Well I like the promotional image. I like the girls being girls. Right now they seem too grown up and serious for me.

But isn't that how the manga is though? When Usagi is Sailor Moon she doesn't really look like a 14 year old girl anymore. But when she is Usagi again she looks like the little preteen she is. To me it feels like the new anime is following that. When Usagi was in her civilian form she still looked like a girl but once she changed she looked like a woman. That's just my opinion though. uwu.

I think that it's possible to make it happen in 26 episodes- I don't think that there's much worse than a series that overstays its welcome, and being someone who still goes back and watches series older than SM I'm used to a certain "quality" of animation. 

So, going beyond that, the thing that really brought me back to more recent anime series was that people were willing to adapt or remake series that once again had protagonists that I could feel comfortable with liking and wanting to succeed. If this show can do that (again) then I'm probably in for the duration.

Rei even said that Usagi's intelligence level disappears along with her transformation   

Also a clearer and bigger version of that image

Meanwhile, other persons have put together a comparison to express their toast-related concerns.

finally a good quality scan. original size HERE

Been seeing that floating around tumblr, along with some other scans from the magazine article its from. I like the photo (reminds me of all the times in classic anime where they were at parlor), but the way they draw Usagi's head and her neck is super awkward even for anime.

Hey this trailer features some of the new background music. THAT CHOIR THO.

I really like it! But I've seen people (not on here obv on other social media sites) say it sounds more like the 90s music from the english dub and praising that its better than the cheesy original Japanese music. Um what... did we even watch the same show?  

And it sounds a million times better than the 90s dub music too. xD I love the old dub music but i think its a little insulting to this new music to compare the old dub music to this. *gets off soap box*

I'm just wondering if anyone knows where Canadians can watch the new episodes? Hulu is for Americans only

I've never watched the dub but I did think it was really weird to compare the two. I think people just need to stop comparing Crystal with the old anime in general but it's not going to stop anytime. Especially since Moon Pride is coming out in a few days. Can you imagine it? 

"WTF! THIS ISN'T MOONLIGHT DENSETSU. UGGGH." or "UGH WHY DIDN'T THEY JUST REDO THE SONG FROM THE DUB?"

Well I know you can watch it on crunchyroll, Viz's website, and the one website that starts with an N. Nico nico or something like that. Codename Sailor B somewhat explains a way to watch it on hulu if you live outside of the US.

Sailor Moon Crystal will be available to Crunchyroll’s audience in the following territories: U.S.A, Canada, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America (Central and South America including Mexico).

So... Crunchyroll?

I personally think the choir music reminds me a lot of Madoka Magica. >_>

Don't you have to pay for crunchyroll though?

From the website:

As you may recall, Sailor Moon Crystal is coming to Crunchyroll! The reboot is set to broadcast every 2 weeks on Saturdays starting on July 5, at 3:00am Pacific Time for its premium and free members.

Ahh, thanks!!

I think the BGM sounds good! The choir fits it well, and I am looking forward to hearing more.

To be honest, I was keeping my hopes up for Crunchyroll to have Sailor Moon Crystal available in Europe, but it is understandable they cannot get licenses for all regions. I haven't heard anything of Niconico not streaming worldwide (do tell me if this is the case), so I may be considering the Niconico membership.

i think they only stream in Japan, however you can use that Chrome plug-in, Hola! and it will work like a proxy, covering up your IP so it would look you're in JP

No, you can watch Niconico from wherever. I've watched videos there before without the need of proxy add-ons. That's why I'll be watching Crystal there.

I'll probably be watching it like sometime on Sunday or Monday so it's going to be hard to avoid spoilers lol mostly cause I'll be tempted to go check out what you guys thought before I saw it @.@

I'm so excited! 9 days you guys! 9 DAYS omg



A part of me still can't really believe it is true haha

I KNOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!

i'm subscribing to crunchyroll 'cause they'll have brazilian portuguese subtitles \o/

I suppose I should get my butt in gear and subscribe eh?
