Cardcaptor Sakura/WMG: Difference between revisions

== [[Cardcaptor SakuraTomoyo (Manga)|Cardcaptoris an [[Author SakuraAvatar]] ==

== Tomoyo is an [[Author Avatar]] == Aside from acting like an older woman and not being one of Sakura's [[Those Two Guys]], Tomoyo happens to have unlimited resources, tapes and designs Sakura's costumes, and manages to always tag along despite the complete inappropriateness of an unpowered [[Muggles|muggle]] doing so. She fawns over how adorable Sakura is, yet cheers her on as pursues Li. These are all things a writer metaphorically does. Thus, [[Shipping]] Tomoyo with anyone is authorically incestuous.

* Another example of hidden avatars is in [[The Movie]], where Li happens to have four much older and surprisingly gushy sisters. This seems unusual, given that the Li family's serious reputation is suggested as the reason for Syaoran's initial coldness, until you realize they probably represent [[CLAMP (Creator)|CLAMP]].

== Sakura is an ancient ancestor of Milfeulle and Apricot from [[Galaxy Angel (Animeanime)|Galaxy Angel]]. ==

****** Supported by the fact that in [[XXX Holic×××HOLiC]] we find out that Sakura paid her Star Staff to Ichihara Yuuko (the reason has major spoilers for both Holic and [[Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]]). It doesn't mention what happened to the Cards or Kero and Yue (we ''may'' find out once Holic and TRC finally finish up, but this is Clamp), but presumably Sakura wouldn't have let anything bad happen to them. So she may have found a way to support them without the staff.

****** CLAMP mentioned in an interview in one of the Artbooks that Sakura no longer needed her staff to summon the cards after the original manga series' end (whether this applies to Tsubasa canon, I have no clue). Clow never needed a staff to summon the cards, he simply created one to help Sakura with her growing powers. All the cards can become dormant within the book, storing power from the original owner (as they did with Clow) until they are ready to be used again. Clow always knew Sakura was going to become the mistress of the Cards and knew she would release the cards in that fashon in order to form a bond with them, as mentioned in the end of the manga. When talking about [[Cardcaptor Sakura (Manga)|Cardcaptor Sakura]] and Tsubasa together, I suggest going off the MANGA canon, not the anime, as they missed a whole ton of key points in the anime.

== The [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Book of Darkness]] is a [[Mirror Universe]] analog to the Book of Clow ==

* The logic on this one is pretty simple. Eriol is {{spoiler|the reincarnation of Clow Reed that contains all the memories of the original}}. Clow Reed was very involved with Yuuko and {{spoiler|wished her to open her eyes when she died, causing her continued existence and a lot of the problems in the [[XXX Holic|xXxHolic×××HOLiC]] story}}, so he probably was at the very least a friend and must have known that the butterfly was her symbol. So when Eriol went to make Ruby Moon and Spinnel Sun as alternates to Yue and Keroberos he gave them butterfly wings and a darker color scheme as homage to her. It also explains why, despite being a technically [[No Biological Sex|sexless]] spirit, Ruby Moon [[Wholesome Crossdresser|dresses]] and [[Genki Girl|acts]] the way 'she' does.

Think about it. Sakura and Simon both "inherited" their powers/abilities from someone else (Sakura got her magic from Clow Reed; Simon got his [[Hot-Blooded]] nature and much of his [[Heroic Spirit]] from Kamina). Both of them are trained by their predecessors in the use of said powers/abilities (Clow trained Sakura by proxy of Kero and Yue; Kamina fought alongside Simon as [[Bash Brothers]]). Each is a [[Badass Adorable]] (Admittedly, Simon only really counts as adorable pre-timeskip). Furthermore, each one has pretty much limitless power/potential (Simon's Spiral Power is ''infinite'' by [[Word of God]]; Sakura is even more powerful than [[Big Good|Clow Reed]] by the end of the series ''[[Child Mage|as a ten year old]]'', there's NO WAY she won't grow stronger). Finally, each gets kind of screwed over in terms of interpersonal relationships - Simon: his first crush falls in love with his bro Kamina, who promptly dies in the next battle, one of his closest friends performs a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] near the end of the series, and his wife disintegrates immediately after exchanging their vows, ''and'' it's implied [[Who Wants to Live Forever?|that he'll carry that pain until the end of time]]. Sakura: Well.... For the sake of brevity, just go and look at [[Cardcaptor Sakura (Manga)/Tear Jerker|Cardcaptor Sakura]].
