"YOU SHOULD BE!" Say what you will about the DiC dub, but I love those two lines, Usagi/Serena ready to face Beryl one last time and Beryl having lost everything and wanting her DEAD.
Damn straight. I do feel Sailor Moon was basically mutilated during its English language adaptation (like pretty much all TV anime shown in North America from the 60's to the 90's). But I'll admit there were some very positive things about the English language adaptation of Sailor Moon. I absolutely loved the voice acting (particularly Terri Hawkes as Sailor Moon). AND I absolutely loved the original English songs created for this show. "Carry On" is fantastic. Just be loving that guitar riff!
right? outside of disney it was pretty damn rare to get tv animation with any kind of feeling to it (and y'know, babes), and we _definitely_ didn't get any continuous stories, let alone culminating in a final confrontation like that.
I was bullied a lot in school and felt it in my heart with this song, it gave me the courage to face my bullies and never gave up on myself. This song changed my 5 year old life.
I would have to agree with you, Because I remember seeing that Scene, and It was AWESOME, She Just Kicked Baryl's A**, Just opened a can of Whoop A*** on that "Beep". I also remember Seeing Serena and Rini Kicked the Doom Phantom's Butt too, they just opened a can of whoop Butt on that son of a "Beep". Oh Yeah, I forgot to Mention Those two are on my Top Ten Anime Villain Defeats in Anime Shows.
1:10 I remember as a kid when the scene moved to show Princess Serenity surrounded by the other Sailor Scouts holding the wand with her I got MAJOR goosebumps! I was so hyped up watching it in the living room I started jumping up and down on the sofa and got told to calm down by my mum! 🤣
Ironically enough, the final episode of the first season was the VERY FIRST episode of Sailor Moon I ever saw. I was raised extremely sheltered Pentecostal, in rural Mississippi. I knew nothing of the outside world. But one summer, when I was just a little kid, (way back in the early '90s,) I went to visit family in Gary, Indiana. And I stayed with my cousins for a few days, (who were about my age and NOT at all a part of the church my mother raised me in.) We weren't even watching Sailor Moon in an active sense. It just HAPPENED to be on the TV while my cousins and I were playing. And THIS episode, the season finale of the Dark Kingdom Arc, just so happened to be my very first introduction to what Sailor Moon was. And I, as little 7/8 year old boy who later in life realized I was Gay, INSTANTLY fell in LOVE with this show. And then I discovered Toonami, years later, and got to watch the whole series (granted, in it's heavily censored DiC years.) And now, at 35, seeing the new BRILLIANTLY re-dubbed '90s anime, as well as the reboot that is closer to the manga, we've now come full circle. I WISH I could go back in time and comfort my repressed childhood self and tell him it's totally ok that he likes Sailor Moon, and that she's a great role model.
When the music break happens, and all the dead scouts' spirits put their hands on Serena's and encourage her with their FRIENDSHIP! BABY ME WAS SHOOKETH! SHE WAS EMPOWERED! SHE COULD DO ANYTHING!
@@thecardboardboxl3922 They're not on itunes, nobody has the rights to distribute these. It's part of the reason why the old dic dub isn't available commercially anymore.
00:00:33 Jeniffer Cihi captures all of Serena's sweetness and bravery in one song. 00:00:21 You can even hear some genuine concern, self-doubt and a hint of "scared crybaby" in that voice, which just further strengthens her motivation for continuing. Honestly, this is what makes Serena special. She IS a normal, scared, easily distracted teenage girl, but that doesn't stop her moral compass from pushing her into action when she needs to. She SEEMS like she needs to be nagged to do it, but when she spots danger herself, or when things get SERIOUSLY bad, she doesn't hesitate to step up. 00:01:53 OK, now this burst of emotion at the end is just adorable. I can totally picture Meatball Head singing this.
I remember a few decades back when the DiC dub was on TV and there were parents bitching about how Sailor Moon served as a poor role model for young girls because she was a whiner and a crybaby, etc. Thing is, the realism of the characters was what made them so GOOD. I also recall agreeing with one rebuttal that pointed out that Spider-Man is a beloved classic hero, and a large part of his schtick as a character is how much he just wants to live a normal life.
