The heresy that is Cardcaptors.

Also, I think I mentioned this a couple of times, but, the Americans, are biased in terms of anime works. If it's made in there country, with sex scenes, I betch you they'd play it. However, I really didn't see the problem with CCS in terms of homosexualtiy and stuff. I mean, what kid who'd look into those things, it's all about the entertainment, and enjoying it, something I didn't have when I watched CC.
I think Nelvana took their 'good intentions' a little to far. They edited out all the emotions, and feelings, that are vital to the plot. You see, when they do that, I notice something is missing, in way you could say the show wasn't complete.
Okay, I'm rambling, but yeah, I hope I explained it good, and the stuff you wrote was intresting, and I bet alot of people will read it ^_-

By eliminating the emotional scenes... Nelvana actually destroyed the major theme of CLAMP... Remember the catastrophe for letting loose Clow Cards is for people to forget the feelings they have for others? Taking out that theme, it's a scary thought...
Nelvana created a series- long extension of Sakura's worst nightmare- a loveless world...
fisah:
The very thing CLAMP wanted to get across *shakes head*
The whole show was about feelings, why can't Nelvana see that?!! They shouldn't have touched this show. I noticed some dubs weren't as bad as CC though, it's surprising how they could actually air that stuff o.0
Miss Jenni-Maie:
Apparently, emotions of any kind will rape and destroy the minds of the youngins.
Oh. And trigger the apocolypse.
Takeru:
If they knew this show was so "inappropriate", why wouldn't they have left it to someone who would have put it on Toonami instead? I mean Toonami has revealing, bloody, emotional shows. CCS is too happy-go-lucky to be on Adult Swim, so I wouldn't recommend that.
Hira:
Yeah, well... 2005 is when Americans begin to let certain things go when airing anime for kids... Remember that there weren't much anime on air 5-6 years ago... There was only Pokemon, which probably gave them the concept that all animes are the same and tried to make Cardcaptor a show about competitions and battles rather than the emotional themes...
But, watching anime right now, I think America is more open... *sigh*... Card Captor Sakura was just translated and aired at the wrong time...
