Well? Who thought it was one of the greatest magical girl series out there? Anyone?

I've only heard of a couple, "Wedding Peach", "Pretty Sammy", "Card Captor". I hafta agree that Sailormoon did pretty much define that genre, however I thought Magic Knight Rayearth was pretty good too.

oh man. this is a hard question for me now after seeing Princess Tutu (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1267)

for like 6 years i had SM like in my personal top 5 of all time. (sometimes robotech would take 1st for a few months lol) but then i saw princess tutu and just...wow. >.<

i still love sm though cause i saw it for years, recorded every single episode ever aired by toonami, and saw every episode like 14x over during the endless re-runs. i would never miss it. i still love all the chars and their personalities. BUT. damn that princess tutu. it's my new number 1 is all i can say.

I'm still huge fan of SM series.

wtf i ain't dancing in space u guys r on drugs shame on

Sailor Moon Rocks!!

QFT = Quoted for Truth

I personally love Sailor Moon and both Magic Knight Rayearth, I would love to see more like it but lawl nowadays it's hard to find stuff of the same quality as Sailor Moon ;-;

watch naruto !

Sailor Moon>Naruto. And I dont even watch SM

QFT = Quoted for Truth



Thanks I thought it ment something else. Im Bad!!


sd :)

yup sailor moon is awesome <3 I used to be so obsessed with it when I was a kid... Well.. I'm still pretty obsessed lol

I really enjoyed watching sailor moon when it was on the air in my area.

But i really liked the Super S series

I never got to see the Stars series.

My ex-girlfriend had a lof of sailor moon manga books. and one year i got her some small sailor moon figures for her b-day.

which look pretty neat.

I have to agree Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon has to be the B E S T <3 Magical Girl seires out there
but it's hardly seen on TV anymore ; _ ; and the mangas are reeeeealy hard to get hold off

Its sad, but true. Theres been very little of the same quality since then.

in terms of magical girl, i think that Sailor Moon has been the only series i've seen, but i did enjoy it!

I was into Sailor Moon when I was but a wee lad. Not so much anymore though.

Sailormoon is a fun series, at best.
As it has been mentioned earlier, it's safe to say that it defined the "magical girl" genre.
It's a shame that the "DiC incident", coupled with cultural differences (even though I stopped watching after the dubbed R arc, I heard that they started using ridiculous terms like "phat"...any word on that?) has damaged the franchise beyond repair.
The only other anime that has stood out in this genre is Magic Knights Rayearth.
Has CLAMP ever made anything that flopped?

Sailor Moon was one of the first things that hooked me on Anime. Haven't watched an episode in years, but I still love the series. Wish I could've seen Stars to end the series.

I liked Leena from Slayers...at least, i think that was her name...

I miss it dearly. T_T And I'm glad they're not really airing Tokyo Mew Mew anymore, that was a ridiculous hack of it.

Sailor Moon was the first anime I ever saw and I loved it. But as you can see in my name, ava, and sig, Cutie Honey is my favorite magical girl series.

I miss it dearly. T_T And I'm glad they're not really airing Tokyo Mew Mew anymore, that was a ridiculous hack of it.

Only because 4Kids TV butchered it for the young kids.

Veoh appears to have all the episode in subs if one isn't partial to the dubs. Have to download a client though but it's no big deal.

I watched it and enjoyed it.
Sailor Moon was the first anime I ever watched.

it was a lot of people's first anime. It grew to be such a hype in Japan in people of all ages, but the US and EU tv peoples just casted it off as another kid's show... XD they got what they deserved in Supers with Haruka and Michiru!

'Okay then, let us watch another series of Sailor Moon and see what needs editing'

* 2 episodes later*

'...O_O how the frick are we going to cover this up!?' XDXDXDXD

i love the kitty!

I think in the dub they made Luna too serious and Artemis too dumb. They are both serious and dumb, but they're humourus about it.

If you like luna you should watch the 2nd movie: Hearts In Ice. I won't spoil what happens, but if you like Luna... you'll love it! ^_^

I have no idea what you mean by that. . .
. .

