I’m surprised you didn’t mention that Minako’s English voice actor voiced Makoto in Persona 5. I’ve always loved that. Girl has the name of Sailor Jupiter and the voices of Sailors Venus and Mars.
Thanks for covering the differences between the Crystal and manga!!!! It’s been a long time since I’ve read the manga but it’s interesting the changes they made. Cant wait for you to cover Dark Moon, & Infinity. I hope you do the Eternal & Cosmos movies
The Sailor Guardian romances actually came from a scrapped concept, brought about because the manga and 90s anime were being made in tandem. It's actually an interesting story. Takeuchi wanted to give the inner scouts love lives, and even eluded to it in the Sailor V manga (which came out before Sailor Moon). However, the people working at Toei took it upon themselves to kill Jadeite, and thus Takeuchi needed to kill him off in the manga for consistency. Once the precedent was set, the other 3 were all but guaranteed to die. And then she never got around to bringing Endymion's generals back into the story. This lead to speculation from fans (ex: if the generals were revived along with everyone else), and a desire from the fanbase to see the romances be implemented (along with "fixing" other things the 90s anime changed), so it became remarkably common for spin-off material to include it.
@jennynoelle6782 oh interesting. I thought in one of the short stories casablanca memories. I thought it was hinted with jadiette and Mars but I may have miss read that and just been hopeful hahahha.
@@jennynoelle6782 only 1 chapter of sailor v was published before Sailor Moon was published and animated. The third chapter of Sailor v came out in August 1991 and was meant to be a One-Shot. It became popular and Toei was going to make an anime in tandem with a manga following SailorV but was changed to follow 5 girls in Sailor uniforms and became Sailor Moon.
The Sailor Moon RPG Sailor Moon Another Story (which mixes the canon of both the manga and anime) explores this via new characters that are dopplegangers of the four generals...such a shame this couldn't have been explored more.

Honestly, I like how the senshi killed the Kings in the manga, it showcased their power much more, and keeping them alive didn't add anything to the plot, they just died anyways lol. But I did like the short fight they had with the senshi at least.
@erivida64 I agree. I liked that it didn't always depend on sailor moon to beat them with the final blow. Which was always the thing in the original series. Sailor moon was the one to defeat them. No no the other scouts can do it too.
@@melonpeach9723 Yeah. It should have been Venus but nope. This is why in my current rewatch with my sister I treat SMC as separate from the Manga, for my own sanity.

Fun Fact: On Friday, September 13th: Adult Swim’s Toonami rewind played Sailor Moon Episode 25: Jupiter, The Powerful Girl in Love. 5 days after Emi Shinohara passed away. Sadly, Toonami didn’t dedicate to her memory! “May she rest in peace.” R.I.P. Emi Shinohara(1963-2024)
@@jasminnemcdonald94A maybe a four/five parter even, could include the side stories and Sailor V's own story too. (Or if they do anything else just Sailor V or such)
The crystal anime led to me checking out the manga when it first came out, so I think that's already a win for the series. I also liked the 3d animations, but can't say I was sad to see them go in season 3 onward. I think its prettier in 2d overall, though I don't dislike 1 or 2 for having 3d. I think Crystal had alot going against it, but still does a good job of telling the story. My one major "WHY?" was Sailor Moon couldn't revive the other guardians boyfriends in the process of everything else at the end. Felt silly to keep them around only to throw them away in the end.
@SirSailorStar yeah. In the manga like I said it almost looked like she revived them then the next chapter was a just kidding. They aren't alive. I also agree with the 3D animation. I know when I first saw it back in 2014. I was a little I don't want to say disgusted but thrown off by it. But I was still open to the idea. I see what the animators wanted to do. But I am the same way I wasn't disappointed when it was gone in season 3. 🤣
I appreciate your effort and time to make this video. I enjoyed it and found it informative. I'll subscribe and wait for your videos on the rest of the seasons. Especially the movies.
This was amazing love seeing the comparison’s to Crystal Season 1 episode’s to the manga I also think the early animation’s were not that bad not the best but they were pretty good but the CGI Transformation’s they were alright I can’t wait when you cover Season 2 and 3 specially season 3 it’s one of my favorites I look forward :D👍
Oh awesome everyone loves that season it's just epic and amazing the animation itself is way better too I can't wait for the comparison s when you talk about the manga and season 3 of crystal together I Look super forward :D👍
They reworked a lot of episodes for the DVD release, so it looks decent now - the first release of the season had a lot of horrible errors and anatomical mistakes.
