Bishôjo Senshi Sailor Moon (2003)
Hilarious!
What I find absolutely hilarious is that in the anime their legs are so long, and their bodies so short, yet in real life it's the other way round, so when they're in their senshi costumes they are so out of proportion it's funny! I laugh every time I see them.
I think it's interesting seeing a live action series of Sailor Moon made. I'm still trying to come to terms with the fact that their hair is all black and dark brown in real life, and only changes when they transform...that is odd but understandable...
I also love the way that Luna is portrayed as a stuffed toy, and also the way that they can take photographs of models and transform into them. Wish I could do that!
Sailor Moon (1995)
Sailor Moon ROCKS!!!
WARNING: REFERENCE TO AN EPISODE. IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED IT AND DON'T WANT IT SPOILED, DON'T READ THIS REVIEW! I absolutely love Sailor Moon! I absolutely hate it when people say 'it's for babies' and won't change their opinion even when you say it's not! It's so romantic, as well as being full of action that immediately captures your interest. For that matter, I have an aunt in her forties and she adores Sailor Moon.
I hate it when people say that the English dubbed version is rubbish, because that's the version I watched it in and I prefer it to the Japanese version any day. The only annoying thing is that the characters' voices keep changing.
The music is immense. I can just hear Rainy Day Man in my head right now (it's my fave SM song). The transformation tunes are so catchy and really hold your attention. And I love the transformation sequences.
My favorite character has got to be Lita/Makoto, probably because she's easiest to relate to. Okay, some of you may not agree with me but if you think about it logically: -Serena and Mina are fare too ditzy and clumsy to be humanely possible. It sometimes gets really annoying listening to them being so incredibly stupid.
-Amy, although nice, is far too smart for me. I frankly do not understand how anyone could spend so much time in the library. She's one of those characters with exaggerated cleverness, as well as the exaggerated ability to spend hours poring over books. Most clever people that I know have a decent sense of fun as well. Not that she doesn't, but hers is so limited it's hardly there.
-Rei is constantly arguing with Usagi, and frankly a lot of the time I start thinking she is rather selfish and thinks too highly of herself. This probably isn't true in the end but she certainly acts like it! -Lita, on the other hand. She's sensible and clever enough and has a good sense of fun, can have a fiery temper but not constantly, and cares about other people. I mean, the others do too but in my opinion it seems to stand out more in Lita. Yeah, she's definitely my fave.
Not to mention my fave episode is 43, A Knight to Remember. And that contains a LOT of Lita. I find it so sweet, the story of Lita and Ken, and it really brings out the caring side of Serena when she pleads for Jupiter to go home and rest from the blood transfusion rather than fight. Jupiter comes back wonderfully by saying she has to get the monster before it attracts other people, JUST LIKE IT DID TO KEN. It just goes to show the strong bonds of their friendship, soo sweet!!! Anyway I think I've been rambling on enough so I'm going to stop here. Definitely 10/10 for incredibleness!
