Who's your favourite Sailor Senshi?

[Prowler]

My favourite is Sailor Mars aka Rei Hino. She's the girl in my avatar, btw.

What about yours?

[CyberCubed]

Fun fact: The Sailor Moon girls are only 14 (in the beginning of the show), yet they're drawn and look like 17-18 year olds. It's really funny, because if this was a modern anime they'd all be drawn like "loli's" really short and more cutesy.

Since Sailor Moon came out in the 90's it's so noticeable how anime designs have changed. You never see characters drawn like this anymore.

Anyway my favorite is probably Mars or Jupiter but I'm fond of Mercury too. When Venus first appeared I thought she felt the most bland and almost a clone of Usagi, but then as the show went on her personality became more distinct and funny. She was actually pretty funny in the third and fourth series when they made her a flirt and a showoff. She's basically the most sexually provocative of all the Sailor Moon girls.

Of course you'd have to go THAT WAY, Cubed :lol: Oh God.

Anyway, Venus/Minako in the first couple of seasons of the classic SM anime is nothing like Moon/Usagi personality wise. She seems more mature than the other girls and while she takes her role seriously, it's not like she's uptight or snarky like Rei/Mars is.

But, from season 3 on, she basically became Usagi v2.0. She became the comedy releif character alongside her and also had bad grades, was unintelligent, irresponsible, etc. Which is odd because she's the first ever Sailor Senshi to awaken and she's supposed to be the leader of the Inners. Yet, the classic anime made her a spatz. In the manga she's a bit more leader like, except in the Sailor V manga which was a predecessor to the main SM manga, but she's only 12 or so in that manga, so ofc she's gonna be more immature.

PGSM Minako is totally different, though. She's a famous idol singer who's sick and dying and is by far the most mature and level-headed of the group. And also the one who takes her mission the most seriously and cares the most abotu the past. Even Rei/mars tells her to chill and let lose a bit, which is funny since Rei is usually the most serious of the bunch.

Haven't watched Crystal, so I have no idea what they're like there. I've heard it's basically the manga in anime format with all plot and nearly no down time to develop each of the characters.

Dunno if you ever read the SM manga, but 90s anime Rei is quite different from her other versions. Think of her as being the Raphael of the Sailor Moon series and the 90s anime being the Fred Wolf series of the Sailor Moon property. ;)

[CyberCubed]

It's just weird. They're all 14 yet they're all drawn tall with huge breasts and legs making them look like 18 year olds. Modern anime would make them look like 12 year olds with flat chests but still sexually cute, because that's the way things are these days.

All the people who crushed on Sailor Moon characters back in the day probably feel weird now knowing they were only 14. But I guess it's no different than Pokemon girls who are even worse since they're all 10 year olds in canon yet are all drawn like teenagers.

[Prowler]

Lol what are you even talking about? They don't have huge breasts. In fact, the only one that has big ones is Jupiter and she even mentions that's the reason she should play Snow White in a play. That's the infamous line that in the American dub became "I should play Snow White because I'm the most talented one". :lol:

You must be confusing the official anime/manga with fanart or hentai of the characters or something. They look normal in the anime/manga. Keep in mind it's a shoujo written and drawn by a female author targeted primarily at a female audience. That being said, Sailor Moon does have a quite sizeable male audience.

[CyberCubed]

I just marathoned the whole show recently with the new Viz dub, that's what they have. There's also a lot of sexual jokes in the new dub now that it's more accurate to the original, really weird how 14 year old girls are treated like sex objects. At least they don't look 14 but when they say they go to middle school it makes it obvious. Also you see their bodies when they wear dresses or casual clothes or swimsuits in various episodes.

[Prowler]

Well I'm not American, so I never watched any English dubs of the show or hell even watched the Portuguese dub of it. I got into Sailor Moon quite late. Around 2006-2007 or so when the show among other classic anime was ENTIRELY uploaded on youtube. I dunno what made me check it out at the time I guess I watched one episode out of curiosity because I started o get heavily into anime around that time and wanted to watch some classic series. next thing I knew I was watching 5-6 episodes of SM a day on youtube on my 2007 summer break.

When I was a kid, no boy openly admitted to watching Sailor Moon at all. The closest thing to "girl shows" that you could watch as a boy was the Power Puff Girls. I guess around the time I was 16 and SM was long gone from TV and I was no longer a young boy, I didn't feel insecure to watch something like that anymore. Besides, it's not THAT girly of a show. It has a lot of action and violence for a shoujo, actually.

