I thought the film was actually pretty epic for a shojo anime film. The animation, like always for Madhouse, is very good. I wasn't too keen on the villain, but I guess she is likable enough. The arrow card was mostly pretty useless, though.

Wasn't that bad, but kind of your typical plot. 6/10 for me.

Pretty good movie. I haven't seen the second one yet, so I can't tell which one is the best. On to movie 2!

I watched this after the 35th episode, and I have to say that this is what the show needed badly. I would have loved it if this was a short arc in the show, instead of mostly having moe slice of life with some action.

Awesome movie was really fun to watch. All the water and weird dimension stuff gave it a really surreal feel. I liked how the arrow card was brought back in, I didn't even notice the foreshadowing there (and I'm always a few steps ahead in this anime series so that's saying a lot). I just thought it was trying to start the movie off with something exciting, very nicely done.

Watched the anime months prior to this so was kinda weird going "back in time" but I got used to it really fast.

Also anyone else notice the random tank?

Hm, I think this would have been better as a two part episode in the series itself.
I don't think it really... added much to the series as a whole? Very typical and it actually was disappointing to me. A little under average 4/10.

Okay, so: if Water-Ghost-Chan wasn't trying to summon Clow to murder him but instead to make out with him, why didn't he return her calls?

(Which I think is an apt analogy. At one point during the reveal I thought the ghost was a spurned lover who had been trying to kill Clow and it occurred to me that the whole plot was the magical equivalent of Sakura being assigned Clow's old phone number and unwittingly taking a call from his crazy ex. I should've known she'd turn out to have more sympathetic motives though!)

crazy sisters made me uneasy...

i don't like the character just convince herself all the freaking time that she loves yukito :/ the show needs to stop making that up. i think it does it on second season.

It was very interesting to see everyone else in Syaoran's family in Hong Kong especially after finding out that he's surrounded by lovely Oriental ladies like that on a daily basis before he moved to Japan. I can see that all of them would be rather troublesome to live with though. I like Mama Li's interaction with Sakura.

I'm surprised that there'd be an actual villain pitted against Sakura this time around. She might be in love and in denial over the person she's waited for forever's loss but she's still someone who's crazy enough to seal in her vengeful spirit into a book just to draw him back to her no matter how long it took. She even went as far as to try to kill Sakura and kidnap her friends over her lovesickness. Yikes.

The action's nice and all but I would've liked more time seeing them enjoy Hong Kong and its culture and the further forging of bonds between the members of the main cast.

For me, this movie is kind of a mixed bag. Parts of it really felt connected with the main story but most of the 2nd half of the movie was just so filler-y which is generally my problem with movie adaptations of TV anime. It sure was pretty though. Unfortunately the only dub I could find is very westernized. Almost all of the characters have different names and Sakura's last name is Avalon apparently...? 6.7/10

So Clow was the trigger of the plot of this movie, he's the one who pushed Sakura to Hong Kong ... interesting!

This was a pretty good movie. The arrow card got some use, and saved Sakura. Li's older sisters are pretty hot, and Li's mom is quite powerful and intelligent.

Yeah, I ended up watching it subtitled. I'm watching the series with the Animax dub, but the only dub for this movie appears to be the Nelvana dub, which was heavily edited, although I fully understand your having to watch most anime dubbed due to your vision problem. I'm legally blind in one eye, which sometimes creates problems for me.

It's cool to meet Syaoran's family.

Who are these 4 onee-sans, lol.. Li's sisters, huh.. They quite like their girls and boys.. And they also liked mother.. Are they into beauty as such?.. Or something?..
Sakura is susceptible to the temptation of evil?.. Hm.. Could we expect Sakura becoming evil in the future?.. Who knows..