@@melichardcurlq6535 Agreed, although I still think they went way too far with Serena's childishness. She seems like a hybrid of Squidward and Spongebob, in that she gets constantly beaten around by the world despite not deserving too, and how childishly she reacts to everything. They should have dialed back her childishness and counterbalanced it with more mature moments. It would drive the point home that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, and that maturity is more than a superficial attitude.
As ridiculous as the dic dub was, this scene captures Serena's character growth perfectly. It would have been even more powerful if her friends really died like in the original version. "I sense my friends are near" would mean "they will be always be near me, even in death". This song fits in meaning even for the original version. How amazing is that?
Man this song brings back so many memories and I seriously doubt I was the only one rooting and cheering for Serena to beat Beryl once and for all after all that heartache🔥 Definitely a blood pumper, but still pretty bitter sweet sense with the start of the second season everyone is basically starting over from scratch and doesn’t remember each other.
Songs like this is what made the 90s sailor moon the best. Not only did you have a great regular soundtrack but THIS played while Sailor Moon was battling Beryl. It gave it heart, it made you hyped and nothing that they do now can touch it! DIC and this are what made Sailor moon so great.
All the haters that whine about what they think makes Viz Dub _Better_ so-called can eat a bag of rocks, and suffer the massive stomachache when the bowel movement comes. At least DiC had the decency to censor certain stuff that would otherwise be inappropriate for children in the 90s - Like me - to be exposed to.
@@Alysa-Aiday If Viz was so great, they wouldn't feel the need to bash DIC still and just enjoy their version. But here they are, complaining about DiC nearly 30 years later.
I feel this climax is the one place the DiC dub actually outdoes the original. All the senshi's messages of support to Sailor Moon are tied to their individual characters, instead of all of them saying "you have to win so we can date boys" (only Jupiter says that in the DiC dub, which is perfect). And this song is way more suited to the scene than just playing "Moonlight Densetsu". I love "Moonlight Densetsu", but the miracle romance has nothing to do with the showdown against Beryl/Metallia! "Carry On" is not only extremely specific about this scene, it also rips.
Nahhhh, gotta be Moonlight Densetsu. It began with that, it ends with that. And way more poignant knowing they're *dead* rather than uwu captured by the nega forces or whatever. This song just feels formulaic and phoned in. The lyrics are really uninspired.
yeah it's weird how overly romance-focused the original show is at times(the original theme song is about Serenity and Tuxedo Mask's romance which seems like an overly narrow focus considering there's other important stuff in the show).
@@horohorosrin it makes no sense and is very ill-fittng for the final battle, even the normally critical website Sailor Moon Uncensored admitted Carry On was a better song.
I loved this song, and the entire episode. Every final battle needs its own final boss theme. The original contained an extended version of the title theme, "Moonlight Densetsu."
Dying in Sailor Moon back then: We're gonna send you back to the Nega-verse. Dying in Dragon Ball Z back then: I'm gonna send you to the next dimension. Dying in Sailor Moon nowadays: Time to Die. Dying in Dragon Ball Z nowadays: Time to Die. Man things were more creative back then, censored yes but still creative.
Thing is the dub on HULU is the new VIZ dub you don't get any of the music, original voice actors.. its really not worth it to watch the new one lol. But the music is what made the 90s so great lol.
