Jun 20, 2018 Kam_Animeverse Mixed Feelings 'The Greek word for "return" is nostos. Algos means "suffering." So nostalgia is the suffering caused by an unappeased yearning to return.' Nostalgia, while is a strong tool to make a sequel successful with high ratings, is not enough if you are banking only… and only on it. The act of watching the sequel of a beloved show itself brings on enough nostalgia. The older audiences feel happy inside, thinking of good old days when the original show used to air and how they enjoyed it and talked about it with their friends; or enjoyed the show alone while cuddling up with their house pet, ...

May 8, 2020 haydenluvsanime Not Recommended If there’s anything worse than a bad sequel, it’s a disappointing one. Nothing about Clear Card is overtly offensive or insulting. It just sort of… exists in a weird space of its own. It has all the characters you love and remember doing their usual shenanigans. In a lot of ways, Clear Card just feels like an extension of the classic original, and after all, isn’t that what a second season is supposed to do? Well, yeah, but… let me try and explain. The series starts with a beautiful opening performed by Maaya Sakamoto, who did the third and final opening for the original, which was ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 18, 2018 brainiac1530 Recommended Preliminary (7/22 eps) Firstly, let me say that this is a series which is not strictly necessary. The original series ended satisfactorily some years ago. This isn't a reboot which is accessible to newcomers, either. It's just a bit of fanservice for fans of the original, basically. The show acknowledges this pretty squarely. The first episode is enough of an introduction to work as a reminder for returning fans, but probably wouldn't suffice for new viewers. That said, it hits its mark very quickly. If they were looking to hit that nostalgia target, they couldn't have done much better than opening with Kero-chan's ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 21, 2018 earl_of_sandvich Recommended Possible spoilers ahead. I've both watched the first series and movies, and read the manga (the final volume). Like other anime I've been watching at the time, this show helped keep my spirits up during some dark times in my life. Madhouse and CLAMP have come a long way since the original CCS 20 years ago. Madhouse re-entered my radar with Hanayamata a few years ago, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and the animation and production quality there belied their struggles in the early 2010s. Likewise I haven't really kept up with CLAMP since the early episodes of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, a series I just couldn't keep up ... Read more Open Gift Report

Feb 27, 2018 curvedtree Recommended Preliminary (6/22 eps) Not necessarily a review, but I wanted to share something that brainiac1530 said he lacks. The last time I watched Cardcaptor Sakura was almost 20 years ago and I haven't re-watched nor read anything about it ever since, so when I came across the news of this new series I thought I should give it a chance, for nostalgia, I may be a bit off, but I guess this series follows the same steps as Sakura's first arc where she is supposed to collect the cards, nothing wrong with that, it is even bitter-sweet to remember watching her when I was younger, specially my huge ...

Jun 19, 2018 LegendAqua Recommended Been almost 17 years since the original series graced us and LA watched it not knowing it was anime, now Cardcaptor Sakura finally got it's sequel and LA was hyped let alone what new adventures Sakura would go up to, for what it's worth, Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card-hen was a good sequel that expanded on Sakura's magical world...just with a few upsets. Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card-hen leaves off directly after the Sealed Card movie & the first season with Sakura now entering middle school with a cloaked figure appears in her dreams and Sakura's cards turns blank however she now collects the new "Clear" cards with ...

