I don't like how they are going to start showing Witch Hunter Robin on the Adult Swim. It feels as if anime is so mainstream and easily accessible now -- I wish it was a little more obscure. I think there's something special about having to save up money and wait weeks for an anime DVD or video to a...

Sailor Moon and Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

Am I the only one who has noticed some similarities between Buffy and Sailor Moon? It's mostly the first two seasons of Buffy that remind me of SM, but there are some similarities in the later seasons too. I'm not claiming that Buffy is a rip-off of SM or anything, but still, there are some similari...

One thing that I don't understand about Evangelion... [spoiler] They make out Asuka to be this lonely girl with no friends or people to depend on and open up to, and yet ... what's Hikari, then? Asuka was obviously close friends with Hikari and we see her opening up to her a bit in ep 24, so it does...

I still question the validity of some cuts. Episode 5 was most likely NOT cut to to Haruna's dress being flipped up. I base this on the photography episode, where Haruna and Naru are shown in smallish swimsuits. Which were far more revealing. . Episode two was the episode which involved a scene wit...

1) When there are three main characters in a team (like Magic Knights Rayearth, or when on BSSM it was just Usagi, Rei, and Ami), there's almost always two outgoing people (usually a ditz and a bossy one) and then a quiet, smart one. On Evangelion, there's two quiet people (one more emotional and t...

I actually like her somewhat...her being more unemotional and Shinji being more emotional breaks gender stereotypes in an interesting way. I've observed that Evangelion really seems to break some stereotypes, which most people don't appear to notice. The stereotype I mostly noticed was with Asuka -...

I'd hate to post another topic so soon after I posted that last one, but I need some help with this.

I completely agree...some of the VAs are just AWFUL. Lisa Ortiz, Terri Hawkes, and David Moo to name a few. they've researched the fact that they have accents to begin with. Personally, I didn't think Terri Hawkes' voice for Serena was *too* terribly bad. I mean, it sounded much too old for Serena ...

She's a princess, and she's a crybaby. It's the truth. You have to understand that the outers believed (and sometimes do later on, too) that sailor moon is very weak...she thinks with her heart, while the outers use logic, which may sometimes seem cold. The outers are rightfully pissed with usagi b...

Re: All Time Fav SM episode

Hmm, I'm honestly not sure. It's pretty difficult to decide on one all-time favorite SM episode because there are a lot I like. Episodes 34-35, 45-46 and 106 and 110 are all very good. It's really hard to decide, but I suppose I'll go with ep 106 as my all-time favorite because I just think it's a s...

Here's one example of imperfection that Michiru showed which no one has mentioned -- in the next to last episode of S, Neptune calls Usagi "Princess Crybaby." What a mean and immature insult! If Michiru truly were perfect, she wouldn't have insulted Usagi in such a cruel, childish manner.

In my opinion, while DiC had a few decent tunes I probably prefer the music of the original, especially the music used in S which I think is absolutely beautiful. A lot of the music from the Japanese Sailormoon is very fun, catchy, sad, lovely, memorable ... a few DiC tunes are cool and catchy, but ...

I think it could easily go on Adult Swim... No, actually it couldn't, or at least episode 200 couldn't. If I'm not mistaken, nudity is not allowed on the Adult Swim, not even nudity that isn't very explicit and therefore episode 200 couldn't be shown on there unless they painted clothes on Usagi or...

Re: Where could an uncensored, uncut dubbed Stars go?

Call me crazy, but I don't want Stars to be uncut and uncensored if it actually is dubbed. I *want* it to be edited. I just think that it'd be interesting and amusing to see an edited dubbed version and to analyze all the changes in it and compare it to the original.

least favorite- I liked SuperS cliffhanger a lot and the episodes leading to it.

But how she turned out to be just s...

Favorite and Least Favorite Season Finales?

I was just wondering what everyone's favorite and least favorite season finales are. As for me, I've only seen the finales for Classic, R and S and it's been a long time since I've seen the R one, so I really only have opinions on the Classic and S ones. It's hard for me to decide between the Classi...

it turned out for the better though... I mean... it gives other senshi more depth *chibiusa, Minako, Rei, Ami, etc...* and most fans like S the best... everyone has their own opinions though... Do most fans really like S the most? The majority of the fans I've come across seem to like Stars the best.

Re: Your First Encounter with Sailor Moon

Well, when I was 8 or 9 (I'm 14 now) I would see kids discussing Sailormoon and I believe I had even seen a picture of Sailormoon and the inner senshi, which offended me at the time because of how short their skirts were. I learned that it came on at 4 pm on weekdays on CN so I decided to try watchi...