I sat on sharing this for a while. It hedges on TMI, but I feel compelled today to share this here. When I was growing up, I dealt with horrendous abuse from a sibling (physical, verbal and emotional.) I understand why it happened and all is forgiven now; however, far from forgotten. I discovered Sailor Moon when I was twelve and it was so unimaginably empowering to me. Here were normal girls who stood up against villains and opponents infinitely larger than them with courage and determination. They all inspired me to be strong and stand up for myself against a sibling who, in my mind, was larger than life and unstoppable. This song and scene in particular lit quite the fire inside me. Small steps at first, but over time, the abuse faded away and we even became close. I owe a LOT to this series, and anytime I feel powerless or hopeless, I listen to this and it still helps me keep on going. *end overshare*
People say DIC didn’t care but they clearly cared when it came to the music. Like they didn’t have to make this song and could have just used the main theme
Who even said that DIC didnt care???? Whoever said that is a damn liar because this has so much heart. IF anything has no heart or doesn't care is when they redubbed sailor moon that music is awful now. DIC forever :)
@@DarkMoonGeneral the people who say DIC didn’t care are the super purest who every time someone so much as brings up the DIC dub they go into this whole rant about censorship. Honestly it’s a dam shame because I love the dub and find it fascinating as kind of being a push for anime in America. Not to mention the entirely unique soundtrack and marketing. Yes the censorship is unfortunate but it was a different time so judging in based on how thing are now isn’t fair.
@@Carbabydoll I met several of the original voice actors at Fan Expo in Toronto, everyone was super nice. I've met Tracey Hoyt (Rini #1), Stephanie Morgenstern (Venus #1), Susan Roman (Jupiter), Roland Parliament (Melvin), Kirsten Bishop (Zoicite/Emerald), Toby Proctor (Tuxedo Mask #2), Rob Tinkler (Rubeus) and Loretta Jafelice (Diana in the Cloverway dub)
It's been 30+ years since I saw this episode. I never even particularly liked this show, but this song can still bring a tear to my eye. Now if I find one of the videos that includes the Scouts lending Serena their strength from beyond, there may or may not be some manly tears.
OH MY GOD I LIVED FOR THIS SONG. THIS MOMENT. I can't even explain the feelings I had when I was a kid and experienced this moment that changed my life ;-;
Hey the first time I heard this song, I was blown away. It's so good. I cannot get it out of my head. I love this song so much. But here's the thing that gets me, seeing the other Sailor Guardians standing alongside with sailor moon as ghosts (even though they get revived which is incredible) really hit me in the feels
Im a guy who watched original sailor moon 1990s version even I pulled for sailor moon vs queen beryl when heard this song. GO GET THAT WITCH SERENA!!!!!!
Say what you will about the old dub (we're all aware of its shortcomings). But no matter who you are, you gotta admit, this song was a MAJOR positive that came from the Dic dub.
Why do alot of these tracks have a MEGAMAN X sound to them??!!! If it wasnt for this barista at my local Starbucks that caught my attention and apparently is a sailor moon fan (car decal of serena and while checking her out, saw her phone in BACK pocket....sailor moon case!) I decided to check out the main theme song Guitar solo definitely reminds me of....... MEGAMAN X SNES: Opening/highway stage And MEGAMAN X4 on PS1: SKY LAGOON ZERO THEME (33 seconds into this track)
“May my strength be a shield for this world, and for all of humanity, I’m putting all our hope into this one attack.” “Don’t underestimate mortals, and especially not a Saiyan; TAKE THIS!!!” *”GALICK GUN!!!!”*
"BERYL IS GONE, BLASTED BACK TO THE NEGAVERSE. THE UNIVERSE IS SAFE AGAIN, THANKS TO YOU, MY FRIENDS. FINALLY, WE HAVE A CHANCE FOR PEACE. REAL PEACE." 🌃🌃🌃🌃
Purists rag on this episode for changing things but think about it if they didn't. Easy to say they ruined things in front of a computer monitor as an adult years after the fact. Good luck going to producers and tv executives in 1995 and selling them "Hey. You know this action comedy show starring cute girls? Yeah, they brutally die off at the end of the season because the writers were on crack. We should air it anyway because that would ruin the purity". You'd be laughed out of the studio. DIC was like "We're not touching this." And put the fire out before it started. And Sailor Moon became a hit.
Whaaaa? The fact that they die adds so much tension to the final battle, and they end up coming back after the fact thanks to Usagi's wish. I felt really strong emotions while watching the finale knowing that everything was riding on Usagi's success. In the short term it was probably necessary to change it for American audiences in the 90s, but long term I just think the finale's pacing suffers because it's jamming 45 minutes of material into 22. I do love this song though. Also, Sailor Moon was already a hit internationally before DiC ever acquired the rights. It was one of the first wave of anime to become really popular here in the States, and DiC does deserve some props for creating distinct memories for older fans with their music and amateur but charming cast. But I think it would've most likely resonated with people with or without the censorship because it's just a likable show.
