I luv this show. I have the complete anime and manga sets..... Yue is so cool, so is Ruby Moon! But all the frilly pink dresses scare me sometimes..... :blink:

I love CardCaptors! Kero is so cute! I have manga 1 and 2 and used to watch it all the time. Untill it got canceled... ::sniff sniff:: Did you know that the toys they had at Burger King got aborted because they supported wicca?

:( I don't understand why they cancled the show??

Supported wicca my ass. It's just a show. Why can't people get a sense of humour?

I dunno why it got cancelled either. We used to get it on Teletoon, although I didn't watch it. Now it doesn't seem to be on anymore. Probably due to unpopularity issues. (They show so much crap on Teletoon that the good stuff gets ignored, you see.)

What the heck is Teletoon? I've never heard of it before? Is it on Cartoon Network? :huh:

It's a show we get in Quebec. It's not part of Cartoon Network at all, at least not to my knowledge. We get in English and in French.

Quebec? Hmmm. I've never heard of that either. :huh: What's your race?

Quebec is a province in Canada. It's the biggest province, though not the biggest territory, and its official language is French. I live in Montreal, in which you can technically live without having to speak more than a few words of French.

My mother is French-Canadian and has traced her ancestry back to the first French colonists who arrived in Canada from France. My Dad is English-Canadian. I've got a bit of Irish blood from my great great grandmother's side. Where I live, my ancestry is almost totally uninteresting.

When I was changing for gym class one day in seventh grade, a girl next to me asked me if I was an American Indian. But I just tan well.

Whew! I thought you were halfway around the country. I have a lot of pen pals in the middle of Europe. They're all great friends! :) Hey!! How about me and you becoming pen pals? It'll be fun! :D

Canada is in North America, sweetheart. It's just north of the USA.

>_<

Um, "sweetheart"? You sound like my mom. j/k

Do you mean you're just above Washington? If you are, maybe I can visit you. :) It'll make me verry happy!

How come your personality changes a lot? I just noticed that. Boy, am I slow. <_<

It's over six hours away by car. I suppose you could say that Montreal is just above Washington D.C. on a world map, if by 'just above' you mean 'diagonally a fair, but not insurmountable distance'.

I'm sorry about the change in personality. It's a Canadian thing. Most of us are super-aware of the geographical position of Canada with respect to the rest of the world in general and with respect to the United States in particular. (Then again, Canada *is* the second largest country in the world. On a map it's kind of hard to miss.)

Canada is the second largest country in the world? I didn't know that. :huh: Wow, Mishi! You're probably lucky to be in Canada!! (there's high prices there though) :unsure:

There's a wierd kind of nationalism. We take pride in not taking pride in our country. I don't know if that makes sense or not.

Heheh. It doesn't. I sorta understand what it means, just not quite.

I tell you, it's sort of weird hearing Sakura call Meiling 'Stephanie' of all things. Li Syaoran is 'Lionnel' and Tomoyo/Madison is... I can't remember her name. At least Sakura and Kero's names are the same. And they pronounce Kero's name a bit better.

I swear, it's only a matter of time until someone decides that Michelle is a good name for an anime character... No wait, that already happened. Sailor Neptune *muttermuttermutter* Not my fault Michiru sounds a lot like Michelle...

Did you know Michelle is actually my name?

I have only 3 DVD's of Cardcaptors. <_< Stinks, huh?

Tch. Better than me. I have none.

They canceled it because 'CardCaptors' was an abomination against nature and everyone knew it.

Now Card Captor Sakura, that's a good show.

CLAMP rarely creates bad stuff... Although there are exceptions.

OMG, I love CardCaptor Sakura!
it's the cutest thing I've ever seen
I really wish I had clothes like her

Do you?

I for one would be mortified to walk out in the streets with something that pink and frilly. But I have a reputation to uphold. :P

I dressed as her for NDK 2004.

See?!

So cute! :ph43r:

AMEN!
Card Captors is the only Clamp title I've yet seen or read that I have not liked.

My personal hatred for Card Captors stem mainly from two things:
1) When they first started showing it they played it out of order (episode 1, then episode 3, then episode 2, then episode 6, etc.). I found this really annoying, not too mention the fact that it made it incredibly hard too follow.

2) The absolute extent in which Syaoran got shafted made me want to vomit. I mean, the guy spent his entire childhood training in preparation for this, and then suddenly this girl who can barely fend for herself comes out of friggin nowhere and pretty much robs of his mission in life. It seriously made it difficult for me to get behind Sakura as a Heroine when I was rooting for Lee to just kill her and be done with it half the time. He did catch THE Most Bad Ass card of the bunch (The Time Card) but that's small consolation for his shattered dreams. And before you all let into me, yes I know it's supposed to be a "girl power" show, and I understand what all that entails, but I still think they went a little too far with how they handled that one.
I have heard that he gets his due respects in the movies, but the series pretty much ruined any interest I had in seeing them. And even though it technically isn't the "same" character, Syaoran IS getting his due respect as the main character of Tsubasa: Resevoir Chronicles.

CCS has been my club's persistent showing for last semester and this one and some of the guys are beginning to question how on earth it happened because our club is about 65/35 percent male/female most of the time. But I'm happy to have it as persistent showing; I love CCS. (Not Cardcaptors, that is pure blasphemy and I laugh when I see copies of it at the store.) I have a lot of CCS, including the second movie, two artbooks, and all the manga.

I think one of my favorite things about the story is how relationships keep changing in it. In club, we're about three episodes into the Sakura Card arc at the part where Li-kun is still terribly confused about his feelings towards Sakura when he still feels kinda funny around Yukito. Answer: (spoiler for some people?)






Yukito is Yue's disguise form. We now return you to your regularly scheduled post.

So anyway, it's so cute how Li-kun will turn various shades of red if Sakura even looks in his direction. And heck, she hardly has to do that now; if he thinks about her, he gets little blush lines! Kawaiii! And Tomoyo teases him about it like crazy; well, not teasing, but you know. I actually think Tomoyo is a bit manipulative and if she wasn't so bleeding nice she could be terribly scary. She's already scary with her Sakura obsession as is.

Hah, like we all didn't know that before.

Okay, just finished re-reading the CCS manga (both arcs) this morning; took me about two weeks due to other things like job-hunting and watching TV. I still can't help squealing and getting all warm and fuzzy when Syaoran always gets all blushy any time he thinks about or sees Sakura; it's so amazing to me that she never thought anything of that (too dense there.) But they're so sweet together; Li-kun's such a kawaii chibi-bishounen.

I also took a walk down to the local Macey's grocery store yesterday and while wandering around the seasonal items aisle, I came across this giant bubble-making wand. It's plastic, pastel pink, green, blue, and yellow, and looks a lot like what Pretty Sammy would wield in that Tenchi Muyo spinoff. However, pictured on cardboard backing the thing is attached to is none other than everyone's favorite CLAMP magical girl: Sakura! I rather wonder that I didn't bust out laughing right there in the store (maybe I'm too dragged down right now due to nasty allergies/mild cold.) But yup, it was Sakura. She didn't have her wand with her or people would clearly have questioned why the toy looked nothing like the picture, but she was wearing that outfit she wears at the end of the first series arc, the one that looks like a warm-up suit with a cape and beret. I examined the package, but didn't notice the makers of the toy; there was also no copyright indicating ownership of the character on the package. I wonder if CLAMP knows about this; it's so clearly their character, even though the actual toy looks nothing like one of their creations, so they should at least get some percentage of the marketing.
