I can't believe Kukuri was Sailor Moon all along.

I also can't believe there's only like 10 gifs on tumblr, what a shame.

This show is good and cute. I'll take the purity as the reason they don't have gifs.

But the only way i know how to express my enjoyment of a series is by stealing other people's gifs and posting them :(

A little late in what's supposed to be a 2-cours series, but it's fine.

Oh no I was just thinking yesterday how much I love the opening for this show. The way the singer holds or emphasises certain syllables is cute. I hope the new one is as good.

Yup!


Also, apparently there was an extremely well hidden joke last episode. You know the mysterious true Suela we never met? Aka スエラ in Japanese?

Does this mean filler/anime-original stuff, or manga content that that the old series never covered? I never watched past the first few episodes of the original show.

New OP is cute, but I definitely like the first one better so far. I'll give it time to grow on me though, it's fun.

We're entering into manga content the original series never covered.

Did the manga ever finish? Is the anime series on course for covering all of it?

I do miss the group north-north dance and the map zoom to the party's current location, but OP2 is pretty good too.

The manga finished and there's an ongoing sequel covering post-Giri adventures. I think the anime is on course to cover the whole first adventure but I don't know. I don't think any English speaker has read the entire manga.

There is also a spin-off that is all about everyone's favorite dancing old man. (Possibly referenced in that episode where he got his bikini armour)

I like when Nike gets the quest reward only to drop it or sell it because it takes up space.

Actually it was cute when they gave the pot that never burns food to Kukuri's grandma.

I don't like the new OP as much as the original, but I prefer the new ED, so it balances out. Can't wait to meet all of the new cuties from them.