@@Doomshroom8 to be fair daytime TV censors in the US are WAY stricter than those in Japan(Spider-Man wasn't even allowed to throw a frigging punch in the 90s animated series FFS)and there's no way in hell the FCC would've let the violence and sexuality in the original show slide.
@@jadedheartsz - And in actuality this dub was made in Canada for Canadian tv first which is way more stricter than the US especially back in the 90’s and 2000’s. Case in point look up the changes the first Cardcaptor Sakura dub got. They were forced by tv executives to start with episode seven and turn the show into a girl/boy duo team because they thought that boys won’t watch a show with a solo girl lead, completely ignoring the fact that CCS is a series aimed at girls. I’m surprised that Canada was able to get the first season of Precure on tv given how f-ing sexist tv executives there are.
I just saw that Barnes and Noble seeks the CD for $15.19 (strange price, I know). But the one review says it’s Japanese formatted media, whatever that means.
@@thuha8988 Exactly Barnes & Noble also sells DVD releases of Winx Club (FUNimation Productions) The only one I have is Vol. 2: The Power of Dragon Fire which I purchased from Amazon not too long ago
Exactly Stella (Winx Club) was more of a loud mouth in the episode “Junior League” Flora calls Stella “Little Miss Loud Mouth” which she accidentally bites Flora’s hand after keeping it shut (Cinelune uncut version only) Flora: [screaming in pain] OW! Stella! Don’t bite my hand so hard!
Play this with Twist Of Fate ruclips.net/video/l64EyXcxvmo/видео.html&ab_channel=OliviaNewton-John-Topic They both have similar aspects. Maybe it's the tempo and instruments used. Well, though, the early 90's was kind of still in 80's era for awhile iirc. I'm a Gen Z so I don't know.
Don't get me wrong .. there's so much wrong with this horribly dubbed 90's version of Sailor Moon. And after watching the series the way it always should have been. I totally feel cheated 🤣 The story the way its supposed to be told is a billion times better hands down. BUUT I do love some of these old songs from the horrificly dubbed 90's version. Like i thought the locket tune was pretty. This song is good. And my only love is good too.
I disagree, I'm rewatching the original dic dub that aired on cartoon network. And I love it, I had completely forgotten about this until I saw a sailor moon toy and then searched up the show, it isn't horrible whatsoever, I love it. The heroic undertones, the great dic background music...love it.
“ I Hear you Luna, I’m not afraid Anymore..” 😭🤩
"YOU SHOULD BE!" Say what you will about the DiC dub, but I love those two lines, Usagi/Serena ready to face Beryl one last time and Beryl having lost everything and wanting her DEAD.
Iconic. 25yrs later, still gives me chills
“ COSMIC MOON POWER ! FIGHT THIS EVIL ! “
Yesssss 😭😭😭
@@AshuraH "I hear you, Luna, I am not afraid anymore."

If there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that DiC gave us a great soundtrack
Sooo good

The guitar solo cured all my diseases…. 🤟🏽
Word! 🙌
Makes sense to me
Bless us all who visited this just to remember how rad Sailor Moon's soundtrack is.
Ironically enough, the final episode of the first season was the VERY FIRST episode of Sailor Moon I ever saw. I was raised extremely sheltered Pentecostal, in rural Mississippi. I knew nothing of the outside world. But one summer, when I was just a little kid, (way back in the early '90s,) I went to visit family in Gary, Indiana. And I stayed with my cousins for a few days, (who were about my age and NOT at all a part of the church my mother raised me in.)
We weren't even watching Sailor Moon in an active sense. It just HAPPENED to be on the TV while my cousins and I were playing. And THIS episode, the season finale of the Dark Kingdom Arc, just so happened to be my very first introduction to what Sailor Moon was.

ugh the nostalgia i'm getting rn from this song is crazyyyyyyy miss these times
That was one of the greatest moments in Saturday morning cartoon history. Anime and rock, together on North American TV.