@@Chris_M_Romeroshe always looks more mature (appereance wise) than what we imagine most 14 year olds to be like, but also people just kinda used to get older faster than nowadays, like if you see pictures of teenagers in the 50s or so current teens look like babies compared to them.
8:14 Sato Rina also voices Misaka Mikoto, from To Aru Majutsu no Index/To Aru kagaku no Railgun. Just thought I'd mention it because I think that is her most well-known role due to the sheer popularity and because the voice of Shirai Kuroko, the mad teleporting lesbian in love with Mikoto, also voices the first spirit Velvet ends up devouring during the prison break of the game (who is Velvet's revived sister, unbeknownst to her). Voice actor connection! :D
@TwilightWolf032 I almost said misaka Mikoto. But I just left it. Some of the actors I'm like I could go on and on about with their roles. So I'll just name some. Lol
@@GodFireBreakdowns*Gasp!* But not mentioning the Tokiwadai Ace is heresy! She's the "Electric Princess", maybe Mikoto is the princess they're looking for! Jokes aside, this is a really well put video. I have watched all of the 90's anime and the two TV series of Crystal, but I haven't read the manga. It's really nice seeing the differences (especially knowing that the part where the girls were in love with the heavenly four in their past lives wasn't in the original).
@TwilightWolf032 thank you glad you liked it. I'm working on season 2 right now. And I'm going back and forth on some of the voice actors. I'm trying not to mention one off characters that die in one episode. Because holy crap my videos will be long just because of the cast alone. 🤣
@hasseo195 because the manga didn't build anymore on those characters like the anime did. That's it. Also I have no way to confirm this. But I feel like the manga may have been rushed in some areas. Because the creator only wanted to do one arc. And they asked her to keep going. And it was planned to be released the same time as the og anime and live action show.
@@GodFireBreakdowns You’re right, Naoko only wanted to do one arc, where all the characters were dead. But Toei made her make all the other arcs because the manga and original anime was very successful. Another thing you’re right about is that the other arcs were rushed and that several villains were one shot
You mentioned that Cristina Vee and Rina Satō both play Velvet from Tales of Berseria, but another funny coincidence I find with the casting is that Cherami Leigh dubs Makoto Niijima in English. An even funnier coincidence, however, is that in the French dub of Crystal, Usagi is voiced by Anouck Hautbois, who also plays Ladybug.
All the changes in crystal were at the expense of the Inner Senshi. They got their kills taken away, their ass handed to them by Zoisite twice in a row, and Venus not killing Beryl, all manga changes. All for a new love subplot that goes nowhere, it would’ve been nice if they at least had to kill them reluctantly, instead of Metalia shooting a big laser beam that wiped them out. If she(?) can do that, then why the hell did she not use that on the Inners in the first place?
@StacyBells0806 I thought it was interesting choice to not have her question on who luna is and why should she help. Someone needed to raise the questions.
@@GodFireBreakdowns exactly, Rei also represents someone who needs time to open up and trust in the others and challenging to befriend in the manga this actually being addressed in the Casablanca Memories side chapter
Crystal was a huge part of my childhood as that, alongside Glitter Force/Smile Precure (Before you rant on me, I watched a Spanish dub that was 100 times better), introduced me to the magical girl genre!
@magicvalgirl2309 hey I get it! In my history of the show. Sailor moon was super popular in other countries and I know Spanish dubs for Sailor moon and knights of the zodiac was really popular
@magicvalgirl2309 of course! I love that series. I just hate that it didn't do well. Funny thing in the US Samurai warriors/Ronin warriors that is made by the same people did better in the US then saint seiya.