Well, maybe that was the best way for them to grab some male audience as well. It's primarily a series for girls, but clearly a lot of teenage boys like it as well. I notice most male fans of the show seem to have Mars as their favourite Senshi. And she's known and generally considered for being the prettiest of them. Coincidence? I think not.

Btw, is it true Haruka and Michiru are cousins in the American dub? :lol: And I thought it was weird that Artemis and Luna's genders were reversed in the Portuguese dub. You see, Artemis is named after a Greek Goddess, despite him being a male. So I guess that's why he became a girl in our dub and Luna a boy. But anyone who watches SM, regardless of the version, can easily tell that Luna is female and Artemis male. Both even like each other and have a daughter named Diana. So I dunno if gender swapping was very convincing...

[CyberCubed]

There is the new Viz dub that started back in 2014 I think, the whole show was redubbed in english from the beginning with new voices, they kept the Japanese names, and translated the script accurately. So that was the dub I watched, not the old one from the 90's.

The new english dub is great and all the voices fit the characters and the jokes are translated well. Like how sometimes some jokes don't translate well in a different language but they made it funny.

Interesting. Wasn't that around the time Crystal came out as well? They actually went back to redub an old show entirely? Sailor Moon had like 200 different episodes plus some animated movies. So that's A LOT to redub. I think SM lost its license for a long time until suddenly Crystal was announced and the manga began getting sold and translated again outside of Japan. In the previous decade, SM was very easy to find online because it wasn't licensed in most countries outside of Japan anymore, but then Crystal was announced and the property became licensed all over the world again and it was no longer as easy to find entire episodes on youtube and such.

[Allio]

And there goes Cubed spouting some facts no one cares about.

[CyberCubed]

I enjoy educating people about shows with random trivia.

[Prowler]

And there goes Cubed spouting some facts no one cares about.

Not to mention he's also exaggerating. I think he's seeing more of that "stuff" than there actually is.

Cubed loves to complain about anime and how perverted it is... but then goes on and watched an 90s series entirely. All TWO HUNDRED EPISODES of them. :tgrin:

[Allio]

Could you actually imagine giving the Pokémon anime in its entirety the time of day?

Just read the different mangas. Even Gentlemen thief Pokemon is better.

[CyberCubed]

Allio, go back to rangerboard.

[Leo656]

NERD FIGHT! :lol:

[Allio]

Allio, go back to rangerboard.

Sounds like an odd correlation to me, especially when Rangerboard has an active Pokemon thread that often talks about the anime.

[ranger_scout]

For me it's Jupiter. I always have a soft spot for her because the very first episode I watched was the one where she showed everyone what a brilliant ice skater she was. Plus, her English voice actress Susan Roman stayed with the series till it ended.

[sdp]

My favorite is definitely Sailor V, before she becomes Venus. Besides that I like Saturn a lot. I also watched all of Sailor Moon but it was a few years ago like 7 so I guess that's now considered a long time :lol:

S > R > OG > Stars > Super S

S is just an amazing show all around; R has an amazing anime only filler arc in the beginning but the actual adaptation is just good; OG is great overall but not amazing; Stars is weird and not great but at least better than Super S; Super S is just horrible.

Fun fact the Mexican dub while using the dub name Serena is a faithful adaptation and dubbed all shows in the mid 90s. Yeah I never saw them as 14 year olds, it's like Saint Seiya, you have all these guys who look in their late 20s and they're all supposed to be 14.

[DarkFell]

Sailor Jupiter / Sailor Mercury / Sailor Mars.

Sailor Pluto.. she was the destructive one of the group, wasn't she? I remember the other Scouts being afraid of her power in the later episodes.

[Sumac]

Sailor Mercury.
In fact, she is the reason why I am partial to anime girls with blue hair.

In Russia, show was broadcasted in 1996 (seasons 1-3) and later in 2000s (seasons 4-5). Seasons 1-3 and 4-5 had different teams translating them and translation of the seasons 4-5 was awful, since they were translated in Russian from German, which itself was made from Japanese version of the show.

Favorite season is season 3. Least favorite are 4 and 5. 4 was boring and 5 had too many characters, so show didn't know which characters should be the focus of the show. Inners sometimes felt like they are mere cameos in their own show.

