| Wow, the subbed is completely different to the dubbed ones that I used to watch when I was younger. Sailor Moon is probably the one of the only animes that sound good when dubbed as well.. but then again it was cause I was used to it. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |

Wow-A-Leaf said: There's one thing that has been bugging me though: Usagi had only found out about the existence of this 'Sailor Moon' character, let alone that she IS Sailor Moon. When Morga (was that her name?) asked her who she was, she responded saying that she was the Scout of Love and Justice? How did she know that? Did Luna tell her on their way there? Was it just instinct? What are your thoughts? Maybe Usagi had a vision or sth ^^ Recently I re-watched SM, but that episode seemed to be completely new to me O.o But if I remember correctly I started wathing SM in the middle of first season when I was a child, so that's probably the reason why I can't recallthis ep. |
| Wow, this is so much better then that saturday morning cartoon I used to watch when I was a kid! |
| “Money can't buy dere” |

DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- If you're rewatching, have you noticed any small details you didn't pick up last time? I never noticed how Tuxedo Mask did nothing but throw roses and run away. |
| Oh man this bring back memories... Though I always thought Usagi was the first Sailor in the series. Apparently that Salor V became a magical girl before her. |
 |
| I tried to put on my nostalgia goggles, but I really don't remember much about Sailor Moon since I watched it dubbed more than a decade and a half ago. I love Usagi's voice though. |

| I used to watch this show when i was a kid.. havent seen it in forever and im quite glad i decided to start the series again. I missed this show and forgot how awesome it was. I love Luna the cat shes so adorable i've always wanted a cat with a crescent moon >.< |
| I watched a few episodes of Sailor Moon when I was younger, and then a few once more when I was a preteen because my friend was in love with the show. But I never actually watched it all the way through. So now, I'm trying to catch up on classic shows - Sailor Moon being one on my list. After watching the first episode, it makes me really miss when cartoons taught lessons and things like that. I prefer the sub over the dub - considering the voice acting can be a little lack luster at times in the English version, but their are so many episodes and reading subtitles takes up all of my attention so I'd rather watch the dubbed so I can just relax, haha. |
| Yeah, it's so strange watching it subbed! I like it though. It brings back memories. I'll never forget the opening theme song~ |
| I was a complete tomboy, so I overlooked Sailor Moon often. The most I really remember is the opening theme or the end of episodes while I was waiting for something else on Toonami to come on in 1999 and then it later appearing on Kids' WB in 2001. I usually will picked dubbed over subbed (unless the voice acting is unbearable), but in this case I'm going dubbed. I've always heard a lot of content was changed and it appealed to the younger children in the US versus early teens, and I don't want to miss things! |
 |
| I think the life lessons are only in the dubbed version since it was treated as a kids cartoon rather than an action/comedy/romance. I watched the dubbed version with my daughter who had a complete set of Sailor Moon paraphenalia (tiara, wand, etc.) years ago as my first anime. But yes, it is now time to re-watch the whole series in prep for the remake. Already I can see so many improvements in the subbed version. Catchy as the English OP was, I much prefer the lyrics of the Japanese version which emphasizes the romance. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Bunny is cute, don't remember her to be so likable. Probably because I don't remember most of the stuff about Sailor Moon. It's been a long time, plus I'm not even sure whether I've even watched all of the episodes... I don't think so. That's why I'm here, watching this oldie, I guess. skreyola said: The fuss is about childhood memories. Nostalgia. And besides, it is enjoyable,I'm watching this to see what all the fuss is about. Not impressed, so far, but I'll keep watching, for now. especially for kids but for older ones too if you're open-minded. |

| Just watched the Sailor Moon so called "BD" by Viz. It's not that bad, but man they really screwed some of the scenes and it appears more blurry than the TV version. I also compared the Crystal Version, it's almost similar, but this one seems more light hearted and they actually gave other characters more screen time instead of just Usagi-only centric in Crystal. Not bad, but damn Viz either needs to hire a new encoder and use the Italian DVD's which i read is even better than the Japanese one. At least the audio is much better and more high quality compared to the DVD's Can't wait for the next episodes though! |
| I couldn't help but smile at Usagi's antics, And tuxedo mask is voiced by Toru Furuya which is always a good thing. |
| I'm new to the series, though it's pretty famous in my country, started watching it after they relesed a remake. I didn't like new art, comparing to the old, so I'm sticking to a remaster of the original SM. I'm actualy quite surprised by how this show manages to be charming and interesting to a grown up me, while being simplistic with it's plot and having a girly heroine. I've started to like it from the beginning. As for Love and Justice thing, I think it's an instinct and also a show-off, like her fancy moves. This story is like theater performance, sometimes plainly so (I watched a few ep's before commenting) and not trying to be realistic in form, but as a good tale is realistic in essense, using ideal ideas (like astrological-alchemical symbols) to make a relatable and likeable characters in a familiar setting. It can be powerful if done right. It's curious, how the authors use western astrology for their story. It's somewhat like pre-christian religious performance with gods (planets) and spirits and heroes, symbolising real processes and life-lessons, rather than mindless entertainment and fan-service. I have a special liking for such symbolic shows, and SM is fun too. I also like it's rock-opera kind of music, it adds to epicness and theatrical feel. I'm also glad to see, that graphics is very good for it's time, the designs are cute and directing is adequate so far with never a dull scene, it aged well. |

