The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Erf, well... back to school with me tomorrow. It's not that I'm not looking forward to it, it's just that school is always sure to disappoint. That's a fact of life.

Cos I said I would, I'm posting the Card Captor Sakura pre-animation design cell I won at the Tokyo International Anime expo. I didn't think the series ever got as huge here as it is (now) in the US but I guess they're rerunning all the episodes on TV timed with the release of this movie. I mean, eh, if something as midless as One Piece can do well, a new CCS movie shouldn't surprise.



Clicky, clicky.


So what cracks ME up, out of what little I could glean from the booth/panel thingy, is that this new movie takes place in good ol' AMERIKUH and the Wild Wild West at that (see costumes). If you couldn't figure out from the title of the series, that girl is Sakura... and she has to capture "cards." So in this movie, she's going to AMERIKUH to capture some "cards." [ok, can you tell I haven't watched this series like, ever? so sue me for not being "with it" on today's kids' anime... I'm too busy watching cheesecake like Chobits and Onegai Teacher] Here's the real kicker... the name of these Wild Wild Cards (I got this much because they mangled it all into ENGRISH!!) are the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. I... just... yeah. I'll leave it at that. Maybe I can sell the cell on Ebay? I wonder if Mandorake in Shibuya buys them for resale... probably not. Anyone out there loooooove Card Captor Sakura?
