Editorial Review:

As the plot of this popular series escalates, Kero notes that Sakura's magical powers are increasing--and that she may need them in an upcoming conflict. But other characters have special abilities. Sakura's older brother, Toya, "sees things other people can't," and his vision causes him to follow a mysterious spirit who takes the form of his sister. Sakura's substitute math teacher, Ms. Mizuki, knew Toya when he was a junior high student and they became very friendly--as Sakura discovers when the Return card carries her into the past. Shaoran Li stretches his powers to call Sakura back, although Kero suspects Yuki somehow aided him. Ms. Mizuki commands formidable powers of her own, which enable her to smash the labyrinth erected by the Maze Card--and causes Shaoran to fear her. Rated 13 and older, but appropriate for children three to four years younger; minor cartoon violence. --Charles Solomon

4 out of 5 stars Kon-nan-nachi-waaaaa!!!!!.......2005-05-11

Cardcaptor Sakura, Vol. 7: Magical Mystery contains four episodes of the magical adventures of a young girl named Sakura as she tries to recapture ancient cards that have escaped. Joining her in her search are her friend Tomoyo, who videotapes Sakura's battles as well as construct's Sakura's battle costumes, a tiny winged animal named Kero who claims to be the guardian of the cards, and her rivals Li Shaoran and Meilin, who are from Hong Kong.

Episode 25: Two Sakuras - Sakura's doppelganger is wreaking havoc downtown - and ruining her reputation! There is a legend that if you see your doppelganger, you will die. Is this a Clow Card or the end of Sakura?

Episode 26: Sakura and the Wonderful Teacher - Sakura wakes up early from a mysterious and beautiful dream. She decides to take advantage of the time, and go for an early walk to school. As she is enjoying herself outside, she runs into an enchanting and beautiful woman. Sakura is infatuated. At school, the woman is her substitute math teacher! Li is not as infatuated, however. He senses great power from Ms. Mizuki.

Later that day, on the way to a shrine to buy a charm, Sakura and her friends are trapped in the Maze card. Each time they try to escape, the maze compensates. Will they die inside?

Episode 27: Sakura and the Shrine of Memories - Toya and Mizuki sensei have a past! Sakura gets sucked into the past by a Clow Card to witness it all - but how will she get back to the present time?

Episode 28: Sakura and the Enchanted Cards - Viewers will be happy to see the Twin Bells toy and gift shop with it's gracious owner. The shop is selling "enchanted cards," which are on various things like diet, cooking, romance. The cards quickly catch on, but it seems a real Clow Card - a dangerous attack one - got mixed up in them. Can Sakura or Li get to it before it targets someone?

The DVD has an art gallery with a beautiful image of "mirror," the prettiest Clow Card I have seen so far.

5 out of 5 stars Lots of Fun..........2002-03-07

Lots of confusing things happen when you hit volume 7 of this wonderful series. Most of all you realize that Sakura has a lot more going on around her than she realizes. Miss Kaho Mitsuki first shows up in episode 26 of this DVD which along with all the rest of the episodes in this collection are some of the best and most dramatic in the series. This DVD whets my appetite for the next upcoming volume Cardcaptor Sakura:Sweet Trouble...

5 out of 5 stars A New Clow Card.......2002-02-19

You will like this a lot. It show you a new episode and several undercut versions that was not shown on kids WB that made these four episodes very interesting to watch. The cards that sakura has to capture is the mirror card, the maze card, the return card, and the shot card.

5 out of 5 stars Some of the series' best episodes!.......2002-02-16

"Sakura and Another Sakura," "Sakura and the Wonderful Teacher," "Sakura and the Shrine of Memories" and "Sakura and the Incantation Cards" are four Card Captor Sakura episodes you won't want to miss! They show a lot of the series' character development and backstory, which is why I consider these four some of the best episodes.

First, there's "Sakura and Another Sakura." A copy of Kinomoto Sakura is running around Tomoeda District causing trouble. Yanagisawa Naoko, always first to offer a scary tale she's heard (much to the chagrin of ghost-fearing Sakura), remembers a saying that if you see your exact double in real life, you die. However, as Sakura-chan learns to tell fortunes with her Clow Cards, she realizes that she isn't the one that this spirit is out to harm...

Next, in "Sakura and the Wonderful Teacher," the kind yet mysterious Mizuki Kaho-sensei, a miko (shrine maiden) who seems to know Sakura's older brother Touya, comes to teach math at Tomoeda Elementary. Li Syaoran thinks she seems suspicious, but Sakura counters that she seems nice enough. Meiling, Syaoran's self-proclaimed fiancee, takes Sakura and her best friend, Daidouji Tomoyo, to Kaho's shrine to buy charms, and she manages to drag Syaoran along, too. They get caught in a mysterious green maze, and Sakura's cards, Syaoran's spells, and anything else they try can't seem to get the group out of the maze... until help arrives from an unexpected source!

In "Sakura and the Shrine of Memories," we return to Kaho's shrine because Kero-chan, the cards' guardian, can sense a card there. Sakura and Syaoran can't seem to find it anywhere- until Sakura gets sucked into a giant tree! The Return card, having taken up residence at the tree, has pulled Sakura back to her brother Touya's junior high days, where it is discovered that he did know Kaho before she returned to Tomoeda recently. Sakura can't spend all the time from then until the present in the tree, can she? How will she escape?

In this video's final episode, "Sakura and the Incantation Cards," Twin Bells, a local store, has begun to stock strange cards that look similar to Clow Cards and supposedly give you more confidence and power. Sakura is going to buy a "Cooking Card," but they are sold out. However, she and Syaoran have a more important matter to think about: one of their classmates has bought a REAL card!

Overall, I think these four episodes show a lot of character development and backstory, and are real staples to the series.

"Next time too, together with Sakura, release!"

3 out of 5 stars Distorted video when played through a computer TV card.......2002-02-08

I am very fond of this series and enjoy the original unbutchered version of Card Captor Sakura, viewed as Clamp/Mad House intended it to be. Unfortunately I must make a technical bulletin about this title: if you have a hardware setup like mine, where the computer isn't capable of DVD-ROM playback and you have a DVD player patched into a TV card, you are going to get bad video quality from this title. Purples and pinks (colors that occur frequently in the CCS color balance) are distorted particularly badly. I was very disappointed, considering that art and presentation are significant parts of Japanese animation.

Sakura discovers she has a mischievious twin that is actually the mirror card. The card makes a beeline for Sakura's brother. Can she tame this card in time? There's a new teacher on the block. Li doesn't like her but when the maze card traps Li and Sakura in a maze the instructor's help must be graciously accepted. Then there's the shrine of memories but I'll save that one for the viewer becuase it's rather memorable. Finally there's that card shop selling cards. They wouldn't be clow cards, would they? Nah, they couldn't possibly be clow cards... Or maybe...
