I kind of jumped into the threads before introducing my self but I'll give it a go now! ^_^ My name is Rachel and I'm 24 years old.
I started watching sailor moon when I was some where between 10 and 14. I'm in the United states and it didn't air in the U.S. until 1997, I believe, so it had to be some where around there. I didn't have a computer back then and I kind of just ran across it one day watching TV and I absolutely fell in love with it. I found it in the summer and when I went back to school I use to have my mom record it on to vhs so I wouldn't miss a thing haha.
I actually had no idea that there were more episodes past 82 although I recall sailor moon in her eternal form in the Spanish dubs but I didn't understand Spanish at the time so I didn't even try. I also had no idea it was a manga, and lately I've been actually buying the original manga one by one. Although I've read them online... there's just something better about having them in your hand. Every so often I also start watching the subs all over again. They're so much more beautiful in Japanese than English. I definitely use to get picked on for watching it by my brothers and even now some of my friends picking on me for loving it so much. But I fell like if any one gave it a chance and saw how caring the characters are or how beautiful the art work is... any one would love it.
My favorites have to be Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Pluto. A lot of people say they don't like Makoto because she's always thinking about he ex boyfriend(s) but I feel like I am the exact same way. I like that she's tough but still very girly. I also like the thought of how Sailor Pluto was a "Lone Guardian" an "Unknown" and although the job was lonely she did what she had to for so long. On a side note... chibi chibi is just adorable so she's up on my list too!
I love that a lot of the topics that have been posted are many things that have gone through my mind before and I love seeings every ones opinions on them! so now I'll go off and spend the rest of my day reading them!

Hello! Welcome! I hope you really like it here. I'm sorry about your brothers and friends, that isn't very nice of them, and I hope they will learn to either accept that as part of who you are, or they will learn the wonders of Sailor Moon.
But! You are amongst friends! I don't know if I've met a bunch of nicer people.

Thank you! I absolutely LOVE Pluto's dead scream. Everything about it is so beautiful. Also Uranus "world shaking" with that loud "pow" sound in the beginning. I'm sure that was a horrible description of it but I couldn't think of any other way haha.
I actually just watched those last month! I had never heard of it before, and I was hesitant to watch it because I thought it would ruin my love for sailor moon but it just made me like it more because I loved their music. My favorite was Sailor Venus's transforming music. It totally had me crying in parts to! I haven't seen the musicals though! Are those good?

I have watched one of the musicals, but it was on my Ipod while laying in my bed, so the image wasn;t really good so i can't tell you if it is good or not.
Did you watch the special one hour act that comes after the final act of the live action? You should if you haven't.

Thanks for telling me! I just watched them today. That tuxedo mask one was kind of weird! Side note: I think stuffed animal Luna in PGSM is absolutely adorable.
Happy birthday Brit-Chan! Hope it was a good one. I only turned 24 last month too!
I just love a lot of the noises in the Sailor's attacks. Another one is the sound that comes out when sailor mars does Burning mandala right when she puts her wrists together:
