EPisode 2 of Crystal was something like EPisode 8 or 10 of previous adaptation, with fillers in between. Crystal is also considerably far more serious so far Mamoru/Tuxedo Mask's role is entirely different so far too. Next episode will be entirely different from previous adaptation |

If you haven't seen the 90' Anime I highly recommend to watch the Japanese uncut version + subs, the Movies included. It was one of my childhood Animes. Slayers, Dragon Ball, Digimon etc. being the others. It was stated, the reboot follows the Manga more closely, like with Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. The only differences are some few sentences or scenes, that where either altered or not included. Still the adaptation is almost identical to the Manga as for now. The only new stuff, that we can expect are materials, that Takeuchi hasn't/couldn't add into her Manga. As for the old Anime it has more comedy aspects, though most of the plot branches away to either fillers, or the main story with major or minor differences, than the Manga. The attacks are different, the characteristic and relations of the girls vary more than in the Manga. The Senshi power Up's differs compared to the Manga too. |

| Ami's transformation is sooo much more dynamic and overall better-looking than Usagi's ! If they can pull this off with the rest of the senshi then I might be perfectly fine with it. Anyway, another good episode, that I also enjoyed thanks to nico nico's stupid ass comments. |

| I love it x3! Ami appeared and is so cute! also more soundtrack for my ears~ her transfomation scente was unexptected, was fast, clean and better than Usagi one. Also lol, Mamoru unconsciously is Usagi's face can XD snif, no wanna wait 14 days for the next episode, pls be 7 like the others ;-; |
| great episode. getting used to the cg transformations again love the soundtrack unfortunate that despite it being bi-weekly there are so many inconsistencies aside from the quality at times really enjoying it. rei next episode |

| Not that bad episode, though that quality hurts my eyes... Ami looks fine, her new seiyuu is better than I thought actually. Such a soft and cute voice! Sounds kinda like younder Hisakawa for me, seriously lol. Another CGI transformation was okayish, but it's still hard to get used to it. |
  |
| Amazing episode!! I'm loving Ami's transformation and voice!!! They definitely put a lot of work to it. And yes, i'm getting used to the CGI's! I just wish the OP was 2D since the ED is also 2D. Then again, Precure's have 2D OP and 3D ED. I'm liking it!! Even Tuxedo Mask's voice is getting better. I just want him to be more arrogant and laugh at Usagi's fails like the old Anime did. You can do this Kenji Nojima! Aino is pretty amazing at video games!! Everyone was watching her dominate that arcade game!! Ami's voice is awesome!! Even though i'll never forget the bully scandal Kanemoto did during Kokoro Connect's airing. I think she's learned her lesson now or at least more wary about her actions. This is getting good by the episode!! Just wish it was weekly instead of twice a month X___X Can't wait for the next episode! |

| I gotta get used to those transformation sequences. The 3Dness of the cgi still looks chunky to me, especially compared to the scenes afterward when the senshi get their trademark catchphrases in all their 2D glory. Other than that, everything else is gorgeous. Jadeite's LASHES oh man. Ami is so cute, and her new voice is precious. Once the introductions are done and we get into the real plot, waiting is going to be agonizing. Don't understand why they choose to air episodes every two weeks. |
Draknalor said: Do you guys think they will re-do all seasons of sailor moon or only the first? I hope they at least get to the part where Sailor Pluto is introduced because she's my favorite Sailor Senshi! On a more serious note, I think that, based on the pacing of this season, SM Crystal /might/ cover seasons one and two (although keep in mind I haven't read the manga, so I don't know the /original/ pacing of the series). I'd say anything beyond R would be a stretch (unless they do another season of SM remake!). |

| The end of R corresponds to Chapter 26 of the manga. If we keep going at one chapter per episode, we'll get through it easy. |

Fai said: zanpakutoflames said: Ami's transformation scene was nicely done! I'm hoping it'll be just as great for the other sailor senshi. One thing that has not changed over the years is I still can't stand is Usagi's crying =_= I'm looking forward to the introduction of Sailor Mars. Until then, there's another agonizing 2 weeks to wait for the next episode.... She is a 14 year old girl who just met a talking cat and gets assaulted by cosmic horrors everyday. No shit she's crying -__- Also she just got confirmation that maths is evil. |

