| Well, the second episode was better than the first although it still had many flaws. Seeing that they outsourced some of the animation that explains it. One thing I did like was Ami's new voice actress. She's not Aya Hisakawa but her voice is close and it really suits Ami. I wonder how they are going to handle how the plot with the next episode. I hope this show continues to get better. If it does we could get another season which would make sense if going 1 act per episode. So it wouldn't make sense to leave us hanging... Anyway...back to the current episode like I said, improvement... Really cool to see all the modern computers and stuff. Wonder what other modern changes will be made. I think the monsters in the older anime were scarier (for the most part) but still. Sailor Mercury's transformation was pretty good I think the CGI is meh but I can try and ignore it. |

| Mercury's transformation was actually really good! |

breathesunshine said: Again with a less than mediocre episode. For something I was so excited about, I am extremely finding myself very very disappointed. This doesn't even seem to be an actual adaptation of the manga as far as I can remember. The animation is trash and the story telling feels bland with a few exceptions of Usagi being her normal funky self. Why bother doing this over if they fall short of the original? Shouldn't remakes be better and more pleasing? Oh and I still hate the opening song, it makes me cringe, and the ending one is only slightly better. Overall I don't expect this to get better, I'll wait and see if it is worth watching all 26 episodes. -_- Totally. It sucks. |

Its already better than the "original"(i'll let it slide that previous adaptation was NOT original). WHy? - It did not take 452454 episodes to get to second senshi. - It won't take bazillion episodes of pointless filler to get to the point. - It actually has a point. - Usagi already did more on her own than in first 10 episodes of the "original" - TM's interrupts are way less sexist, its more of mentoring and help than Usagi needing him to function. - Usagi and Luna do not appear as dumbasses in Ami introduction and make correct and competent assumptions. - Usagi is already progressing in being a better person than her terrible self in previous adaptation. I can't wait for next episode because it will piss of those who look back at "original" with rose-tinted glasses, even more xD |

| Loved the 2nd episode. A MUCH IMPROVED from the first I must say.... Usagi's VA is settling into her role and doesnt sound as bad anymore. Ami's new VA fits her pretty perfect too. The attack moves are instant now and without a separate over the top animation sequence is cool... the old show got annoying because it kept using repeated scenes for the attacks. The inner senshi are coming fast now... Can't wait to see Sailor Mars. :) |

ichii_1 said: kandiiyuutaamu said: Err....more like it is the same seiyuu who did her voice from like twenty years ago!? Exactly, it was 20 YEARS ago!!! :O think about that. Exactly indeed, also for a fact that there is the awareness of going onto an anime character's profile and then going onto the page of the original seiyuu's profile, opening up and seeing a list of various roles for each character she did in various anime. Therefore, when searching up anime shows especially if SOME are remakes of the original - 90's - anime, it is always wise to gone onto its page and goes through the whole of anime characters along with their seiyuus' and see what kind of roles they do. Since this is a discussion about the Sailor Moon anime, I will need to stay on topic. As you already know the main character of the series is Usagi Tsukino AKA Sailor Moon. I think the person who made this comment should look up onto Sailor Moon's character page and then looked up the seiyuu who does her original voice - Kotono Mitsuishi and see that she does this same character in both the original and modern version. |

| This show is a sad cash grab, and all the desperate Sailor Moon fans really should be ashamed for accepting this. Don't you take pride in your favorite series? This is just a shitty low budget excuse to remarket an old franchise. Seriously. Stop rewarding Toei for doing the bare minimum. |

Psajdak said: I read quality was low for this episode cause of Moon Pride video. Episode 1 and 2 were outsourced to a foreign animation company because the team for the show was working on the music video. |

| I personally like what they are doing with Mercury and the approach they are taking to this series. They made Ami cute instead of just being the brainy one. And I like that.

This is just a shitty low budget excuse to remarket an old franchise. Seriously. Stop rewarding Toei for doing the bare minimum. How are they doing the bare minimum? They upgrade the animation, voice acting, and sound quality. This was something Naoko wanted to do, as she was disappointed with how the last anime turned out. In this adaptation she had more say than the last, which is to say she had nearly no say in the last adaption. But regardless I still love it, I like both. Sure nothing will give us a good look into the tortured psyche of Minako like 3rd season did. Having her shoot herself in the chest with the gun the Death Busters use just to see if she had any worth. Which cements her as one of my favorite anime characters of all time. But I have a feeling that this will be at least decent in my eyes. But hey, each to their own. Just don't go pulling the nostalgia glasses over everybody's eyes. |

| "Canaan. You're a victim whose past was taken away by war. And she's a defeated person who lost her past in a power struggle. Soldiers who are born within destruction take hatred as their weapon. Even though you and her became soldiers for the same reason, you both live differently. Listen Canaan, you cannot counter hatred with hatred... ever." -Siam, Canaan |
| Okay ever I have to admit Ami is really really cute. Even moreso than the original series. Two things struck me, WHERE'S BUBBLE SPRAY?!?! Also, no ROSE ATTACK AND WITTY MONOLOGUE from Tuxedo Mask!! Other than that Usagi is still as klutzy as ever. Next episode...my most hated inner senshi takes the stage... |

