Pioneer has all the rights to the only dubbed version of Cardcaptor Sakura. Which is Cardcaptors. They already made one dubbed version, and I'm pretty sure they're not gonna get everyone (the voice actors) back around just to re-do the scenes that were cut. If they did bring back all the scenes that were cut, they would have to rewrite the whole script and redub everything again. I don't think any other companies would want to buy Cardcaptor Sakura from Pioneer just to do an uncut dub either. It doesn't look like it'd be worth the trouble, since the sub is already great. The current kids that dub Cardcaptors don't sound like their characters. How many subs with cute-little girls, stay as cute little girls in the dubs? I've never heard a good cute little girl dub. Even if they hire brand-new dubbers, that would be even more trouble. And the sub will still sound better anyways. Not just the voices either. The soundtrack has made a huge change from Cardcaptor Sakura to the current Cardcaptors. It doesn't keep the same feeling or emotions. The songs are Ok, but they change the mood way too much. Is Pioneer the worst at dubbing anime?
If there was going to be a good un-cut dub of Cardcaptor Sakura, it would have to be done from scratch. Brand-new. Not affiliated with the current Cardcaptors or even Pioneer in anyway. I think they should give Cardcaptor Sakura to ADV, cause they do great dubs most of the time. Or maybe Manga. Cause Carcaptor Sakura doesn't seem like an ADV anime. Manga did Ok with Magic Knight Rayearth, so I'm sure they could do great Cardcaptor Sakura. You could expect a great English remake of Catch You Catch Me too.
