Ten-year-old Sakura's adventures continue as she pursues the magic Clow Cards and the spirits they control: Jump, a violent pink creature who resembles a mutant Pokemon, bedevils a woman who sells plush toys--until Sakura brings him to heel. Episode 9 stands out as an example of sensitive storytelling. Everyone perceives the eerie specter in the woods near their school differently; Sakura sees the ghost of her mother, who died seven years ago. Recalling Yuki's advice that her mother would never put her in danger, Sakura penetrates the ruse and captures Illusion, who shows people what they desire to see. Sakura's older brother is dumbfounded when he realizes their mother's spirit actually has been watching over her. But Sakura isn't the only one pursuing the enchanted Cards. Shaoran Li, the brash new student from Hong Kong, is a distant relative of the sorcerer who created the Cards: he arrogantly insists he's the only one qualified to deal with them. Despite his protests, Sakura demonstrates her skill by capturing the powerful Lightning. Kerberos presents details about Sakura's clothes and home between episodes. Cardcaptor Sakura offers warm but never saccharine entertainment. (In Japanese with English subtitles.) Rated 13 and up, but appropriate for children three to four years younger. An edited version of these same episodes is available, entitled Cardcaptors: Power Match that's suitable for the 6-year-old crowd. --Charles Solomon

 And the cards keep coming! May 1, 2001

Not to be missed, this fills in the remaing gaps on what all happened _before_ Li arrived! First up, in Episode 5, Sakura discovers that the Jump card has invaded a young shop owners wares! Worse, it pulls them altogether to form a..well..I don't want to spoil it. Next, the Illusion card is playing with kids minds in the woods, going so far as to try and off Sakura with an image of her late mother! This one has a real tearjerker ending, folks! (And this is coming from a 23 year old male! My mom gave me defective genes, I swear!) For the third ep., a young child is upset at an art museum for apparently altering a painting of him done by his father. Actually it's just been "occupied" by the Silent card, which really doesn't like noise... Also, Li actually makes his first appearance in this episode, in a very brief cameo. Finally, we have the Episode the Dub starts with, Li's arrival at Sakura's school and rather brusque request for the cards collected so far, as well as the activities of the Thunder card... So once again, if you're an addict, grab it! Bring on the third one!! Scorpinac

Card Captor Sakura is one of the most beautifully drawn anime ever to grace Japan. As soon as I heard about it's debut in America, I thought 'finally!'. And then the big disappointment. I don't know what Nelvana did to the lovely anime and I'm pretty sure I don't want to know of the horror, but when WB introduced me to the brand new show by the name of "Cardcaptors", I was completely shocked. The terribly sung theme song, the voices that were far from coming close to being like the original, and the totally confusing story line was just impossible to watch. To see the original, un-cut CCS is like watching a whole different anime. A beautiful, cute, one-of-a-kind anime. I promise you, you won't be disappointed with this video tape. And once you see the true version of CCS, you'll never even glance once at the dubbed one. So, if you're a "Cardcaptors" fan, please buy this wonderful tape so you can see what wonderfulness you're missing out on. Trust me, it's worth it. It really, truely is.
Another delightful volume! December 15, 2000

Cardcaptor Sakura continues to be perhaps the most charming show I have ever seen in this volume. The characters are explored more (the development is very well done, particularly in episode 6), the plot thickens with the arrival of Shaolan, the humor is very cute, and the animation, acting and music all continue to be top notch. This is far, far better than any of that "Cardcaptors" junk you'll see on TV. All in all, this is a great volume.
10 times better than the dubbed counterpart November 19, 2000

This is a great show about a young 4th grader named Sakura Kinomoto. She opened a book and accidentally let loose all the magical cards. Now, with the help of the Guardian beast Kero-chan and some friends, she is off to find them.That's the basic storyline. Simple? Hardly. Aside from the basic plot, the show also shows character development...a thing the dubbed version, Cardcaptors (Cardcraptors) lacks. The characters grow and change throughout the show, providing a great source of entertainment that's easy to get hooked on. So, whether as a gift or just something to pass the time, I highly reccomend Cardcaptor Sakura.
