Ah nice, Sailor Venus' debut. I think her voice fits.

Look like she reveals a bit of info about the Dark Kingdom. Artemis also makes its debut this episode. Overall, it was a good buildup I suppose. I'm not sure about this Kunzite guy. A direct attack like that at Tokyo Tower? Heh.

I thought the fight was okay. HEALING MOON ESCALATION. And this was also quite something with the kiss

So Usagi gets saved again, then she boldly claims that they'll take care of the enemy, and then she immediately becomes a liability again and needs to be saved again. I don't remember much from the manga, but I really hope she's done being so incompetent now, it's beyond annoying.

Good start on developing Minako's personality. I hope they can fuse the best parts of each previous version and deliver a great character. That's really a weak point in this incarnation of SM -- the extremely streamlined nature of the storytelling leaves very little if any time for character development for anyone other than Usagi and maybe Mamoru.

Interesting how Minako recognized

Too bad it's two weeks away. Ugh.

Overall, I felt invested in the episode. Granted there were a lot of nitpicky spots, but at least it was better than the last few episodes where I just wanted it to end. Good cliffhangers will do that.

The Sailor Scouts are having a hard time with Kunzite. All their attacks leave no damage or have any affect on him. Not even the Healing Moon Escalation was able to do damage.

Usagi gets back at Tuxedo Mask by kissing him. He stole a kiss from her while she was sleeping, and here she steals a kiss from him. Tuxedo Mask taking the blast to protect Sailor Moon and the girls. What a way to end the episode, with a cliffhanger.

Kunzite is badass! Why wasn't he the first one to go after the Sailor Guardians? That would've been the best move for the opponent side.

Once again, Tuxedo Mask saves Usagi and in return, gets a sudden kiss. Tbh, I want to see her save herself for once.

Best part of the show: Introduction of Sailor V (Minaki Aino). She could easily become the best Sailor Guardian.

I was going to complain about them making us wait for the "BIG REVEAL" till next ep, but then I skimmed through the manga and saw that the episode ended exactly where the chapter ended. You know, I'm actually really amazed with how they have manged to stay very true to the manga (story and timing wise) while still managing add in little alterations. I look forward to seeing what they do with the Shitennou since they are still alive. I am really hoping they are going to address the past live relationships between the Shitennou and inner senshi in some way. They already seem to be hinting at it (With Sailor V saying 'Remember your true self' and Kunzite hesitating for a second) so I'll keep my figures crossed ^__^

- Minako is so mature...
- Artemis' voice doesn't fit at all [in my opinion].
- That impulsive kiss was probably the best scene of the whole episode, besides the great battle.
- Sailor V's transformation sequence was incredibly forgettable. I don't know why, though.
- That thing they're doing with the 4 Generals is a great idea. When Minako said "you didn't use to be like that" and he hesitated...

Yeah, it kind of was. I think part of it is because she didn't SAY anything before transforming..... that just felt weird.

Though, my theory on why she didn't say anything before transforming is....


Only reason I can think of.

Can't believe I forgot to wake up early to watch this. I was tired from work I guess.

Anyways waaau the suspense in this episode was wow!

I believe Sailor Venus is saying she is the princess to protect the real one. I think, and she and artemis both have their memories from their previous lives. If Artemis filled Luna now with the facts, I wonder if they will tell the others as well.

Lol Sailor Moon is totally different this time, And Tuxedo Kamen noticed it, err Endimyon. Endymyon? lol...

awesome ep for sure!

That would be rather SSJ3 haha


As for the Episode I really like it. And like anyone else I think we have a nice cliffhanger here.

IMO Venus' and Arthemis' VA are good. I personally like Minako's VA better. I even like how Beryl get's more screentime compared to the old Anime, where she was mostly sitting on her throne and complaining about the generals failed jobs. Minako's Henshin was really good too.

And now wait 2 damn weeks for the episode gosh... But still it's better, than what is waiting for us after episode 10... I'm starting to freak out happily only thinking about waiting 3 weeks again for a episode ._ ."

