The heresy that is Cardcaptors.

Takeru:
Well, it was a long time ago when I first discovered Card Captor Sakura. It was in the form of Cardcaptors. I was pretty young, around five or six years old (can't truly remember).

My sister was becoming a short-time fan of Cardcaptors. I never really took the time to watch the show, since I was actually preoccupied with Digimon. I did, however, witness the opening, and was not at all impressed.

Five years later (A.K.A. 2005, foolish humans) I saw and finished Card Captor Sakura. Impressive work. Then soon after I saw a segment of episode one from Cardcaptors for the first time in my life, which I immediately recognized to be episode 8 from the original. What did I think?

What. The. Hell.

I personally think this is a heresy. A travesty. Nelvana, the coordinators in charge of the dub, were doing something that could very well mean the downfall of CLAMP in America. Card Captor Sakura, an amazing anime with unmeasurable amounts of character development, was turned into Cardcaptors, an emotionless dubbed anime with little of the "romantic" theme that CCS was so renowned for. Not only that, someone tried hopelessly to make Syaoran a major character. When he already was in season 3. So why does it matter now?

I was pretty mad after that. So mad that I finally got around to posting it here, only a few weeks afterwards.

What's your opinion?

(Sidenote: while I don't like the name Cardcaptors, I definitely think Nelvana did an excellent job for the show's new logo. Though it won't replace the original, it looks great anyways.)

D.J.P:
Cardcaptors is EVIL

Little Wolf:
hah! it is...  :angry:

Takeru:
For an administrator of a forum, your posts are rather short and undetailed. Hmm, maybe you require some more training?

Nah, just kidding. I usually expect more from a post than a single sentence, though. Not that you need to do that for me. ^^;; Suggestion-wise, why do you feel that Cardcaptors is evil? What kind of feeling do you get inside when you hear the word Cardcaptors? And similar.

D.J.P:
Sorry, had to leave the room.

Just that I hate what was done to CCS, in terms of cut stuff, and the removal of S+S's relationship.