Interestingly enough, despite having Lesbian and Gay couples, as well as crossdresser later on, no-one was crying about "muh traditional values" and show was left uncensored (so no "kissing cousins" or Zoycite (sic?) or Fisheye changing sex). It was a different time in Russia.

[drgon78]

Sailor Jupiter would be first, with Saturn and Pluto tying for second place.

[Prowler]

Honestly, I think Moon, Mars and Venus are the ones that usually get the most development in the property. They're the ones who seem to get the most memorable lines and moments. Mercury and Jupiter a bit less. I think Makoto is a pretty nice girl with a bit of a sad backstory. Ami is nice and all but I can see why people would find her a bit boring. Plus, for someone whose main trait is high intelligence, she doesn't really seem particularly intelligent compared to other characters. Being smarter than Usagi or Minako(in her silly versions) is not that impressive. Sure, she's a top student and great at maths and science; but on day-to-day life and such, she doesn't seem like someone with a "200 point IQ" or something. I've always thought Mamoru/Tuxedo Mask and Michiru/Neptune are better suited for "intelligent characters".

My favorite is definitely Sailor V, before she becomes Venus. Besides that I like Saturn a lot. I also watched all of Sailor Moon but it was a few years ago like 7 so I guess that's now considered a long time :lol:

S brought some fresh life into the anime since it introduced the Outers.

Super S is my least favourite season as well. And Stars had its moments but I'm not crazy about it. Never liked the Star Lights much, myself. But the animation is top notch.

Sailor Jupiter / Sailor Mercury / Sailor Mars.

Sailor Pluto.. she was the destructive one of the group, wasn't she? I remember the other Scouts being afraid of her power in the later episodes.
I hink you mean Saturn? Pluto is the one we know the least about

Sailor Mercury.

Interesting.Thing is, the anime aired from the early to the late 90s. So it's not like it was THAT long ago. Weird how fast things can change at times.

Sailor Jupiter would be first, with Saturn and Pluto tying for second place.
Tbh, I only included the Outers in the poll because I felt they showed up in too many episodes and chapters to be left out. But I've always viewed Sailor Moon and the Inners as the most important ones/the main character.

I can see why Uranus and Neptune are popular and interesting characters, but they're not really my favourites.

Saturn has a sad backstory. Poor girl.

[turtle1237]

Jupiter hands down is the best. She strong, and has taken down the shows minions from time to time WITH OUT transforming. She can also cook, because of her size, has a hard time getting a date, and I like what? She the best one of the show.

[Prowler]

Jupiter is leading by a landslide so far.

[Coola Yagami]

Sailor Jupiter, she's as nice and warm-hearted as she is tough and she's an awesome cook. The only downside would be her comparing everything she likes about you with her former lover all the time.

[Coola Yagami]

Anime's always been like that. Ichigo Kurasaki looks way too old for school in later seasons of Bleach but is technically still 16 or so cause I think most of the anime'manga events take place within a year or two.

Anime has this odd way of drawing characters looking way older than they are when they're on their own, and yet somehow still look younger when they're standing next to actual adults of their corresponding series.

Tbh, Minako had some of the funniest lines in the show from Season S and beyond:

Sailor Moon was ahead of its time for a show that came out in the 90's:

1. We had Uranus which was a lesbian butch type character who wore mans clothes. And then Neptune who was girly and talked about sleeping with her

2. We had transgendered characters with the 3 male characters who turn into females during the final season when they transform

3. We have various eps where the girls look like they're crushing on each other, eps where Usagi is crushed on by other females by accident, etc.

4. There's an entire episode where Sailor Jupiter gets a lesbian crush on Uranus. Too bad it was only for 1 episode

5. All the female villains had huge cleavage and fanservice outfits, kinda surprising for a show where the main cast did not.

6. Tuxedo Mask being the only male character didn't overshadow the females, but he was never completely helpless either


And this was all during the 90's when gay/lesbian and transgender stuff was still viewed as "taboo" for shows even in Japan.

Tbh such characters have been around in anime/manga for a long time now and often they're used as comic relief. I'd not look at anime/manga and take it as a good representation of Japan as a whole.

Well, it's a girls show, so ofc the male characters can't outshine the heroines.

..meh screw this. I'll leave this to someone like plastron(well she's not around anymore) or something :trazz:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO0hrVFyT0U

I've never seen this scene in English but seems very faithful to the Japanese version. I remember that. It was funny.

