just have this grudge against it. I mean I oddly enough might have been in the CCS bandwagon several years ago if not for Cardcaptors. I had initially foudn out about CCS in late 1999 when I just getting into anime and had a friend who told me about several of the best animes currently in Japan. Just starting to get into anime back then, he recommended that I get Cardcaptor Sakura, but seeing as though it was only in Japanese with subtitles, I was lazy back then, and really only wanted an English dub, so I kind of forgot about it. The next year, Cardcaptors came on Kids WB, and I thought it was same thing as CCS, so I watched it, and I really wasn't impressed at all. It seemed almost like a Pokemon clone after each episode showed the same repetitive card of the day theme. So after the first season was over, I lost interest and stopped watching it, and considered the Cardcaptors hype all a big disappointment. But I went on watching other anime, mostly mindless Toonami anime like Ronin Warriors and Gundam Wing at the time, but of course, they were getting old, and after a few years, I pretty much lost all interest in anime. I think I went about 3 years without watching a single minute of anime. It wasn't until late last year that I somehow came across an article about Cardcaptor Sakura, which explained how the American dub Cardcaptors did it no justice. I thought it was interesting, and remembered that I did like anime alot at one time, so I thought I should give it another shot. With the original releases of the original uncut CCS DVDs now available in America, I decided to order the first volume, and it was that moment on, I realized what I had really been missing. CCS got me back into anime, and the 1750 minutes I spent the series was some of the most enjoyable minutes I've had in a while, but I still wish I had watched it when I was younger. If only I had watched CCS before CC!!! ...... lol.