My guilty pleasure anime of the late 90s!
I only just heard this song the other day and I’m obsessed.
🤘🏿😭 The Power of friendship is so strong 💪🏿 in this song 🎵😭🫱🏼🫲🏾😎 Thanks 🙏🏿 you, Naoko Takeuchi 🫡
Say what you will about the old dub (we're all aware of its shortcomings). But no matter who you are, you gotta admit, this song was a MAJOR positive that came from the Dic dub.
This is still on my playlist…
Man, I want to make a cover on this!
Let us know when you do!
You should…. The solo is awesome on this
Do it we are waiting!
Go ahead. I'm sure it will generate some interest, even in those who aren't fans of the show.
I already made it guys lol ruclips.net/video/JDUBDSwunBg/видео.html
That was an epic ending episode of season one.
Man they went HAMMER on that Guitar!!!!
Amo esta canción. Imagínense volver a los '90, comer cereal y ver Sailor Moon. PERFECTO!!! 😁
Fight This Evil........🌙🎵🎶
I love this so much
I still have the cassette tape with the huge lyric book that came with it.
Legit banger of a theme!
Was this the song that was played when she defeated Queen Beryl?
Yes it was. Made the fight totally epic
And if I remember right it was sung by Sailor Moons voice actress.
@@DarkMoonGeneral No it wasn't. They brought in another singer who had no idea about the show or the fandom until the mid-2000s.
Well if you didn't realize how good things were back then, this song will do it for you
Did they bring in Eddie Van Halen for this?
This was my fave sing way back in the day
20/12/2023 😊can’t wait for this movie
Banger track.
pissed this isnt on spotify
It’s there now
@@thephantommaskgirl2209
Along with the original Winx Club theme song
@@CartoonPhreak ooh yessss I was waiting for that!!
@@thephantommaskgirl2209
Waiting for what?
Why do alot of these tracks have a
MEGAMAN X sound to them??!!!
If it wasnt for this barista at my local Starbucks that caught my attention and apparently is a sailor moon fan (car decal of serena and while checking her out, saw her phone in BACK pocket....sailor moon case!)
I decided to check out the main theme song
Guitar solo definitely reminds me of.......
MEGAMAN X SNES:
Opening/highway stage
And MEGAMAN X4 on PS1:
SKY LAGOON ZERO THEME
(33 seconds into this track)
Yeah, I've definitely draw parallels between the DIC Sailor Moon songs and MMX songs
I never watched the dub but this song is great
if you watch the dub ever do the og DIC dub not the new viz.
I am not sure if I should buy this cd only 2 songs I love. No.7 😂💓
Wooooooooooo
“May my strength be a shield for this world, and for all of humanity, I’m putting all our hope into this one attack.”
“Don’t underestimate mortals, and especially not a Saiyan; TAKE THIS!!!”
*”GALICK GUN!!!!”*
This song deserves to go as hard as it did.
"BERYL IS GONE, BLASTED BACK TO THE NEGAVERSE. THE UNIVERSE IS SAFE AGAIN, THANKS TO YOU, MY FRIENDS. FINALLY, WE HAVE A CHANCE FOR PEACE. REAL PEACE." 🌃🌃🌃🌃
Purists rag on this episode for changing things but think about it if they didn't. Easy to say they ruined things in front of a computer monitor as an adult years after the fact.
Good luck going to producers and tv executives in 1995 and selling them "Hey. You know this action comedy show starring cute girls? Yeah, they brutally die off at the end of the season because the writers were on crack. We should air it anyway because that would ruin the purity".
You'd be laughed out of the studio.
DIC was like "We're not touching this." And put the fire out before it started. And Sailor Moon became a hit.
Whaaaa? The fact that they die adds so much tension to the final battle, and they end up coming back after the fact thanks to Usagi's wish. I felt really strong emotions while watching the finale knowing that everything was riding on Usagi's success. In the short term it was probably necessary to change it for American audiences in the 90s, but long term I just think the finale's pacing suffers because it's jamming 45 minutes of material into 22. I do love this song though.
