5.0 out of 5 stars IT WAS WONDERFUL!, June 3, 2002

By 

Mike Harden (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cardcaptors: Vol. 5 Firestorm (ep. 13-15) (DVD)

As I scroll down the list of reviews, I see that most of the people hate Nelvana and the whole Cardcaptor scene. I mean, I LOVED this video. It contained the BEST 4 episodes of Cardcaptors. I mean, I KNOW that 99.9% of the people here hating Nelvana but liking CLAMP's original version never would know about Cardcaptors unless Nelvana dubbed it.

3.0 out of 5 stars The cut and uncut version are equally good!, November 3, 2001

By 

Kitty (New york) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cardcaptors - Firestorm (Vol. 5) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Cardcaptors and cardcaptor sakura are equally good. The uncut version is aiming for older people 13+ and nelvanas cut version is aiming for aroung 12 yr olds. The voices are brilliant on the cut and im not so sure about the uncut voices.
Hope you find the cut and uncut version of cardcaptors equally good!! Although the original has more friendship, emotions and more of a plot.

1.0 out of 5 stars This tape is top best-selling product here, but guess what?, October 21, 2001

This review is from: Cardcaptors - Firestorm (Vol. 5) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Cardcaptors originally came from Japan, a light-hearted, wonderful show called Cardcaptor Sakura. Cardcaptors is the very mutilatelated version of it. No, this isn't another rant. It's only purpose is to inform. The original is MUCH better. I do realize it's very expensive but well worth the money! At least see the first tape. The subtitles are accurate and easy to read. And all of the episodes are in order unlike Cadrcaptors. What strikes me as funny is that this is a best-selling product but this tape contains some of the most mutilated episodes. Shot Card episode: Had over 6 minutes cut from it, the focus of the episode changed, 2 minutes of added footage from a 'flashback' (Which was not there originally.) of the Jump Card ep, and numerous changes, such as Sakura cooking koroke (fried potato) with her dad has become 'dumplings'. Often Nelvana will change lines or food because they don't like showing culture. Sometimes they will paint over Japanese writing. One of the worst episodes. I'm not going to review each episode, but take note, there are so many pointless changes that it's pathetic.
