A lot of people know about the Magical Girl genre becuz of Sailor Moon. But I grew up watching Pretty Cure, so I'm more familiar with it. I love both series.
@@Lucy-c82 Unfortunally, only a few seasons have been dubbed, 4, to be exact, Futari wa Precure, Yes 5, Smile!, And Doki Doki, you can find those last 2 on Netflix, under the name Glitter Force, and the first 2, their dubs have been forgotten, and are very rare to find, so you can find them subbed around the internet :3
Something interesting to note is the difference between the two series inspirations and how those played out overtime. Sailor Moon takes almost all of it's inspiration from the Super Sentai series, while taking little to nothing from the magical girl series that came before. Because of this approach, and the insane popularity of the series, the magical girl genre took almost a complete 180 in terms of tone and general setup. On the other hand, PreCure's main inspiration is just itself. Especially when you're talking about Heartcatch and on (Yes!5 and Fresh definitely stuck closer to their post-Sailor-Moon-magical-girl-genre roots), a lot of the motifs and themes and the general way the show is setup mirrors the original three Futari wa seasons. Compared to Sailor Moon, its influence is much more insular. Just something interesting to note. Great video again man!
Pretty sure the MotW formula that PreCure uses is close to its big brother franchise Kamen Rider. Even some of martial attacks they use are direct spoofs of that series. Example: The PreCure Kick used in Happiness Charge was a basically a magical girl Rider Kick that (Not being super flashy) can't beat an MotW. and Heart Catch had a whole slew of spoof attacks that were basically them just ragging on their big brother. I mean, even the Original Futari Wa was mainly inspired by the older versions of Kamen Rider. Max Heart kind of deviated from that, but you could still feel the Sakuga spilling out of the fight scenes. Now a days PreCure tends to have less Sakuga in it, but at its core it is still the little sister series to Kamen Rider (which actually did better in Revenue during Hugtto).
I've heard initially that Futari Precure was either inspired by, or had a lot of animators who worked on Dragon Ball, which is what led to the very physical fights. Is that true?
in my opinion, Sailor Moon brought light to magical girl genre to the west. it is still highly referenced in the cartoons for day. however precure is newer and have ever changing story similar to that of gundam. Power Rangers ongoing 1 few seasons were similar to Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon series is a legend. Precure is a well thought of series, and I see your point as it captures peoples hearts. So at present it is better. but making my vote void, I can't compare a series that ended years ago to series ongoing. what was relatable then to what's relatable now is kinda hard. we should just say love them both
I definitely prefer Pretty Cure, IMO it handles the female empowerment much better than Sailor Moon since most of the time the scouts always need outside interference while the Cures can get stuff done on their own
Sailor moon always Carrying the team I know she is the protagonist she is meant to be the strongest but they are making the other sailor scouts look weak all there attacks are weak and in precure they are all strong
I think both are strong, i Love both Precure and Sailor Moon, my favourite series of the precures are Yes! Precure 5 And Sailor Moon Because they have similar things, and by all i mean that both are strong and in sailor moon is more popular
Ok, I'm a little late, but whatever. First of all, yeah, usagi is SUPER annoying, but SHE HAS CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! she goes from being an annoying crybaby to being a strong, mature girl. She REALIZES she's being annoying and even GETS CALLED OUT ABOUT IT BY THE OTHER SENSHI! she gets bitch-slapped more than once. You haven't watched all the anime or read the manga and it really shows...
The reason i prefer Precure more than Sailor Moon: theyre the kind of girls whose solution of defeating motw is punching people in the face...well...almost all of them =w= Oh please...the long speech of not giving up bit? Yeah. MTP made that trope look bad...then Kirakira made it even worse, as this is their only way of fighting since theyre the only team as of now who dont fight physically. =3=
@@silhouette3865 And what even worse is that on their last episode where they supposed to beat the boss, they ended up getting beat like a rag. They needed someone with combat skills to help them-_-
But on the 2nd to the last EP of Kirakira A La Mode, they wre battling the final boss physically, well only Gelato punching, Macaron kicking, and Chocolat sword fighting, while Whip, Custard, Parfait, and Pekorin keep on using magic and thats all
@@thatshitiswhack8123 Yes that's because it's made for older audiences. Pretty Cure is made for young children. But even though it's made for kids, it Do Has A Lot Of Dark And Emotional Scene's in it! So it's really cool that Precure doesn't scare away to be a bit 'brutal' even to the younger audiences!
As a fan of both, I appreciate that this analysis video was mainly focused on comparing the two magical girl series rather than arguing which one is better than the other. For me, I prefer Pretty Cure over Sailor Moon but I acknowledge the latter's impact on the magical girl series as a whole. P.S. When you got to the part with the new characters overshadowing the original members for Pretty Cure, I was waiting for Cure Ace's name to be mentioned but that's just me.
Glad you liked the analysis! also I did complete Dokidoki, but I personally don't think Ace took away too much time from the other girls as much as Parfait or Milky Rose despite her being super strong.
I think the problem with sailor moon crystal is that they wanted to attract the adult audience rather than the kids lol Because what supports the precure nowdays are the toys ... the children's audience ... ie the kid's appeal on precure.... But with sailor moon got into a super dramatic story with a weird anime trait that wasn't appealing for nobody, not even the adults to begin with... so sailor moon got forgetable except for longing fans who still likes the manga and the original anime.
BiPinkBunny Chan That’s not the problem with sailor moon crystal. Now I’m not saying it doesn’t have problems cause boy does it. Honestly it was a huge disappointment. I’ll never understand how sailor moon fans actually think it’s “better” than the original. But everything your saying here makes no sense. Sailor moon is not forgettable it’s a huge part of anime history. I’m not even sure how you can even come to that conclusion.
They admitted in interviews thay they tried making Sailor Moon a josei anime but it just fails because they didn’t seem to really understand what women want past romance scenes.
@Shaman Xeed that's because Sailor Moon Crystal follows the manga and originally Sailor Moon WASN'T a story for kids. Thats why Crystal seems way more dark and serious than the 90's.
Also I liked the third season of sailor moon Crystal,I didn’t like the second or first season,Probably because of the animation style,It look bad in my opinion,The animation in sailor moon crystal season three was amazing! The way that they did it was great!
@@StarDreamsStudios yeah, I feel like the animation doesn't do the manga story I loved justice. I don't particularly enjoy Crystal as an anime, but I LOVE the manga. The manga had so much more pain and powerful messages and other stuff like what they had in the 90s anime.
I haven't watched a lot of Sailor Moon, and I've only watched a few seasons of Precure, though I'd say I like Precure more. I enjoy the action and a lot of the characters have really cool designs. I still like Sailor Moon, I'm just not a die hard fan. Overall, this was a pretty good video. One suggestion I could make for a video is things you'd like to see in future Precure seasons. Like any theme ideas? Something they could try differently with the formulas commonly used? I got a few ideas, tho I'd like to know what your ideas are if you have any.
I call myself a magical girl fan but my great secret shame is that I could never get into Sailor Moon. Precure holds that place for me instead. I love the action but also am generally more won over by the focus on friendship over romance. Being able to pick and choose the series also helps, instead of having to watch every single one.
You and me both girl! Ok I like sailor moon but not as much as precure bc they are more focused on the fights and the friend supporting, and also sailor moon is not even romance bro... I despise SOOO much tuxedo mask/mamoru... He is such a basico and nothing really special about him like... No personality at all, and usagi's also very annoying, SORRY but I had to say it... She treats poor Chibiusa very unfair, but she is my favorite alongside sailor venus. ANYWAYS PRECURE FOREVER and my fav probably is cure dream
Ok, Sailor Moon was one of the first anime I got into that includes the manga as well it being my first, but i have to hand it to Pretty Cure since they do something new every year and bring in a new cast of characters, i still love sailor moon but i have to lean over to Pretty Cure
That’s a nice comparison. It’s tougher for me to analyze which one is better. The closest one I could think is Sailor moon because they have more physical and dark scene (which that goes in the 90s anime). Also, they have characters development (I’m talking about 5 mains one) The one you said “The monster of the week” is more creative better then Precures’ monsters. I think their monsters is just plain lazy where you get the same designs but in different styles. For precure, I like the original starting with a tomboy and a girly girl which I like the idea along with Splash star. But when they move on, they try to make it more colorful and attract the kids’ audiences rather then go something dark (I can’t really describe it.) Every seasons when they transformed, they always have to say their intro and who they are. I think its just repetitive because we already knows who they are and what is their job is. Plus, the villains already knows their identity so, why bother to repeat every single episodes. I hope you understand my point of view and hope the next video will be the prediction of the next precure theme.
