Favorite Transformation

What is your favorite transfomation sequence?

For me, it's Usagi's Eternal Sailor Moon tranformation, Sailor Neptune, and Sailor Saturn. I saw Sailor Saturn transform in a Kazaa movie. It's quite short.

It's strange but I don't ever remember seeing Sailor Saturn transform in the anime...perhaps it was a flash animation thing? My favorite henshin sequences in the anime are Sailor Mar's, Sailor Venus', and the Sailor Starlights' henshin sequences. For PGSM, I like Sailor Mercury's and Sailor Mar's the best.

My favorite SM transforamtion of all time is Usagi's S "Crisis" Transformation. When she uses the Holy Grail to transform. I just thought it was cool how she poured the light from the holy grail over herself and then broke out of the "shell"-looking frame. :D I just thought that was the prettiest transformation.

Sailor Saturn's transformation is from a video game.

I believe it was from one of the video games, though I don't remember which. I'm quite sure she never transforms in the anime.

My favorite henshin sequence is probably Sailor Luna's. No, just kidding. That one creeps me out. My real favorite is Venus's. I like the way she winds up standing there displaying her body--it's both sexy and defiant. Also the music ("Sailor Venus. . . Sailor Venus") is nice and catchy. Not the best music, though. That goes to the Uranus and Neptune transformation music.

A clarification: The Uranus and Neptune is the best music used during a transformation. The Double Transformation theme of Moon and Chibimoon, off of the CD, has an awesome saxophone solo that I'm not sure they used in the series, but which makes it the best music for transformations, IMO.

I'd have to agree. I also like Usagi's Eternal Sailor Moon transformation.

As far as PGSM goes, my favorite henshin sequences are Sailor Mercury's. Both good Sailor Mercury and Dark Sailor Mercury's. I love the music that goes with those ones as well.

Sailor Moon · Post by **Sailor Moon** » Thu May 27, 2004 4:04 pm

I love all of Sailor Moon/Usagi's transformations. There's so many great ones. I think the first transformation "Moon Prism Power! Make Up!" of Usagi into Sailor Moon is my favorite. I also love Tuxedo Mask's transformation into Endymion and Sailor Moon's transformation into Serenity. The moments were perfect. I love all logn transformations. I love Sailor Moon's first transformation and second transformation a lot. I love all of them. I can't decide! There's so many wonderful ones.

I haven't seen PGSM so I can't comment on that, but I think Super Sailor Moon and Chibi Moon's "Moon Crisis Make Up" is my favourite. The music is quite cool and the animation is colourful and crisp. I love the bits where they stand there with the ribbons flowing around them and when their skirts fan accross the screen.

So so pretty.

I also like Sailor Pluto's henshin. All the outer senshi have really cool music to transform to, but Pluto's stood out because I love the way she crosses her arms and the cone of light covers her.

From the anime, I've always been partial to the "Outers" transformation sequences, specifically Uranus' and Neptune's. There's just something so defiant about the way they wield the pens, spin 'em round, then nonchallantly get bathed in the light that changes them into the Soldiers.

While not really a "transformation", per se, Tuxedo Mask's changing into Prince Endymion in the R movie was pretty cool. He just stands up and blinks as the light of the Silver Crystal washes over and changes him. Pretty cool looking.

I also liked Usagi's "Crisis" transformation done at the end of S after the grail has been destroyed. It might be the emotion of the entire scene that does it, but seeing her pound on the ground futilly, whispering out the words to do it, then finally screaming CRISIS MAKE UP! - it's all very, very awesome indeed.

PGSM: I think I like Jupiter's the best so far. She's got so much energy during the scene, hopping around as different parts of the suit come together over her. I also pick up on a slight hint of cockiness as the earrings appear and as she moves her hand across to reveal the belt; the whole package really comes together for a cool-looking transformatino.

It's not really a henshin, but I love it when Sailor Moon in falling in the sky (episode 166) and her fuku turns into her Princess outfit.

And also in episode 166, when Pegasus merges (?) with Chibimoon, and Serenity and they get wings. *.*

Mine would be Usagi's first henshin in the anime. I just love how it's well choroigraphed with the music. Then of course the Outers (it would have been soooo bitchin if Saturn had a henshin sequence in the anime and all four of them transformed one after another). I also like Sailor Star Maker's henshin better than the other Starlights because I think her poses were better.

Also, has anyone noticed that the inner senshi and starlights henshin music says their names, but the outers henshin music doesn't say anything? Weird.

My fav henshin is sailor moons "Moon Cosmic Power" since it is from my fav season (S) and it just is wat i remember most of all the sailor moon henshin sequences.

from the other senshi i like Sailor Star Healer and Sailor Jupiter

and From PSGM i liked sailor jupiter senshin sequence.

Not surprisingly, Chibi Moon's S movie transformation (the long one) is one of my two top favorites. I like the cute music that plays during it, and just like the way it looks. My other favorite is the Chibi Moon/Sailor Moon double transformation in SuperS. It's unique in that they transform together, as opposed to all the other Senshi who transform one at a time. So basically I like both transformations with Chibi Moon in them.

toxichatsukoi · Post by **toxichatsukoi** » Thu May 27, 2004 9:48 pm

My favorite from the anime would be SailorMoon's S transformation. I like the sound effects and her pose at the end.

My favorite from PGSM is Venus' she looks very dignifed when she's walking towards the screen and as if the sun's rays are dying her hair blonde. Very cute

LadyFlameSniper · Post by **LadyFlameSniper** » Thu May 27, 2004 10:51 pm

My favorite is Pluto's. It's just so cool and I like the ticking sound effect it makes while the mist is surrounding her at the beginning.

I also like Moon Cosmic Power Make up, Mars Crystal Power Make up, Uranus' and Neptune's a lot. And Moon Eternal Make up would be up there too if wasn't for that goofy pose she makes at the end. I love a lot of the transformation music too.

Lady of the Light · Post by **Lady of the Light** » Thu May 27, 2004 11:23 pm

I'd have to agree with LadyFlameSniper here and say Pluto's. The way she kinda twirls and the funnel of cloud/water/whatever the heck closes in on her is awesome.

Close seconds go to Venus Crystal Power, Make-up and Moon Crystal Power, Make-up.

Artemis · Post by **Artemis** » Sun May 30, 2004 1:36 am

I'd probably say Pluto's. It's more original than the other Outers (save Saturn, since she never transforms in the anime) and I like the different angles they show her from, like from the top and all around. And of course, her pose is kickass.
I'm not really sure if this counts as a transformation or not, but I like Mamoru's transformation into Tuxedo Kamen. (Even though I don't like Tuxedo Kamen.) I loved when the tophat just kind of dropped onto his head-it cracked me up.
I also don't like Mercury that much, but I liked her transformation, too. It looks like a ribbon dance-prettyyyyyy ^^

The Moonie · Post by **The Moonie** » Sun May 30, 2004 9:12 am

I like Chibi-moons henshin is the S movie. I also like the outers. The starlights( there soemthing about men growing breasts that i like). I liked Chibi-chibi's Even though it was more just and explosion of heats.

sailor53 · Post by **sailor53** » Sun May 30, 2004 2:29 pm

My favorites are Usagi's first transformation and her Eternal Sailor Moon transformation. I also like Sailor Mars SuperS transformation.
