The reason why it's got that treatment, they try to make it a "boy" anime which it can't be. Demographics can be a bad thing sometimes.

no, they tried to make it into an 'action only' story which CCS isn't (its a Love Story :) )

AiKo - A case of bad timing. CCS should have been released around 2002+ now that the influence of anime is more present in the US.

nice explanation ^^ and even if it was released later they still would of cut out some of the blushyness amongst the guys and toned the sakura-tomoyo relationship down

That can be true.

Still though, the difficulty of the anime itself makes it hard to be dubbed.

True. The timing was just way off. Add the dubber voices to the equation and yikes.

they did kinda learn with the 2nd movie dubs tho, but still in that movie i hated Li's voice, its just whenever i saw Syaoran talking i just thought, "oh my god, Izzy (from Digimon) is in Li's Body" o.O

The reason they cut so much out of Cardcaptor Sakura wasn't because they were making it into an action anime...they just wanted to make it suitable for both boys and girls. That's why the american version opened up with the 'Sakura's Rival' episode - Nelvana wanted to introduce a strong male character (Li) right away, so that it would interest male viwers as well as female.

That's also the reason why some episodes are out of sequence.

What about Eriol morphing into the Black Ranger? ><
When her leathery, crow-footed face turned towards my raised hand and said, “Yes, the boy in the Sailor Mercury t-shirt,” I sprung into action. It took me a brief 20 seconds to acquire the bokken (wooden sword) I had secured to the underside of our chairs with duct tape the night previous. Shouting “Japan BANZAIII!” in the manner of those noble kamikaze pilots from the War of United States Aggression (so tactlessly referred to in your history books as “World War II”), I charged the stage, bringing down the bokken forcefully onto the plywood table in front of Tiffany Grant. It was a tragic mistake not to channel my ki correctly. The bokken splintered into a thousand pieces, leaving me with no other plan of attack besides shouting, “You’re no Asuka!” as two Ohayocon toughs escorted me out of the room-SomethingAwful.com

I agree with you about the whole making it suitable for both genders. I though Li was a strong character in the original series as well, maybe the way the japanese protrayed him was different from the american protraying (i.e. syaoran and yukito). However, making something into what it isn't just makes the whole thing 'bleh'. That's just my opinion.

Anyway, any opinions on the Character Names?

Some are okay, some are... can't describe.

I think I've mentioned somewhere around here....but don't mind to mention it again....
First of all,

Madison is terrible....Tomoyo's originally name was so much better...Madison sounds totally ridiculous for her...and just entirely different.....
Sakura Avalon....the problem is her surname...it sounds totally weird...like Sakura belongs to some family that knows magic....just weird....and then her father changed the name to Aiden???? It was Even more weird.
Showron...was just oh god...totally annoys me.....what's wrong with Syaoran Li???? Is this name SO hard to read?? lol. I think Syaoran's name was changed in various countries...like Shaolan, Showron, Syaolan....dadada....gah confused.
Yet, the worse of all the names was Eli Moon...it was HORRIBLE. TERRIBLE. Okay so maybe Nelvana was trying to make Eriol sound more 'powerful' like...but i hate that change of name the most...of course i don't like the rest.

You mean like Julian (Yukito), Chelsea (Chiharu). I forgot the others.

What are the other changes in the scripts?

loads...even though i haven't exactly watched the US dubbed version of Card Captors...it was popular for changing the whole CCS plot upside down....first of all, the first epsiode was 'Sakura's rival'( the appearance of Syaoran)....i think if i can recall checking out the epsiode lists in some websites...it is like in some kind of a flashback form....it was pretty dang confusing for ppl who were expecting the CCS plot. Moreover, there was NO romance between S+S....nada. Tomoyo and Sakura acted like valley gurls, especially Tomoyo who sounded absolutely snobbish. And all the epsiodes were just mixed up into something that was plain scary. I think this whole dubbed might only be good for laughs.