Glad you enjoyed the video. But Precure fights are definitely is way more physical than Sailor Moon. And yes the Precure transformations can be too long sometimes. They should shorten them
@Glitter Force and Precure then you can't really go around saying what's better, I think that's kinda rude even if it is your opinion. You should just say you don't know much about sailor moon but you enjoyed precure because that was your first magical girl anime cause that's great if it was! we're all anime fans either way ^^
@Glitter Force and Precure Really, because you seem to care a lot about telling everyone precure is better because you don't agree with people who like sailor moon more which is something YOU don't have control over. anyway not here to argue, just wanted to say you're just everywhere in this comment section lol
Something I have always loved about Sailor Moon is that you follow the same girls throw all seasons while watching them grow stronger together while you learn about their past and future
@Pretty Cure Forever after saeson one of sailor moon chibi moon and pluto appear soon and in season 3 uranes and neptune and season 4 nothing and season 5 the sailor starlights and chibi chibi and sailor galaxia
@@laMaricelamtz pls omg, honestly don’t waste ur time trying to argue with this girl, istg she’s so annoying, like idc if ppl like precure better than sailor moon (I’m a sailor moon fan) but can she stop commenting on every comment about sailor moon, like we get it
Well if you're wanting suggestions, perhaps a video summarising all the Precure series if someone new wants to get into them but doesn't know where to start or which one they might have the best chance of liking.
One thing that I love about Precure is how there are different girls every year and you watch them through the seasons grow stronger together while you learn about their past and futures
One thing I think Sailor Moon prevails in is aesthetics. The art is just so good to look at, especially the backgrounds. It's just more pleasing to the eye compared with the blindingly bright colors in Pretty Cure, which feels cheap sometimes
As a precure fan, I actually agree with this. The older precures (precures that came out before suite) had a bit of a softer color palette and had a nicer aesthetic which was really pleasing to the eyes. For the newer precures, I dont mind the bright colors, however the brightness can definitely get out of hand sometimes which made me have a epileptic seizure few times before. I really love precure, but i think they need to go with more softer aesthetics tbh.
I choose sailor moon because that was my first anime, Because I love space And because I really love Luna and Artemis (the cats) I love the Luna so much that i have Luna as my profile picture :3
Why does Toonami not show Pretty Cure hugtto? One I'm pretty sure Adult Swim just sees the series for kids. Disney XD is just about the only other anime channel I would settle for that if I had to i guess
interesting thought but Toonami is not the right channel for Precure LOL. Precure is definitely for kids, so my dream choice would be for it to be on Netflix or hulu but with it's original name instead of glitter force
Science Project 99 Funimation could have did Precure, but because of the #KickVic thing, I think Toei would have to give the license to Viz Media and they should dub the whole thing from the original to Healing Good Precure.
@Maddie Playz last time I checked Crunchyroll only has the original Pretty Cure. And Netflix is Glitter Force is not the same show. Differences aside they even just removed 5 episodes It's like a Power Ranger type deal they essentially just took a Japanese show that's already meant for kids and then turn it into their own thing. Basically 4Kids dub
I choose sailor moon, (it's my childhood and my life :D), but yes, I watched some precure seasons: for example: fresh, happinesscharge, and i'm going to watch soon the current-airing season star twinkle. well, about tuxedo mask, it does not always help sailor moon, many times she can wash herself, or she is the one who has to save him xD (for example in the first season he was brain-washed and she saved him with the silver crystal help), the reason why precure can hit more punches and kicks is why the cures can fly when the sailors senshis cannot, the reason why one of the comments below says that pretty cure has better fight scenes, is because SM is old and is made on paper, while PrC is made to computer and is more modern, that's why. oh. yes: i always used to like colorful things too, and PrC it is more colorful than sailor moon (and some other magical girls (maybe), but more colorful does not mean better or make it better than other maho shojos. When I was thinking to rank PrC above Sailor Moon it was like: Just, no. i like precure but, i found impossible to rank it above usagi. this is mine little review of your review :D
Interesting thoughts; but something being more colorful is definitely a reason for a person to prefer something over another thing especially if someone likes colorful things as their desired aesthetic. I mean, I still haven't seen the first few Precure seasons since they are not as colorful. And yes I know Sailor Moon saved herself many times, but it is low compared to the amounts where she needs to be saved; that is why I said "most of the time" she needs saving. As for SM being made on paper/hadrawn animation, I don't think that's a valid reason at all. The SM series has had impressive feats of animation with beautiful attacks and trasnformations, so I doubt animating a fight scene is any different. Besides, DBZ is an old show as well, but has countless physical fights.
@@ScienceProject99 sorry if I answer late, I wanted to do it before, but I did not have time Xd haha, I already know that people prefer something more colorful, and I have nothing against that. about how colorful are first seasons of precure, try with the first one (futari wa prc) is one of the most colorful also :D. I repeat it again but in more detail: it is true that sailor moon needs most of time tuxedo to save her, and sometimes she can get up by herself, or she is who have to save him. but just imagine: sailor moon could fly like a cure, I would not need tuxedo to grab her when she's falling down, and imagine the cures without being able to fly, probably toei would have added some male figure in some season (or maybe I'm wrong). oh, just as a reminder: remember, in the last season Mamoru (tuxedo mask's civilian name) went to U.S.A, so sailor moon could not count on his help during all the season, and get up by herself in most of episodes. well, about the animation on paper and the action: my first PrC season was smile, in just the first half of this season I understood the concept of the whole franchise: sound effects of the punches and kicks always very exaggerated xD, there is a lot of dust in them, for example, in the firsts episodes of smile, the villians only gave them a small blow or push, and as soon as they reach the ground, a building or some object, a cloud of dust were appearing; and in episode 23 they confronted the allies of the main villain, and evidently quite dust. In conclusion that for the next seasons that I was going to watch I already knew how the fight scenes would be: always with punches and kicks with exaggerated sound effects in every episode, and in the half of the season and in the end quite dust, punches and kicks: in conclusion, the prc battles were already predictable; while in Sailor Moon the fact that they used those scenes in certain moments/episodes/movies was a bit more entertaining and surprising to watch, because they made those scenes be more special than usual ones. oh, by the way, you forgot to analyze a topic (the OST): well, let me analyze it: i think both of them have a great soundtrack: with SM: its songs almost always sounded very jazz style and they're more "simple" (best example is transformations). with PrC: (not all the seasons, but in some of them): transformations and attacks sounded very orchestral (best examples: smile, doki doki, go princess, suite). In SM i metioned "simple", well now i can explain why: in these prc seasons they used more variety of musical instruments while in sailor moon they used less variety of them: this means: toei put more effort on PrC OSTs. synthetic transformations OSTs: heartcatch, 1st transformation theme for fresh season. comparing the OPs is a bit hard for me, but maybe: SM are older Jpop songs and maybe the are a bit more orchestral while PrC are modern Jpop songs and the sound a bit artificial (or maybe is the contrary, srry xd i said is a bit hard to compare them)... about endings songs: mmm... i think SM wins, bc its endings sound more melodic and harmonious, while most of PrC is more artificial (a good example is the comparision of SM ed 1 and doki doki prc ed 1 and ed 2. sorry if I have extended that much my text xd, I hope you have understood my review better this time :D
@prettycure forever i won't judge you, but keep on mind that not all seasons did that number of punches, i mean if you've seen star twinkle precure, the kicks and punches were really missing
@Glitter Force and Precure physical doesn't mean better though, saying precure is better because of the fights is a bit biased... Sailor Moon is more for teens and adults while precure is just a kids show to sell toys so of course the fight scenes are exaggerated to entertain little kids and sell the toys cause kids like fast and colourful shows lol
I'm obviously more of a Sailor Moon fan, but I love both. Nothing will ever beat Japanese Magical Girls. Sailor Moon is gorgeous in its bulbousness, warmth and nostalgia, and the melodies make you feel like you've heard this tune in a past life. Precure is great for its epic fights, wide universe and franchise. And in both franchises there is a deep meaning and philosophy. I truly love both of them.
