As for CCS in 1080p, eww. Even if it did exist (or does in upscales) I doubt it would look good at all. It's not a show that would benefit from having 1080p remasters or upscales. It's fine in 720p
As already linked, Sakura-Sanctuary has released episode 1 BD. KAA has also released the first 2 episodes and are moving extremely slow at it. Hopefully Sakura will be able to release a little faster than KAA.

I doubt u watched alot of anime in 1080p quality but I can't judge that without knowing for sure.
Some examples that generate great substantial quality changes includes gundam 00, code geass R1 and R2, full metal panic, and even snow white.
Plainly speaking, it's fine to have better quality for shows that were made in 1998.

I've seen enough anime in 1080p to know which series can probably benefit from having it and which don't. Your examples of Gundam 00 and Code Geass are kind of pointless considering they had HD releases from the start (R2 did anyway). A series has the potential of looking better upscaled to 1080p if it's coming from a 720p source rather than if it's coming from an outdated DVD source, or an upscaled BD release which I'm pretty sure Full Metal Panic was (I could be wrong though...they may have remastered it for the BD release).
I don't have to watch 1080p anime anyway to be able to tell that going by the screenshots you've posted so far, they are pretty bad looking. I'll agree it's fine to have better quality versions of old shows such as Cardcaptor Sakura, but the keyword there is BETTER quality. Just taking Cardcaptor Sakura and making upscaling it to a better resolution doesn't mean it is going to be better quality, which I don't think your 1080p upscales are. I think KAA's 720p BD rips trump them by far.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution
According to the wikipedia page talking about Display resolution,"accepting a 1920×1080 input on a display with a native 1366×768 pixel array"
would require your resolution to be changed according what benefits the actual size. Not everyone that has a computer can get a monitor that can display
1080p videos on the best scale. Scaling down to the native pixel would give the true graphics of the video.
ClassickxD:
I mildly disagree, although the screenshots doesn't provide an adequate view for the video itself, it surely shows that theres a version of cardcaptor sakura which I surely but truely proved my point. Also taking screenshots from a laptop that can only have a resolution of 1440 x 900 potentially limits the graphic capability the video can show. I got the download from another legitimate website but I'm sure it's been tested to be a passing grade for it to be uploaded on torrent.

Link the right article next time. Who cares what your screen resolution is; we want the image at source resolution, i.e. 1440x1080. We want to know what the image will look like on a screen that can display the image at its native resolution, and not downscaled to a monitor that cannot.
If you want to offer an encode for smaller monitors, make a downscaled SD version (like Dragon80 does). Don't make a 1080p offer, it looks terrible.
And no, if it looks terrible downscaled, I don't think it'll look much better at native resolution.
ClassickxD:
Surely the video would look better at 1440x1080 source resolution but I can't tested it without a 19" monitor or greater. It's also quite fine seeing an anime at 1080p with downscaled resolution since it doesn't affect the quality tremendously.
