One of my most priced pieces in my collection, the UK Blu-Ray set of Cardcaptor Sakura, as well as the two movies. I was able to get this from Amazon U.S. two years ago, when a few of them had been imported.

At the time, it cost me around $115.00, and with shipping and tax, the total went up to over $120. Still, quite a good deal, especially compared to how much it goes for now, which is around $514.59.

The movies were cheaper, but still a bit pricey, with the first film costing around $29.95, and second film costing $34.95.

All in all, though, I'm quite happy to own them and wouldn't have it any other way.

Let me know what you think?

I'd imagined what the story of the Clow Cards might've looked like as a title for an Indiana Jones movie. What do you think?

This is a video comprising of some of the promos for Cardcaptors when it aired on Toonami back in June, 2001. The video is from a now deleted YouTube account. Oh, and unlike most of the Kids WB promos, Toonami's actually focus on Sakura being the lead and not Li, which makes them a step up, imo. I don't remember ever seeing these promos on Toonami back in the day, but if I did, and with Peter Cullen (R.I.P.) narrating them, I might've been interested in watching the series at the time.

Side note: Speaking of Peter Cullen, I've always thought it was a missed opportunity when they didn't get him back to do promos for Toonami Rewind a few years ago. That would've been the icing on the cake for that block, on top of seeing Sailor Moon uncut for the first time.

We'll miss you, Peter.

I'm back with another comparison (two, in fact. the next will be after this one). This time it's a comparison between Kero's introduction in the original version of the first episode, "Sakura and a Mysterious Book," and the American version, "One Fateful Day." Some of the major differences are that the American version cuts out some of the Anime expressions on the character's faces, and that Kerro explains why he as an Osaka accent. Some of this was due to Nelvana and Kids WB wanting to make the series look more American, as most cartoons in the U.S. at the time didn't have that type of material.

Oh, and of course, Kero now sounds so full of 90s cool dude dialogue. It doesn't fit his character, but I'd be lying if I didn't find it funny.

A little trivia about that: Kero's voice actor in the American dub, Matt Hill, was also the voice of Ed from "Ed, Edd n Eddy."

Enjoy and let me know what you think?

Here is a compilation of all the Cardcaptors Kids WB promos I could find. I've also decided to put them in chronological order based on how the series aired in North America. The promos do have a nostalgic charm in how Kids WB would make their advertisements (I didn't see Cardcaptors at the time, but I do remember how stuff like Batman Beyond would be advertised), but they really didn't understand how Cardcaptor Sakura worked. The promos start out advertising Lee at the lead, then shift toward Sakura half-way through the run (as they should've in the first place). Let me know what you guys think.

This is an edit I made comparing a scene from episode 2 of Carrdcaptor Sakura, "Sakura's Wonderful Friend," to its Cardcaptors counterpart, "Partners in Crime." The video starts with the Cardcaptors version first because it makes the differences between the two more surprising, imo. Let me know what you guys think and if you'd like me to post more comparisions.

I managed to purchase all nine volumes in a bundle nearly a year ago for over $100.00. Volumes 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 were DVD. Volumes 2, 3, and 9 were VHS. As a result of this, I had to purchase the DVDs of those volumes on separate orders. Still, quite a deal.