@@GodFireBreakdowns Very true! The 3D CGI series isn't actually bad! It's just some episodes we're shoehorned in for no reason. At least it's faithful to the classic!
the story and the art style were fantastic even though it had pacing issues however the 3D animation for transformation to me wasn't a smart idea, but I like they tried to experiment that I'll give them props for trying
When it comes to english voice actors, i can ONLY, ONLY watch the sailor moon dub, bc hinata? Orihime? Sakura? Misiki? Stardust cookie? naruto? Rukia? BORUTO??? ICHIGO? BORUTO? , I just noticed that bc you said it, its just like No NO NO, i cant hear the sailor moon characters being anyone else I watched the sailor moon dub 500 times ONCE and its ruined all dubs for me😂

@@GodFireBreakdowns oh for sure lol.! You can list ALL that they have done but you’d be there forever and I think it’s smart to do the most notable newer ones to give newer anime fans an idea of their history. The ones that have followed their careers know how good they all are. I met JYB at the first PowerMorphicon and he is a very down to earth dude when not in front of a panel. He is very talented along with MANY of the VAs that did the Viz dub.

@@GodFireBreakdowns I am 1200 plus years old and remember all t#ose and Akira one of my first man&a. I remember Tommy bein& evil....and Scorpina😳🥵😎 Once a ran&er......
they made a STUPID amount of changes this arc. so many of these changes were illogical, and contributed to stripping away the scouts personalities. What was all of this for, you might ask? A bland and boring love plot. It aggrevates me to no end that they focused so damn much on the “love story” between the inners/kings. i’m very mad at what they did to the fight with Beryl, and I’ll never forgive them for taking away Venus’s kill.
I am noticing more venus fans coming into my comments and telling me how they really feel. hahaha. There are more in my Season 2 comparison. I do agree they should of given venus more love though.
@@GodFireBreakdowns i’m scared to find out 😔 i always assumed Crystal was basically 1 to 1. (and with the later two movies it is, thank god.) but these changes have been making me really upset 🙁 watching rn
The generals alive was an interesting change in a way it was done for the better since they were made to find the prince and I was glad to see them alive. It's how they killed them off was so cheap. They cldve Done a better job with that. But that's just me.
@@GodFireBreakdowns I would have liked them embracing their former lovers, even kissing them before throwing them out of the way of metalia's energy or something. Though I can't stand how Metallia was just there to kill them, like why was she watching them in the first place? That was all Bery'ls doing. Seems like bad writing there.
TBH I felt that the whole "keeping the four generals alive" thing was unecessary and poorly executed. It seemed like an excuse to ship the four inners when it added nothing to their characters. When they were inevitably killed off, I just found it more goofy than sad. Zoisite and Kunzite had a more convincing relationship than whatever Crystal tried imo. That aside, I really appreciated this video going over the differences, and I'm happy you gave each voice actor a spotlight!
@zinzolin14 thank you for the support. Also I'm agree. I thought it was ironic. You bring back your friends sailor moon but you don't bring back mamoru friends? That is just rude lol
In the Manga, Naoko hints at their relationship with a volume cover. This was probably just her way of solidifying that (in her story) the 4 kings and the guardians had a past love. So the purpose would be, this is how Naoko wants it to be known.
@@nworder4life I could respect that, Naoko had a ship for each of the Inners with the Four Kings in mind. It's just the way Crystal handled it ended up being unintentionally goofy.
@@zinzolin14i think they come across as goofy because the author wanted to do something with the inners and Shitennou but, didn’t do much with that concept. Just simply an art piece. I think only Venus and Kunzite was explored.
I just wanted to say. I saw all your nier videos absolute great job. Now i see this classic from my childhood and you making videos about, i love that. For me sailor moon was one of the first animes ever. You know it was fun in school when all the other boys where hating cause sailor moon is for girls…… but i had the chance to be tuxedo mask in that scenario 😂😂😂
Hahahha. Nice! Glad you liked my nier videos! Hope you like my sailor moon videos too! I got a bit behind on season 3 but I'm planning on getting that video out soon!
I always find it weird when people mention Jonny Yong Bosch and mention famous roles of his... but never mention the roles that made him a star: Power Rangers. It actually made me wonder for awhile if I was getting him mixed up with someone else, until I finally decided to check, but yep.... he was a Power Rangers alumni.
@@primusvsunicron1 yes I am! I'm finishing up season 2. That should be uploaded this week. And then I'm going to work on season 3 next. It should ideally be a weekly thing!
@nworder4life yeah but that was the thing I didn't want to make it super long video. And tried to highlight some high level notes and then mainly focus on comparing the manga and anime.