Also, Sailor Moon was already a hit internationally before DiC ever acquired the rights. It was one of the first wave of anime to become really popular here in the States, and DiC does deserve some props for creating distinct memories for older fans with their music and amateur but charming cast. But I think it would've most likely resonated with people with or without the censorship because it's just a likable show.
@@Doomshroom8 to be fair daytime TV censors in the US are WAY stricter than those in Japan(Spider-Man wasn't even allowed to throw a frigging punch in the 90s animated series FFS)and there's no way in hell the FCC would've let the violence and sexuality in the original show slide.
@@jadedheartsz - And in actuality this dub was made in Canada for Canadian tv first which is way more stricter than the US especially back in the 90’s and 2000’s. Case in point look up the changes the first Cardcaptor Sakura dub got. They were forced by tv executives to start with episode seven and turn the show into a girl/boy duo team because they thought that boys won’t watch a show with a solo girl lead, completely ignoring the fact that CCS is a series aimed at girls. I’m surprised that Canada was able to get the first season of Precure on tv given how f-ing sexist tv executives there are.
I want JoDi Benson and Howard Ashman to do a cover of this song
COSMIC MOON POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That guitar almost went too hard 😮💨
No such thing, pal.
Final battle! FIGHT!
This song is still dope even though it can be cheesy
my future is waiting for me and destiny legacy all stars party group
I will not let you win you witch my friends are counting on me
Can someone please put this show on RUclips, talking about the 90’s dub not that other one please I miss this show
I have this CD somewhere...
1:10 to 1:23 F*CKING epic!!!!!
MERCURY POWER...
MARS POWER...
JUPITER POWER...
VENUS POWER...!!!
@@Bestosterone 💜💙💚💛🧡❤
Serena: Cosmic Moon Power!
Goku (Kirby Morrow): Ka-Me-Ha-Me…
Serena: Fight this evil!
Goku (Kirby Morrow): HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where can I find the soundtrack at is it easy to download
I just saw that Barnes and Noble seeks the CD for $15.19 (strange price, I know). But the one review says it’s Japanese formatted media, whatever that means.
@@thuha8988
Exactly
Barnes & Noble also sells DVD releases of Winx Club (FUNimation Productions)
The only one I have is Vol. 2: The Power of Dragon Fire which I purchased from Amazon not too long ago
Who sings this song?
Jennifer Cihi
Serena was a crybaby too badass LOL
Exactly
Stella (Winx Club) was more of a loud mouth in the episode “Junior League”
Flora calls Stella “Little Miss Loud Mouth” which she accidentally bites Flora’s hand after keeping it shut (Cinelune uncut version only)
Flora: [screaming in pain] OW! Stella! Don’t bite my hand so hard!
Why does it remind me Kill"em All album?
This almost sounds like Sultan of Swing from Dire Straights
los que naciro el año dibujito señor moon atri gato y mas
Play this with Twist Of Fate ruclips.net/video/l64EyXcxvmo/видео.html&ab_channel=OliviaNewton-John-Topic
They both have similar aspects. Maybe it's the tempo and instruments used.
Well, though, the early 90's was kind of still in 80's era for awhile iirc. I'm a Gen Z so I don't know.
I don't like to under to the Yama of Beyong World !!
Don't get me wrong .. there's so much wrong with this horribly dubbed 90's version of Sailor Moon. And after watching the series the way it always should have been. I totally feel cheated 🤣 The story the way its supposed to be told is a billion times better hands down.
BUUT I do love some of these old songs from the horrificly dubbed 90's version. Like i thought the locket tune was pretty. This song is good. And my only love is good too.
It's not horribly done, it nailed exactly what it was going for. But I definitely don't think it serves as a replacement for the Japanese version
I disagree, I'm rewatching the original dic dub that aired on cartoon network. And I love it, I had completely forgotten about this until I saw a sailor moon toy and then searched up the show, it isn't horrible whatsoever, I love it. The heroic undertones, the great dic background music...love it.
Buddhist Goddess of Mercy of Central Asia that the Sarah moon of Japan be !!