:-D I remember when Sailor Moon used to run on USA's Cartoon Train Express(or whatever it was called). One day it suddenly 'stopped showing'. I guess Haruka and Michiru's real relationship pretty much explained why it happened.

If SM fans don't already know, there's a Sailor Moon RPG Rom in English.

The studios that broadcasted and dubbed Sailor Moon editting the episodes to hell, to the point where some weren't even shown. They changed the gender of a lot of people to cover up things they thought 'unsuitable' e.g. Zoicite was changed to a woman to cover up his and Kunzite's relationship, Zironcia was changed into a man (for which reason, i still don't know) and the Stars arc was never dubbed because of the Starlight's gender changing, lol.


I've got the Rom for BSSM Another Story, is that the one you mean?

It was my first ever, but it wasn't what got me onto Anime really CCS did bbecause I was older and understood it. I wouldn't mind watching SM completely if I had the chance though.

Though I've read quite a bit about it, and seen clips, there's nothing about it so far that's interested me much. Still, I guess I should give it a proper chance by watching a few of the episodes at some point - before completely making my mind up.

Haha. I had a crush on Tuxedo Mask.

Yeah. Ami's solo adventure still leaves a sour taste in my mouth. That has to be one of the most annoying boss fights ever in a RPG!

Ah yes, Sailor Moon. This is the series that really got me into Anime. I still to this day can't get enough of the series. I just recently started watching Stars, and right now im on episode 8. Damn shame we'll never see Stars dubbed.

personally, I'm glad they never dubbed Stars... not if it was going to turn into something it quite clearly isn't ( for example: it's so obvious Zirconia was a woman...so why try make her a man!?).


Ami's solo adventure still leaves a sour taste in my mouth. That has to be one of the most annoying boss fights ever in a RPG!

God, you're preaching to the choir XD no matter how much you leveled up...that boss STILL took an hour to kill lol.

I just wanted to see how they would work around the Sailor Starlights.

I really liked Sailor Moon when it first came out. I watched most of the episodes then. I really liked the episodes with Sailor Neptune in them. But then I watched the Japanese originals and was mad at how much they cut out and changed. Of course I know they did that cause of showing on tv here in America but damn alot was really overkill I think. But that was just me.

I really like the series though. It was the first series that made me really want to get the mangas for and start collecting stuff.

Sailor Moon-my first anime. Brings back memories.
The anime is great.

I think they'd try to pass their diguises off as female :/... D: what would they change the names to!?

We'll most likely never know, seeing as the english license has lapsed, and Toei has no plans of allowing it to be renewed.

I remember watching it every morning before I went to school and then after school during Toonami. Those were the days..Man I wish Sailor Stars was released in the US like how Media Blasters are doing their sub only DVD releases..It was like the best season, well at least for me. ^^; Man I need to rewatch the series in Japanese...

I managed to get the last Manga volume, last 2 Super S DVDs, the three movies in English VHS, Sailor Moon cards (from a cousin) and the Sailor Moon figure before the license expired. D:

Manga Ending > Anime Ending

Despite the happy ending, I feel that the manga ending was better..GRRR..Chibi Chibi is supposed to be Sailor Cosmos. >.< In the anime she was like some random gal who came from the futureeez. Why didn't they put the Amazon Quartet and more Chibiusa in this season? D:

Oh no, whatever will we do without them mutilating the SM episodes? XD

Well, we also won't see the uncut subbed versions in the U.S either. Now that's a downer. IMPORT!

I'd much rather buy them from Japan than watch the dubs.

I'd much rather buy them from Japan than watch the dubs.

Another option is to just download them from a Torrent, subbed.

Do you know how big all 200 episodes are?! 37 gigabytes! That and it takes aaaaages to download...which is even more annoying when you find out that they're the french subs :c

I was just talking about the Stars series... The ones I downloaded were all english subs. You can very easily get the subbed versions of R-Super S in America.

There's another problem, I live in England XD which is about as far away from Anime as accountancy is an extreme sport.