|
| I'm still having trouble getting used to the designs. The foreheads are just too big and Usagi's voice is extremely, extremely annoying. |
| Am I the only one here who gets annoyed with Usagi's voice? Overall, I like it so far. |
| well, i only watch this cause i was curious (didn't see the original) and this is a classic, but to be honest i am not enjoying it so much idk if it is just oldfashioned.... but it has a poor story, dialogue and many things that nag me all through the episode |
 |
| yay for Ami-chan! the transformation is better than Usagi and it's faster. lol (because i dont like CG transformation) Mamo-chan is really cute... i wonder why he was wearing tuxedo all the time? usagi will be easily noticed him as Tuxedo Mask and his mask is really thin (almost like wearing no mask at all) the drawing need more fix or it was the style? i dont know but i dont like some scenes' art |

| I'm fine if they stop after those 26 eps !! Hope they'll keep it real in celebrating those 20 yrs and stop defiling Sailor Moon anymore ! Actually a continuation of Sailor Stars would have been so much better and no complain about usagi's voice since there's would have had a following of sailor moon to sailor cosmos !! |

Actually a continuation of Sailor Stars would have been so much better and no complain about usagi's voice since there's would have had a following of sailor moon to sailor cosmos !! How comes, that so many old fans complain bout the VA, when it's the same person with almost identical voice. The voicing of Usa in the old Anime was the same way annoying and now people don't even complain about that from the 90' Anime any more >,< I just don't get it... Besides that Toei did a continuation with Dragon Ball GT and it taught us, that doing it without basing on a real work of the Author (Manga) doesn't pay of so good. I don't say it was bad, but somehow... it wasn't that Dragon Ball we grew up with. I would be rather against a SM continuation of the old 90' plot. Remake ok, continuation of old Anime plot, no. I'm happy they didn't make a remake of the old SM like they did with DBZ Kai. Sorry, but that kind of remakes are Money Milkers to me. Still I understand you, cause it's sad, that Toei didn't show more effort working on such a classic. And I mean the errors in the last episode and well the CGI, that for many is the biggest disappointment. |

I hope the quality and flow of animation will go up then. Hopefully with the Blue-Ray version we get the flaws remastered. |
| Amazing |
| http://www.youtube.com/swiftstylez - My AMV's. I would really appreciate any comments and ratings :] |
| I still can't believe that Usagi's VA was the one who voiced Misato from NGE. Nah, I'm getting used to it. |
| The world shall know the truth soon. |
| Ami! As I thought, I am gonna really love the OP. And anyone noticed the lyrics? They symbolized the girls' powers through the lyrics, I really liked that. I see, they made Ami more, what should I say... confident? Cool? I remember her to be shier in original anime. I like that. Usagi is so hilarious. I liked Ami's transformation scene more than Usagi's. Sailr Mars cameo! Gotta hype. Iri said: Whoa there. |

| These episode long character introductions are already getting tired. |
 ☩ Discord: the.path.to.pathos ☩ RateYourMusic ☩ last.fm |
| ^^Honestly though, it's better than the original, because they had all those unnecessary filler episodes in between each introductory episode. It took 33 episodes to meet all of the Sailor Team (the Inners, anyway), where in this it will only take 6, assuming they stick to the manga and episode 4 is Masquerade. I agree, they are a bit tiresome, but Rei's intro is probably my favorite of all of them and once they're all together then the good stuff can happen. Because it's part of Usagi's mission to find all of the other senshi, I think that they all should get an episode to show exactly how they came into their power, or the story is incomplete. |

| Sailor Mercury introduced. The battle scene wasn't that exciting though |
 |
| Am I the only one who noticed a bad animation (not a really bad one, but also worse than the first episode's)? I still prefer the old sailor moon tho |
| -CRIES- IM LOVING THIS |
| The jump at the end of Ami's transformation looks stupid and out of character for her. And why the heck her senshi uniform doesn't have those little sleeves everybody else has?! Should the only sleeveless be Sailor Pluto, and the only one with different sleeves Sailor Saturn?! Why Mercury?! |
| ったく、嫌な世の中だよ。 |

The jump might not fit "Ami" but it fits "Mercury" as a person. . All the senshi have variations in their uniforms in the manga ( ) Manga-version overall has far more differentiations in uniforms(like ) and far more uniform changes as it goes on |

| Well, this episode has more differences with the manga comparing with the first episode. What I like is Mercury's transformation. It has similar sequense with the old one. |
| Yes! Sailor Mercury appears! Ami-chan is smart and cute. She's pretty when she smiles. I'm used to CGI but it was terrible. I prefer 2d one. Toei definitely need to improve. It feels like they're not putting their heart into this . Gotta love watching this. It made me feel like I'm back in the 90's again watching the old one tv when I was a kid. Really brings back memories of my childhood... Sailor Mars is up. Yes! |
