Im just asking because allot of ppl have different
opinions and probally think Im wierd for asking this but
do u think cardcaptor sakura (the clow cards) r real?
I want to answer my opinion but I think....ya bcuz well....
I just do I guess.(u must think Im crazy now)
-
they are real in our head (imagination). but as for real life, I don't really think so.
-
I didnt think anyone would answer this.
-
I'm not anybody :D
-
now I feel dumb lol. :blah:
-
don't feel that way, its bad for your health (mental health that is)
-
lol thanks I need a laugh.I had a some what bad day
also almost feel asleep in spanish class. :sleepy2: :sleepy1:
-
your welcome :D
-
Thank u I am so afraid at that teacher. Oops i changed the subject.
-
They're fashioned out of Tarot cards.
-
They could be.... but just like everyone except Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, and Eriol even if they were real we wouldn't know
-
Ya but it would be cool :okay:
-
yeap :D
-
you people with evil minds
:grins evilly aswell:
-
very evil
*laughs evily*
just kidding
-
:D :D :D :D
-
this very strange world has unexpected
things anyways like when keroberous
said "expect the unexpected"
(If that is talking about what I'm
meaning)
-
and thats in my signature :D
-
hey ya it is
-
Hm..it would be cool if the cards were real, like I can use fire to blow up the stuff i hate hehe....*evil cackle* anywayz, replying to your question, too bad i doesn't exsist >.<
-
They are real. If you think something exists, it exists.
-
well in some ways u r correct but this is reality isn't it. u shoudln't get caught up in imagination that much. no matter how much i want something like magic and mystic animals. it just won't xcome true.
-
i know. just as long as you believe, then yeah. i'm not as bad as my friend... i know when their is a line, and when not to cross it. It's sad.
-
I accually believe in magic and the
clow cards. :hello2:
-
it's sad that things cannot be real...
-
ya i guess but i wish MAGIC AND FANTASY WAS REAL
then we can have like magic battles and no school. no wait we would be dumb without school. ok change of place. yes school and yes magic battles after school. lol
-
But if there's magic, there's danger. Magic's a pretty powerful thing.
-
yes, pretty powerful and dangerous (especially in the wrong hands)
-
the more dangerous the mroe fun it would be. then we would have like idol superheeroes kinda thing for example SAKURA-SAMA. lol or shoaran maybe meiling too. lol
-
but it'll be so deneficial if magic is real~ really, think bout it, magic is like a source of energy so fuel prices wont go up~ :D
-
You wouldn't need fuel.. you could go ZWING and teleport yourself somewhere ^^
-
Yeah! Point made. You could amazingly be gone from your house and turn up in Japan... in time for ep 2 of TRC! lol
-
I like the idea of a world where magic and fantasy are possible or a place where could just think up what you want to be and you're it. That'd be very awesome because life can be very boring most of the time.
-
Someone told me that if u have a pur heart and u belive in something so ahrd then evenchually it will come true. Does anyone belive that.
(I think its true)
-
Hmmm...a thread about whether magic (in this the Clow Cards) could actually be real...
Interesting...interesting indeed.
Keep in mind magic can mean different things to different people. To many, magic is something that can't be explained...to others, it's tarot cards, pixie dust and boiling cauldrons...it's a matter of explainations.
Could the Clow Card magicks exist here in what we call the real, tangible world? Most likely the answer is no but if someone can make images appear and do feats of power without a known explaination, then one would consider it entirely possible.
And to settle another matter...FAERIES DO EXIST!!! :)
-
ummmm what kind of magic do u believ in. and superstitous are stupid. -.- my grandpa picked my chinese name cuz of superstition. i hate it.
I believe in magic like sort of like ccs and magic that u cant really explain I dont know its in my mind but i cant really explain it sorry. :dontknow:
-
I have two souls...one of darkness...one of light...
ARCADEMAN is my dark side...
PIXIE P is my light side...
If I'm nice, I'll post a picture of us here :)
-
lol. i c. i don't really believe in magic but sometimes i believ in miracles.
-
Misconception about magic...there is no such thing as 'black magic' and 'white magic'. It's where the origin of the magicks and who uses it that dictates its uses and properties.
-
Wiccans? Well my friend was but not anymore(I dont really know what a wicca is do u mean believe in evil?) Ur mean Im going to cry bcuz u thought this was stupid. :cry: just kidding. :)
Another misconception...WICCANS ARE NOT EVIL!!!
A wicca is another name for...a WITCH. Not all witches are evil:
Witch from Snow White - EVIL
Sabrina the Teenaged Witch- GOOD
Witch form Wizard of Oz- EVIL
Wendy the good little witch- GOOD
Yuko (from XXXholic)- GOOD (unless you're Watanuki, then EVIL lol!)
-
Firey's a real card, and very naughty....every time you see a fire truck going by, it's becuase Firey's been up to his old tricks....
-
ANd windy is real to with all the wind its bcuz of windy I guess all the elements excist.And maybe even CLOW CARDS (if u believe deep inside they're real)
-
The Shadow, The Sand, The Shot, The Time, The Silent, The Dream, The Twin, The Big, The Dark and The Return are definitely male in drawing and appearance. Others may be as well but is hard to tell because of the drawing style of CLAMP.
17 cards are symbolized by creatures, symbols and objects :wink:
-
Maybe some cards don't have a gender at all, hmm?
17 of them are items, objects or creatures. It is entirely possible that the cards themselves don't have gender period...only a similar make of what may be a humanoid form of their particular power, devoid or unbound by complexities of gender.
-
hehe.. i wish they are real..
check this out:
you can actually buy clow cards on ebay... wish i have the money to buy them! *boo*
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=31374&item=5970929135&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW
(link will be at ebay for another 6 days)
if not, search for 'clow cards'
-
erm.. i dont think it is a book.. more of like a plastic book case with the clow cards in it..
-
I think I'll save myself money and make print-outs instead :D
-
The English Clow Book with the cards = $5 (which I paid for at a store of all places). They are NOT rare...do not pay more than that.
The Japanese Clow Book = $10/$15. Nicer but again it's not really that rare.
This has been Arcademan's buying tip for the day :tongue3:
-
I have the Clow cards that are in the Plastic book. The cards are really good quality. I also have the Sakura cards. Bought them off Ebay from China for Christmas. Before I bought those, we printed them out!
This thread has gotten really interesting.
The Clow cards are very similiar to Tarot cards, which I used to collect.
In Clamp No Kiseki it says the Clow cards were based on Tarot cards.