Great job with the comparisons. Pretty spot on. I actually appreciate Sailor Moon and enjoyed the series (Still do) but ever since I discovered Pretty Cure, I preferred that franchise, hairs down. It’s not everyday you see young girls fighting DBZ/Power Rangers style. Sure, not all of them would have solid action (Kirakira comes to mind) but at least you can count on them to bring something different each year. My favorite season being Smile Precure. Personally, I say the Cures in that season use their elements better in comparison to Sailor Moon.
honestly I like Sailor Moon better, the ORIGINAL SAILOR MOON because its a lot more "dark" and its seems more mature , I also like the soundtrack its so beautiful
People who are unaware of other magical girl series however only know what sailor moon is: Precure is a copy of sailor moon!!! Precure fandom: *so you have chosen death?*
Literally the only reason I know about Sailor Moon is because a girl said it's name like 2 years ago. Up until that point, I had no idea what it was. Also, I watched Glitter force like 3 or 4 years ago (I didn't have high standards). So technically I knew about Pretty Cure before i knew about Sailor Moon. Personally, i like Pretty Cure much more. The outfits are always so nice and pleasing to the eye, I don't really like it when a magical girl group all have the same outfit with slight variations. That is the case with some seasons of Pretty Cure though, but not all. Also the fighting is always so badass and incredible to watch, especially in seasons like Hugtto. And even when they aren't throwing hands, the magical attacks are always so badass or beautiful. Like in Kira kira. There wasn't a lot of physical action, but the magical attacks were beautiful. But that's just my opinion. Like what you want, I don't really care. Just respect other people's opinions, be civil, have some morals, thank you.
PreCre(Pretty Cure) is not just a copy of Sailor Moon but an upgrade(昇華 Sublimation or 進化 Evolution) The successor of Sailor Moon Sailor Moon's anime staff are also very involved in the PreCure series Fresh PreCure character designer Hisashi Kagawa and HUGtto PreCure director Junichi Sato are anime staff at the time Voice actors include Kotono Mitsuishi (Sailor Moon) as Hummy in Sweet PreCure and Aya Hisakawa (Sailor Mercury) as Cure Moonlight in Heartcatch PreCure. If you say precure is a copy of Sailor Moon, there are basic materials even in the case of Sailor Moon (The Japanese folkloreTaketori Monogatari where the moon princess(Kaguya-hime) comes out en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tale_of_the_Bamboo_Cutter) (Saint Seiya and Super Sentai) Especially in the case of Super Sentai, Naoko Takeuchi said that he was affected in the interview Creation is made under the influence of someone. There is no completely original thing in this world In Japan, the Pretty Cure series already exceeds the total sales of Sailor Moon products so far(About $ 1 billion for Sailor Moon and about $ 1.3 billion for Precure series) ※The difference between the two works※ Sailor Moon is tremendously popular, but the manga is a completed work, so there is no continuity unless the author draws a new work or remakes it Precure's source is an anime created by Toei Animation, so it has continuity
@Glitter Force and Precure try watching all 5 season of sailor moon and the 3 movies and come back if you really still think only precure is better because they're both kinda in their own lane, precure is more for kids compared to sailor moon so that's probably why you like it more.
I hate when people say all magical girl shows rip off sailor moon like toy story was the first CGI movie that doesn't mean no one else can do it and they might got inspection from it
Most people say pretty cure cuz it's underrated but even so sailor Moon is my most favorite because I get much emotional and I laugh and learn lessons from the anime
Make no mistake, Pretty Cure was handled much better than Sailor Moon. And also, Pretty Cure looked cuter than Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon tried too hard to be a kids dub, and failed. Pretty Cure has better looking cute girls and was successful. Despite Pretty Cure aimed at kids, it did better than Sailor Moon.
@@maitrungnguyen234 Darn strait! Just because it a kids show doesn't mean it has to be kid-friendly and that's what made Sailor Moon a failure when it first hit American shores.
What I didn’t like in Sailor Moon was that Sailor Moon was MUCH more stonger than the sailor soldiers when their whole purpose was to protect her. What was the point of protecting her when she was strong enough to do it herself and she also had tuxedo mask who saved her more than the guardians(I think).
I am currently back in a Sailor Moon phase and rewatching the 90s anime and you commented at the perfect time. I AGREE SO MUCH. It bothers me so so much how useless the Inner Senshi are in the series in both the 90s and manga. If anything, like you said, they need HER protection. they were just knocked to the side and disrespected all the time. YES. exactly. Tuxedo Mask saves the Senshi more than they do him. Pluto and Saturn also were made to be so weak in the 90s anime. It will always bother me. Even in the Stars manga/Cosmos I will never like the plot of how the Inner and Outer Senshi die easily despite being in Eternal Form.. I love the series, but the power balancing is very very poor.
I lived in japan for a month and i cant even explain how much i saw pretty cure stuff. they had posters for the movies and ads on random streets and in the stores all the kid stuff was themed precure and i even left with a bunch of precure stamps. its way more relevant than sailor moon in japan in current time
Just imagine Sailor Moon compared to Pretty Cure is like compared Winx Club with Power Rangers/Super Sentai. Man, the comparison of the two magical girl shows are weird. For me, it's Pretty Cure because I was born to be a millennial.
I'ma be honest. Precure is the better franchise hands down. I know that from vids. The total number of episodes I've watched out of the 800+: 1. 1 is all I need.
Same, but I really only just started watching it. I was familiar to the dubs because I watched them when they came out, but I just started watching Max Heart.
Same. I downloaded Crunchyroll because I wanted to find more anime’s, then I found out Netflix has the audacity to change the Names, styles, and language and also had the audacity to make it a Netflix original
@@themoonrabbit971 Smile precure is NOT a copy of sailor moon. The two shows have a completely different storyline and characters. Plus if you think precure is childish, I dare you to watch hugtto and heartcatch
@@themoonrabbit971 smile precure is not a copy HOW COULD THAT BE POSSIBLE IF THEY WERE BOTH CREATED BY THE SAME COMPANY. Also it's cute and it's for kids that's why :/
the focus is different tho, precure really exist for children and to try to give them the values of friendship, to never give up, and most important, that people you may hate might actually not deserve that hate but are actually in deep need of a hand
I actually watched Pretty Cure first before I even new abpit Sailor Moon, but I think I still life Sailor Moon better because I think I life the characters and the story line a lot better, but that just my opinion
Honestly, I’m gonna have to pick Sailor Moon. The old version has a aesthetic style and such comedy that I like. I understand it very much and I think Sailor Cosmos is releasing in 2023. Sailor Moon anime is my favorite because I really love space. Pretty cure is good though, but I just prefer Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon, Mercury, and Venus are my favorite scout guardians of the inner system space. There’s much more sailor guardians, some evil, some dead, and some alive out there outer space.
Ok I love Sailor Moon’s art style and story; Precure’s daily story and physical strength. 90s’ SM is only good in 1 thing: most of the enemies were good and were purified.
I unfortunately watched Glitter Force and Glitter Force Doki Doki rather then the original versions, though I intend on watching the unamercanized versions of the other seasons.
