Sakura

Original Release Title: Card Captor Sakura
Format: English dub on Kid's WB Saturday Mornings
Company: Nelvana
Episodes: 27 episodes (first series)

WHOOOO LET THE DUBS OUT?! OH MY GOD!! This is an absolute insult to otaku everywhere! Thank the good lord I saw this series in its original Japanese format first. The original "Card Captors" series has been so brutally battered and defiled into the horrible English dubs. Otaku out there: NELVANA IS YOUR ENEMY! Never let them dub anime as long as there are stars in the sky.

In the Japanese series, the first episode began with Sakura's dream of the Clow master, and at the end of each episode, the adorable Kero-chan would have a short commentary explaining Sakura's costume and/or items used that day. However, Card Captors shows Sakura capturing a card from a completely different episode, spoiling the endings to ones not shown! Nelvana skipped the first five episodes and is showing the English version in a different order! Names have been changed, and much has been cut out from the original. What makes me rip my hair out the most was how these jerks completely tarnished my favorite character: Tomoyo-chan! She was so sweet with her cute, high voice in the Japanese series. Then they just had to lower the boom on me!

If you watch Card Captors, you won't find a character named Tomoyo. They changed it to Madison! HOW DO YOU GET MADISON OUT OF TOMOYO?! Not only her name, but her sweet and polite way of speaking was replaced by a teenybopper, Alicia Silverstone, "Clueless-esque" voice. _("What-ever!") Oh, my dear Tomoyo! Rest in peace. I bet you all know what I'm going to give this show, badly ruined by Americans...
Pros: Absolutely none. Well, maybe the animation itself, but that's about it. (WATCH IT SUBBED!)

Cons: Please see article. ENTIRE article. (I guess you weren't reading.)

The Final Verdict: ???

Mwah ha ha! NO STARS! This is by far the worst English dubbed anime since G-Force! It deserves to be awarded with a big fat zero. God, I have nothing more to say. Take this cursed dub and burn it at once!!
