Rate this anime day 20: Sailor Moon

[Days of Future Piff]

Never sat down and really watched it, but I'll give Sailor Moon an 8 out of respect for what it did for the anime industry.
I wonder how many of the brehs here know that the creator of Sailor Moon married the dude who did Yu Yu Hakusho and Hunter x Hunter?

EDIT: Naoko Takeuchi and Yoshihiro Togashi.

Probably the #1 anime I'd watch with my daughter if I have kids someday. This was the first popular series to have an all female main cast with fashionable feminine designs and super powers. broke open the gates for young girls and women worldwide to embrace the medium and jumpstarted an entire genre that is still popular today.

In the same way that boys mimic'd Goku turning into a super saiyan in front of a mirror and pointed Kamehamehas to the sky, so did girls practicing the various sailor moon transformation sequences. It's really just as influential as Dragon Ball in the sense of empowering a specific demographic to be strong, I'd argue even more so when Sailor Moon is telling girls that they can be strong & feminine and makes a genuine effort to offer commentary on gender roles.

I appreciate SM's place in anime - literally not the same without it, and I found the first season to be strong. Haven't seen the others that people say are trash like Crystal that would probably hurt my impression of the series. And I also haven't read the manga to know whether or not the anime improves upon it. So I'm giving it a 9 based on that first season alone.

They shoulda left the lesbian stuff in there..............

This show suffered due to extreme amounts of editing and was nearly unwatchable due to being incoherent at best, and downright intellectually insulting at worst......



HOW THE FUKK NO ONE KNEW WHO TUXEDO MASK WAS??????!!!!!!

Lesbian stuff?

 

[HabitualChiller]

I'll give it an eight for being innovative and iconic.

8. Hella feminine, but held nikkas down during the early to mid 90s when it was hardly any Anime on TV

5/10 it's not made for me but opened a lot of doors for anime and manga

If I was judging solely off of enjoyment I'd get out of watching it then 3/10

Before people get on me this was requested by multiple people.

You still chose to make the thread

Stop acting like a thot and take responsibility

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

Lesbian stuff?

Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus weren't 'cousins', breh.

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

MAD gay/bi-/trans-shyt all throughout that show.​

 

[Take It In Blood]

Voted 10 off the strength of it holding me down during morning breakfast for all those years in the 90s

Watched sailor moon here and there but not nearly as much as I did the other toonami anime. I will always give SM props for what it did back in it’s time empowering women.

Only things I remember from that show was the terrible VA and how Tuxedo mask would come out the cut throw a rose and dip

 

[djthegreat88]

That sailor moon theme song still knocks

 

[dem bath salts]

Sailor Mars was bae and it held me down. I'm old so it dropped right before DBZ in the afternoon. 7 for the fact sailor is a female icon.
