And another case of "I only watched one season" fanwiki

In TV Tropes, the article on Big Fancy House anime cliché.

Two characters in Card Captor Sakura have big houses; the less fancy one belongs to the Kinomoto family (Sakura's dad is a famous archeologist; Mom was a famous model). Tomoyo Daidouji, being the daughter of a toy-company CEO (her mom), lives in a classic Big Fancy House; Tomoyo's bedroom is bigger than the entire second floor of Sakura's house.

Two characters, they say.

TWO.

*makes a "You'll see, you'll see" gesture to the monitor and breaks out the spampic*

Okay then, this is the Kinomoto household:



I admit it looks rather roomy for a college teacher/investigation-oriented archaeologist, and really nice for a middle class family. But pleeeeeeeeease. It doesn't stand a fucking chance.

Now Daidouji's mansion...



To this I have nothing to object, because it's the first damn thing I thought about when I read the article.

But again, TWO BIG HOUSES? Just TWO?!

Clow manor, bitches. If the Kinomoto house classifies as Big House, then this one fucking does as well.



From another angle... it's almost like a bloody castle.

But if we're talking massive, filthy rich?

And in the blue corner, from the first movie and Hong Kong...



The Li crib has it going on~!

So well. Does the Kinomoto house still classify, or will it get knocked down by these two giants? Stay tuned. More after these messages.

The whole second movie was a thing of WTF. I think owning the whole hill is the best explanation.

I'm pretty sure that archaelogists are only famous in their own circle unless they find out something ridiculously huge. I can't think of anyone more or less modern right now, hmmm...

But even if they find something, people outside the circle will only know about the discovery. They're not going to remember the guys' names. College students majoring in that and academics, yeah. Anyone else, don't think so. Not even the ones who read National Geographic, mind you.