I'm going to say it. The original anime is better than the source material and did a better job with it. And that's okay. Crystal and the source material are not that great in my opinion.
i personally would prefer the voice actor differences all segmented together. i feels disruptive to your narrative, hearing about a japanese voice actors' prior dubbing gigs when you're following the story. but those are just my two cents. thank you for the work you did on the series.
Appreciate the feedback! Yeah I keep playing with it in my other videos too. Season 3 I just named the outer guardians and pharaoh 90. But that was because I thought it would flood my video if I tried naming all the villians. I think when I get to cosmos I'll probably just name cosmos and that's it. It's getting smaller and smaller the list of voice actors I name. 🤣
I was one of those people who were dissapointed by Sailor Moon Crystal Honestly. I knew going into it that it wasn't really going to be for me because I like adaptations that aren't 1:1, like, same story different journey, and they were very clear that this was going to be true to the Manga so to an extent my thoughts were "Well then I don't need to watch it then...". I was going to just give it a few eps for the sake of being a big sailormoon fan and the minute Jadeite didn't die I was like "Oh ho ho? What's this????" and that held my attention for the rest of the Dark Kingdom Arc wondering what they were going to do with the Generals... which in complete fairness was absolutely nothing other than as kinda a callback to an original idea of the SxS Pairings. It's nice and all but I remember it being a huge arguing point in the fandom during S1 that the show was willing to deviate to keep the Generals alive, but not to make better pacing among other complaints. I watched up through the Sailor Moon R arc before I kinda gave up on Crystal. The S arc was always a slog to get through both in the 90s anime and the manga and R and optionally Stars always felt kinda like the true finale to the premise to me? If they did a reboot of Sailor moon again I would love to see it as an alternate universe story where the creators talk to Naoko Takeuchi and try to use her original ideas like Ami being a cyborg and everyone dying like in the anime.
@KichiMiangra you broke my heart. Sailor moon S was always my favorite 🤣🤣🤣 but it's a interesting take. For me I felt that way with Super S in the original series. But it's unfortunate on what seems to be production issues as well. And gave us a rushed thing. Sadly seems like this series is just doomed to he rushed. 😭 I had the same thought process as you. Well I don't have to watch it if it's 1:1. But I did because I too loved sailor moon. But man sometimes that animation was hard to watch. But it was way more enjoyable to rewatch when I rewatched it for these videos. But I get it. It isn't going to win everyone.
@@GodFireBreakdowns Oh that doesn't surprise me! S is EVERYBODY'S favorite arc but mine lol! Ironically it sorta felt like Transitional filler to me. 7 Year old babby me who was a super fan watching it just felt like "What... it's still going?" after R ended. The Dark Kingdom was them denying their tragic past lives from repeating, and then the R arc was them saving the future they created (Thus why Chibiusa conveniently appeared right after the Dark Kingdom Arc finale because this was the earliest point she could appear without flat out aborting herself from history) And then S starts and my wee babby brain thought it was just because they were obligated to fill up the whole solar system. Crystal was soo soo rough when it came out initially that it almost felt disrespectful to the mother of the magical girl genre. The fandom though... the fandom was intolerable weather you liked Crystal or didn't haha
@KichiMiangra see the funny thing is I hated super s as a kid. Thought the season was boring. As I got older and the manga was re-released and I finally got to read it. Man super s I felt was done dirty in the og anime. But that's my bias because I love the outer scouts and they are their fighting with everyone. And them seeing their princess forms. Omg fan girl!! Lol. That is one of my favorite moments. So when they animated it in eternal. I was so happy.