My BF is more to waiting for "What kind of Precure in the upcoming year". and myself, 10 years older, tend to ignore it and enjoy Sailor Moon series (and still cursing how nerfed Saturn over time). These points in the precure are more of my nitpicking, tho': 1) As late, whoever leads the Precure Team tend to have more screeching/shrill voice. Maybe starting from the... especially HUG. Especially annoying in the ED singing. From that, it seems they pick the most screeching voice as the lead character. 2) I hate how Maho Girls screwed the all developments into one episode of "What if the magic is appreciated" which is closer to final and most of characters' memories are reset at point blank that they don't even have memories before that. And the big bad boss "Yami" actually wanted "YUMMY" things in the end of episode? It's better to be as OVA. 3) Singing "I LOVE RICE". You know who sings it. She seems a great senior, but singing "I love rice" all over to defeat enemies are... well, NARM, at most. And how they all go singing to defeat the big boss? Yyyyyyeah, no. -From the same series, all the variable costume transformations are just for show for 3d stock footage instead of actually useful in combat. 4) "All Stars" deteriorates as the Precure gets too many to feat, story-wise. You need one scene to unite them, and make a conflicts for old-gen, either get kidnapped or something, and the all action-show while not too shabby, but gives nothing but "oh your favorite precure is here for 5 seconds". 5) The "Maho musical" movie is actually a good beginning for musical feat. However, one budget is spent only in one musical scene and then the next scene, the musical is so limited without variations/camera angle and such.
i really really wanna find a good place to watch precure, but i really struggle with long series. i also haven't watched all of sailor moon for the same reason. however- i will watch any mars focused episodes cuz she is my wife and i love her
I would sound dumb judging books by their covers but... “C’mon, Toei! We get it. 2’s company, 5’s a team. But Precure isn’t Super Sentai, and Sailor Moon isn’t Kamen Rider.”
@@laMaricelamtz sailor moon isn't about bunnys sailor moon is about crybaby with an anoyng cat who follows them and they need to transform into the weakest and girliest magical girls of all time do you understand now?
Are you a troll? Because sailor moon is one of the most powerful magical girls of all time she gets character development and matures I can’t tell you haven’t read the manga
Ok I think you have to remember that the reason why people know Sailor Moon versus Pretty Cure it is BECAUSE of the fact that Sailor Moon was released in the US. The only seasons that have been released is the original, and the Netflix rips. Toei Animation is SO very much missing out by not giving a US release of this show because I would love to watch the other series and the original of the Netflix versions BUT I would have to search out all of them on sites that are not sites you should be using to watch Anime on. Also no Sailor Moon is still VERY popular and they did give time between the 3rd and 4ths seasons to really make it good as well as to give time for Viz Media to re-dub all of the seasons including the one season that NEVER got an English dub until 2019.
Man at that time I only knew Sailor Moon i didnt watch it yet until now but i grew up with other magical girl animes THAT LITERALLY NOBODY KNOWS UNTIL I INTRODUCE IT.
I personally think Sailor Moon is better because it is more mature and hits a wider audience than Precure does. I mean, people of any age can like what they like but you can tell Precure was generally made for younger kids and Sailor Moon was made for teen to adult. I do like Precure though, my favorite series is Go Princess Precure and on Tumblr, I try to do this annually thing called "Precuruary" in which every Feb I focus on blogging about Precure stuff, though, as of recent years I haven't sadly been in the mood for it. One thing I definitely do mention in my Precure related blogs is that in terms of catching what middle school/childhood is like, Precure does a better job. I always thought the Sailor Scouts were in high school given how they look and how they act. It took me by surprise when I found out they were middle school. The design of the characters and how they behave in Precure, makes them more believable as young girls in middle school. I also like that they aren't boy crazy in Precure! I can see girls being curious about love as I once was too a young girl, but I wasn't all like "Oh this guy is hot." at most guys considered hunks by typical preps or drooling over boy bands. Not all girls, especially middle school age dream of boys and Precure definitely got that right! Though, I do do shippings sometimes, if said couple is interesting enough to me.
I agree, Smile Precure was my first precure series i ever seen and i also known Sailor Moon, and then i saw Smile Precure, The characters looks the same, The ideas looks the same, Even the personality's looks the same. I think Smile Precure is the best series who looks like Sailor Moon
I really love both series! Sailor Moon was my first anime to watch when I was 12 and then I discovered Glitter Force about a year later, I know it’s not a great dub but I’ll always be grateful for it because watching both back to back got me into magical series’s and it helped be find the version of it before it was dubbed Smile Precure which got me watching pretty much every Pretty Cure series. So, at least Glitter Force got me interested in the original Pretty Cure.
I swear to God people these days are completely stupid, always complaining about digimon being a pokemon rip off and now they're calling precure a sailor moon rip off ? 😡😤😫
I actually love both but I'll still choose Sailor Moon over PreCure series (THAT IS IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT ME TO PICK ONE), probably because it's my childhood and it holds so much nostalgia. I have watched Pretty Cure from Futari wa Precure Season 1 up until Mahoutsukai PreCure. I've stopped watching PreCure since Kirakira Precure Ala Mode aired, I've watched a few episodes tho but I don't know why I've stopped watching it. Then Hugtto Precure came, I've watched few episodes then stopped halfway (¼ way actually), same with Star Twinkle PreCure. Now, the newly aired Healing Good PreCure, I have yet to watch it.
@Precure Forever Ngl as much as I love suite, I prefer sailor moon over it. I love it but there was definitely many problems with suite and it was a bit sticky at first (I recommend watching ruclips.net/video/4DMTA1eIq3Y/видео.html for more info on suite)
I love how in smile pretty cute they basically have the same personality's as the inner Senshi but boiled down to individual elements that just get turned up.
A lot of people know about the Magical Girl genre becuz of Sailor Moon. But I grew up watching Pretty Cure, so I'm more familiar with it. I love both series.

Unfortunally, only a few seasons have been dubbed, 4, to be exact, Futari wa Precure, Yes 5, Smile!, And Doki Doki, you can find those last 2 on Netflix, under the name Glitter Force, and the first 2, their dubs have been forgotten, and are very rare to find, so you can find them subbed around the internet :3
Is anybody gonna say that both Sailor Moon and Precure are products of Toei Animation?
Wat Diamond Yes Precure exists because Naoko Takeuchi didn’t want SM turned into Dragon Ball GT.
maybe toei made them so they could make drama
yes
Just like Dragon Ball & One Piece
Yes but Sailor Moons author is Naoko Tageuchi and Precures author ist Izumi Todo
Something interesting to note is the difference between the two series inspirations and how those played out overtime. Sailor Moon takes almost all of it's inspiration from the Super Sentai series, while taking little to nothing from the magical girl series that came before. Because of this approach, and the insane popularity of the series, the magical girl genre took almost a complete 180 in terms of tone and general setup. On the other hand, PreCure's main inspiration is just itself. Especially when you're talking about Heartcatch and on (Yes!5 and Fresh definitely stuck closer to their post-Sailor-Moon-magical-girl-genre roots), a lot of the motifs and themes and the general way the show is setup mirrors the original three Futari wa seasons. Compared to Sailor Moon, its influence is much more insular. Just something interesting to note. Great video again man!
Very interesting, and yeah precure does have it's own unique elements that future seasons base upon. Glad you liked the video
Pretty sure the MotW formula that PreCure uses is close to its big brother franchise Kamen Rider. Even some of martial attacks they use are direct spoofs of that series. Example: The PreCure Kick used in Happiness Charge was a basically a magical girl Rider Kick that (Not being super flashy) can't beat an MotW. and Heart Catch had a whole slew of spoof attacks that were basically them just ragging on their big brother. I mean, even the Original Futari Wa was mainly inspired by the older versions of Kamen Rider. Max Heart kind of deviated from that, but you could still feel the Sakuga spilling out of the fight scenes. Now a days PreCure tends to have less Sakuga in it, but at its core it is still the little sister series to Kamen Rider (which actually did better in Revenue during Hugtto).
I've heard initially that Futari Precure was either inspired by, or had a lot of animators who worked on Dragon Ball, which is what led to the very physical fights. Is that true?
