Sailor Moon Super S : 3 of 5
8.06.2006 11:56 AM \| Link	It's a major anime accomplishment to finish an entire season of Sailor Moon, so I'm glad to say I've completed watching all 39 episodes of Sailor Moon Super S (which is technically the fourth season)! You may remember that I was obsessed with trying to buy the DVD set, since I wanted the official US release, but I just broke down and bought a nice cheap import set (I don't know if it's officially licensed, but I don't care - the quality is great and the English subtitles are fine). This season always gets bad reviews because it's too "cute" (which is hard to do when you're talking about Sailor Moon), and I can understand what they mean, since most of the stories focus on Sailor Chibi Moon and her magical horse friend Pegasus. I still enjoyed the series, though, even though the traditional final exciting episodes where everything gets serious weren't really that dramatic - everything had a little too much fantasy for me. There are two main sets of villains, the Amazon Trio and the Amazoness Quartet, and they seek out people with "beautiful dreams", because Pegasus is hiding inside someone's dream. Every battle ends with Pegasus showing up, which gives the Sailor Soldiers the power to transform with new special powers (and the new attacks are pretty cool). The little kitty Diana is part of the show, too, and she's the future offspring of Luna and Artemis, much the way Chibiusa is the daughter of Usagi and Mamoru - doesn't that make perfect sense? It was fun to watch all the episodes, even though the first three seasons were much better. I just feel compelled to watch them all - on to the fifth season! Labels: anime, dvds, sailor moon
