This section is my take on the CCS series... in another dimension, of sorts. It's the section where I ask, "What if...?" What if Kero-chan was a tiny bug? What if Shaolan and Kero-chan were stuck in each other's bodies forever? What if Sakura's mother never died? What if Eriol and Tomoyo fell in love? What if Kaho and Touya hit it off when she returned to Tomoeda? Hmmm? Would CCS be the same as it is now?

I shouldn't have to mention something this blaringly obvious, but there are spoilers scattered all over this section. I was originally going to try and split up things into a spoiler section and a spoiler-free section, but that would've just been an useless amount of confusion for the both of us. So if you haven't seen the whole series, or if you don't want to spoil yourself, I suggest going other places.

  1. What if Nadeshiko never died?
  2. What if Nadeshiko and Fujitaka never met?
  3. What if Sakura never opened the seal on the book?
  4. What if Touya opened the seal instead?
  5. What if Kero-chan was a giant pink bunny?
  6. What if Shaolan fell in love with Sakura the first time he saw her?
  7. What if Sakura never fell in love with Yukito?
  8. What if Yukito returned Sakura's feelings?
  9. What if Sakura didn't win the Last Judgment?
  10. What if Yukito knew about Yue all along?
  11. What if Yue had the same reaction to sweets as Suppi?
  12. What if Sakura was a complete airhead?
  13. What if Shaolan truly loved Meiling?
  14. What if Kero-chan and the Cards were discovered by the general public?
  15. What if Sakura fell into the Pokemon world?
  16. What if Tomoyo created a motion picture film with all her recordings?
  17. What if all the Clow Card business happened while Sakura and her friends were all in high school?
  18. What if Sakura was never able to convert all the cards to Sakura Cards?
  19. What if Eriol and Kaho never met in England?
  1. What if Nadeshiko never died?

    Well, this one's somewhat of a toughie. If Nadeshiko never died, then Sakura would've been able to know her better. Perhaps Sakura's family and Tomoyo's family would still have better relations. Sakura would most likely had have some music lessons, like Touya. Sonomi would be constantly battling with Fujitaka for her affections during family gatherings. Overall, Sakura might have grown up in an atmosphere with a bit more of a feminine touch, but it wouldn't have made too much of a significance to the Clow Cards. But wait... let's take a deeper look into this. Sakura grows up more feminine, she is a much better cook. Touya can't tease her anymore. And then... and then... Sakura won't ever turn into a monster and stomp down the stairs, and through this twist of fate, an alien civilization in the far reaches of the galaxy will be alerted (since Sakura not being a monster is such a shocking thing...) and they will come and try to take over the earth! But then Sakura would use the Big card and battle them, and truly be turned into her monstrous state, driving them away. Then Touya will have a reason to call Sakura a monster again, and the world will once again be in harmony.
  2. What if Nadeshiko and Fujitaka never met?
    Well, that's simple. Touya, nor Sakura would've been born. Then the Clow Cards would've never been released, Kero-chan would forever sleep in the basement (if the same basement ever even existed anymore, considering the fact that if the two parents didn't meet, they didn't buy the house with the book in it) and CCS wouldn't even exist. Then aliens would take over. And this time there would be no Sakura the monster to save us all from it!
  3. What if Sakura never opened the seal on the book?

    Kero-chan will forever stay sleeping and snoring in the basement of Sakura's house, how sad! And then his snoring will get louder and louder and louder and louder until it causes a gigantic earthquake which splits the earth into two! And then, aliens from the far reaches of the next galaxy will smell the great minerals and resources in the core of the earth, and they will take over.
  4. What if Touya opened the seal instead?

    Card Captor Touya dressed up in frilly pink outfits, anyone?
  5. What if Kero-chan was a giant pink bunny?

    He wouldn't know any dignity. And he would have to cramp up in the basement, because giant bunnies can't go around rampaging on the streets. But the good side of it is that if Shaolan ever insulted him, Kero-chan could just stomp on him, instead of biting his finger. :P And he would scare all potential alien takeovers because he was just too cute and pink for them all to handle.
  6. What if Shaolan fell in love with Sakura the first time he saw her?

    No glaring at Sakura. No I-Want-Yuki's-Affection fights with Sakura. How dull! Would we all really and truly want that? ¬¬ Or maybe it would be amusing in that he would spend the whole season running away from Sakura, instead of just the third season. :P And then he and Touya would get into a lot more fights, because Touya is super protective of Sakura. Even more than he's protective of Yukito, I would imagine. Though he is pret~ty protective of them both... poor Shaolan, he's always in such a pinch by the protective older brother type. :P
  7. What if Sakura never fell in love with Yukito?