@@GodFireBreakdowns As much as It was a still sloggish for me, Super S was WAAAAAAAAAY better in the manga! I will give them this, I'm glad that the people who loved the manga are finally getting to see those specific scenes in animation, even if it's not for me in the end. I still get the joy of learning Magic Knight Rayearth is getting a new anime, a series that has always made sure every adaptation has them taking a different Journey to the same destination so I am still being fed :) I totally understand Biases to certain characters. I honestly would really love if someone did a Sailor moon spinoff about Queen Beryl. She was the first villain but sorta under explored. The minute I read the Manga for the first time and realized Beryl had... a LIFE before awakening to her past life I sorta became obsessed with her. Like... did she have a family? Siblings? Are Parents wondering were their adult scientist daughter vanished to? Was she always kinda a bitch and then awakened by Metalia and just continued her bitchery but now with magic or did she just get worn down by this life until she decided she was ENTITLED to all the stuff her past life was denied like ruling the world and having an under-aged boyfriend? She was fine when I thought she was just frozen in ice for a bajillion years and woke up to start her evil bidding as usual but finding out she was SOMEONE before becoming Beryl again? My OCD kicked in. Aslo on/off topic I just learned today that a Mini Moon is a REAL THING! I thought that was just a silly "It's sailor moons future sailor scout daughter MINI MOON cuz she's a kid lol!" But it turns out a Mini Moon Is an Asteroid that spends a period of time orbiting the earth without escaping the gravitational pull or burning up. And that Blew my mind because Chibiusa, Sailor Minimoon in english, has her own sailor guardians and they are the SAILOR ASTEROIDS!
I know. I really like how you did your video summary of the Dark Kingdom arc with tons of trivia and opinions. I was so happy when Toei announced Sailor Moon was getting rebooted, would be sticking closer to manga, cover the Dark Kingdom arc and would have 26 episodes. I thought it would be similar to PGSM but animated, especially with the Shitennou not being killed in acts 3-5. But between the derpy animation, the 1:1 format and the several year gaps between season 2 and 3, then several between season 3 and the Eternal/Cosmos movies and finally the characters lead design being changed each time the reboot was in production just ruined it for me
honestly, the only issue with the 3D transformations were the often-memed Usagi noodle arms. The other senshi's transformations were fine, I especially think Mars, Jupiter and Venus had better transformations in S1/2 vs S3 onwards, especially S1/S2 Venus getting a ribbon motif to tie into her role as the body double of Moon/Serenity.
I know this isn't part of the Dark Kingdom Arc, but what I find interesting are the Starlight Scouts. I understand they had to disguise themselves, but why did they choose to hide as male singers instead of female singers. Doesn't bother me that they chose men, just curious as to why.
@HOTAStudios yeah it's interesting. In that aspect. I think naoko takeuchi was way ahead of the times. Because uranes doesn't identify as male and female. We got the starlights like you said. When I get into those breakdowns I'm going to try and research those points.
@@GodFireBreakdownsI can save you a little trouble on Uranus. Takeuchi was asked that question about Uranus years ago. Uranus isn't trans or anything, but she prefers male clothing. When she answers Usagi, "Why can't I be both" takeuchi said she was trying to preserve hers and Neptune's identity as in not to reveal it just yet. Or at least that is what I read anyway.
I do NOT like the shitenou x senshi shipping apart from kunzite and venus than were actually shown to have a thing in the past in actual text, no other pairing makes sense to me just bcs a art, suddenly they are "the love of their lives" 😂😂😂 what???. It annoys me so much how dirty Minako and Rei were done in Crystal.
AphroditEE it's pronounced AphroditEE Truthfully...I can't stand the Viz dub. I enjoy the voices of the DIC dub far more. I wish they had gotten the OG cast.
My brother giving me grief now too. im embarrassed lol It would of been cool if they got the OG actors. But I think there was also rumors Toei animation had something to do with that as well.

There’s so many fun facts to learn about.
Season 2 is coming soon! Just finishing up the editing on it! then I am going to start re-watching season 3 and re-reading that portion of the manga.
Okay I really need this for it all cuz I don’t know any of the differences and if Crystal actually changes things from the source material as it progresses.
@@romeostruedude I am working on doing this for the whole series. I'm currently working on season 2 right now!

Fun Fact: On Friday, September 13th: Adult Swim’s Toonami rewind played Sailor Moon Episode 25: Jupiter, The Powerful Girl in Love. 5 days after Emi Shinohara passed away. Sadly, Toonami didn’t dedicate to her memory! “May she rest in peace.”
R.I.P. Emi Shinohara(1963-2024)
Awwwww that's to bad but still cool that sailor moon being played on too Nami again!
In the future, if they were to do Sailor Moon as a full length movie, they should do the storyline from the manga
That would be a very long movie. Ahhaha
@@GodFireBreakdowns It would. But maybe like a two part movie. Like how they did for Sailor Moon Eternal and Sailor Moon Cosmos.