@@gota7738 The director of Futari wa was the director of Dragon Ball Z. So yeah pretty much.
in my opinion, Sailor Moon brought light to magical girl genre to the west. it is still highly referenced in the cartoons for day. however precure is newer and have ever changing story similar to that of gundam. Power Rangers ongoing 1 few seasons were similar to Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon series is a legend. Precure is a well thought of series, and I see your point as it captures peoples hearts. So at present it is better. but making my vote void, I can't compare a series that ended years ago to series ongoing. what was relatable then to what's relatable now is kinda hard. we should just say love them both

its called adding drama and relationships

Sailor moon always Carrying the team I know she is the protagonist she is meant to be the strongest but they are making the other sailor scouts look weak all there attacks are weak and in precure they are all strong
@I ate your brain you should watch precure all stars DX3 where the precure teams are mixed up
They all seem a lot stronger in the manga. Especially Saturn; don’t know why they neglected her when it came to the anime.
@I ate your brain the title says it all. "Sailor Moon"
I think both are strong, i Love both Precure and Sailor Moon, my favourite series of the precures are Yes! Precure 5 And Sailor Moon Because they have similar things, and by all i mean that both are strong and in sailor moon is more popular
Ok, I'm a little late, but whatever. First of all, yeah, usagi is SUPER annoying, but SHE HAS CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! she goes from being an annoying crybaby to being a strong, mature girl. She REALIZES she's being annoying and even GETS CALLED OUT ABOUT IT BY THE OTHER SENSHI! she gets bitch-slapped more than once. You haven't watched all the anime or read the manga and it really shows...
The reason i prefer Precure more than Sailor Moon: theyre the kind of girls whose solution of defeating motw is punching people in the face...well...almost all of them =w=
Oh please...the long speech of not giving up bit? Yeah. MTP made that trope look bad...then Kirakira made it even worse, as this is their only way of fighting since theyre the only team as of now who dont fight physically. =3=
(well...almost all of them ) Kirakira creeps behind them runs and scream,.

@@silhouette3865 And what even worse is that on their last episode where they supposed to beat the boss, they ended up getting beat like a rag. They needed someone with combat skills to help them-_-
But on the 2nd to the last EP of Kirakira A La Mode, they wre battling the final boss physically, well only Gelato punching, Macaron kicking, and Chocolat sword fighting, while Whip, Custard, Parfait, and Pekorin keep on using magic and thats all
What I love about precure can sometimes be very dark and emotional.
@@thatshitiswhack8123 Yes that's because it's made for older audiences. Pretty Cure is made for young children. But even though it's made for kids, it Do Has A Lot Of Dark And Emotional Scene's in it! So it's really cool that Precure doesn't scare away to be a bit 'brutal' even to the younger audiences!
@Pretty Cure Forever sailor moon have scarier ones
@@laMaricelamtz Maybe it's because of the audience.
As a fan of both, I appreciate that this analysis video was mainly focused on comparing the two magical girl series rather than arguing which one is better than the other. For me, I prefer Pretty Cure over Sailor Moon but I acknowledge the latter's impact on the magical girl series as a whole.
P.S. When you got to the part with the new characters overshadowing the original members for Pretty Cure, I was waiting for Cure Ace's name to be mentioned but that's just me.
Glad you liked the analysis! also I did complete Dokidoki, but I personally don't think Ace took away too much time from the other girls as much as Parfait or Milky Rose despite her being super strong.
I think the problem with sailor moon crystal is that they wanted to attract the adult audience rather than the kids lol
Because what supports the precure nowdays are the toys ... the children's audience ...
ie the kid's appeal on precure....
But with sailor moon got into a super dramatic story with a weird anime trait that wasn't appealing for nobody, not even the adults to begin with...
so sailor moon got forgetable except for longing fans who still likes the manga and the original anime.
I am an adult and I really love Sailor Moon Crystal. I don't really enjoy the old SM more, because it is too "Monster of the week"ish
If sailor moon was forgettable why is it one of the most famous anime franchises lmao
BiPinkBunny Chan That’s not the problem with sailor moon crystal. Now I’m not saying it doesn’t have problems cause boy does it. Honestly it was a huge disappointment. I’ll never understand how sailor moon fans actually think it’s “better” than the original. But everything your saying here makes no sense. Sailor moon is not forgettable it’s a huge part of anime history. I’m not even sure how you can even come to that conclusion.
They admitted in interviews thay they tried making Sailor Moon a josei anime but it just fails because they didn’t seem to really understand what women want past romance scenes.
@Shaman Xeed that's because Sailor Moon Crystal follows the manga and originally Sailor Moon WASN'T a story for kids. Thats why Crystal seems way more dark and serious than the 90's.
Also I liked the third season of sailor moon Crystal,I didn’t like the second or first season,Probably because of the animation style,It look bad in my opinion,The animation in sailor moon crystal season three was amazing! The way that they did it was great!
My main problem were the characters. They had so much more life in original. Then I watch crystal and I’m just like....what happened??
@@StarDreamsStudios yeah, I feel like the animation doesn't do the manga story I loved justice. I don't particularly enjoy Crystal as an anime, but I LOVE the manga. The manga had so much more pain and powerful messages and other stuff like what they had in the 90s anime.
i also really enjoyed crystal especially because it wasn’t as repetitive as the original :) but i still love the original just as much
I agree with you I really wish the Sailor Moon girls through more hands
They're too elegant to do that
I wish that too
I remember seeing some physical fighting in PGSM. They used their hands in that version.
@@BronyBoy5463 You mean the Live Action? I'm sorry but that show is bad and weird I rather watch Sailor Moon in cartoons because Live Action sucks
Believe the best answer would be "Yes".
When pretty cute was created by Toei animation as well as sailor moon.
I haven't watched a lot of Sailor Moon, and I've only watched a few seasons of Precure, though I'd say I like Precure more. I enjoy the action and a lot of the characters have really cool designs. I still like Sailor Moon, I'm just not a die hard fan. Overall, this was a pretty good video.
One suggestion I could make for a video is things you'd like to see in future Precure seasons. Like any theme ideas? Something they could try differently with the formulas commonly used? I got a few ideas, tho I'd like to know what your ideas are if you have any.
glad you enjoyed it. And that sounds like an interesting idea!
Thanks for educating a noob like me
Your not a noob your a hero
I call myself a magical girl fan but my great secret shame is that I could never get into Sailor Moon. Precure holds that place for me instead. I love the action but also am generally more won over by the focus on friendship over romance.
Being able to pick and choose the series also helps, instead of having to watch every single one.
You and me both girl! Ok I like sailor moon but not as much as precure bc they are more focused on the fights and the friend supporting, and also sailor moon is not even romance bro... I despise SOOO much tuxedo mask/mamoru... He is such a basico and nothing really special about him like... No personality at all, and usagi's also very annoying, SORRY but I had to say it... She treats poor Chibiusa very unfair, but she is my favorite alongside sailor venus.
ANYWAYS PRECURE FOREVER and my fav probably is cure dream
My fav sailor is Haruka.She us so cool and cutie💗💗💗
And my fav cure is
Akira.And yes,her prototype is Haruka.
Ok, Sailor Moon was one of the first anime I got into that includes the manga as well it being my first, but i have to hand it to Pretty Cure since they do something new every year and bring in a new cast of characters, i still love sailor moon but i have to lean over to Pretty Cure
That’s a nice comparison. It’s tougher for me to analyze which one is better. The closest one I could think is Sailor moon because they have more physical and dark scene (which that goes in the 90s anime). Also, they have characters development (I’m talking about 5 mains one) The one you said “The monster of the week” is more creative better then Precures’ monsters. I think their monsters is just plain lazy where you get the same designs but in different styles.
