Take what they did with Yu-Gi-Oh. Multiply that by a million, and give it bad voice actors. That's Cardcaptors. Oh, I'm very are of that! O_O I just watched both the original CCS episode and the dubbed one about when Sakura meets Tomoyo's mother, who still had some resentment towards Sakura's father marrying Nadeshiko(Who happened to be his student). TIIC changed the ENTIRE story to be some bullshit about them all growing up together and the "rivalry" being about something as trivial as track. *facepalm* Needless to say, I wasn't quite in the mood to watch any more.
I actually like the original show pretty well, though. Sakura's really cute and naive and a bit oblivious to a lot of things around her. Which works fine for a girl who (Aside from losing her mom at a young age) has had a really happy upbringing with a father and brother who love and protect her. Not so much for Mokuba, who's life is the exact opposite of hers, and I loathe fics that make him to be so naive about...everything. Including why Seto works so hard as he does.
BTW, 4Kids didn't do the CCS dub. It was Nevana. Being named for doing this show is an insult not even 4Kids deserves. ;)
Seto is much more on the ball with regards to Mokuba than many fic writers credit. AMEN. It's why I just don't buy stories where Mokuba turns into a pissy emo and becomes seriously depressed without anyone noticing. From personal experience, it takes a REALLY long time for depression to get that bad to turn to drugs and cutting and thoughts of suicide. In 99 percent of cases, there has been a long line of events that contribute significantly to this build-up, and there are some cases of being depressed simply out of bordom. Being VP of such a large company, I definately couldn't buy into the latter of that for depression. 0_o
