What Parents Need to Know
About Card Captors: Power Match
Parents need to know that there are occasional tidbits regarding Japanese culture; one episode concerns a field trip to an ancient shrine cave that is reputed to be haunted. Sakura seems timid and often seems to need the help of an arrogant male cardcaptor. The show looks attractive, with occasional use of impressive effects animation. The characters are appealing, but slow-moving stories may put off viewers looking for more action. Ten-year-old Sakura is an appealing heroine for preteens; though insecure about her skills, she rises to the occasion when necessary. Teens find the adventures of Sakura and friends a little too sedate.

This version is so dumb. I think I lost a million brain cells after watching it. You should watch the uncut version, Cardcaptor Sakura, instead. It's got some gay-related themes along with the violence/tarot cards but it's not too bad. At least not compared to this version.