 |
| Yeah, well, that too, but obviously SM is meant for older audience and is more complex (not the first time japanese improve on western ideas). |
| Hell is empty and all the devils are here. |
| It was ok, not really into it now but it might come |
| I have the next week off so I decided to sit down and watch the first episode.. and gotta say it had me smiling almost half of the episode :D Hopefully I can finish this quickly and move on to the sequels |
 |
| Does a good job as a first episode, and I found myself having more fun than expected. The music is very 90's, fortunately it's pretty catchy. I really like the visuals so far, and Usagi has a lot of flexibility in her animation (like excellent timing and a wide range of expressions). Though I assume the transformation sequence will be copy-pasted once per episode from now on, it's at least very pretty. Really makes me appreciate how much the old school professionals were able to achieve without digital processing back then. |
| I really enjoyed the 1st episode, looking forward to completing this series :3 One little thing that bothers me is her name: Tsukino Usagi (Moon's rabbit?), Usagi sounds really weird to me x.x |
 |
| it's funny to watch this now. feels like it's my first time because back when i was a kid I didn't watch it seriously and can't really remember much. from what i can tell from this episode, the western version changed a lot from the original, so i'm pretty excited to see how the story unfolds. (specially haruka and michiru ❤) usagi is a pretty funny protagonist. she can get a bit annoying, but it is already refreshing to see she's not perfect. |
  |
| I can't recall any of the details of this show. I'm sure I watched it at one point as a child but my brain draws blank. I enjoyed this episode a lot, will definitely keep going as this is one of those classical shows that are a must watch for everyone. |
| She's like a more tolerable female version of Nobita. Not a bad start at all. Usagi with her whiny airheaded personality is pretty funny. |
| "In the name of the moon, I will punish you!" Oh boy, if I told the 10 years old me that now that I'm 23 I would be watching the series that I avoided like the plague (for some reason I can't remember) after rewatching Sakura and Doremi, I think he would think that I'm on drugs. Really nice first episode, Usagi seems to be my type of character, I laughed quite a lot with the comedy coming from her (please no bulli Usagi), also Tuxedo Mask appeared, don't tell me that the "but you did nothing!" Hilarious meme was fake q_q |
 |
| I just loved that a second after Tuxedo Mask said "crying won't be helping", crying did help, lol. Totally didn't know it's that good when I was a kid. I was in pre-school while it was airing in my country and became a hit. I avoided it because, you know, boys get laughed at for watching girl's cartoon at that age. Oh boy how much I regret buying into that silly mentality now. (Yet later when I was just a bit older, I would be secretly watching Sakura and Doremi for every single week.) |
 |
| wow she IS a crybaby. I thought it was a joke in the beginning of the episode but she actually defeated the monster by crying. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| Boy I forgot how the demons in this show can get real scary. That 180° head curve o.o |
 |
| I'm rewatching the series for like the 1000x time. The first episode is still one of my favourite episodes, haha! |
 |
| First time adult watcher, heard about, but never saw any of this show and I'm actually impressed with that first episode. A fun watch, never knew she was such a crybaby, love that it's actually a power. Monster mum looked awesome and love that the main guy is called Tuxedo Mask, because he wears a tuxedo and a mask.....lmfao. |
| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| First time watching, I grew up with Cardcaptor Sakura as my main magical girl show, I'd never heard of Sailor Moon until much later. I find it funny because what made me start watching this after all these years is because I found a really cool poster of Sailor Moon that I wanted to buy and I generally only get stuff from shows I've watched so here I am. For starters I will say, this is great. I've watched 5 episodes at this point (Subbed). There's a distinct nostalgia from the 90's art style of the show, the character interactions and even the way it's animated. It's extremely inviting, full of charm and bustling with personality. Tuxedo Mask cracks me up each time. The soundtrack is fantastic, I find myself head bobbing each time the "Sailor Moon" or the battle theme go on. I'm kinda sad that I somehow missed this during my entire childhood, I hadn't even heard of it before I got into high school but nevertheless I have a feeling I'm gonna enjoy this one a lot. I never the knew the "You did nothing" meme was just made up but it suits the scenario so well. xD |
 |
| I had to watch this because I loved the aesthetic, and it's very good so far! It must be what Winx Club was inspired from, the transformations look so similiar. |
| Oh the nostalgia. I loved this as a child and in fact it was one of the very first anime I remember watching. I did a soft rewatch as a teenager and after all these years I got curious again how this anime would hold up to 23 year old me. And I gotta say it started off wonderfully. The style and comedy are better than I remembered them to be, or it's just that I took them for granted back then. In any case, I'm sure that I will find new appreciation for this series with this rewatch. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| She sure is a crybaby!!! |
| i am crazy enough to be enjoying this in 2021 |
| water |
| Damn, here I am, watching my first episode of Sailor Moon in 2022. |
| This is my first time watching so I have no nostalgia for this. My first impressions are this show is extremely cute and charming, so I am looking forward to watching more. |
| i've read a few chapters of the manga so i'm not entirely new but this was a good episode! usagi is funny |