I should have been more specific. They're pretty much available in any english speaking country. I mean Sailor Moon did air in the U.K. But if you can't find them, there's always purchasing them online. All you have to do is get the uncut dubbed versions, and then you have the option of either watching them dubbed or subbed.

really? o.O I'll have to look more carefully next time, lol.

Sailor Moon was my introduction to anime. I still luvs it.

Well? Who thought it was one of the greatest magical girl series out there? Anyone?

I definately thought it was the best magical girl series out there ;). Sailor Moon is my all time favorite and first anime. And if that never changed after all these 13 years, I doubt that it will.

My favorite Sailor Solder is Sailor Jupiter/Kino Makoto:

Yes of course...Sailor Moon will ever be an all time favourite!
I remember the times in germany.
A tv channel called rtl2 shows that anime in the year 1999 ^^
I loved it!

Yeah I also remember back in '95 when Sailor Moon was always on channel 13 out here in the U.S. when the channel was called "U.P.N." back then.

It was always sucky how I couldn't really see much of it other wise I'd be late for school :(. I'll never forget those days.

In this case I had a video recorder.
After school I could watch the latest episode 8)

Same here! I couldn't watch it because of the time slot. I would always miss it because of school. Luckily, I recorded it, so I never missed an episode. =]

I never got to see the Stars series.

Toei have made their stance on this pretty clear: While everyone else got a dub of StarS America won't. Goodness knows why.

i got really lucky last year during christmass time while i visited the old mall where i used to live. theres a small shop there owned by these asian folk (can't figure out exact race) but i'll guess viet. anyway. the guy there gets a lot of good anime/game memorbilia and episodes and stuff.

well to make the long story short. he fking had the entire complete season of StarS subbed. :D great quality too. 30something eps. 4 dvd's. all fit in regular size dvd case. region 1 too. otherwise i wouldn't have been able to play it.

not sure where he got it though. just fuck teoi or whoever and find region 1 from anywhere else. (or whatever region you are)

You can find StarS easily on ebay I think.

You could find StarS easily on ebay I think.

Yeah you can. I've seen them on DVD in box sets even. I've also seen all the four previous seasons on DVD on ebay.

toonami stopped showing, taking sailor moon along with it. that's when i stopped showing interest in anime. sailor moon was the only one that i had fun watching. >:

Well? Who thought it was one of the greatest magical girl series out there? Anyone?

I did. Matter of fact Sailor Moon is my favorite anime of all time.

Im not trying to be funny but I herd in the japanese version two of them where homosexual, Is this true?

Sailor Neptune and Uranus are lesbian lovers. In the dubbed version, they are 'cousins'. . .*cough!*

Lol ok usa is truley a fcc proving ground, My favorite one was uranus....ah well any other interesting facts?

Everything there is to know about Sailor Moon. Don't worry, the site is perfectly safe. I say that because with the "uncensored" thing in there ppl might get the wrong idea, lol.

haha it was so wierd cause i found sailor uranus (the blond tomboy right?) somewhat attractive. D: and i'm straight ... i guess it's cause at the time, i didn't know what is the definition of the term "lesbian" haha. i was only in elementary so yea ...

...

You and me both pal. You have nothing to be ashamed of. XD Of course she looks like a major hotty in her Sailor outfit but not as sweet as Neptune. Neptune is a fox. :naughty:

THANK YOU ARCADE LOL.
I wonder what 13 girls would have thought about this...
oh which one was the blue one with the bubbles? pluto? I got uranus mixed up...lol thats funny when you say it out loud
HA!

HA!

The one with the bubbles is Mercury (Ami Mizuno), Pluto is the one with the staff and that lucious green long hair (Setsuna Meioh) Uranus is the tall one (Haruka Tenoh). I used to watch the show all the time. Does anybody remember when the dub appeared on "Toonami" and the "USA Cartoon Express"? *sighs* good times, I lol'ed at the fact that when SMS appeared on Toonami they tried to call Uranus and Neptune cousins. I mean c'mon, what the hell man. XD

i'm glad the "lesbian" term did not influence me in the wrong way when i was little lol. i swear to god i remember sailor moon having a crush on uranus. am i right?

first anime I watched along with dragon ball z on cartoon network...

in elementary school back in the day I remember we used to play a game and pretend we were the characters from the show, and everyone used to fight over who was sailor moon XD

oh childhood

haha i remember i wanted to be sailor jupiter

Hot Tamales it was the other way around Uranus (Haruka) would occasionally hit on Usagi and she would blush everytime. :) She knew she liked it, everytime it happened Usagi didn't even think of her man Tuxedo Mask. Poor Neptune though... shame on Haruka for thinking about cheating on her girlfriend with a middle school student. Hehe.