    Then it would give Shaolan a great CHANCE-UU!! Unless, of course, Shaolan still fell in "love" with Yuki in the first season. Then Sakura would be left alone, because Shaolan would be chasing Yukito, and she wouldn't have anyone to chase. Oh wait! That might also give Tomoyo a chance-uu for Sakura's affections! Or Eriol! Or... or... anyone, really. If Sakura wasn't completely ga-ga over Yukito, then her options would be quite open. :P And a lot more people would have a chance of being a couple with her. And then that would make quite a lot of crazy fanfic writers happy.
  8. What if Yukito returned Sakura's feelings?

    Oh mah gawd. I don't even want to think about it. o.o; Can anyone say, pedophile? -_-; That would be quite scary. I can't imagine Yukito ever falling in love with Sakura because he's so older-brother type. And he is way too much older for her. But then again, we have the whole Terada-sensei and Rika thing going on, and the whole Kaho and Eriol thing also... ¬¬;; But! If Yukito returned Sakura's feelings, it would be super bad, because Touya would be heartbroken! And poor Touya, being heartbroken for another time, will never love again~! Hell, he might even be so weakened by his loss of Yukito that he might *gasp* be seduced by Nakuru! And that would be such a wrong turn of events that fate will knock over a molding bowl of Jell-O (which just happened to be alive) and it would go around terrorizing the whole world! KYAAA~!!
  9. What if Sakura didn't win the Last Judgment?

    Oh my. o.o; That would be quite depressing. I think the most depressing thing would be that Yamazaki and Chiharu won't like each other anymore. Because they're one of those couples that you can't IMAGINE being without each other. ¬¬;; If they no longer liked each other, the world would spin off its axis and spiral into the flaming hot sun! Shaolan wouldn't like Sakura anymore, and he would go back to Hong Kong like normal, living out the rest of his life, most likely being married to Meiling. But then... if Meiling's most important feeling is gone, then she would no longer love Shaolan. Therefore, the engagement would most likely be off. And Yukito wouldn't even exist anymore... no more hanyaaan~! Sakura, no more awesome moments between him and Touya... and of course, no more Kero-chan! And no more Yue! And that would be absolutely dreadful. In total, it's a damn good thing Sakura was destined to win from the very beginning. x_x;
  10. What if Yukito knew about Yue all along?

    Then Yue wouldn't really need a fake identity, would he? o.O; I mean, just dress the guy up in some human clothes, give him some shoes... uhm... hide the wings...? and voila! You've got an almost normal human! O_o; Then again, maybe that wouldn't be such a good idea. ¬¬;; Let's rethink this, shall we? If Yukito knew about Yue from the very beginning, I would imagine he would talk to himself a lot. And then people would give him strange looks, thinking he's schizophrenic, because he would be talking to his alter identity in his head. I wonder what kind of conversations they would have.
    • Yue: Has Sakura caught all the cards yet?
    • Yukito: I don't think so. *smile*
    • Yue: She should hurry up. It's cramped in here.
    • Yukito: Why, are you worried about her? *knowing smile*
    • Yue: Of course not. *glare*
    And then, there would be the issue of Touya!
    • Yukito: Good morning, To-ya!
    • Touya: Morning, Yuki.
    • Yue: Hands off, he's mine.
    • Yukito: Tough luck, you're only a voice, aren't you?
    • Yue: *glare*
    Then again, perhaps the two would be at peace with each other. I mean, they are the same person when you really think about it. :P Besides, they're fine with each other in the third season, when Yukito knows about Yue and they both talk to each other, and he can transform on will. I think that if Yukito knew about Yue from the very beginning, the two would probably be merged into each other as one person, with two forms. Because if  Yukito knew about the cards and Yue, there would be no reason to have his memories blocked out when he transforms into Yue. It's just fun to imagine what kinds of conversations they would have. :P
  11. What if Yue had the same reaction to sweets as Suppi?

    Imagine a Yue high off of crack. Yes, that would be what you would get. In fact, now that I think about it, that would be extremely amusing. I mean, as much as I love Yue and all... seeing him extremely hyper would be quite something. o_O; Flying around, rampaging, eating all the sweets and everything in sight. Then he would fight over all the cake with Kero-chan, and eventually they would get into a huge battle of the fates, over the cake. And they would wreak havoc, while throwing all kinds of attacks all over the place. And then Sakura would have to interfere and get in between them, and stop them before they destroy all of Tokyo by giving them... coffee. Decaf. So the bitter taste and smell will subdue them both, until they beg for mercy from the coffee! Then she will reward them with cakes (because she is always very kind), and it will start all over again.
  12. What if Sakura was a complete airhead?