For precure, I like the original starting with a tomboy and a girly girl which I like the idea along with Splash star. But when they move on, they try to make it more colorful and attract the kids’ audiences rather then go something dark (I can’t really describe it.) Every seasons when they transformed, they always have to say their intro and who they are. I think its just repetitive because we already knows who they are and what is their job is. Plus, the villains already knows their identity so, why bother to repeat every single episodes.
I hope you understand my point of view and hope the next video will be the prediction of the next precure theme.
Glad you enjoyed the video. But Precure fights are definitely is way more physical than Sailor Moon. And yes the Precure transformations can be too long sometimes. They should shorten them
@prettycure forever I won't yell at you because you're allowed to have an opinion here. 😉😉
@Glitter Force and Precure but have you even watched sailor moon at all to say this or are you just being biased?
@Glitter Force and Precure then you can't really go around saying what's better, I think that's kinda rude even if it is your opinion.
You should just say you don't know much about sailor moon but you enjoyed precure because that was your first magical girl anime cause that's great if it was! we're all anime fans either way ^^
@Glitter Force and Precure Really, because you seem to care a lot about telling everyone precure is better because you don't agree with people who like sailor moon more which is something YOU don't have control over.

Well if you're wanting suggestions, perhaps a video summarising all the Precure series if someone new wants to get into them but doesn't know where to start or which one they might have the best chance of liking.
Cakatarn I try and run a panel like that during conventions.
One thing that I love about Precure is how there are different girls every year and you watch them through the seasons grow stronger together while you learn about their past and futures
One thing I think Sailor Moon prevails in is aesthetics. The art is just so good to look at, especially the backgrounds. It's just more pleasing to the eye compared with the blindingly bright colors in Pretty Cure, which feels cheap sometimes
As a precure fan, I actually agree with this.
The older precures (precures that came out before suite) had a bit of a softer color palette and had a nicer aesthetic which was really pleasing to the eyes.
For the newer precures, I dont mind the bright colors, however the brightness can definitely get out of hand sometimes which made me have a epileptic seizure few times before.
I really love precure, but i think they need to go with more softer aesthetics tbh.

Why does Toonami not show Pretty Cure hugtto? One I'm pretty sure Adult Swim just sees the series for kids. Disney XD is just about the only other anime channel I would settle for that if I had to i guess
interesting thought but Toonami is not the right channel for Precure LOL. Precure is definitely for kids, so my dream choice would be for it to be on Netflix or hulu but with it's original name instead of glitter force
Science Project 99 Funimation could have did Precure, but because of the #KickVic thing, I think Toei would have to give the license to Viz Media and they should dub the whole thing from the original to Healing Good Precure.
@@shanthegamer21 nah it should be done by animax they did card captor sakura before and it was the best in the series because of that.
Maximo806 Umm, I think you were talking about Madhouse. THEY produced Cardcaptor Sakura.
@Maddie Playz last time I checked Crunchyroll only has the original Pretty Cure.
And Netflix is Glitter Force is not the same show. Differences aside they even just removed 5 episodes
It's like a Power Ranger type deal they essentially just took a Japanese show that's already meant for kids and then turn it into their own thing. Basically 4Kids dub
I choose sailor moon, (it's my childhood and my life :D), but yes, I watched some precure seasons: for example: fresh, happinesscharge, and i'm going to watch soon the current-airing season star twinkle.
well, about tuxedo mask, it does not always help sailor moon, many times she can wash herself, or she is the one who has to save him xD (for example in the first season he was brain-washed and she saved him with the silver crystal help), the reason why precure can hit more punches and kicks is why the cures can fly when the sailors senshis cannot, the reason why one of the comments below says that pretty cure has better fight scenes, is because SM is old and is made on paper, while PrC is made to computer and is more modern, that's why.
oh. yes: i always used to like colorful things too, and PrC it is more colorful than sailor moon (and some other magical girls (maybe), but more colorful does not mean better or make it better than other maho shojos.
When I was thinking to rank PrC above Sailor Moon it was like: Just, no. i like precure but, i found impossible to rank it above usagi.
this is mine little review of your review :D
Interesting thoughts; but something being more colorful is definitely a reason for a person to prefer something over another thing especially if someone likes colorful things as their desired aesthetic. I mean, I still haven't seen the first few Precure seasons since they are not as colorful.
And yes I know Sailor Moon saved herself many times, but it is low compared to the amounts where she needs to be saved; that is why I said "most of the time" she needs saving.
As for SM being made on paper/hadrawn animation, I don't think that's a valid reason at all. The SM series has had impressive feats of animation with beautiful attacks and trasnformations, so I doubt animating a fight scene is any different. Besides, DBZ is an old show as well, but has countless physical fights.
@@ScienceProject99 sorry if I answer late, I wanted to do it before, but I did not have time Xd
haha, I already know that people prefer something more colorful, and I have nothing against that. about how colorful are first seasons of precure, try with the first one (futari wa prc) is one of the most colorful also :D.
I repeat it again but in more detail: it is true that sailor moon needs most of time tuxedo to save her, and sometimes she can get up by herself, or she is who have to save him. but just imagine: sailor moon could fly like a cure, I would not need tuxedo to grab her when she's falling down, and imagine the cures without being able to fly, probably toei would have added some male figure in some season (or maybe I'm wrong).
oh, just as a reminder: remember, in the last season Mamoru (tuxedo mask's civilian name) went to U.S.A, so sailor moon could not count on his help during all the season, and get up by herself in most of episodes.
well, about the animation on paper and the action: my first PrC season was smile, in just the first half of this season I understood the concept of the whole franchise: sound effects of the punches and kicks always very exaggerated xD, there is a lot of dust in them, for example, in the firsts episodes of smile, the villians only gave them a small blow or push, and as soon as they reach the ground, a building or some object, a cloud of dust were appearing; and in episode 23 they confronted the allies of the main villain, and evidently quite dust. In conclusion that for the next seasons that I was going to watch I already knew how the fight scenes would be: always with punches and kicks with exaggerated sound effects in every episode, and in the half of the season and in the end quite dust, punches and kicks: in conclusion, the prc battles were already predictable; while in Sailor Moon the fact that they used those scenes in certain moments/episodes/movies was a bit more entertaining and surprising to watch, because they made those scenes be more special than usual ones.
oh, by the way, you forgot to analyze a topic (the OST): well, let me analyze it: i think both of them have a great soundtrack:
with SM: its songs almost always sounded very jazz style and they're more "simple" (best example is transformations).
with PrC: (not all the seasons, but in some of them): transformations and attacks sounded very orchestral (best examples: smile, doki doki, go princess, suite). In SM i metioned "simple", well now i can explain why: in these prc seasons they used more variety of musical instruments while in sailor moon they used less variety of them: this means: toei put more effort on PrC OSTs.
synthetic transformations OSTs: heartcatch, 1st transformation theme for fresh season.
comparing the OPs is a bit hard for me, but maybe: SM are older Jpop songs and maybe the are a bit more orchestral while PrC are modern Jpop songs and the sound a bit artificial (or maybe is the contrary, srry xd i said is a bit hard to compare them)...
about endings songs: mmm... i think SM wins, bc its endings sound more melodic and harmonious, while most of PrC is more artificial (a good example is the comparision of SM ed 1 and doki doki prc ed 1 and ed 2.
sorry if I have extended that much my text xd, I hope you have understood my review better this time :D
@prettycure forever i won't judge you, but keep on mind that not all seasons did that number of punches, i mean if you've seen star twinkle precure, the kicks and punches were really missing
@pretty cure forever my favourite is sailor moon, but i respect your opinion
@Glitter Force and Precure physical doesn't mean better though, saying precure is better because of the fights is a bit biased...
Sailor Moon is more for teens and adults while precure is just a kids show to sell toys so of course the fight scenes are exaggerated to entertain little kids and sell the toys cause kids like fast and colourful shows lol

I'm obviously more of a Sailor Moon fan, but I love both. Nothing will ever beat Japanese Magical Girls. Sailor Moon is gorgeous in its bulbousness, warmth and nostalgia, and the melodies make you feel like you've heard this tune in a past life. Precure is great for its epic fights, wide universe and franchise. And in both franchises there is a deep meaning and philosophy. I truly love both of them.
