There's a lot going on, especially in the latter >>third. It doesn't help that there are a couple of inconsistancies and >>other such bits of admittedly sloppy writing which makes it even more >>difficult to follow. So this Best and Worst should be taken with a >>touch of salt. Who knows, upon further viewing, this list may change >>completely. But here's my stab at it. And, like my Best and Worst of >>the Sailor Moon anime, "Feel free to pick apart, but no flames. >>Everything is just my opinion." >> >>BEST SUPPORTING SOLDIER - Mars. Yeah, Venus was cool. But that's easy >>when you're the Leader. Mars was probably the most three dimensional >>of them all. > > Fourth dimensional, too, in that she changes over time. Her relationship > with her father, for instance, goes from "Get out of my life forever, > Father-san" to "I hurt... but MAYBE there's room for healing..." > >>WORST SUPPORTING SOLDIER - Luna (human form). Oh, gad, didn't you just >>want to choke her?! And we thought we'd escape Chibiusa in this >>series! Even her transformation made you want to scream. > > I *really* liked her fights with Kunzite, though. > >>SAILOR MOST IMPROVED FROM ANIME VERSION - Mercury. This took some >>thought. But yeah, she does much better in the live action version. >>Too bad she was virtually forgotton about as the series went on. > > There was too much focus on Ami early on. It caused the viewers > to burn out on her. > >>SAILOR LEAST IMRPOVED FROM THE ANIME VERSION - Jupiter. Well, the >>problem here is that everyone got an improvement except for Jupiter. >>Seems someone forgot about her. Too bad. I liked her. > > Although her "It is all right that I stand alone" / "Wait! My > strength increased when I no longer stood alone!" revelation > regarding Mokoto was interesting. As was his growing devotion > to her, despite her discouragements. > >>BEST EPISODE - Difficult. But I guess I'll give the nod to the one >>where Sailor Moon was taken over. There was some nice tension there. >>This is probably one of the catagories that will change upon further >>viewing. > > You mean the one where Kunzite tried to turn her into a youma, or > where Serenity took over and Princess Sailor Moon started pounding > the crap out of everybody who was not Endymion? > >>WORST EPISODE - Special Act. Puff piece, little plot, no >>characterisation. A reunion show and nothing else. To top it off, you >>were always looking around the corner wondering if Para Para was going >>to show up. Thankfully no. > > Para Para would have brought some life into it... > >>BEST ENEMY - Kunzite. Oh, I was really rooting for Nephrite as I have >>a soft spot for him from the anime, but Kunzite was definately the >>funnest character. I just wanted to see more of him. > > 'Funniest'? > > Try angst-riden, driven, cunning, and most capable. Kunzite was > a walking embodiment of the Dark Side for quite a while there. > >>WORST ENEMY - Jedeite. Like Jupiter, he barely got anything to do. >>Perhaps if he wasn't so busy kissing Queen Beryl's tail... > > No, Mio was the worst. And she WOULDN'T GO AWAY!!!!!!! > >>BEST SUBPLOT - Mercury's takeover. Oh yeah. That really piered the >>Sailor's seeming impenetrable shield and made everything seem less >>secure. Opened thing up for later, the audience knowing that nothing >>is safe anymore. > > DarkMerury was a fascinating, if kind of limited, character. A > nerdly outcast whose bad side was suddenly given free rein. > > And DarkAmi had much better clothing sense than NormalAmi. ^_^ > >>SADDEST CHARACTER - Hirai Aiko. It's possible I got the name wrong on >>this one. But it was Mamoru's fiancee. She adored him, but her love >>was unreturned. In the end, she lost out to Usagi. Sad sad. > > Her love wasn't starcrossed, it was mooncrossed. > > Before Mio showed up, she was at the top of most people's hate > list. After Mio, many of those who couldn't stand her decided > she wasn't so bad, after all... > >>BEST DEATH - Venus. I was so happy that they didn't chicken out and >>"find a cure". And the way they did it...so sudden. There and gone. >>Great stuff! And to top it off, Mars' scream at the end pushed the >>emotions over the edge. I couldn't have written it better. > > PGSM seemed to focus more on emotions than anything else... > >>MOST UNDERSTATED PROBLEM - If Serenity's emotions trigger the Silver >>Crystal, then Endimyon isn't the problem. Serenity can't fall in love >>with ANYONE as the results would probably be the same. Poor girl. > > "You're a whiny boy crazy loose cannon berserker who's going to get > us all killed thanks to that magic deux de machina glitterrock > you've got on your chest in a cheap Sentai toy setting with neon > highlights." > >>MOST RIDICULOUS STATEMENT - "These events are an act of fiction" or >>some such disclaimer that was at the end of one of the episodes. >>Really, do the Japanese need disclaimers like this? I mean, Americans >>yes. But Japanese? Shhh! Don't tell them Godzilla is fake, too. >>Might send the country into a national shock! > > GODZILLA IS FAKE?!?!? > > Oh... noes... > >>IN THE NAME OF THE MOON, WE WILL PUNISH YOU - For that clock in the >>upper left hand corner. (TV Nihon version) Coulnd't get a raw version >>without it, eh? Fortunately, you do get used to it. > > A countdown so schoolkids knew how much longer they had before > they had to run for school. > >>BEST CANDIDATE FOR A SECOND SEASON - Tie between S and Stars. S, even >>though it is just a carbon copy of the steal-energy plots, has Tomoe >>and the Outers. I'm just dying to see what they would do with the >>characters of the Outers. perhaps give Uranus some military >>intelligence. Certainly Saturn and Pluto would come off better, being >>one dimensional in the anime. Stars, though being a mess until half >>way though, has a very intereting idea in the Sailor Wars. That would >>be a great idea for a second season. > > Unfortunately the chances of a second season are less than your's > of finding a real magic broach and becoming the new Sailor Moon... > >>Well, there you have it, my best and worst. As before, please address >>all flames to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Especially if they're REAL flames... > >>Lighthope > > FW > ------------------------ Yahoo!
