CCS Week Day 4: Dream

Prophetic dreams of Judgement Day

I have spent all day going crazy over this prompt because I didn’t know what I wanted to do with it. I kept going back and forth between a photoset, an AMV or a fic and I went slightly mad thinking about it. Ultimately I went for a cross between a GIF and an AMV because why not.  

I really like that Sakura has this ability of prophetic dreaming and that it’s been there since before she unlocked her powers as a Cardcaptor. It makes me wonder whether she would have earned a reputation as a fortune teller (not necessarily professionally) if things were different.

Update: Posting it as a GIF was not working out apparently so I’m re-posting it as a video *sighs*

CCS Week Day 3: Family 

I got home MUCH later than I anticipated and as a result I was only able to focus on the Kinomoto family *cries* What a family though - I wouldn’t be surprised if Nadeshiko also had some latent magical powers as well honestly. Ridiculously powerful family but also humble and kind and sweet and SUCH A RARITY. 

Also, because I love them too, the Daidouji’s are easily my second favourite family because not only do mother and daughter care for each other dearly but also confide in each other and that is not as easy to find in my opinion. 

[If I can edit a picture of the Daidoujis before midnight I will upload it so this may be a tentative part 1 (meh)]

CCS Week Day 3 Part 2: Family - Daidouji 

I didn’t make it in time here in the UK but I’m taking advantage of timezones further west and going to post this anyway (ehehehe). I just love these two and I couldn’t resist playing around to get this. This photo is far from perfect and I’m sure once I master photoshop this will make me cringe but present me is super proud and happy with the result so that’s all that matters ^.^ 

I know I keep saying this but the dynamic they have as mother-daughter is truly amazing. It isn’t shown much in the show but I like how Sonomi enables her daughter’s hobbies (I guess part of this is because they are/were similar to hers) but still keeps it at a healthy level because Tomoyo isn’t overtly spoiled (again this can be attributed to her personality too but there definitely is a base somewhere). They care for each other deeply which is hard to find in a single parent (we don’t know where the father/husband is) who is super busy. In fact Sonomi even tries to take time out for Tomoyo (and Sakura) and it’s just lovely to see even if it is just glimpses here and there.

CCS Week Day 1: Fashion 

CardCaptor Sakura has always been and will always be a huge part of my life. To celebrate the new year and the upcoming animation of the new Clear Card arc, I’m taking part in CCS week 2018! For my first post of the week (and the year!) I present to you a few of the outfits we know and love! Forgive my editing skills but then again Sakura will always be more than enough to compensate for my lack of artistry hehehe! 

Note: I really wish that I could have fit in every single outfit - it was rare for magical girls (when I started watching CCS) for them to have a different outfit for every battle. It was one of the reasons I got hooked on to CCS ^.^

CCS Week Day 7: Clear Card Arc

And finally - THE NEW ARC. I am so so SO excited to see how the anime tackles it because the old arc had obvious differences with the manga so I would like to see how it diverges. Moreover I can’t wait to see how the plot itself unfurls. 

See you onboard the CCS express fellow fandomers!

CCS Week Day 6: Master of the Cards 

Sakura and the Clow/Sakura Cards 

For this prompt I decided to make an AMV with Sakura’s interaction with the cards. Due to time constraints and stuff I stuck to the general (?) interactions she has - it’s all very abstract and the cards’ true forms are rarely shown, but it does show some of the extent of her capabilities in using them I guess. I really like the fact that she can interact with the cards both directly and indirectly and that it isn’t just a two way street but a multi-forked pathway of communication as well.
