The reason I bring them up is because they are very, very queer. Yukito is gentle, sweet, and loves to scarf down as much food as possible.
Toya has a tough guy exterior but deep down cares about the people closest to him.
Sakura card captor and syaoran full#
The supporting cast is full and rich but the two most important characters to mention are Toya, Sakura’s older teen brother, and Yukito, her brother’s best friend. Cardcaptor Sakura is a series where the characters emotions and relationships take precedence over any action. It’s an extremely adorable series and for every intense action scene, like Sakura fighting off a giant dragon conjured from her friend’s imagination, there’s three adorable scenes with her doing low stakes activities like performing in a play or baking a cake. She’s joined by magical boy/rival turned love interest Syaoran Li, her best friend Tomoyo, and mystical guardian beast of the Clow Cards/cute animal companion Kero. Each card she captures gives her new magical powers and she isn’t alone.
The original series tells the story of young Sakura Kinomoto and her journey to retrieve the mystical Clow Cards in order to prevent a great catastrophe befalling the world. I didn’t know this at the time but Cardcaptors was an English reworking of the Japanese kids series Cardcaptor Sakura, originally released as a manga by the all-women artist group Clamp. This was the show that made me realize it was okay to like men.ĭespite what the oddly alluring narrator voice told me, I wasn’t prepared. I had no idea that this would be the show that, despite some of the heaviest censorship and edits ever seen in anime, would introduce me to queer characters for the first time. I had no idea then how much of an effect it would have on my life. That was, of course, my journey into discovering Cardcaptors.
