| How nostalgic... I really liked the art style (although that CG transformation scene looked absolutely terrible) The subs could've been better though... I mean really?  |
| Damn, Sailor Moon is such a priss lmao but I still adore her <3 Looking forward to more ^^ |
| AMAZING!!! I LOVED IT Q_Q CRIES.- ALL PERFECT BIut.. that 3d Transformation, no... D: but pkaY THE REST WAS PERFECT |
| This episode was pure shoujo - in the best way possible! I love the little lingering scenes between Usagi and Mamoru. It's not exactly the highest quality of animation and character design I've seen, but it's done competently and the most important thing is they got the tone just right to suck me into its magic. Atmospherically, it's gorgeous and magical. I was never exactly a part of the Sailor Moon phenomena but I'm looking forward to this adventure. Just...lose that CG transformation, please. |
| This was as stupid as I remembered it. Still, very entertaining. |
| I will never get used to the new transformation, such a shame |
| I wouldn't have liked it without the nostalgia. |
| Wow I really enjoyed this. MOAR :V |
| As long as Usagi does not CONSTANTLY get saved by Tuxedo Mask like she did in the original series, I am all in!! 9/10 |
| Too Much ANIME......Not enough LIFETIME!!!!!! |
| as someone who didn't watch the original show and is now taking the chance to know this story, i can tell i am not really impressed, but i didn't dislike it at all i think that this show is enjoyable for anyone who likes anime |
 |
| The opening theme song was pretty nice although I prefer moonlight densetsu of course. The cgi transformation didn't bother me at all, really. And everyone seems a little more aware of what's going on. Like they never even mention the moon crystals until a good amount of episodes later. (Post-Nephlite) All in all, I give it 4/5. Can't wait for the nexr episode! :D |
 |
| Usagi here doesn´t seem so childish like the original anime, I liked that, also liked a lot the feelings this episode gave me, only read a little of the manga to understand how would it be adapted and I liked it, will follow this to the end. |
| My childhood memories remembering but still I'm not getting use to the new music I feel like the magic kinda fade away, hopefully I'll get use to it with the upcoming episodes but is this really following the manga right? |
 |
| Well, I liked it, though I need to get used to the new designs. The nostalgia power is too strong in this one. |

YEs. First episode was almost 1 by 1 adaptation of first chapter. |

Morridine said: The voices. Well I can't complain here, I liked Mamoru's voice, sounded pretty hot. He looked that too. Lol. The only voice I didn't like was Usagi's. The old version or just say the YOUNGER version of her voice (actress) was a lot better. It had those moments when Usagi was turning serious or sad and then it sounded like you wanted to hug her. Such a sweet, delicate, velvety voice.... It sounds nothing like it now. And there WERE moments she could have sounded like that.... but I guess the actress got too old for that. Too bad. I know Usagi's VA is the same, but I definitely agree with you. I mean you can tell it's the same VA too, but it just doesn't sound the same, obviously because it's been years. I actually found Usagi's voice to be quite annoying a few times in this episode >< And maybe it's also because the new art style makes Usagi look more mature and so the voice doesn't seem to fit the image, whereas in the old version, Usagi looked younger. Not a big problem though, I'll just have to get used to it. Other than that, it was a good first episode :) But I'll always miss the old OP song. Wow, I have a strong urge to rewatch the old series now lol. I haven't even watched all the old ones either and can barely remember them. |

| Nostalgia is enough to make me watch this and I really liked the first episode! I like how all the girls look (beautiful like in the manga, can't wait to see the other girls), but I need to get used to how the guys look (especially Motoki). I don't know is it their chin :D ? It's refreshing to see that the show has a more serious tone already. I hope they will remake the transformaton scene sometime. It's too long and looks totally out of place -.-. But I guess the thing I miss the most is the badass (:D) music from the original series. There are some tracks in the original series which I really miss and where I hoped to hear a remake version :(. Still I am excited to see the following episodes. |
| Days need to be longer. 24 hours isn't enough ... |
| I liked almost everything about it except for Usagi's face. It seems like she is so expressionless. Its weird. I don't like that. But everything else I liked :D |
 |
| Woah that was really good! the CGI transformation is kinda out of place but still so beautiful!! Damn those bishies and those big pretty eyelashes... I'll start the manga simultaneously watching this new Sailor Moon series ^^ |
| That was horrible. 1/5 |
 |
| Never watched the Sailor moon but this was enjoyable to me. i will be here next week. ;) |
| I don't know how Usagi's seiyuu sounded back in the past, but now it just doesn't work and you can hear how old the voice actress really is. Anyway, it wasn't as great as I thought it'd be as a non-original-watcher, but decent and I'm looking forward to more. I expected it to be like Please Save My Earth because people compared the two. I like the art for the boys. They're quite handsome. But for the girls, I find the eyes too big and hair too big as well. Oh right, that CGI is gross. |
| What could have been... ;_; |
| Jojolion anime when? |
| It was alright, to be honest I wasn't too big on the first series at the beginning either so my reaction here is pretty consistent with that. It is indeed kind of strange to keep Usagi's VA and not the rest, though to be honest I was kind of surprised when I read in this thread that Mamoru's voice wasn't the same as his original. The OP isn't that great, but the chances of it matching up to one of the all time great anime OP's was pretty small anyway. I'm also not too crazy about the transformation sequences, though I heard that the manga didn't have those very often anyway so that may be the case here as well. This is kind of getting me into the mood of seeing the rest of the old anime or maybe even giving the manga a look. |

