dansdansdansI've loved Sailor Moon ever since I was a kid. And a friend of mine had (almost) all episodes that have been showed on Swedish TV (2 seasons I think) and then we started downloading the last three seasons. And we have also watched the Live Action series, which is fabulously bad, the youmas might the the funniest things ever. But Mamoru is hot like hell!
Sailor Moon Musicals were played every year from 93-05. And I've known that. I just never gotten down to finding them. Until I was dl the anime to watch with a friend and found that all of the musicals, except one I think, have been subbed and uploaded at the fabulous sailormoonsfansubs site. Yesterday I watched the first musical, and parts of the 2nd before I fell asleep. Oh god. '93!! XDDD
I couldn't help myself but to cap some things because yeah, funny. XD
First of all Naoko Takeuchi, the author. Look at her! She seemed so adorable! ♥
Endymion and Serenity aka Mamoru and Usagi. Now.. Mamoru seems younger than Usagi.. Something is not right here!! And of the costumes. I shall never complain about Johnny's costumes again!
heeh. Somewhat cold kiss. XD
Seriously. Mamoru!! Why? That is not a Mamoru!!
But they were cute together tho. XD
Makoto, Minako, Usagi, Rei and Ami. And random, in the Swedish version Usagi's name was Annie, and Ami was Ami. Strange. But still, better than Bunnie. XD
Artemis and Luna!
Queen Beryl! LOOK AT THE CHRISTMAS GLITTER IN HER COSTUME! XD
They crucified Mamoru! OH NO! XD
But YEY! Sparkly sailor senshi comes to the rescue!
And then they fought/danced. XD
And then there was angst!
Luna's rings on her breasts puzzles me.
Sailor Moon made this face a lot when she was angsting:
The Heart Rod sure is huge!
And then I cried too much to cap anymore. Because yeah, I can see that it was very B, and that the acting was very much over the top, but it's still Sailor Moon and I love it too much to be really critical.
Except for the choices of Mamoru.
The 2nd musical they've changed from small boy to too old man:
WTH?!!!! So NOT Mamoru!
THIS is how a real life Mamoru should look:
Had enough of my Sailor Moon talk now? ^^;;;
*jumps of to watch next SeraMyu!* ♥
Oh, before that, my 47 pamphlet is falling apart, and as much as it hurts, I could pick it apart and scan it, since I'll have to buy a new one anyway. Question is, is it needed? I suppose there's already full scans of it out there somewhere? Advice? ^^;;
//Sorry for huge pictures gals! XD

Date: 2009-04-18 12:23 am (UTC)Sailor Moon is probably my favorite shoujo ever ^^. Not the best story, nor the best drawing, but it's a very important series to me. I like it since 1997, which is like 12 years ago. Time surely pass by.
AAW!! I LIKED THE LIVEACTION!! @___@ I mean, the youma are strange, all that cardboard and stuff, and the transformations and attacks are kinda bizarre, but the version of the story and everything else (ex.: the background story for the inner senshi, MAMORU, the four generals etc.) make up for it. It's my favorite version, actually. I didn't like the manga that much.
PLUS. The musicals are EVEN MORE BIZARRE than the liveaction. I never watched them because all the pics I saw were SO STRANGE (Usagi's hair was so YELLOW and some of the actresses were actually FRIGHTENING me) that I couldn't even start searching for it. But I will probably start downloading now since you gave me a nice link *-*. COME ON, what the hell were those people dressed up as CATS? I've got to see that with my own eyes.
(I like the musicals soundtracks, actually. Sailor Wars is one of my favorite songs.)
Aaaaw I miss Sailor Moon so much ;__;. You said Usagi was named "Annie" in Sweden? How strange. Here (and in all Latin America, if I'm not mistaken) she was called Serena. Makoto was Lita, Minako was Mina, Mamoru was Darien. All the rest were the same - because YES, we had ALL SERIES dubbed to Portuguese, thank goodness because I didn't have a good internet connection to dl it.
I was a happy child, I still remember the day they FINALLY showed episode 200, I cried like hell D:.
Sorry, I got carried away. When posts like this come out from nowhere, my otaku side comes out to play <3.
Aaaw and I don't have the 47 pamphlet scans ¬¬. I'm sure they're out there somewhere, but I've never seen them around (not that I've carefully looked for it). If you want to scan yours, I'll download it!! ^__^

Date: 2009-04-18 05:59 pm (UTC)I also liked the liveaction! Sure, the production is far from great, they would've needed so much more money to make it great, but as you said, the story is LOVE!! The only thing I'm not quite pleased with is the end.. Because, in my opinion, Sailor Moon would not act that way. But it's just a question of looking at it as a separate story, not the same as the anime.
I have only read a few chapters here and there of the manga actually.. Need to read it one day!
I've watched the first four musicals now. Music is AWESOME! And I really like the one playing Usagi. She really feels like Usagi
even if she's overacting a lot, but so does all of them. But.. I don't know if I should tell you, if you're going to watch it and don't want to be spoiled, so don't read the overlined part if you don't want spoilers! XDMamoru dies in the third musical!! And he doesn't live up again. He dies and stays dead. There is no excuse! You just CAN'T kill Mamoru!!The cats are only in the first musical, which I find kind of sad, because Luna and Artemis are a big part of Sailor Moon. But oh well.
Sailor Wars are a great song!! And La Soldier!! *___*
Yeah, it's strange that they choose Annie of all names, and all the other characters have kept their japanese names in the swedish dub, so I don't understand why they changed hers! When it comes to Mamoru, I get really upset about his namechange in other versions.. I don't know why, it just feels wrong. XD
All of the episodes wasn't shown here, just the two or three first seasons. I think they choose not to air all of them because of all the gender-things and gays and stuff. Makes me so upset! Like Zoizite, who they made into a woman in the swedish version, and they claim that they couldn't hear from the japanese version if it was a girl or a boy, but the only thing that sounds like a girl is his laughter. >__< Stupid.
No worries!! I love when I find new SM fans! *_____*
Yeah.. I'll probably scan it. Soon. XD

Date: 2009-04-18 06:43 pm (UTC)Aaaaawn here everything was kept from S season on. I mean, Haruka and Michiru were lesbians, Usagi was shown naked in the last episode... but it was shown only via Cartoon Network (cable TV), so it didn't have a great repercussion.
Aaaah I read the spoiler. THEY KILLED MAMORU, OMG!! >_<
Haven't started downloading the musicals yet... can't download torrent and I don't have a MU premium account, so it'll be kinda difficult, but I'll manage it one day :D

You don't have MU premium? How do you survive?! I didn't have it for like 4 days and went nuts! XD

Date: 2009-04-18 10:28 pm (UTC)But now MU is MUCH LESS bitchy then it used to be. The only problem is that I can only download file by file and that if the file have more than 300MB there's always an error before I finish downloading.
And I have richer friends who have MU Premium and download stuff to me. ^^

Date: 2009-04-18 11:34 pm (UTC)heeh. I'm actually sharing my MU account with a friend, so we pay half each. And now I need to ul stuff that people would dl because you get a point everytime someone dls and then when you got a certain amount of points, you'll get a month (or more, depends on how many points) for free. *___* Give me! XD