Ah now that I remember Dragon Ball Z did used to come on after Sailor Moon. That was another ground breaking show. Cartoon Network and Toonami used to have some kick-ass cartoons/anime. When I look at them then, and I look at them now I can't help but think... what happened?!! o_O

aaaaaaahh yeeesssssssss. i've always known uranus was bad news haha. omg i think i just realized why my parents kept trying to keep me away from watching sailormoon. i think it was cause they realized uranus and neptune are lezziesss!!!!!!

yeah seriously ^^ other than a few good ones on adult swim...

hahah and yeah I was always the rebel who wanted to be sailor jupitor. she seemed like the non boy crazy type, the other like air headed characters annoyed me. but man, lol I had no idea about all the like lesbian characters, 8 year olds don't catch on too well...

For sure they totally Lezzy out on that show, most of the time you see them they are flirting. ^^;


yeah seriously ^^ other than a few good ones on adult swim...

hahah and yeah I was always the rebel who wanted to be sailor jupitor. she seemed like the non boy crazy type...

You must not have seen the eps where Jupes went ga-ga over the boy who works at the arcade and the super gamer with phsyco powers, Jupiter was goofy boy crazy over them, even in her first appearance too. I remember the line she always used - "he reminds me of my last boyfriend" she says that about just about every other tall dark ladies man who has ever stood before her. In some of the later episodes she gets a little more serious but even still if a guy handsome enough walks by her she will usually throw herself at him or gossip about him with the others. Jupiter is still my girl though, not only can she cook (my kinda lady) she is one of the only Sailor Soldiers that can fight. That girl can really brawl when it comes to the martial arts.

The only ones who are not boy crazy, are, Mercury since she is all about studying and getting straight A's in school. Besides she is too shy to ask someone out. Cute little ol' Ami. :) Pluto because... well... as cool as she is, a loyal member of the Moon Kingdom she is way too gloomy to be into guys like the others are. Saturn is a no go because she is way too shy, and Neptune and Uranus just like girls.

ah shows how much I know haha. it's been awhile...give or take like 8 years so
I'm not surprised lol

Dang, your right that show sure is past it's anniversary isn't it? After all the original Japanese version came out in 1992 and they dubbed in '94 I think it was. Yikes! That's a long time.

I wish Sailor Moon would come back on. XD

dang, for me, it was 9 years ago. after it was taken out, i was like "anime sucks now that it's not on". >:
haha i remember getting a sailor moon lunchbox when i was in the 3rd grade.

Tamales, chill out, im jokin...or am i ??

I am so glad I'm not american

If I had grown up with the horrible dubs I would have probably not watched all 200 episodes

one of the oldest anime, i think. . the girls here are really cute. .

haha i remember i wanted to be sailor jupiter

I remember I wanted Sailor Jupiter.

haha how fantastic

i recall sort of disliking chibi-moon. she's whiny, at least i think so, according to my failing memory lol.

Magical girl Pretty Sammy status?

transformation sequences ftw?


(these non-sequiters confuse me)

haha how fantastic

i recall sort of disliking chibi-moon. she's whiny, at least i think so, according to my failing memory lol.

I don't think anyone really liked her. She made 'Usagi Moments' look pretty darn good.

no offense but i nv liked the anime...felt weird to me lolz...

Oh yeah. I still remember this series. Heck I still have a few episodes on VHS in my house somewhere. Hotaru/Sailor Saturn is my favorite of all of them. Mainly because of the power to silence the solar system. I also have a crush on her that still exists to this day.

Yay! I Sailor Moon thread ^__^
Has anyone here read the manga?

