Cityinthesea posted:S is the best, by far (the outer senshi are the best SuperS has, I think, three major problems. They decided to make Chibi-usa the main focus, the new characters were god-awful, and it followed S. Categorically, I would say it's worse than R even when you count the filler half of R in the equation. The love story seemed hamhanded and forced, I really can't stress enough how much I dislike Pegasus, and can I say how much I hate Pegasus again? I didn't mind when Chibi-usa showed up in R but god drat did I hate on Pegasus. So, yeah, worse than R. The only good thing about it is that it's sandwiched between S and Stars.

). I never watched SuperS because of Chibi-usa, is it as bad as R?

ConanThe3rd posted:Bugger Knows. Kai is such a mess, editorially speaking, which is frustrating because it's the (not TFS) version of DBZ I want most. It'd be kind of hard to dub the Buu arc since they ended Kai at the end of the Cell arc.

Huh, well I'll be damned. In Sailor Moon, since the series is planned to be streamed in multiple languages, I thought, is there any plan for a new release?

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-04-30/sailor-moon-crystal-anime-confirmed-for-26-episodes This is the first time I've seen it as anything other than speculation but it looks like we're getting 26 eps for now. I'm...slightly disappointed by this. I would have figured that with a bi-weekly schedule, they may have just gone through the whole thing but getting just over half of the original number of episodes from the first season seems kind of strange.

If it gets better than this episode I might die of nostalgia. The backgrounds are just gorgeous and it literally felt like watching the manga get animated. I can't wait to see it all and the fact we need to wait 2 weeks is fine by me if the art stays like this/gets better. Edit: aers posted:Yes. They're all awful. They're like.. Hong Kong-tier. Them insisting that Youma translates just as "Evil" gave me flashbacks to watching terrible VHS fansubs in the late 90s. Robviously fucked around with this message at 12:56 on Jul 5, 2014 |

Sailor Moon was syndicated back in the day; part of the reason that the Sailor Says segments were added was to be able to call it "educational programming." I remember that in my area two different channels actually had it. One before school and one after. It could have been on any local channel, Fox, NBC, etc, since each local channel has a chunk or time they get to use during the day. Most run talk or game shows since they're almost all syndicated by design. (In my hometown Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune are on ABC; where I'm currently living it's NBC.) Cartoons used to fill that before/after school niche. ^^^ E;fb

Moatman posted:She's definitely less emotive My only problem is basing how emotive she is off of one episode. I like the changes that they made to how she comes off as clumsy and I think we need to give it a bit more time before we can really gauge where they head with it. I don't think she's ever going to be as comically emotive as she was in the first series but I think there's definitely room for dramatic emotive improvement as the series progresses.

Captain Mog posted:I'm SO glad I'm not the only grown-up who loves this cheesy little girl show. I don't think I ever missed a single episode growing up- although I never told any of my friends because what kind of guy likes Sailor Moon for Christ's sake, I may as well have just come out of the closet right then and there instead of waiting until later. It's well written & funny with likable characters & lots of positive messages about girl power and friendship. It's incredibly close. The only change that I could notice from the 1st chapter to the 1st episode is that when she transforms for the first time, she has a pair of glasses(goggles? mask?) that actually lets her see what's going on with Naru at the jewelry store. She doesn't have them when she shows up to fight though, so it's not a huge loss. I can't imagine that they're not going to stay super faithful given how much Takeuchi appears to be involved.

mateo360 posted:Question: Can someone explain why Ami's/Mercury's senshi outfit is the only one without shoulder sleeves? Each of the senshi have little differences in their outfits. Shoulders, accessories, shoes, and Jupiter has her antenna on her tiara. This is not the series for OCD.

Axel Serenity posted:I actually like the CG transformations, honestly. It just looks like a cel-shaded animation more than anything, and the bubbles for Ami looked pretty sweet. Should be interesting to see if they ever showcase Pluto's ultimate powers with it I'm still torn on the CG transformations because they are just far too noodle-limber for me to not wonder who the gently caress approved that animation. The bubbles were a great touch, though, and I can't wait to see the fire and thunder.

Rodyle posted:On the other hand, from what I recall the anime's pacing is so slow it drove me mad at a time when I could stand DBZ anime pacing. I think you might want to get reacquainted with the original again. There is very little that actually feels like filler and really the only make problem, as fast as I'm concerned, was SuperS. It does a really good job of fleshing out the characters and even goes so far as to make a really sorry sympathetic anti-hero of sorts out of one of the villains. The entirety of the Doom Tree arc is another perfect example, for the longest time I didn't recognize it as filler even if I always wondered what happened to Arabian Tuxedo Mask. I think that they went the right way with the new series, if only because I think we'd be missing out on a lot of good content if they just gave it a DBZ Kai treatment.

HIJK posted:That is partially the point since she is after all an average fourteen year old being forced into crappy situations. Her teammates take it more in stride because of their life circumstances which forced them to mature faster than the average person. Even by the end of this episode it's true. She got beat but she wasn't afraid to actually stand up and escalate when faced with a horde of movie zombies in front of her for a change. I have to agree that this show has suffered for sticking to the manga's pacing. It's moving at the speed of light and while we get less filler, it's become a much more generic shonen show with a shojo facade. Meet villain, fight villain, power up, beat villain isn't really the best formula and I kind of wish they kept some of the lessons learned in the medium over the last 20+ years instead of giving us what amounts to Scooby Doo levels of characterization, even if it is closer to the manga. (Would have gotten away with this rental store if it wasn't for those meddling Sailor Scouts, yadda yadda...)

Dove from Above posted:I really, really feel that they're just doing this poorly. The character and relationship development are so lacking, even on the relationship they've given the most time, between Usagi and Mamoru. You know, we've been criticizing the studio and director for how poorly the senshi are coming off in this but isn't Takeuchi the one who's okaying any story changes in this? I thought the whole point of this remake was that it was gonna be closer to her vision of what the series was supposed to be.
