I wanted to see what you guys thought Sakura would be when she grew up.
The ending to the series left Sakura and her friends to be blessed with eternal youth. They never grow up, you never see them as adults, and the only major event that shows that they're now older is when Syaoran and Sakura both appeared in their junior high uniforms at the end of the manga. But we never really saw them as teenagers or adults outside of fanfiction.
So let's all share what we see and believe to be their future. I've come up with a few scenarios, each more unlikely as the next... but I'll only show the first one, since the second one might be a bit... politically touchy. Lots of war stuff, nothing too violent (no one dies), but it miiight be too related to current events to be allowed here. XD
So I'll just show you the most reasonable scenario: international pop-culture idol. Kinomoto Sakura, with her debut as the criminal's younger sister in the high-school production Saigo Jiken no Meitantei (which becomes a hit among indie film developers for excellent acting and great on-screen chemistry), becomes a national pop-culture icon for her cute looks and sugary sweet voice. After revealing her secret to both her friends and family, Daidouji Sonomi uses the Daidouji family fortune to fund the filming of a new movie. The screenplay, written and directed by Daidouji Tomoyo and spanned across five movies, stars Sakura as herself in a story about capturing and converting strange cards released from a mysterious magical book. No CG is used in the film, nor is a professional crew onstage, all of it being replaced with Sakura's own movie magic and her friends as the cast. The film trilogy is distributed by in-house publisher Daidouji Studios, a division of Daidouji Toys Incorporated. She becomes internationally known across the world, with critics such as Vincent Canby and Roger Ebert touting the Card Captor Sakura trilogy as having "amazing effects", "most compellingly realistic fantasy storyline", and "best actor and supporting actors". The movie industry is boosted incredibly by the box office charts, with her movie trilogy toppling blockbusters such as Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Titanic. Merchandise, including dolls, coffee mugs, and cigarette lighters, is fashioned after her likeness, and everywhere she travels she is besieged by ecscastic fans. Hideo Kojima produces an action-platforming RPG hybrid game based on the Metal Gear Solid engine that blows the sales charts. Her music gives courage, her movies bring hope, her fashion style and merchandise boosts world economy by fifty percent; she becomes the richest woman on Earth. After her retirement, she works together with Bill Gates to bring twenty African and two Asian third-world countries to healthy economic status. Her name soon becomes synonymous with legend, and she goes down in history as one of the world's greatest idols.
Hmm... I wonder if I should start writing fan-fiction.
Oh well, anyways, let your imagination soar, and have at it!! =D