May 19, 2020 Njessness Recommended (one of my first time writing a review so it may not be good, but I hope it helps) I started watching the original series last week, so I'm not a long time fan, but I really enjoyed watching it. I see many people are comparing both seasons. Yes, there are major differences, especially in terms of animating the story. All I can say is I liked both styles, both have each their own points. This sequel has some sort of "hanyan" (as Sakura would say) feel to it, or maybe "fuwa fuwa" is ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 2, 2018 Rei_Lawliet Mixed Feelings Preliminary (12/22 eps) I assumed the people watching Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card-hen is for nostalgia-purposes and curiosity as to what they can do after such lovely ending in Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 2. Personally, I think the ending could have been exploited better but at least it wraps up a lot of things. If you haven't watched Cardcaptor Sakura and this is your first Cardcaptor Sakura, there will be a lot of references you will not get and there will be characters and backgrounds assumed to be known (70 episodes worth) so do I recommend? No. And it spoils everything if you plan to backtrack to Cardcaptor Sakura original series. For ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 4, 2018 PyraXadon Recommended Most people have a member of the big three, Evangelion, Sword Art, or some other action show as their gateway anime. Me? It was Cardcaptor Sakura. So you can imagine my excitement when I learned that a sequel to the show that I have since left behind in the back of my memory was being made in the modern day. And indeed, it was quite the nostalgia trip. Story: Our story brings us back to Kinomoto Sakura, who has since aged four years from the time of the original Cardcaptor series and is now entering middle school. While her life seems to have returned to as normal ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 19, 2018 LangleyAsuka Recommended Having hated the OVA previous to the new Sakura's series I was really scared that I would hate Card-Hen, it however met all my expectations and even surpass some of them. Having watching the old series recently I came to Card-Hen knowing exactly what I would get: an episodic slow progression towards the big revelation at the end of season, where we would get to watch Sakura having fun with her friends and sometimes capture a card two. It is exactly that, but having 22 episodes instead of 70 it got a much better pacing to it. With the exception of the clumsy CGI here and there ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 9, 2018 ThatAnimeQueen Mixed Feelings Preliminary (9/22 eps) up till episode 9 and honestly watching it because of sakura and syaoran , I'm so confused what each of the new card do and also i miss the old cards so much ;( althought some eps are interesting, i still found it a bit boring since all the card is just similar to the old cards and i feel like i will never being able to see the clow cards anymore. I wish syanran can tell sakura what is going on soon as it seems that he has something in his mind and don't want to tell her. also i hope the ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 19, 2018 Karhu Recommended There seems to be a common claim around Clear Card-hen stating that the only way to appreciate this anime and think it is good, is wear nostalgia glasses and let this sequel pass with the power of its predecessor. The reality is the polar opposite, from my part at least. Without any hesitation and doubt, I can say that the only way to think Clear Card-hen is inferior to its prequel, is to wear those given nostalgia glasses and look back 10-15 years in the past when most fans watched the original series. This is nothing but a corrupted memory. CCS was not better. It ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 19, 2018 tlato_but Recommended One of the most promising series of the year came a little weaker than expected, compared to the original series. The 1998 Cardcaptor Sakura is arguably the best mahou shoujo anime ever, so this Clear Card Arc needed to at least stand up to their 20 years old prequel, but Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card-hen is a little disappointment. Small spoilers ahead. Story (6/10): Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 27, 2018 NotAnElk Not Recommended Cardcaptor Sakura was great, and I think Clear Card gets a little too much credit because of that. I don't think I'll be able to avoid spoiling the show entirely, but for the most part anyone reading this already knows if they're going to watch this show or not. Story: 3 Read more Open Gift Report
Nov 18, 2022 TheRogueFeline Not Recommended A big 22 eposode nothing burger, where nothing happens and nothing gets resolved. Lost faith with this one boys. Can't say i didnt like watching the first CCS but this one was just bad. Slow pacing, no real substance to the plot, doesnt actually start to get intresting till the last 3 episodes and then nothing. No movie, no second season, just leave you there with a clif hanger and no explanation. I am very disappointed in this season. I feel this was a waste of my time. I try to do diligence and give evey anime i watch the benefit of the doubt but ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jan 23, 2024 JakobZero Not Recommended Oh Mokap’s balls this is one of the most boring pieces of media I’ve ever seen the original ccs was a very legbeardish anime do to it's questionably aged romantic leads but had decent and likable characters such as Kero and Eriol who are practically no where to be scene in this boring food network anime the show is supposed to beat about them finding the new clear cards (hence the name of the sequel) but the plot progression is soooooo slow half the show is just sakura and syaoran being super lovey dovey and for some reason the background turns bright pink every time ...

Jun 22, 2018 LaLeLuLiLo Mixed Feelings Kwik-E Clear card sakura is just an ok enough show to watch. The plot goes through the same rodeo that it had done twice before in the original show. There's enough differences in the plot line, including a whole mystery aspect that just makes it different enough to not feel to samesy. Most of the characters relatively stay the same and sakura and syaoran relationship feels a tad underdeveloped. There are also some new characters including one that is almost a mirror to sakura and also has some purpose in the plot. Yet by the end while the whole mystery had been revealed, even though there ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 26, 2018 NiQ1 Recommended Well, it's something called nostalgia. I think that every anime fan must have at least heard of Sakura and for some it may have been the first show they've ever watched. My review may be a little harsh because it's been quite a while and I'm not a kid anymore. From the story's point of view, most of the show is exactly like good old Sakura. In fact if you take away the differences in art and sound (more about that later on) you probably won't be able to tell them apart. I have two reasons I can't give the story a great score - the ...
