Pretty Guardian Sailormoon Trailer - English Subbed

The art style stays true to Naoko's design.​

Just got the word, VIZ media (Ranma 1/2, Bleach, Death Note, Naruto, Tiger & Bunny) will be doing the English dub.

They also have the license now for the original series. (CN's license expired.) They are re-dubbing all five of the original series unedited and on Blu-Ray. They will be digitally remastered. The first season used cheep 8mm film before the show got popular and they started throwing more money at the producers for later seasons. The cleanup will be a welcome sight. Don't expect it to be widescreen or anything as the original wasn't. It was all ink and paint photographed and edited on film, no computers.
 
I've been watching the original episodes on Hulu Plus and the footage looks REALLY good. they just got to Mercury and I'm waiting for the first of the big 3 scouts to appear. kinda glad to have another scout on the team now that Mercury has joined. Usagi isn't bad, it's just that I never watched Sailor Moon for Sailor Moon herself, even though she's not a bad character at all.
 
Am I allowed to pretend I've watched Sailor Moon?
 
I don't see a problem with it. So long as you agree that Jupiter is the strongest.
 
I am fairly hype for this at the moment given that Sailor moon was one of the first anime that I watched.

Only if you're ready to be asked a ton of questions from me and others about it.

On another note the trailer is about to reach 2 million views and the first day isn't even over yet since it's debut.

My senpais tell me otherwise.

Same. I hope it can return to the new Toonami because it was one of the main animes that got me into anime, along with Gundam Wing and DBZ

My senpais tell me otherwise.
do these senpais hate magical girl stuff?
 
I will watch it someday (at some point this year), but I've already got so many shows to go through currently
 
so, I saw in the new animation Trailer that Venus is holding beads. I haven't read the manga, but are the beads significant to her powers?

Yes. It's her "Venus Love-Me chain" which later forms into "Venus Wink Chain Sword."

also, does it seem likely that we're gonna get re-used footage as the previous anime?
 
I doubt it
the art styles are completely different
heck
the anime and manga are almost completely different

This will not be given the same treatment that was given to DBZ Kai. I think Toei learned from their last mistake.
 
yo! Simulcast streaming on July 5th!

Who's gonna try and get it asap?
 
Sailor Moon Official Announcement Trailer

Oh, the nostalgia is coming back again and in HD.​
 
I forget who even is working at ViZ right now.

I highly doubt Cherami Leigh is on the casting call...
 
she's working in LA now, but I dunno if she's done work with ViZ...
after crunching it a little
I'm gonna guess Stephanie Sheh, but that's just a guess. She's a ViZ regular, though, so I expect her to be someone at least
 
the author actually has a say in who does the voices for the dub too right?

aw, jeez. it's so hard to guess.

I would love some of the scouts to be voiced by the following though:
Laura Bailey
Kari Whalgren
or
Eden Riegel.
 
Takeuchi gave the dub cast her blessing, but they didn't say if she had any hand in picking the cast itself.

And since this is a ViZ dub we can expect a few regulars to be somewhere in the cast. Stephanie Sheh, Wendee Lee, Kari Wahlgren, Michelle Ruff, and Laura Bailey will all be in there somewhere
we can probably expect Mary Elizabeth McGlynn to be someone/everyone's mom and then some
maybe Cindy Robinson too

Mary needs to be Sailor Uranus. Her voice would suit her well.
 
btw guys, I figured you'd want to know about the Sailor Moon S.H. Figuarts.


just check out vangelus' review of the first figures.

And more are coming soon.
Sailor Jupiter will be out in August btw.

Which I can't wait to add with Mercury and Mars.

I have to admit, I seldom watched Sailor Moon; I preferred DBZ, Tenchi Muyo and Outlaw Star in those days but some years ago I started watching SM to give it a try and I really enjoyed it. Didn't have the time to finish it though, but I'll definitely watch the reboot and catch up on the old eps when I can. My favs are Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Venus and Sailor Mars - gushes-
 
Never watched Sailor Moon (I feel like I missed out) but damn those are some nice figures. If I had infinite money I would totally grab those.

they're actually not too expensive for figuarts. I'd definitely say if you have a scout who's design really speaks to you, go for it. I have a few Rider figuarts myself and they are amazing.

Problem is I really like all the characters in terms of design. It's also one of those things where if there's a series I'm gonna want all of 'em.
There's also the difficulty of justifying this to myself when I already bought two figures this month.
 
lemme just tell you, there will be plenty of these figures coming out with the series revival.

I doubt figuarts will let a gold mine like this just suddenly drop. you should be good in collecting these at a very slow pace.
 
I heard a lot of people don't like how they have this doll-like expression, but I really like it. its different from what a lot of other animes have nowadays anyway.
 
Have some opening and first transformation with fangirls going crazy, Yo!


Hey Sano, what about Sailor Moon X Kamen Rider? Yes or no?
