i think i really hated the "mamoru gets an apocalyptic vision of the future and BREAKS UP WITH USAGI FOR NO REASON" plotline the last time but i just let it ride this time and it really grew on me

venus was too much of a goody two shoes.

this post is hilarious to me because minako does not have much of a personality besides always saying aphorisms incorrectly

she's definitely the weakest link, i remember fanfic REALLY struggling to know what to do with her. you'd think her previous work as a non-transforming vigilante hero would be good for some conversation but nope.haha i'd forgotten about those half-measure powerup episodes! i think i thought they were cool because something was "happening." also we didn't have the rest of R, so we never got to any better upgrades.

i'd also forgotten about the "moonlight knight" plot, which is...... stupid
― Doctor Casino, Saturday, 18 April 2020 11:07 (four years ago) link
it's so dumb!!! the reveal that moonlight knight is some physical manifestation of mamoru's lost memories???? terrible!!!!

thread has inspired me to rewatch the first season again, a couple of episodes a night before sleep is just what i need at the moment

it’s really comforting!

i'm two episodes into sailor moon s and it's just as good as i remembered. everything's kind of at its peak: the humor, the character moments, the sick new sailor moon transformation sequence, maybe my favorite of the show
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Saturday, 18 April 2020 18:32 (four years ago) link
and for some reason they kept the ending theme from sailor moon r, at least for now, and it's my favorite ending theme so i'm pleased

all of the monsters are so wacky and cool in this season! in the second episode there's a cat monster that emerges from a puzzle and she keeps crumbling into puzzle pieces whenever she's attacked, it's awesome. and the car monster in episode three is hilarious. screech! vroom!

uranus' "world shaking" is the most badass sailor guardian attack
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Saturday, 18 April 2020 20:21 (four years ago) link
this is the BEST show

lmao chibi-usa's one power, "pink sugar heart attack," is so hilarious

brad you're really selling me on picking this up as my late night fall asleep viewing

i would argue sailor moon s is one of the best seasons of television ever
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Monday, 20 April 2020 03:39 (four years ago) link
S was also my favorite season by far. The only season I actually owned on DVD

for some reason i'm only now registering how much sailor saturn's story is like a real fucked up abusive situation
also only now realizing that usagi sent chibi-usa back in time to "make friends with people in the twentieth century" SPECIFICALLY so she'd make friends with hotaru/sailor saturn. as usual, usagi is low-key really smart

friendship saves the world from the apocalypse... again!!!!!!!
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Tuesday, 21 April 2020 17:25 (four years ago) link
really enjoying the rewatch. forgot how over the top cartoony the facial expressions are, like there will be three amazing expressions one after the other in one Usagi reaction shot that completely crack me up. was surprised that Sailor V was a thing from the first episode. also that meme about Tuxedo Mask showing up and then leaving after saying "my work here is done" without actually doing anything is so spot on haha.

ok spoilers for the third season i guess but when pluto saves uranus and neptune from a helicopter crash by STOPPING TIME???? that's the coolest thing i've ever seen

oh fuuuuck sailor saturn is here to kick ASS

i'm rewatching from the beginning again. i never got past sailor moon s on the last rewatch bc i got distracted by 1) discovering sailor moon s was directed by kunihiko ikuhara 2) watching revolutionary girl utena over and over again