I guess being a boy doesn't mean I can't watch this anime, can I?

This one is definitely one of the classic anime of the 90s. Many others anime tried to emulate the transformation sequence ever since. (Until lolicon came in.)

By the way, why does the S version seem to be more beautifully drawn than the others or even the first season? All of my friends like S season because of this.

One reason why I love S.

-Neptune & Uranus LOVE
-Sailor Saturn The Soldier of Ruin
-Witches 5
-Kaorinite

Okay so that's many reasons, who's counting?

maybe the animators liked doing uranus and neptune so they did a better job overall. lol >__<

I hate the fact that people don't like sailor moon because they feel that there's too much of that type of anime. but sailor moon is like one of the first! and the best.. hehe

Well put.

I'm a guy and I like Sailor Moon. It was one of the main anime's I watched along side Dragonball Z back in the day. I don't go for the "Type of Show" stuff. If the show interest me, I watch it.

I'm also currently reading the Manga.

Currently rewatching the series, but the original Jap this time.

Looking back, I am amazed at how much the english version was changed. In fact, I don't remember them addressing Serena as 14! I'd also have to say the Jap intro trumps the English version as well. Seriously... what the fuck is with the role call in the middle of the damned song?! Bah... BAH!

OMG! I love Sailor Moon! I watch it every week when I was yound and Im still watching it (sometimes). I know how most people here say DIC ruined the most classic, popular and best Magical Girl franchise ever, I feel the same way too when I saw the Original two years ago and though to myself (WHAAAAIIIIIIIII- Why, why would DIC and Cloverway do this!)

There is too much editing, cutting, accent, gender change and slang in the dub...tooooooo much! If Japanese people watched the dub.....its baaaaad news

Side note: Though the USA did the dubbing, editing, music etc. it was Canada that did the voices.

I would like to say:
Bishojou Senshi Sera Mun overpowers Sailor Moon (talking about the original/dub overall)

BSSM Seiyuu overpowers SM Voice actress' (talking about the go/5 nin Sera Senshi/Sailor Scouts)

Man, Sailor Moon was like my very first anime as well! =) I used to watch the chinese version of it, but I never finished the first season (due to being young and not knowing when it was aired ....-.-) However, I started watching it again a few years ago (about 1-2 yrs). From Season 1 until the very last episode!! (of course the jap version.. totally hate the english dub :/).

Tbh, I completely cried during the couple of days rushing through 1-200 episodes. I dunno.. I thought Usagi was just soo kind .. etc! Anyone that did not watch Star series should do so!! Loved it!

Haha when i was a kid, i saw sailor-moon too. even as a boy hehehe girl-poooower :D

I�m a guy too, and I love Sailor Moon. This anime is part of my childhood alongside Saint Seiya, Dragonball series, Magic Knight Rayearth and other animes.

I downloaded the complete series.

No Magical Girl genre anime can compare with Sailor Moon, because Sailor Moon is superior.

Sailormoon is indeed nice to watch at. I thought at first it was boring but after watching the live action movie then I am hooked with the story of it

I know by admitting this I am totally de-closeting myself but I have always been a SM fan. Love the manga, hate edited show. But I absolutely despised Chibimoon to the highest degree. She was the most annoying character ever introduced (Zidane is number two in my books). But I digress, Uranus was my favorite... it's a pitty she really was a girl. ;)

This is all I liked about this show.

Haha when i was a kid, i saw sailor-moon too. even as a boy hehehe girl-poooower :D

Being male doesn't prohibit you from watching something that centers mainly around a female cast. Sailor Moon was actually one of the first animes I ever saw, and I loved it the whole way through. Of course, I only ever saw the English version, so I kind of gather that seeing it in Japanese (if I knew a word of Japanese) would make it feel a bit more natural.

Sailor Moon IS one of the better series to come out of Japan in the last decade. Sailor Moon's animation is very much of its time. I really,recommend this series, enjoy!

You hear that Toei is trialling a remastered version in Italy? If it's successful then they may roll it out again, and it may be redubbed. I hope Funimation gets it.

