Sorry this caused some confusion. On our facebook page, we were asked if the dub included would be "the old english dub or a new english dub." When Shawne replied that it would be a new dub, he simply meant that it would not be the dub made by Nelvana for Cardcaptors. We have had no word about a new dub being created specifically for this release. |

in other worse it may be call a psuedo old english dub version considering its an old animax dub. regardless, both animax and nelvana are as just as bad. hopefully the quote made on the facebook page might turn out to be true and NIS might just just actually decide on doing a new english dub version instead of using the animax dub. |

Sadly not. For example, Arakawa under the Bridge doesn't work on a PS3, but Bridge x Bridge does. The list is posted here Someone will end up confirming it when it comes out. Lets just hope that it's still available by then.
Probably. Someone in Australia must have tested it as well. |

You don't actually read anything anyone else is writing, do you? Justin Sevakis, who is working on the BDs, has said it's the Animax version. NISA is not making a dub from scratch, deal with it. And too expensive? Seems your math skills are are just as good as your reading comprehension. A new Funimation title, like say Haganai NEXT, which is 12 episodes retails for $69.98. That's $5.83 per episode. A Sentai sub only BD release like Chuunibyou retails for $49.98 for 13 episodes. That's $3.84 per episode for a barebones release. This set with a much better artbox and book plus subs and dubs retails for $249.99 for 70 episodes. That's $3.57 per episode, even cheaper than a barebones Sentai release. And that's just going off the MSRP. TRSI is selling it far cheaper than that. So enough with your idiotic claims that this is overpriced. |

The Animax dub uses the original score music. How can anyone justify the Nelvana version? Im not saying the Animax version is perfect but at least it retains the uncut soul of the show. I highly doubt it would be possible but in an ideal world I would rather have the dub team from Bang Zoom that did the 2nd movie. But this isnt a question about professionalism, its about getting an already existing uncut dub out in the open for all to see, and filing the appalling 'Cardcaptors' version to the vaults to be forgotten about forever. However when all is said and done, I would still choose the Japanese dub. It would just be nice to know my future children will get to watch it in uncut English, like we all should have seen it originally. |

"They don't include dubs, they sky is falling down!"
"They're using the Nelvana dub, the sky is falling down!"
"They're not using the Nelvana dub, the sky is falling down!"
"News at 11: It is as cost effective to produce a dub for a 70 episode TV series as it is for a short movie!"
"News at 11: 'Otaku' now care about dubs!" You're determined to be in a bad mood about this, aren't you? |

Japan costs around $600-700 used for the initial pressing. The newer pressing you can get for under $600. Maybe closer to $500? Not quite sure never really look them up. I don't know how much those old Pioneer discs were going for up until yesterday but I bought my set for $300 in '09 and sold it for $700 in '12. Glad I did back then. |

Actually, its dubbed for free on Netflix.. :3 English dub and subtitled for the first 2 seasons. But back on topic with this CCS release... I didn't get to watch the show as a kid, but always wanted to (much like Sailor Moon) so I'm glad this is getting a re-release that won't be $300 in individual discs. The price point isn't awful, especially with Rightstuf's discount. Also, I've loved the recent releases of Digimon and Monster Rancher, even if they are dub only. Although, I plan to get the Monster Farm series when it's out, too. [EDIT: Sorry, but the AoA soapboxing thing is a dead horse, and we don't really like people continuously ranting about it. Sure, some people don't like them. We get it. But please keep your opinions focused on NIS America. -TK] |

I wonder if maybe the people started NIS America just so they could license this? Maybe they wanted to but wanted to test the waters on their releases like Toradora and Pandora Hearts first to be on the safe side. I'm glad they got this. I'm definitely going to ask for the standard editions for Christmas.

Hate to go off-topic with this further, but this should be cleared up. Anything that's not Digimon Savers (fifth series/season) or the first seven Digimon films (the first two films are on the same disc/release) are out of print, and you'll be paying scalper prices for anything else (like the series' proper DVD sets from a few years back). Digimon Xros Wars, the latest series, only has a Japan rental release. Over on the R1 side of things, obviously we've been getting the dub on DVD, but subtitled versions of the first three series exist on various stream sites, like Netflix, Hulu, etc. It's all spread out and confusing. Uhm, Cardcaptor Sakura. Not ever show gets what this show is getting right now, and that's a shame. All the more reason to snatch these up. |

At first, I was really excited for this DVD until I found out it had the Aniplex Dub on it. I know it's uncut, but the Nelvana Dub had better voice actors. Unless someone can tell me the Aniplex Dub improves, I think I'm gonna pass on this DVD.
P.S. I would love it if NIS America released the Nelvana Dub separately to please all the fans, like myself. |

Sorry about that  I thought something was off because you guys wouldn't know about the dub either. Either way, it's a new dub for me lol.
What I don't like though is that the dvd's don't come with the nice bonuses the bluray version has. I REALLY want the illustration book! I don't have a bluray player (aside from maybe my ps3 if it plays them), but I'm not too keen on using my ps3 to watch movies. |

The uncut English version of Cardcaptor Sakura is actually from Animax. |