There are indeed based on Tarot as it's a combined source of Eastern Chinese and Western 'modern age' magicks :wink:
-
I have never heard of clow card fortune telling
-
I have the book that came with my Sakura cards that tells how to do fortune telling with the cards, but it's in Chinese.
I don't know if there is a translation anywhere.
Kero shows Sakura how to do fortune telling with the Clow cards in the episode about the Mirror card. It looks like they are laid out similiar to how you lay out Tarot cards.
-
I have never heard of clow card fortune telling
Kero shows Sakura how to read the cards in an early episode...same principle :wink:
-
Maybe you could get instructions for Tarot cards and try it the same way?
-
I used the Clow Cards I bought four years ago to do some pretend fortune-telling. Heck, I even used them as Tarot cards for a while.
-
I actually used them as fortune telling tools back then. Not now though.
Although there's a more destructive way in using them. But I'd rather not tell.
-
Well the representations are a bit off but you can realign the cards to a particular meaning.
-
i dont think so they're real, of course :)
-
Topic Pruned/Cleaned-Up
Topic unlocked and please keep on topic :D

On the gender of the Clow/Sakura Cards, according to an article in CLAMP no Kiseki most of the cards are indeed female since it was a male (Clow Reed) who created the cards.
So if the cards were indeed real and if a female created them, would she make many of them male in origin?!! Interesting indeed...
-
Arcademan - It's possible. I guess the specialty of gender opposition/reversal is in place.
-
CCs clow cards in terms of fortune telling cards may be true. I don't think it is based on tarots though it looks like it has the size of an original tarot, layed out and used to do fortune telling. It doesn't have the standard card numbers of 78, major and minor acrana ,4 suits ( pentacles, sword, wand and cups), the most of all everything on the tarot card is a symbol which clow card lack, gender of the tarot card does matters!!
It seems to me Clow cards are more like oracle cards. Magic of each card which sakura called upon may be just an imagination or fantasy.
-
Most of them may be female, but there are still a few males....
I think we're under attack from the Rain card here...sigh
So they must be real!
-
really ? its been kinda dry here, i'm not too far from you really
but it would be nice if they were real, i think its more like a childs dream, or wish :keke:
-
Keep in mind that in the original manga, there were originally 18 Clow Cards. Though not exactly tarot cards, they are based on the properties of some of the tarot according to CLAMP :wink:
-
***I don't think it is based on tarots though it looks like it has the size of an original tarot, layed out and used to do fortune telling.***
Yes, they are based on Tarot cards.
In Clamp No Kiseki they talk about that.
***but it would be nice if they were real, i think its more like a childs dream, or wish***
Why can't anime be real?
It might seem real if you were in Japan?
I want to go to Japan so much.

-
I thought that were real, once it was raining and I was really exciting with all sakura thing and I yell shield!!!!!!, and I'd believe that it was protecting me...ji ji, I believe that are real but I realized that it's only on our hearts

Standerd playing cards are based on Tarot cards. In the medivel ages, people used to use magic, but became presecuted. So they invented tarot cards, as A CARD GAME. Yes, tarot cards were a card game, that were used also for divination. THese eventually became the playing cards that are used for games (fish, poker etc).
Originally, the cards were designed as a magical tool, that could be hiden as another thing :D. Somehow (WOTC), cards are now really popular for other games (MTG, DM, Pokemon, etc). If the times are changing, and the world is going to embrace the old ways again, maby this is a transitional phase......
Me, i beleive magic is real. I beleive that if someone is actually focused, and wants to learn, they can learn this. I have seen things i will not post here, not many would beleive me. But when your friend can say a word, and totally immobilise our body, then you will begin to beleive.
Ahhhh, im ranting pointlessely. If anyone wants to learn more, add me to messenger - alixis_zephyr@hotmail.com.

very interesting :3
but I don't know what WOTC, DM or MTG stand for.
wish I could find out more about that but I lack the concentra...ooh shiny red ball *chases the shiny red ball*
-
WOTC = Wizards of the Coast, the biggest gameing company on this planet, makes Dungeons and Dragons.
MTG = Magic the Gathering, biggest card game on this planet
DM = Duel Masters, a kool card game
-
Clow cards do exist....
But they don't have magical powers XD :lol:
Me thinks there are some anime shops that sell those XD :rotfl:
-
They maybe only real in terms of fortune telling as the majority of people said here. Actually I did used them once for fortune telling. I asked the cards if I would get an A in my exams and I'm so surprised what the results turned out to be ^^

1) Thanks for bumping an old topic back...NOT!
2) Last thing we need is a history lesson on tarot cards.
3) You got the last part right...you are ranting pointlessly.
and before anyone asks...
4) Yes, I am being mean. Seeing another old thread bumped is a waste of my time. Sad part is...it's been happening WAY too much here as of late.
-
Well... not the cards, but the meanings and elements! But it would be really nice to see one of those cards in real life i mean, like when you're bathin you see "watery" above you!!
Or somethings like that. It would be wonderful..... and funny!!
