I was originally going to reply to Katie Skyye's thread but I didn't want to hijack so I thought I'd just make a new thread.
After much procrastinating I finally decided to watch PGSM and thought I'd make a thread sharing my experience, idea for this kind of thread goes to Miki, at least I think Miki was the first one to think of it. I don't know. But before I begin my review of the first three acts there is one thing I have to say.
I like her hat. In fact... Mako's hat should be my hat! *takes her hat* There, that's better. Now!
Act 1
*Wives, mothers, daughters, hide your jewelry! It's the terrifying, mesmerizing
Tuxedo Bandit!
*But never fear! Sailor V is here!
Get him, Sailor V!
*Opening credits are nice. I love the song.
*It's Usagi!
*Usagi's younger brother!
*Usagi's mother!
*Usagi is late for school but wait, what's this? It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a--
*
LUNA!
*Luna has been stuffed! Luna, what did they do to you!?
*Faceplant! Poor Luna. And did she literally fall from the moon?
*Usagi is late and the teacher stretching her face reminds me of every grandmother in America.
*Ami! I see Ami!
*Naru!
*Karaoke!
*They. Keep. Switching. From. Frame. To. Frame. I. Can't. Keep. Up. Getting... Dizzy...
*Instead of it being a Jewelry Store it's a Jewelry Show with models.
*Usagi: I'm not a model! Mamoru: No one would think you are. Ooh! Another victim of...
the Tuxedo Bandit.
*Trouble afoot as Jadeite appears and Naru's mother is taken over by a youma with three water arms! "Look mom, I got three hands!
*Usagi crashes on her bed, stuff Luna just chillaxing.
*Ooh, the Senshi gets cellphones this time around.
*The next day Naru is suspicious that her mother is not her mother. Good on you, Naru.
*Jadeite poke of doom! Naru goes to sleep.
*Usagi senses Naru is in danger and tries to get into the show after being denied entry, then she falls on Luna (we have got to stop meeting like this)
*Usagi manages to get in by disguising herself as a model via snapshot of another model.
*Usagi transformed into Sailor Moon! Hooray!
*Ooh! She gets the Moon Stick early on.
*Sailor Moon saves the day!
*Oh no! Jadeite threw an ice spike (I forget) at her. Look out, Sailor Moon!
*
Ice? This looks like a job for the Tuxedo Bandit!
*Jadeite flees, Tuxedo Mask leaves and Sailor Moon hearts go thump, thump, thump (that's the sound a heart makes, right?)
Act 2
*Queen Beryl is not pleased about Sailor Moon's awakening, no sir.
*Luna shows Usagi her secret hideout, it's really cool!
*Usagi got a bad grade again, mama gonna kill her.
*Girls be gossiping about Ami. You leave Ami alone!
*Luna is the Sailor Soldier tracker. She's led to Ami and thinks she's a Sailor Soldier.
*Ami finds Luna faceplant (she's always doing that) and talks to her all formally.
*Usagi enters the scene.
*D'aww, they seem to be hitting it off.
*D'aww, Ami is looking forward to lunch tomorrow.
*Usagi is excited about Ami being a Sailor Soldier
*Usagi tells Ami. Oh no, Ami thinks she's only wants to be friends because they're soldiers. No, Ami, it's not like that
*Usagi tells Luna she doesn't want Ami to be forced to be Sailor Mercury. You tell her, Usagi.
*Usagi's mom assigned her to Cram School to improve her grades. Hah.
*OMG it's kid cram school. Poor Usagi
and the Tuxedo Bandit burns her again.
*Ami avoids passing out by the youma by listening to Aino, Minako music. It's a life saver!
*Oh noes, the youma is chasing Ami!
*Oh noes, she's falling!
*Sailor Moon got her!
*Now they're both hanging on for dear life!
*Aww, they made up.
*Oh no! Ami fell!
*Falling, falling, falling... HOLY TRANSFORMATION SAILOR MOON! It's Sailor Mercury!
*Hah! Take that, youma!
*Jadeite fails again, Tuxedo Mask finds the development interesting.
*Jadeite already plotting his next strike.
*OMG REI-CHAN! It's Rei-Chan! Ahh! Now it's over.
Act 3
*The girls are talking about disappearances.
*Usagi invites Ami to eat with her friends but she doesn't
*Usagi asks why she didn't and Ami explains it's to keep people from suspecting them to be Sailor Soldiers, but I suspect there's more to it.
*They go back to Luna's hideout
*OMG it's a quiz game! Luna: How many soldiers do we have left to find? Me: Three! Ami: Two. Luna: Correct! Me: Wat? Usagi: I knew that! Me: Usagi knew something I didn't? WAT!?
*Ami pwns Usagi and myself at the quiz, Luna explains what the silver crystal is again to Usagi who didn't listen the last time. They talk about Sailor V and Luna says she's going to investigate her more. Ooh.
*Usagi and Ami be walking, talking, and they bump into Rei.
Epic Rei stare. I'm in love.
*Rei drops something and Usagi picks it up.
*Usagi tries to give it back to her but the crows scares her away.
*Usagi and Ami talks about the missing girls some more, Usagi's mom comes in and starts sitting on Usagi. My mom would totally do that to me.
*Usagi goes back to the Shrine and sees some girls are picking on Rei. The feels T_T
*Usagi saves the day because she's awesome like that.
*Luna tries to catch up with Sailor V but she doesn't do so well with the jumping thing. You're supposed to double tap X twice, Luna!
*Luna wonders if Sailor V is the Moon Princess because of the moon crescent on her forehead. I'd ask the same question.
*Usagi and Ami disguise themselves as priestesses to investigate the missing girls. I think it's great that Usagi isn't the only one that gets to wear disguises.
*They run into Rei and follow her to a priestess on the ground. They think she's the youma and it looks like Rei is going to attack them but instead she's attacking the youma behind them! Oh, classic.
*Oh no! Usagi and Rei got pulled into the portal to another realm.
*Sailor Moon time!
*Rei transform into Sailor Mars omg!
*They lead the girls back through the portal and Sailor Moon is on her way of following Mars out but gets pulled away from the portal. The portal is closing will she make it?
*
this looks like a job for the Tuxedo Bandit!
*Tuxedo Bandit manages to get Sailor Moon through the portal before it closes. Yay!
*Everything seems to be A okay in Senshi world except Rei: I'm not your companion. Oh noes, Rei isn't being a team player. NUUUUU! T_T
And that's the first three acts. If I glossed over anything it's because I'm remembering this from recent memory since I watched Act 1 last night and Acts 2 - 3 a couple of hours ago.
Oh, hi, Mako. What's up?
No, Mako, this is my hat. My hat.
Mako! Mako... Let's talk about this-- AHHHHH!