Love Sailor Moon , its the Moon in Moontrekker :)

It was a long time ago.
Now i don't wathing

I grew up with Sailor Moon, I love the music in it, so good

I remember Sailor Moon, I liked to look back in 1995 on the LAN. I was not happy when he was removed from the air. I was so happy when he came on Cartoon Network, and then the rest of the season, and Sailor Moon S and Sailor Moon extras.

anyone have any of the music? My wife and I have the Full Moon Collection in MP3...

Troof:

I DID! I thought it was the best then and it really set the bar for magical girl anime! ...and, she's still the best! ^_^

I thoroughly enjoyed Sailor Moon as a kid (yeah, I'm a guy) even though parts of it was kind of corny (moon power!). Now that I'm older, I find the series funny and realize how close it is to Sentai shows like Power Rangers (random bad guy of the episode, scouts/ranger kill it, rinse, repeat). Finding a Sailor Moon collection with dual audio is definitely on my to-do list so I can continue to relive and enjoy my childhood.

PS: Yeah, Chibi was pretty irritating...

Sailor Moon....All I can say is it shaped part of my childhood and I still watch it today. In fact, for Christmas I got my grandparents to give me the cash for my Sailor Moon tattoo.

Who's ready for Sailor Moon to come back into print next month!? I'm so excited! And that Italian Sailor Moon videogame....hope it comes out in english or we make our own version of it! =DDD

Thank you Kodansha for reprinting Sailor Moon! I'm going to start buying manga again next month!

For all those who wanted Episodes of Sailor Moon, try thepiratebay.com or btjunkie. Both in English and Japanese torrents. And if you are worried about the size of the files get a converter like WinFF. It's very simple to run video files through it and it not only spits out any quality, but also VERY VERY VERY SMALL files so you can delete the original gigantic files and keep the tiny ones to fit more anime on your computer =]

Doesn't look like anyone's really discussed any of the new English Kodansha manga releases yet. They're the same art as the Japanese re-release from some time ago. So far both issues of Sailor V and Sailor Moon 1+2 have been released. I sat down with the first volume of the new SM release and the first volume of the old Tokyopop/Chix Comix version (I totally have those on hand :awsm:) I went through and found a ton of differences to the art. Some backgrounds were changed, nearly every panel had been traced and redrawn, translation was different and other minor details here and there. I think the new art irks me a bit. The lines look too thick compared to the old releases. I like that "light" look the original had.

The other thing that I questioned before the release is why the volumes were fewer. They tacked on parts of the next volumes to the ends of the volumes before them thereby shortening the number of volumes. It does make more sense the way they did that. I approve of that change.


Oh ya NEWS FLASH to everyone! Hot Topic is selling SM merchandise! :awsm:

I love this anime! One of my favorite anime! ^^

I loved that show so much, I have to rewatch it some time.

I love Pretty Soldier Sailormoon: Manga, anime, musicals and even the live action.
That 2013 version is going to be great! I hope so...

It's definitely one of the greatest.

Most likely they'll just use the original scores and rerecord them with cleaner, newer, equipment and band.


Also:
Saw Sailor Moon manga at Hastings yesterday.
The new ones, maybe?

It was VERY weird seeing them for sale.

Me too, Michiru Ōshima did a good job but Arisawa did an excellent job. That's right, he really understanded SM.
Seiji Yokoyama is a great option too: Saint Seiya main series.

The new manga is beautiful. I don't own it and have only looked at it, but it's beautiful.

Most likely they'll just use the original scores and rerecord them with cleaner, newer, equipment and band.


Also:
Saw Sailor Moon manga at Hastings yesterday.
The new ones, maybe?

Yes, I think it's possible. The new Rurouni Kenshin movie also did like that.

Really? ! I still haven't got any furhter information about the new thing now. T_T

Michiru Ōshima is a great composer. I saw some animes which she worked on, such as Miracle Girls and Fullmetal Alchemist. She worked on the SM TV Drama, and the music was good. Maybe she can be a good choice.
Seiji Yokoyama is great too, but it seems that he hasn't been active for a long time. Has he retired?
