Cardcaptor Sakura - episode 2

Sakura is still coming to grips with the new reality she suddenly found herself in. This includes getting used to Kero and his comandeering presence, ever reminding her of her role as a card captor. Kero makes a big deal of keeping his existence a closely-guarded secret, meant to be kept only between the two of them. This measure applies equally to the Clow Cards and their powers. Still, when Sakura's favourite camcorder-toting friend Maddison (Tomoyo in other versions) inqueries her about her last night's exploits, Kero just decides to pop out and say hello. No reason why he shouldn't have, as Maddison didn't require much explaining to learn about the Clow Cards and how a tiny yellow animal capable of self-propelled flight is also in possession of speech faculties. Maybe this makes sense; if a set of magical cards can cause mysterious occurrances to happebn and give power to its user, a tiny talking creature isn't so far-fetched after all.

Maddison also proves to be quite useful in the card collecting business, coming up with solutions to entrap the card's spirit. It's also here where we get a first glimpse at Maddison's welathy background: pressed by Kero to go to school at night to investigate the shenanigans of the Shadow card, Maddison arrives in a transit van, scouted by a bevy of beauties who also happen to be bodyguards. As best I ca determine, Maddison finds fascinating in everything that Sakura does, and what better way to retain the élan of all of those precious moments than record them on camera? She's also assigns herself the role of providing Sakura with a suitable battle dress whenever she's about to caputure a Clow Card. Our heroine might be a bit reluctant to don some of her friend's fashion statements, but Kero absolutely loves it! He is always eager to try on new costumes and Maddison has no problem indulging him in his wardrobe tastes.

This is Kero voiced in the Nelvana version of Card Captors and, personally, I find him more amusing with this voice-aciting. His boisterous and loud attitude jives in perfectly with his informal deportment. The other dub is also decent in keeping close to the original version, but giving Kero a personality that matches his unrestrained never hurt anyone's feelings