    Yue wouldn't be able to stand her, first of all. :P He has no patience for airheads whatsoever. But then again, she probably wouldn't ever meet Yue, because she wouldn't be able to capture all the cards. -.-; Sakura and Kero-chan would fight all the time, and Kero-chan's hairs will all turn gray because she gives him too much stress. :P And then eventually, he will turn bald. Poor Kero-chan. What a sad fate.
  13. What if Shaolan truly loved Meiling?

    He would go to Hong Kong after all the Clow Card business was over, like usual. And then they would get married, like normal. Then Shaolan would most likely take over the Li clan, and all that jazz. And who knows what would happen to Sakura. She would most likely confess to Yukito (to be turned down) and then wait a few more years before maybe... perhaps... if at all... finding someone else meant for her. Hey, it might even give Tomoyo a chance to confess and tell Sakura of her true feelings!
  14. What if Kero-chan and the Cards were discovered by the general public?

    Sakura would become famous, of course! She would be idolized as the Card Captor saving all the world from the devastation of the cards! Every time a card would attack, news reporters and crowds would rush to the scene, and narrate along with what happened, as if it was some big action movie. And then there'd be dolls, video games, all kinds of toys made after them. However, Sakura would have to have a disguise in order to keep herself save from the mobs of fans. And there would be so many toys donated to her, Kero-chan, and the cards, that she wouldn't be able to tell the real Kero-chan from the Talking Kero-chan Stuffed Doll™. There'd be religious cults to Yue all over Japan, and not to mention! Many, many, many Sakura posers! XD They would all go around dressed up in frilly, cheap costumes, trying to catch Sakura wherever she goes. And she'd have lots of stalkers... so Shaolan would have to protect her from them all. So would Touya. XD And she'd be a super hero all over! Woohoo!

    Of course, that is only one single outcome. The other one would be, the world would react in fear! They would hear of the disaster that would befall the world with the Clow Cards, and in would come the navy, the army, and all the pink bunnies. Because people are generally stupid, they will overlook the fact that Sakura is the only one who will be able to stop the world from the disaster, and take it into their own hands. They would fire their weapons, but it would be no good. And then a secret organization would be set up, everything swirling completely out of Sakura's hands! The secret organization would be called CCNERV (Clow Card NERV) and it would come up with a giant mecha called the SWM (Sealing Wand Mecha- a giant mecha in the shape of the sealing wand) where only specified pilots would be able to move around. And then CCS would swirl out of control into a depressing, psychologically challenging anime which would make the minds of all the kids watching it spin around and around and around and around and around... @_@;
  15. What if Sakura fell into the Pokemon world?

    All of her experience with the Clow Cards will make it extremely easy for her to catch all the Pokemon in the world, and soon she will take over, only to become the evil dark mistress of all the lands~!! How will Sakura ever become evil, you ask? Well, all the Pokemon she caught will boost up her vanity, and she will soon become spoilt! Then her evil cackling will call upon the aliens in the far reaches of the galaxy (who had earlier run away from the Earth because of the giant pink bunny Kero-chan) will come and take over the Pokemon world, finally rid of the giant pink bunny Kero-chan.
  16. What if Tomoyo created a motion picture film with all her recordings?

    Poor Sakura and Shaolan would blush the whole time, and wouldn't be able to watch it, because they're so bashful. :P And because their "scenes" together will all be on tape. Tomoyo would just laugh her "Oh ho ho!" evil laugh. Yukito would like it because it would be another chance to eat food and celebrate, while Touya would be kind of pissed about it, and glare at the screen the whole time, going, "I didn't do that! Damn, that brat!" (Talking about Shaolan, of course), Fujitaka will be kind of surprised that he's in a motion picture film, as he was mostly clueless about everything having to do with the Clow Cards, and Sakura's classmates will be in awe, thinking what amazing actors Sakura and Shaolan are. :P And what will the general public think? Why, all the action will just be stunts and special effects, dontcha know?
  17. What if all the Clow Card business happened while Sakura and her friends were all in high school?

    Ohhh~! What a bundle of treasure for fan fiction writers everywhere that would be! It would be too much for those with an over active imagination. :P Perhaps we would even see Shaolan and Sakura share a kiss-uu!
  18. What if Sakura was never able to convert all the cards to Sakura Cards?

    Good night Tomoeda, and sleep tight. :P
  19. What if Eriol and Kaho never met in England?

    Kaho would never have gotten the bell that was required to give Sakura a second chance in the Last Judgment. And you know what that means! Sakura would never have a second chance, therefore everyone's memories of their most loved ones would be erased. She would've lost the Last Judgment. Then where would our CCS be? In a dark back alley in New York, searching through trash cans for fish bones. That's where it would be, my friends.