Besides that I'm getting really curious and excited for episode 14 and possibly a new opening. I hope we get a new song and not only a new animation <crossing fingers>

I think Minako sounds fine. But maybe it's because I've long forgotten how any of their original voices sound like :P

The ending was kind of funny (sorry) because right after Tuxedo Kamen saves Usagi, then Usagi so powerfully jumps up to the top to deal with Kunzite again, but then proceeds to be saved again by Tuxedo Kamen.

And wooow that preview sure spoils a lot. Still excited to see it happen though ^^

What?! No "Crescent Beam"? Aww...

Sailor Venus's transformation was a bit different than before. The "shiny" parts were different, but the part after she is costumed is about the same.

Woa, that kiss!

With the interplay between Venus and Kunzite it looks like the mangaka is getting her way with the remake and the four generals may have a different fate this time around...something to look forward to. That was one of the more awesome anime kisses that I've seen, and it is only episode 8--I'm surprised that alone didn't bring back Mamoru's memories...

Wow, this episode had me hanging on every moment, and when it ended I was like, NOO! The pacing was spot on, the plot was perfect, and the revelations of Minako's personality were great. I'm sure someone will come along and nitpick the art but honestly? I didn't notice any significant errors. Maybe because the entire episode just felt overall good.

I think that's the issue here. Admittedly the art has gotten better as we've progressed, but it's also taking a backseat because the plot and pacing are done incredibly well. I really liked everything about this episode and I definitely voted it a solid 5.

Usagi's kiss was bold and signified a maturation in my opinion. I think the sense of "direction" in having the "Princess" to protect and thus some measure of their progress has further spurred her development as a character. However, I understand and am equally frustrated by the fact that as soon as she pulls her badass face on she ends up being in need of rescue -- yet again. It felt a little cheap to me, but I really hope that over time we get to see the full maturation of Usagi that we didn't really get in the first anime.

Really looking forward to the tragedy that is Minako (as sad as it is) and hopefully some Shittenou revelations?? For once, I'm legitimately waiting for the next episode and am frustrated I have to wait two weeks for it.

Damn, I spitted all my coffee straight over Sailor V, when Artemis said that she is Princess Serenity. I really must be old, because I don't remember this part.
About Princess Serenity...

Of course you wake up Kunzite, when he is peacefully sleeping in his green bubble. He must have been bored of the wait, and decided to take a nap. I guess attacking him without telling him beforehand is a breach of some sailor senshi aesthetics...
Oh, look! Sailor Jupiter has her own green bubble!

Now that Usagi stole a kiss from Mamoru, I hope everyone is happy :D

I had to pinch myself a few times during the episode with Artemis and V saying that Minako is Serenity. That's about the biggest line of BS I've heard in this series yet.

But that said Minako currently is a complete 180 from the original series, can't tell if I like this development or not...and also NO CRESCENT BEAM!

But I still got SUPREME THUNDER!!!

YESSS!!!! Sailor V has been formally introduced! It's weird that she didn't say anything before transforming but... the reason will be revealed in the next episode.

The changes made from the manga are ok so far. I'm curious with the direction they'll take with the Four Generals next.

I'm not sure how I can survive for the next two weeks. Waiting for a new episode is torture! Pls make this a weekly anime!

Lol why did Sailor V's sailor suit change like, 3 times within the first five minutes...she started with her blue and red outfit, then had her blue and orange outfit, and then her bow turned red...wut

Also, I wasn't so crazy about Artemis' voice.

And okay, when Sailor Moon was hit by the Kunzite and fell off the tower (and was then saved by Tuxedo Mask), why in the world would she jump right up in front of Kunzite again (especially without even attacking or anything)??? That was kind of annoying.

Pretty good episode, since Sailor Venus is my favorite. I also loved the flashback scenes, I think they were really beautiful. The cliffhanger, next week will be great. Saddens me a lot of people dropped this early on.

[spoiler]
I'm looking at the equivalent manga chapter and yup, it's in there. (Specifically, the Tokyopop printing, Act 8. Sailor V) And the subsequent chapter (Act 9. Princess) talks about how Venus was meant to be a decoy. This is revealed by Luna, after the memory restoration.
