Sailor Moon Review

I don't have anymore creators to highlight but I wanted to finish with a big title so bring on Sailor Moon.

Anyone who cares about anime should know this series but for those who may have missed it. Sailor Moon is about a bunch of magical girls reincarnated from princesses of various ruined Kingdoms. With evil on the horizon, Luna the cat finds the reincarnated Sailor Moon and the Sailor Scouts to fight evil by moonlight sometimes aided by the mysterious Tuxedo Mask.
I don't need to tell anyone that this series put magical girl shows on the map and it's nostalgia value and appeal has transcended beyond 20 years. Although I've not seen the new dub of this series, I have fond memories of the first dub which is very hit and miss.
But it's not aged well. In fact everything that's followed Sailor Moon is better than Sailor Moon especially in characters.
Sailor Moon herself is infamously unlikable and she's the lead character making the supporting cast better in comparison.
The length of the series while okay for a monster of the week show can become exhausting after a while as key moments are dragged out worst than DBZ.
It's story can pull through during it's worst moments and crystal really tidies up the weaker aspects of the franchise, but overall if I watched it today, I wouldn't enjoy it.
Final Verdict: Nostalgia is the only reason to enjoy this series but that can only last so long as newer generations switch to newer shows with better written characters and it's fair to say that Precure has long since taken it's crown for best magical girl franchise.