It's interesting how Minako in he first two seasons was serious and mature. I guess it's because the anime began when he manga was in its early issues and didn't know how to establish Minako's personality at first.

Sailor Jupiter, she's as nice and warm-hearted as she is tough and she's an awesome cook. The only downside would be her comparing everything she likes about you with her former lover all the time.
That's her gag, yes. Mentioning her ex-boyfriend all the time.

It's funny how she's portrayed as unfeminine when she loves to cook and do house chores and wants to open a flower shop and a cake shop in the future. I guess it must be a cultural difference or something here.

[turtle1237]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52e_dppm7hI

Same scene, fan dub, but the words are right, this is from the redub uncensored Sailor Moon. Which is even more funny. Yes in America, they are redubbing Sailor Moon on DVD and releasing uncut. So we get the nude scenes like with Sailor Uranus transform and you saw her butt during the scene, and the dream scene with a yes, bare butt Sailor Mercury. Oh yeah and a naked Sailor Moon when she got her first power upgrade in season 2 I think it was? Yeah that was either cut or change in America.

Some curse words are not change, like Ass. Sailor Jupiter told Sailor Uranus that she was going to kick her ass, after Uranus used her as bait for the villains. Drinks are not change to juice. Yes Sailor Moon gets drunk in one social gathering. Its great to finally see the show the way it was suppose to be seen. Uncut. 1 more DVD release, and I have the whole series uncut.

[DarkFell]

I think you mean Saturn? Pluto is the one we know the least about.
I think that you're right. I mistook one Scout for another. My bad and, thanks for the correction.

[Shark_Blade]

Wow surprised many voted for Jupiter too. :o

I liked her because in the game she can do strong wrestling moves and lightning power is formidable.

[drgon78]

I am surprised as well, back in the day it seemed that all the other scouts were more popular then Jupiter, wow, how times have changed.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Voted Jupiter, but I've never actually watched it, so I don't really have one. Just picked Jupiter because it's the ruling planet of my star sign, so I guess I'd like her.

[Prowler]

Maybe it's just a coincidence that Jupiter happens to be the most popular one here.

But tbh, Jupiter is a nice girl and doesn't have any quirks that annoy or piss people off. So I can see why people like her.

Her only 'quirk' is she seems scary and unapproachable to the average person due to her height and rough tough attitude. We, the viewers, get to see she's really a big sweetheart.

She's tall... for a teenage Japanese girl, maybe. Average female height in Japan isn't very high. Usagi Tsukino is pretty short and all of the heights listed for the characters online(provided they're legit) aren't impressive either, not even for Jupiter. I mostly see her being listed as being 168cm tall... which is only a bit taller than average in most developed nations for a woman. But considering your average Japanese woman is around 157cm I guess she looks pretty tall in comparison with other girls around her age.

She is pretty much hard on the outside, but soft on the inside if that makes sense.

[Prowler]

We don't really see her in her "tough girl" self much other than the few times we see her taking down thugs who decided to mess with weaker and innocent people. So I guess she's just misunderstood.

Taking on thugs, The Villains' minions with out transforming, duking it out with Sailor Uranus, some cases, her and her fellow guardians do take a beating only to get up and win in the end. Granted, Sailor Moon took the worse beatings in these moments, Had a great death scene in season 1, only to be "Wish" back of course. I think she has proven she is pretty tough. She is the muscle of the group after all.

Yeah, she can take on a lot of guys. But seems like a good girl at the end of the day. And tbh, she seems level headed and mature enough. So I definitely see her appeal. I also think she's the nicest girl alongside Mercury. Both Jupiter and Mercury don't really have any "jerk" or "bitch" moments in the series, including all versions I've seen/read. And also don't really have any annoying moments either.

Anyway, I've always felt Mars and Venus were the most popular. I feel like whenever I tell a girl that Mars is my favourite I get the usual laugh/smile followed by "of course, guys always have Mars as their favourite since she's so pretty". Let's not forget SM actually has a surprisingly large male fanbase, and large chunks of that fanbase finds Mars and Venus attractive.

[turtle1237]

Introduction of Sailor Jupiter comparing the 2 versions, the 90's series and its reboot. Both cases she turns up in a heroic saving of Usagi from thugs, and in the reboot, saving Usagi from being run over from a car, because you know its Usagi lol. Than they keep the same scene of her sneaking up to see if she can nab some food. I love it.

Judging from alll of the above, it sounds like I chose well, lol!
