[[File:
[[CLAMP]]'s [[Massive Multiplayer Crossover]], [[Alternate Universe]] versions of ''[[Cardcaptor Sakura]]'' characters Sakura and Syaoran travel from [[Alternate Universe]] to [[Alternate Universe]] filled with CLAMP characters to find the [[Gotta Catch Them All|scattered feathers]] that represent Princess Sakura's heart and memories.
Line 135:
* [[Gambit Pileup]] - Summarize at the risk of your own sanity, for it is said that he who can understand what the hell has been going on since [[Growing the Beard]] has been lost to [[Cosmic Horror|eldritch Things from Beyond]]. [[True Art Is Incomprehensible]], indeed.
** {{spoiler|The last one on the pile shows just how big this gets. The [[Big Bad]] is implied to have been created by Clow's wish which in turn...}}
* [[Gambit Roulette]] - Several, for only a few of which are known about fully (although ''not'' fully understood), the combined effect of which is almost to the point where [[Gambit Pileup]] becomes inadequate description. At least three different characters are running semi-independent [[Xanatos Gambit
** Not to mention the predeceased Clow Reed, who apparently put together ''all of ''[[Cardcaptor Sakura]]'','' (long before TRC, but also after Clow's death) in preparation for TRC. {{spoiler|So is his [[Xanatos Gambit]] part and parcel with Yuuko's, or are they slightly competing? Is it supposed to trump Fei Wong Reed, or possibly stuff even further in the future / past ? AARGH.}}
* [[Generation Xerox]] - {{spoiler|The Sakuras and Syaorans.}} It can't get any more literal than that!
* [[Genre Shift]] - And ''how''. It essentially transformed, in one arc, from a happy and light-hearted [[Gotta Catch Em All]] adventure story to a [[Mind Screw]] of a fantasy drama.
* [[Girl in the Tower]] - [[Gender Flip
* [[Gotta Catch Them All]] - Collecting the feathers, which has since been revealed as a colossal [[McGuffin]] to keep them on track in the [[Big Bad]]'s plans. {{spoiler|Fai was aware of this from the start.}}
** {{spoiler|And in the end, Junior has to go and find the rest of them to restore his parents/clone and girlfriend's clone}}.
Line 162:
* [[Killed Off for Real]] - This is stated to be a fundamental rule of the multiverse (although its impact is undermined somewhat by the series' penchant for twins and clones). Death is permanent and comes to everyone in time. Even Yuuko cannot bring someone back from the dead without suffering serious consequences. {{spoiler|Except clones, because they weren't truly alive until Clow and Yuuko gave payment to have them be reincarnated. But when they die after that, it's for real.}}
* [[Lampshade Hanging]] - In Chapter 218, Mokona mentions being [[Mind Screw|incredibly confused as to what's going on]], {{spoiler|especially with the fact that Junior looks just like his father and his mother looks exactly like Sakura. Oh, and they've suddenly appeared to save the day}}. By this point, the reader likely agrees.
* [[Left Hanging]] - '''Major one here'''. Sakura and the whole of Clow Country are themselves a paradox as [[spoiler: they too existed only thanks to the [[Stable Time Loop
** Well by this point even God admitted they too [[Mind Screw|were lost]].
* [[Life or Limb Decision]] - Specifically, {{spoiler|Kurogane amputating his arm for Fai's life}}. Completely without hesitation, too.
Line 219:
* [[Occult Blue Eyes]] - Fay's magic is explicitly tied with the blue ''color'' in his eyes, which is weird.
* [[Oedipus Rex]] - Syaoran. {{spoiler|Specifically, the real one. He's been impersonating his father and romancing an a princess who is the original from whom his mother was cloned since he was seven.}}
** And that is precisely what his ahem...parents want since they see the two as their original selves. See [[Shipper on Deck]] below. Poor 7 year old Tsubasa Syaoran was totally clueless about the time loop and the [[Gambit Roulette
** Also, {{spoiler|Cloney is also an example, since he has memories of being a clone of Syaoran, and his wife has memories of being a clone of Sakura. Since they got together based on those memories, and a clone can be thought of as being like a child, its debatable which generation is imitating which}}. Time travel, reincarnation and a ''really'' tangled family tree with ever changing relationships [[Gambit Pileup|piling up on top of each other]] make things [[Mind Screw|confusing]], yes.
* [[The Other Darrin]] - Kusanagi and Tomoyo got their dub VAs replaced in the OVAs.
Line 244:
* [[Reused Character Design]] - [[Cardcaptor Sakura]] characters in an [[Alternate Universe]] setting (and it's ''not'' a sequel)
* [[Ridiculously Cute Critter]] - Mokona, oh so much.
* [[Sand Worm
* [[San Dimas Time]]
* [[Screw Destiny]] - The characters have managed to barely defy various prophetic visions. Sometimes they will "go along" with a prophetic vision up to the critical moment, in order to avoid other changes multiplying the number of possible futures and making the outcome harder to control.
Line 266:
* [[Superpower Meltdown]] - {{spoiler|In Celes country, when the second curse on Fay activates, he literally shuts down a dimension with his magic. This also highlights his [[Power Degeneration]].}}
* [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]] - Oh ''my'', Kurogane. Seishirou may also count.
* [[Tangled Family Tree]] - The {{spoiler|Reed/Li/Watanuki}} family tree looks like this. {{spoiler|Reincarnation and cloning}} make for very, very loopy genealogies.
** Perhaps should be called Thirty Relationships pileup after what happened. For starters, draw it right and it turns out poor {{spoiler|R!}}Syaoran has become related to himself in ''FOUR different ways''. It doesn't help that CLAMP kept adding more and more cross-relationships as the story progressed.
** To elaborate, the equations are rather complicated. The final result is some [[Mind Screw|blow your brain]] combo of '''all of these put together simultaneously''' - [[Always Identical Twins]] + [[Alternate Self|Alternate Selves]] + [[Identical Grandson]], [[Generation Xerox]] {{spoiler|+ [[Cloning Blues]]}} + [[Happily Adopted]] + [[My Own Grampa]] + [[Everyone Is Related]] = Really ''Really'' '''Really''' '''REALLY''' [[Tangled Family Tree]]. Sheesh!
