There are three Sailor Moon movies (each going along with a particular season of the show), and I actually rented each of these way back in 2000, but since I bought this semi-bootleg set quite a while ago, I decided to watch them again just to finish off my recent marathon! Each movie is barely over an hour, but they all have nice stories with a little more character insight than an average episode of the show. Sailor Moon R reveals some of Mamoru's childhood with a flower-loving alien, and Sailor Moon S (my favorite of the three) focuses on Luna the cat, who falls in love with an astronomer. The story sounds crazy, but it's really emotional and touching (especially when she gets her wish to become human just for a moment!). Sailor Moon Super S has a pretty weird plot about stealing children to power a black hole (focusing on Chibi-Moon just like the same season of the series), but at least the rest of the Sailor Soldiers appear (I like their cool attacks, especially Sailor Pluto's "Dead Scream"). Now that I've watched all of these again, I'm actually getting the urge to take on the live-action Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon all over again! Tasukete!Labels: anime, dvds, sailor moon
