**Cardcaptor Sakura** is my favorite manga/anime series of all time. I love this series because it features the most common themes and cliches that we normally see in the everyday shoujo (girls) manga stories. It has the very adorable magical girl genre, a girl being the hero of our story, cute creatures as the hero's guardians and advisers, comedy, romance, implication of love between two boys, implication of love between two girls, adventure, and most of all, a pure and sweet innocent love between our girl hero and our boy hero.

But there are a few differences in the original manga and its anime version. When a story becomes popular but the manga series is short, the anime extends the story with many fillers. Here are a few:

**The manga and anime differences in Cardcaptor Sakura**

| Manga                                                   | Anime                                                                    |
| ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| 12 volumes                                              | 72 episodes & 2 movies                                               |
| 19 cards captured                                       | 52 cards captured                                                        |
| Sakura has no rival except Syaoran                      | Sakura has Meiling as another rival for Syaoran                          |
| The story ends with Sakura and Syaoran in middle school | The story ends with Sakura and Syaoran capturing the final card together |

As a fan of the Sakura and Syaoran couple, my two favorite quotes are the following:

>"I don't want to be your master. I want to be your friend." - Sakura

>"Even if I lose this feeling, I'm sure that I'll just fall in love with you all over again." - Syaoran

This coming May 2016 will be the series' 20th Anniversary since its first release of the manga's first volume. I'd like to *really* celebrate it as a long-time fan!