Great job with the comparisons. Pretty spot on. I actually appreciate Sailor Moon and enjoyed the series (Still do) but ever since I discovered Pretty Cure, I preferred that franchise, hairs down. It’s not everyday you see young girls fighting DBZ/Power Rangers style. Sure, not all of them would have solid action (Kirakira comes to mind) but at least you can count on them to bring something different each year. My favorite season being Smile Precure. Personally, I say the Cures in that season use their elements better in comparison to Sailor Moon.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Precure's action is definitely something that makes the series special
I love smile precure,too.

People who are unaware of other magical girl series however only know what sailor moon is: Precure is a copy of sailor moon!!!
Precure fandom: *so you have chosen death?*
Literally the only reason I know about Sailor Moon is because a girl said it's name like 2 years ago. Up until that point, I had no idea what it was. Also, I watched Glitter force like 3 or 4 years ago (I didn't have high standards). So technically I knew about Pretty Cure before i knew about Sailor Moon.
Personally, i like Pretty Cure much more. The outfits are always so nice and pleasing to the eye, I don't really like it when a magical girl group all have the same outfit with slight variations. That is the case with some seasons of Pretty Cure though, but not all. Also the fighting is always so badass and incredible to watch, especially in seasons like Hugtto. And even when they aren't throwing hands, the magical attacks are always so badass or beautiful. Like in Kira kira. There wasn't a lot of physical action, but the magical attacks were beautiful.
But that's just my opinion. Like what you want, I don't really care. Just respect other people's opinions, be civil, have some morals, thank you.
NOPE.... PRECURE ISN'T COPY OF SAILOR MOON
I LIKE SAILOR MOON BUT PRECURE BETTER
Alicja Franiak it’s not better they both good anime
PreCre(Pretty Cure) is not just a copy of Sailor Moon but an upgrade(昇華 Sublimation or 進化 Evolution)
The successor of Sailor Moon
Sailor Moon's anime staff are also very involved in the PreCure series
Fresh PreCure character designer Hisashi Kagawa and HUGtto PreCure director Junichi Sato are anime staff at the time
Voice actors include Kotono Mitsuishi (Sailor Moon) as Hummy in Sweet PreCure and Aya Hisakawa (Sailor Mercury) as Cure Moonlight in Heartcatch PreCure.
If you say precure is a copy of Sailor Moon, there are basic materials even in the case of Sailor Moon
(The Japanese folkloreTaketori Monogatari where the moon princess(Kaguya-hime) comes out en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tale_of_the_Bamboo_Cutter) (Saint Seiya and Super Sentai)
Especially in the case of Super Sentai, Naoko Takeuchi said that he was affected in the interview
Creation is made under the influence of someone. There is no completely original thing in this world
In Japan, the Pretty Cure series already exceeds the total sales of Sailor Moon products so far(About $ 1 billion for Sailor Moon and about $ 1.3 billion for Precure series)
※The difference between the two works※
Sailor Moon is tremendously popular, but the manga is a completed work, so there is no continuity unless the author draws a new work or remakes it
Precure's source is an anime created by Toei Animation, so it has continuity
@prettycure forever i cant even respect ur opinon
But Sailor Moon is inspiration for Pretty Cure
@Glitter Force and Precure try watching all 5 season of sailor moon and the 3 movies and come back if you really still think only precure is better because they're both kinda in their own lane, precure is more for kids compared to sailor moon so that's probably why you like it more.
I hate when people say all magical girl shows rip off sailor moon like toy story was the first CGI movie that doesn't mean no one else can do it and they might got inspection from it
"it's mainly just them giving a long speech"
how is this the truest thing i've ever heard-
Most people say pretty cure cuz it's underrated but even so sailor Moon is my most favorite because I get much emotional and I laugh and learn lessons from the anime
Cool comparasion B)
Make no mistake, Pretty Cure was handled much better than Sailor Moon. And also, Pretty Cure looked cuter than Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon tried too hard to be a kids dub, and failed. Pretty Cure has better looking cute girls and was successful. Despite Pretty Cure aimed at kids, it did better than Sailor Moon.
Because sailor moon is NOT FOR KIDS

What I didn’t like in Sailor Moon was that Sailor Moon was MUCH more stonger than the sailor soldiers when their whole purpose was to protect her. What was the point of protecting her when she was strong enough to do it herself and she also had tuxedo mask who saved her more than the guardians(I think).
I am currently back in a Sailor Moon phase and rewatching the 90s anime and you commented at the perfect time. I AGREE SO MUCH. It bothers me so so much how useless the Inner Senshi are in the series in both the 90s and manga. If anything, like you said, they need HER protection. they were just knocked to the side and disrespected all the time. YES. exactly. Tuxedo Mask saves the Senshi more than they do him. Pluto and Saturn also were made to be so weak in the 90s anime. It will always bother me. Even in the Stars manga/Cosmos I will never like the plot of how the Inner and Outer Senshi die easily despite being in Eternal Form.. I love the series, but the power balancing is very very poor.
I lived in japan for a month and i cant even explain how much i saw pretty cure stuff. they had posters for the movies and ads on random streets and in the stores all the kid stuff was themed precure and i even left with a bunch of precure stamps. its way more relevant than sailor moon in japan in current time
lmao that is iconic. I can't wait to visit japan.
even here in the us, some asian super markets have super sentai and precure snacks
Just imagine Sailor Moon compared to Pretty Cure is like compared Winx Club with Power Rangers/Super Sentai. Man, the comparison of the two magical girl shows are weird. For me, it's Pretty Cure because I was born to be a millennial.
Precure is the best anime to me! It's even better than SM because Precure has more action
yes!
I'ma be honest. Precure is the better franchise hands down. I know that from vids. The total number of episodes I've watched out of the 800+: 1. 1 is all I need.
Ik Precure as Precure and I live in the U.S.
Same
Finally someone who watches this show who lives in the USA I thought I was the one. btw what's your favorite seasons
Same, but I really only just started watching it. I was familiar to the dubs because I watched them when they came out, but I just started watching Max Heart.
Same
Same. I downloaded Crunchyroll because I wanted to find more anime’s, then I found out Netflix has the audacity to change the Names, styles, and language and also had the audacity to make it a Netflix original
Same here but instead of Pretty Cure it's actually Cutey Honey Flash except the monster design cause both of them have humanoid monsters
I prefer precure!
I watched both and precure is sooo good 🐻
Sailor Moon because it’s more mature
The anime or the manga?
akutagawa gin Both
TheModernFate precure is so childish and smile precure is like a copy of sailor moon but I like the other precure series
@@themoonrabbit971 Smile precure is NOT a copy of sailor moon. The two shows have a completely different storyline and characters.
Plus if you think precure is childish, I dare you to watch hugtto and heartcatch
@@themoonrabbit971 smile precure is not a copy HOW COULD THAT BE POSSIBLE IF THEY WERE BOTH CREATED BY THE SAME COMPANY. Also it's cute and it's for kids that's why :/
I love this two anime so it's BOTH!!!
the focus is different tho, precure really exist for children and to try to give them the values of friendship, to never give up, and most important, that people you may hate might actually not deserve that hate but are actually in deep need of a hand
Sailor Moon was amid at kids too you know.
I actually watched Pretty Cure first before I even new abpit Sailor Moon, but I think I still life Sailor Moon better because I think I life the characters and the story line a lot better, but that just my opinion
I never grew up watching Sailor Moon, but I love PreCure so much.
Honestly, I’m gonna have to pick Sailor Moon. The old version has a aesthetic style and such comedy that I like. I understand it very much and I think Sailor Cosmos is releasing in 2023. Sailor Moon anime is my favorite because I really love space. Pretty cure is good though, but I just prefer Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon, Mercury, and Venus are my favorite scout guardians of the inner system space. There’s much more sailor guardians, some evil, some dead, and some alive out there outer space.