If you don't like it fine, but please stop judging others, because they like it. |
WolfWood37 said: Two things struck me, WHERE'S BUBBLE SPRAY?!?! Also, no ROSE ATTACK AND WITTY MONOLOGUE from Tuxedo Mask!! Bubble spray was never in the manga. None of the previous anime attacks were in the manga. Tuxedo Mask never ever throws even a single rose and is not one for monologues - at best he will give some strategic advice that he knows(like , at worst he will just observe the situation doing nothing. |
|
| Well that was an anticlimactic death...sort of. And I don't know why, but the "middle aged lady trying to sound like a 14 year old" voice of Usagi's voice actress makes Usagi sound even more hilarious. |
Snow_Queen said: I still wonder why they use CG if the long transformation will be in every episode. Think they would do something more about it. How do you know they'll be in every episode? There's been only 2 so far. They'll most likely cut them later on for the plot. |

Oh I just can't wait. It will be troll-worthy. ALl the delicious tears and shock, if they adapt THAT correctly. I just hope the production team does not chicken out and change something. That twist is pretty much needed to explode previous show fanbase's brains. |

| Enough already jeez! How about actually letting people watch the next episode in peace and not spouting about "That scene in the next episode" "WHich will make the old show fan retards go sfkzifzsodpi"? The manga reader elitism is clearly showing. |

The Fate of Destruction is also the Joy of Rebirth ;) |

| I really want to like this. But wow, the animation sucks big time. As people have mentioned, there's so much inconsistencies and it's so distracting that I can barely focus on anything but that. |
| I'm really enjoying this series! Another great episode, dare I say better than the last episode. I don't remember Sailor Mercury being so cute :) Her voice and everything is adorable, I might be in love lol. Great episode tho, 5/5. |
povsuduvolosy said: ( Ami is so skinny i want to feed her) Amen, Bro. OTOH, I liked how they made her wear her Reading Specs more often. Meganekko FTW! P. S: Still need to get used to these lips ^_^ Now they look like they're constantly using make-up ;-) |

Mirality said: Something that's been bothering me since I saw this... since when has *water* been an appropriate element for Mercury? It's the hottest and driest planet. First of all Venus is the hottest one according to science. I think it has mainly a symbolic mean. Otherwise you can explain it in many ways. As a element Mercury a.k.a. Quicksilver is fluid under normal conditions. The first space probe send to Mercury was called Mariner 10 Venus for example is the Roman goddess of love and beauty, so it fits Sailor Venus perfectly. Mars is called often the Red planet, so it symbolizes fire. And Jupiter is a gas giant and because of it's raging winds and thunderstorms it fits Sailor Jupiter too. |
iatheia said: Or, y'know, without doing mental arithmetics, look at Japanese names for planets 水星 - Mercury/water planet 金星 - Venus/golden planet 火星 - Mars/fire planet 木星 - Jupiter/tree planet 土星 - Saturn/earth planet Named long-long ago before they had any understanding what these planets are actually like. True for Mercury and Mars. But for the rest it doesn't fully explains their elements. Still, the old planet list in Japanese explains something else. Just look up the full list and checking Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, then comparing them with the last names of the Outer Senshi's. Well, it's rather a topic for a separate post. There are many, many ways to explain the Senshi's elements, names, attacks etc. as we can see :D |

| I watched the first episode when it first aired. I'm returning to it a couple years later. The second episode keeps the same plot line hat I remember. I have a feeling the big improvement will be cutting out the filler, but the downfall is the animation. It'll probably even out to be the same score as the original, but with slight preference to the old one because of nostalgia. |

| Ami so cute :D loved her cute why voice and episode was very good. I alreasy got used to the chi, her transformation was great. Prefer this ep by far over the first. And im crudhing on tuxedo, he looks way hotter in crystal Am excited for sailor mars, she was my fav wonder if she still will be AAWAdam said: Sir_Lexa said: Enough already jeez!
