It is often true that things experienced in your childhood never seem to live up to the wonderful memories you had of them when experiencing them again as an adult.A woman named Waleeda is seen suffering from the disease that has spread in the kingdom. It was with this state of mind that I entered my viewing of Sailor Moon, mostly from a desire to relive some nostalgia from my youth. I can truly say that it exceeded my expectations and left all those fond memories intact.
It is one of those titles that many people know outside As with most anime fans my age, Sailor Moon was one of the first series that I watched. Though it’s probably not the first "magical girl" anime it does in my opinion define the entire genre. The first thing that is going to come to many people’s attention is going to be the artwork and sound quality. When compared to today’s standards it looks primitive and plain. The music is particularly uninspired and I doubt it was all that interesting when this show was new. The background music and sound effects feel like they are drawn out of a 80s B action movie. This show could really use a complete remastering of the audio. The voice acting though is strong and I felt the actors did a good job in portraying their characters though some of the performances, particularly from the villains are pretty campy.Īnimation wise, the colors and styles are typical of what you expect from this era. The colors feel plain and washed out a little and we don’t have a lot of the detail that many modern shows have. This is not to say it’s bad, because it’s really not fair to compare it to newer shows because the technology has changed so much, but I still think it is relevant. I gained an appreciation for it as the series unfolded and I think most people will as well. The overall story is something Sailor Moon does exceptionally well. We get introduced to Usagi right away who quickly becomes Sailor Moon and starts fighting the enemy.įrom the start we get a sampling of a bigger danger to come and it moves along fairly slowly in the beginning. Over the course of the first half of the series the other Sailor Warriors start to appear as we learn more about them and their pasts and building the friendships amongst each other. The plot does a great job of telling the origins of the Sailor Warriors and the reasons for the villain’s attacks. The last half in particular was very interesting and exciting. As a romance there is a lot to like about Sailor Moon. It treats the viewer to a serious and realistic feeling relationship that really puts its modern counterparts to shame. I found it to be the most compelling and rewarding part of the show.