| That was great, got major FEELS and will be looking forward to watching this :D SAAAAILLOOOR MOOOOOOOOOOOOON :D |
| I liked the CG transformation but at the same time I wished it just wasn't CG. Loved the OP, I think I watched it like 5 times, loved how it sounded like the Sailors were singing themselves. I am not a fan of the ED though. I'm okay with not having Moonlight Densetsu since this is a 'fresh' start to the Sailor Moon series. I just hope that they keep the Star Locket theme later on. I love it!! I'm SOO glad that Mamoru's voice actor doesn't have that nasal tone. I hated the original voice. Overall, not a bad start. Can't wait a friggin' fortnight for the next episode. <3 |
| Riding on the nostalgia won't be enough to make this a successful show, I think. But it's probably too early to tell. I kind of like the CG better than the regular animation. I like Luna's voice though and I'm looking forward to some of the Venus effects we saw in the OP. I'm gonna stick around at least until then. |

Sinnamon said: I am thinking more then 200 eps this time? No, not going to happen. This new Sailor Moon is 26 episodes total and will cover both Sailor Moon and Sailor Moon R in terms of the original anime. This is fine since the only reason the old anime had so many episodes was cause it was chock full of crappy filler, monster of the day stuffs. The manga's plot was lightning fast on the other hand. Sinnamon said: Not a fan of - Tuxedo mask is in his tuxedo, the exact one he wears when he "transforms" I kind of liked the original with his chill sunglasses. This is how it was supposed to be. Tuxedo Mask in the beginning didn't have any "powers". His tux was always a plain ordinary tux. He started out as a thief on the hunt for the silver crystal, cause of some dreams he's been having basically. Sinnamon said: - Bun head <-- will look into that I watched it last night. I am not sure if I remember that in the Japanese original version or I am thinking the english version I just like odango/meatball head better pretty sure that was what it was before sounded better. They didn't actually change this. He started off calling her something different but switched to Odango atama after she yelled a bit lol. |

| Few maxims have done as much harm as, "Children should be seen and not heard." |
| I had a GREAT first impression from episode 1. It really makes me look forward to the rest of the series. ^.^ The only thing that struck me the wrong way was the CGI in the transformation sequence. I hope they change it. |
| It was a fun episode to watch overall, I'm not a big fan of the CG transformation, but I'll get used to it. Cant wait to see the other Sailor Scouts. |
 |
| the only problem was the bad cgi of the transformation sequence. i also wish that usagi had more facial expressions. however, the voice acting made up for that. great and entertaining 1st episode |
| I love everything about the transformation sequence except the CGI. First half > second half but for TUXEDO KAMEN. I know that it's in the manga as well as the original anime, but I'm getting monster of the week vibes. (Please do not do this to us, show.) Somehow still shots express none of the vivacity of the animation. Neither did the PV. I am pleased. |
 |
| I don't think Usagi got "too old"; I think the gag or the uppity impression of the original SM anime was toned down. I hope it changes later since there were plenty of gag scenes in comic. HArd to say; everything is so bright and bubbly. This is just ep 1. An opinion shouldn't be so final. It did the whole first chapter quite nicely. MAMO LOOKS DELICIOUS! Anyways, waiting for ep 2. |

| Just finished rewatching the first series last month so it is fresh in my mind. That being said there were some positives and negatives I found in this version. The negatives: While the OP is ok, it is no Moonlight Denetsu--it didn't really seem to fit the romantic content of the series. I'm also not entirely happy with the translation of the ED, I think there were probably better interpretations that could have been made to the lyrics. I find the new female character designs to be unrealistic (and verging on anorexic). I thought the original was much more realistic--particularly for Usagi, Ami, and Makoto who looked more like a random collection of school girls who still had some physical maturing to do. The positives: Updated animation. Mamoru looks a lot more bishie in this version. It might just be the print, or the upgraded resolution, but this looks a lot better than the original 46 episode run (ie: the POV of Usagi falling down the stairs) Instant chemistry between Mamoru and Usagi. This seemed to take quite a while longer in the first series (but I miss him calling her dumpling head). Things to watch for: It looks like they're cutting down the first season from 46 to 26 episodes, so we may miss some of the goofy MotW episodes that really didn't add much. If they are following the manga instead of the anime, does that mean we're going to miss the minor romances that cropped up between anime only or minor characters and the other senshi? Thus far it looks pretty quick paced, but I don't think I'll like the every other week schedule--on the bright side this allows me to finish the remaining 150 episodes in the first series (and allows everyone to rewatch the original or reread the manga to make comparisons). |

I'm also not entirely happy with the translation of the ED, I think there were probably better interpretations that could have been made to the lyrics. Considering the main focus is not really romance but a group of girls beating various evil villains, i' say it fits far more. ITs also far more empowering song than the previous one. If they are following the manga instead of the anime, does that mean we're going to miss the minor romances that cropped up between anime only or minor characters and the other senshi? Yes. To say the least. In return we will get deeper(or different) relationships for other characters. Also actually "the first season" will be done un ~13 episodes if they continue following manga. Then the next episodes will be the second season. |

AriaV3 said: It was so similar to the manga! I can't wait for the next episode! just think we have people on here saying this show is too serious! I can't even comprehend how stupid of a comment. This is supposed to be pretty faithful to the manga. From what ive seen Amazing job Toei |