Nice video
Both are awesome but my favorite is sailor moon
I'm a Sailor Moon Crystal fan Myself & you're correct in saying that I know nothing about Glitter Force as of my location in Australia.
You mean Precure
Can we all not fight
Ty I'm seeing lots of immature sailor moon and precure fans here.
@@toby2983 same
Sailor Moon is great.
Pretty Cure is my favorite show.
Crystal was underappreciated imo.
I like precutr more than sailor moon but i still like sailor moon😍😍😍
I love both of them!
i grew up with sailormoon but I prefer Pretty cure.
Same
Ok I love Sailor Moon’s art style and story; Precure’s daily story and physical strength. 90s’ SM is only good in 1 thing: most of the enemies were good and were purified.
Cant wait for the peeps who hate on each other even when they havent watched the series
I love how sailor moons transformation music in crystal is super similar to smile precures transformation :)
Bruh, they were made by the same company, it’s not a copy
Y e s
Finally someone with a brain
I unfortunately watched Glitter Force and Glitter Force Doki Doki rather then the original versions, though I intend on watching the unamercanized versions of the other seasons.
My BF is more to waiting for "What kind of Precure in the upcoming year". and myself, 10 years older, tend to ignore it and enjoy Sailor Moon series (and still cursing how nerfed Saturn over time).
These points in the precure are more of my nitpicking, tho':
1) As late, whoever leads the Precure Team tend to have more screeching/shrill voice. Maybe starting from the... especially HUG. Especially annoying in the ED singing. From that, it seems they pick the most screeching voice as the lead character.
2) I hate how Maho Girls screwed the all developments into one episode of "What if the magic is appreciated" which is closer to final and most of characters' memories are reset at point blank that they don't even have memories before that. And the big bad boss "Yami" actually wanted "YUMMY" things in the end of episode? It's better to be as OVA.
3) Singing "I LOVE RICE". You know who sings it. She seems a great senior, but singing "I love rice" all over to defeat enemies are... well, NARM, at most. And how they all go singing to defeat the big boss? Yyyyyyeah, no.
-From the same series, all the variable costume transformations are just for show for 3d stock footage instead of actually useful in combat.
4) "All Stars" deteriorates as the Precure gets too many to feat, story-wise. You need one scene to unite them, and make a conflicts for old-gen, either get kidnapped or something, and the all action-show while not too shabby, but gives nothing but "oh your favorite precure is here for 5 seconds".
5) The "Maho musical" movie is actually a good beginning for musical feat. However, one budget is spent only in one musical scene and then the next scene, the musical is so limited without variations/camera angle and such.
i really really wanna find a good place to watch precure, but i really struggle with long series. i also haven't watched all of sailor moon for the same reason. however- i will watch any mars focused episodes cuz she is my wife and i love her
animeprime is a good place to watch precure. I use it
If you don't have it, watch it on kissanime + adblocker
I would sound dumb judging books by their covers but...
“C’mon, Toei! We get it. 2’s company, 5’s a team. But Precure isn’t Super Sentai, and Sailor Moon isn’t Kamen Rider.”
I love both series so much
PRECURE 😊❤✊
Sailor moon😍😘😗🌙🐰
@@laMaricelamtz sailor moon isn't about bunnys sailor moon is about crybaby with an anoyng cat who follows them and they need to transform into the weakest and girliest magical girls of all time do you understand now?
Are you a troll? Because sailor moon is one of the most powerful magical girls of all time she gets character development and matures I can’t tell you haven’t read the manga
Can*
I’m a precure girl
Im a precure boy
@@たぬきちああ same
preeeeccuurreee
Yea pretty cure
Also, Sailor Moon isn’t for kids, but Precure is.
Also, the girls at 0:07 - 0:09 are Cure Peach, Cure Melody and Cure Whip.
I love both Pretty Cure and Sailor Moon.
Both are really fun to watch, I can’t choose lol
Ok I think you have to remember that the reason why people know Sailor Moon versus Pretty Cure it is BECAUSE of the fact that Sailor Moon was released in the US. The only seasons that have been released is the original, and the Netflix rips. Toei Animation is SO very much missing out by not giving a US release of this show because I would love to watch the other series and the original of the Netflix versions BUT I would have to search out all of them on sites that are not sites you should be using to watch Anime on. Also no Sailor Moon is still VERY popular and they did give time between the 3rd and 4ths seasons to really make it good as well as to give time for Viz Media to re-dub all of the seasons including the one season that NEVER got an English dub until 2019.
Man at that time I only knew Sailor Moon i didnt watch it yet until now but i grew up with other magical girl animes THAT LITERALLY NOBODY KNOWS UNTIL I INTRODUCE IT.
I prefer precure but to be honest i don't really hate sailor moon anymore
I personally think Sailor Moon is better because it is more mature and hits a wider audience than Precure does. I mean, people of any age can like what they like but you can tell Precure was generally made for younger kids and Sailor Moon was made for teen to adult. I do like Precure though, my favorite series is Go Princess Precure and on Tumblr, I try to do this annually thing called "Precuruary" in which every Feb I focus on blogging about Precure stuff, though, as of recent years I haven't sadly been in the mood for it.
One thing I definitely do mention in my Precure related blogs is that in terms of catching what middle school/childhood is like, Precure does a better job. I always thought the Sailor Scouts were in high school given how they look and how they act. It took me by surprise when I found out they were middle school. The design of the characters and how they behave in Precure, makes them more believable as young girls in middle school. I also like that they aren't boy crazy in Precure! I can see girls being curious about love as I once was too a young girl, but I wasn't all like "Oh this guy is hot." at most guys considered hunks by typical preps or drooling over boy bands. Not all girls, especially middle school age dream of boys and Precure definitely got that right! Though, I do do shippings sometimes, if said couple is interesting enough to me.
I was a glitter force girl when I was a kid... but the thing is it is still one of my favorite anime’s. It was my first anime.
Sailor Moon all the way ❤️❤️❤️
I agree, Smile Precure was my first precure series i ever seen and i also known Sailor Moon, and then i saw Smile Precure, The characters looks the same, The ideas looks the same, Even the personality's looks the same. I think Smile Precure is the best series who looks like Sailor Moon
I really love both series! Sailor Moon was my first anime to watch when I was 12 and then I discovered Glitter Force about a year later, I know it’s not a great dub but I’ll always be grateful for it because watching both back to back got me into magical series’s and it helped be find the version of it before it was dubbed Smile Precure which got me watching pretty much every Pretty Cure series. So, at least Glitter Force got me interested in the original Pretty Cure.
I swear to God people these days are completely stupid, always complaining about digimon being a pokemon rip off and now they're calling precure a sailor moon rip off ? 😡😤😫
Not to mention Sailor Moon and Pokemon have thier fair share of flaws too...people need to honestly wake up and see that.
Thanks for this video my pal @ssb&anime crossover will have his opinion.
Funny enough, both shows were animated by Toei Animation but made for two different demographics
I actually love both but I'll still choose Sailor Moon over PreCure series (THAT IS IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT ME TO PICK ONE), probably because it's my childhood and it holds so much nostalgia. I have watched Pretty Cure from Futari wa Precure Season 1 up until Mahoutsukai PreCure. I've stopped watching PreCure since Kirakira Precure Ala Mode aired, I've watched a few episodes tho but I don't know why I've stopped watching it. Then Hugtto Precure came, I've watched few episodes then stopped halfway (¼ way actually), same with Star Twinkle PreCure. Now, the newly aired Healing Good PreCure, I have yet to watch it.
Video suggestion: Best Precure Season(?)
Good idea
@Precure Forever Ngl as much as I love suite, I prefer sailor moon over it.
I love it but there was definitely many problems with suite and it was a bit sticky at first (I recommend watching ruclips.net/video/4DMTA1eIq3Y/видео.html for more info on suite)
I love how in smile pretty cute they basically have the same personality's as the inner Senshi but boiled down to individual elements that just get turned up.
Pretty Cure
I love sailor Moon
