The CGI isn't that bad. Now, Shaft's CGI for mekaku city actors, that was bad.
The problem here is that it stands out too much.
Please understand.

Never watched the original anime, but the new transformation is far better than the old one. How is a well done CGI animation worse than 2d stock footage? I don't understand you MAL...


It's mal.

MAL rules:
Everything cgi is evil.
Everything progressive is evil. God forbid someone adds same sex relationships to the show.
Characters showing human emotions makes them whiny. Especially if they are female.
For character to be cool he/she has to be sociopath with no human empathy nor logical human reactions to its surroundings.
If the show does not have moe or lolis its not a good show.
If its not an overrated LN adaptation. Its not a good show.

It's better suited for an upbeat cutesy show like that, but Sailor Moon had a softer feminine charm to it.


Considering the original true sailor moon, not counting messed up anime adaptation, is still one of the most gender-norm-breaking things japan ever written, that's okay.

The transformation has to be elegant, not really "feminine". We have girls dressing like boys, girls dressing like girls, girls liking girls, girls liking boys, girls liking both, boys transforming into girls and vice-versa, etc.

The scout transformations draw inspiration from tokusatsu shows and shonen genre. It IS supposed to be brash and energetic. The scouts do not throw pretty hearts at villains or redeem them(despite what previous adaptation tried to show you)with love - they stab you with swords and kill the fuck out of you with elemental attacks.


How is this even sort of true?

Mal is in love with ufotable who throw CGI in everything.

Get off your fanboy soap box and calm the fuck down.

I think I will always love the old one. I was excited to hear it was CGI and how the creators wanted to do it so they could move freely around them as they transform, but I have mixed feelings. For example, when did her arms and legs get so... long and flexible? I did like parts like the 3D effect when she twirls and her tiara appears. I just keeping thinking how the other senshi will look. Very cautious.

No metter what they do, the old will always be better. I'm sorry, I can see they tried, but the old one is a classic. I was wondering if I should even watch this new version since I'm an old fan. I will watch it but all the CGI and the new music....I don't know...What was wrong with Moon Desentsu? It was great, they should have just made a cover.... Yes, I am biased towards the old one :D


Momoiro Clover Z did do a cover, it's on the tribute album, and it's mediocre at best. They definitely would need a different artist to have kept Moonlight Densetsu.

I prefer old one to be honest.It feels more classy and doesn't use bad CGI.

Go watch Sidonia no Kishi or Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio.Even Fate/Zero had some good CGI moments.

I feel the same way. It just isn't Sailor Moon without it. Just once would be enough. Perhaps they will use it at the very last episode for dramatic impact like how the original Sailor Moon ended.

Only in mal would a top of the line computer animation procedure would be considered "cheaper" as 2d stock footage.Only in mal.


Anyway, the comparisons do not really matter since we will see the sequence itself once maybe twice through the whole show - same for the others.


3D is cheaper and less time consuming than animating by hand. The CGI they used looked like shit, the Ultimate Ninja Storm games look better than that. The actual animation was good, just wish it was hand drawn.

You know what, given the fact that it was Toei and the fact that they are in charge of the Precure shows, I'd expect them to have really good CG, I mean Precure ending CG is just so much better at least it looks a bit more realistic. The way they animated Usagi is just bad, I don't know if its because she looks skinnier than a barbie doll or what, but its just a little to unappealing for my standards, but its definitely not the worse CG I've seen.

The CGI transformation was actually pretty good!! Even though i wish they made it 2D like what Precure does and only do CGI when using a new attacks or so.

Though i love the added small details like Usagi's nail's being sparkly and how you can still see her White Pantsu during the transformation while in the old one she's already dress out of nowhere etc.

Though i do wonder why Toei has been making a lot of CGI's in their Mahou anime's. I know it started in Fresh Precure, but i really love the 2D Animation much better just to be consistent with the whole episode.

I know people will complained about the CGI transformations, but you'll get used to it like i did in Precure.

Hard to choose, but i'll go with New just to balance the votes :P

I like Usagi's transformation better in 90s series, but that's also because of Arisawa's background music which is really memorable.

As for Ami, her transformation seems more noticeable in Crystal.
