The Nelvana was unedited...just with a US hack-job airing. And I've heard the English Animax dubs...they're not that good. They may as well do a sub-only, and put the Nelvana dub onto another release


I can assure you that the full aired 'DUB' you are talking about was edited. I have watched it and also own Madman's unedited DVD set and there are MANY edits. Let me give you a simple example.

In episode 3 Sakura goes on a date with Yukito to the aquarium where they encounter the Watery card. In the Cardcaptors version that was changed to them meeting by accident. Any such thing that hinted at relationships and especially the same sex relationship between Sakura's brother and Yukito was removed.

Not to mentioned tomoyo's mom was in love with sakura's mom and hates her father because of it.

its as i said. the nevlana dubs are an abomination just like the 4kids dubs.

at least the animax dubs are by far much better , even though their medicore and unwatchable at best which have been the MO for all of animax asia dubs.

but at least it have one cause NIS could have easily go the sub only route.

The Animax dub isn't very good, though.

I guess I could make a nitpick on the covers because I wish NIS America chose a different font like something along Geneon used. I don't if it's just me or not, but that font makes that package look like a bootleg at first glance. Anime dazed

Oh don't worry, it's not just you who think it does.

Tough. It is unreasonable for fans to demand that NISA re-dub a 70-episode series and commit to making $0 off of the release. Ultimately, for the few individuals who can't stand watching something that isn't dubbed, they have an option. If it's not good enough, watch the sub like everyone else.

Rokugo: I guess if fans really wanna pony up, they can convince NISA to crowdfund a better CCS dub. Though that would likely delay the release of the set...

Judging by fan reaction, it looks like NISA has hit a homerun with this announcement.

Are you Hayate Kurogane? I've always wondered if she/he posted here.

and yes I think it looks bootleggy too. But still, the fact that it's coming here is all that matters. It could be released in jewel cases and folks would still buy it.

Maybe it is because I am not a collector and am looking at it from a different perspective, but that font looks good to me. The whole cover looks good. Not just acceptable or passable, but good. I would not mind having that cover as a poster.

If it had not been mentioned here I would have never, ever suspected that it might possibly be a bootleg.

But, as others have said, it is what is on the discs that is really important. I am anxiously awaiting their arrival.
