Sailor Moon and Mars reacting to Sailor Chibi-Moon’s debut. Pretty fitting. Welcome back! When last we left off, we learned that The Silence is coming- a potential… Armageddon, basically. The Sailors are all still after the Talismans, along with the villains known as the Death Busters. Kaolinite and the shadowy “Professor” are still engaging in their mad scheme. EPISODES #101 & 102: It’s Usagi’s birthday! … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (101-105)

DVD Box Set wooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Welcome back! We now enter the set that includes the ONE-HUNDREDTH episode of Sailor Moon (and is thus the mid-point for the entire series). We’ve just learned that the Talismans both sides are searching for are apparently to be combined into the Holy Grail, which will be wielded by The Messiah. In short: Shit is now Biblical. This one features lots … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (97-100)

The most famous lesbian couple in the history of cartoons. Like, who’s even #2? And we’re back! When last I left off Sailor Moon S (for Super!), we were introduced to Sailor Uranus & Sailor Neptune, a pair of… VERY close young women, both of whom were on a mission to collect the mystical Talismans, same as the other Sailors. But instead of being close … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (94-96)

New goddamn Sailors- that’s right. And we’re back!! Sailor Moon S, possibly/probably the most beloved season of the massive series, started off with a bang last episode, as Usagi desperately watched her best friend (Rei/Sailor Mars) almost die. They were saved… by two MYSTERIOUS SAILORS!! Just what’s going on?!? EPISODE #91: Usagi’s Silver Crystal has stopped glowing after the last battle, and she fears she’ll … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S (91-93)

Sailor Neptune & Sailor Uranus. They steal the spotlight and steal it HARD. SAILOR MOON S In many ways, Sailor Moon S (the “S” is for “Super”- the commercial ditty says “Say-rah Moon SUUUUU-PAAAAAHHH!”) took the Sailor Moon formula and ran with the same general theme: A Faceless Energy Being From Beyond set out to destroy the world; its minions, a bunch of conniving Generals … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon S episode 1

See this guy? He’s the “Wise Vizier” character in this entire season, and spends all his time just giving advice. Except only the dumbest kids by this point didn’t realize that he’s our true Final Villain. Time for more Sailor Moon R! Esmeraude has taken leadership of the Black Moon Clan’s war against Neo-Tokyo’s past, Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask are FINALLY back together again, … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (80-84)

Finally, a new Sailor appears- the older, wiser Sailor Pluto! EPISODE #75: Another one I remember- Chibi-Usa is threatened by the Grim Man, while all of a sudden Prince Dimande brings up the “Malefic Black Crystal”, which seeks out targets. And of course Esmeraude is in love with Dimande. His brother, Prince Saphir, is also seen- he has one of the more interesting designs in … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (75-79)

More Sailor Moon reviews! When last I left off, the final episodes aired in the initial run in North America were posted here. As of this point… we reach the episodes I CAN’T quote off the top of my head! Villains I barely remember, turns that I have to actually read to recall, and more. Exciting times! So the Sailors all have their new attacks, … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (69-74)

Welcome back to more Sailor Moon reviews! Yay! We last left off with Sailor Mercury developing a new power, and we’re in the midst of another “Sailors Gain New Powers” set of episodes. Oddly enough, we just DID THAT not ten episodes earlier, but because that was a “Filler” season, the showrunners decided… to just ignore those powers forever. I mean… WHY? Why NOT shake … Continue reading Jab’s Reviews: Sailor Moon R (63-68)

SAILOR MOON R- PART TWO Sailor Moon R is split into two separate bits, the first one a mini-arc I just reviewed, meant largely as “Filler” to move things along while they waited for Rumiko Takahashi to write more of the manga. The fact that the enemy used “Draining Energy” as their core concept was a big sign of that, as that’s the point of … Continue reading Jab Reviews: Sailor Moon R (60-62)

SAILOR MOON R: The Makai (Demon… sorta) Tree, looking like a flying womb-tree-thing. Which isn’t far from what it actually is. Sailor Moon R is the name given to the second “Series” of Sailor Moon in Japan- the different arcs actually have different titles, rather than “Season 1/2/4/whatever” like you’d see over here. With the previous threat (and really, the Sailors’ ENTIRE REASON FOR EXISTING) … Continue reading Jab Reviews: Sailor Moon R (47-52)

Pictured: Literally the greatest end to a Series ever. It’s pretty hard to top “The hero’s friends love her SO MUCH that even DEATH can’t stop them from coming to assist her in killing a giant green deathbitch.” Aaaaaaaaaaaaand we’re back for the finale!! Since I’ve included a LOT of episodes-per-post, I created some fairly long articles that I’m sure some people TL; DR’d. Well … Continue reading Jab Reviews: Sailor Moon 44-46 – Season Finale!

Prince Endymion- our new General, and the brainwashed love interest of our heroine! How’s THAT for angst? And so we come to another review! We last left off with Episode #36, and we now learned that Usagi/Sailor Moon was the resurrected Moon Princess from an ancient Moon Kingdom that they’d been searching for all along (rendering a HUGE chunk of the show redundant), she now … Continue reading Jab Reviews: Sailor Moon 37-43

Sailor Venus- the fifth and final Sailor Guardian of the main cast. And we’re back!! When last I left off with these Sailor Moon reviews, we’d finished 29 episodes. Nephrite died a hero’s death, rejecting a lifetime of villainy, and our new general is the effeminate, vain Zoisite, who is after the Seven Rainbow Crystals, which the writers have clumsily told us is the ACTUAL … Continue reading Jab Reviews: Sailor Moon 30-36