@@jasminnemcdonald94A maybe a four/five parter even, could include the side stories and Sailor V's own story too.
(Or if they do anything else just Sailor V or such)
The crystal anime led to me checking out the manga when it first came out, so I think that's already a win for the series.
I also liked the 3d animations, but can't say I was sad to see them go in season 3 onward. I think its prettier in 2d overall, though I don't dislike 1 or 2 for having 3d.
I think Crystal had alot going against it, but still does a good job of telling the story. My one major "WHY?" was Sailor Moon couldn't revive the other guardians boyfriends in the process of everything else at the end. Felt silly to keep them around only to throw them away in the end.
@SirSailorStar yeah. In the manga like I said it almost looked like she revived them then the next chapter was a just kidding. They aren't alive.
I also agree with the 3D animation. I know when I first saw it back in 2014. I was a little I don't want to say disgusted but thrown off by it. But I was still open to the idea. I see what the animators wanted to do. But I am the same way I wasn't disappointed when it was gone in season 3. 🤣
I appreciate your effort and time to make this video. I enjoyed it and found it informative.
I'll subscribe and wait for your videos on the rest of the seasons. Especially the movies.
@ShinteiKun I appreciate the support! I am working on season 2 video right now! Should hopefully have it up within the next few days!
@@GodFireBreakdowns take your time. Value your physical and mental health over creating content. I know RUclips can be a soul sucking career.
Oh this is so good! I love it. I can’t wait til it’s time for Saturn and Galaxia.
@Art-zp1qg thank you! I'm so excited too! I am working on season 2 right now. Should hopefully have that one done real soon!
neat video
couldn't wait to see more
😙
Thank you there is more to come!!
This was amazing love seeing the comparison’s to Crystal Season 1 episode’s to the manga I also think the early animation’s were not that bad not the best but they were pretty good but the CGI Transformation’s they were alright I can’t wait when you cover Season 2 and 3 specially season 3 it’s one of my favorites I look forward :D👍
Oh season 3 is my favorite! So I can't wait for that either. It gives me an excuse to rewatch it and re-read the manga! lol
Oh awesome everyone loves that season it's just epic and amazing the animation itself is way better too I can't wait for the comparison s when you talk about the manga and season 3 of crystal together I Look super forward :D👍
They reworked a lot of episodes for the DVD release, so it looks decent now - the first release of the season had a lot of horrible errors and anatomical mistakes.
@@julauk 100% now that I'm rewatching it. It looks so much better. Last time I watched it was when it first aired.
What do u mean? The 1990s animation had so much better and more dynamic vusuals
Really good review of the new Sailormoon crystal I been sub a while 😊
@@QuintrellDemary thank you! I appreciate it. I'm working on my season 2!
There's absolutely no way in hell Usagi is 14
Usagi yes. Serenity is thousands of years old lol.
@@GodFireBreakdowns oh no, not that trope again 😱 but jokes aside, what I mean is that she looks much older than 14 in this iteration of the story.
@@Chris_M_Romeroshe always looks more mature (appereance wise) than what we imagine most 14 year olds to be like, but also people just kinda used to get older faster than nowadays, like if you see pictures of teenagers in the 50s or so current teens look like babies compared to them.
8:14 Sato Rina also voices Misaka Mikoto, from To Aru Majutsu no Index/To Aru kagaku no Railgun.
Just thought I'd mention it because I think that is her most well-known role due to the sheer popularity and because the voice of Shirai Kuroko, the mad teleporting lesbian in love with Mikoto, also voices the first spirit Velvet ends up devouring during the prison break of the game (who is Velvet's revived sister, unbeknownst to her).
Voice actor connection! :D
@TwilightWolf032 I almost said misaka Mikoto. But I just left it. Some of the actors I'm like I could go on and on about with their roles. So I'll just name some. Lol
@@GodFireBreakdowns*Gasp!*
But not mentioning the Tokiwadai Ace is heresy! She's the "Electric Princess", maybe Mikoto is the princess they're looking for!
Jokes aside, this is a really well put video. I have watched all of the 90's anime and the two TV series of Crystal, but I haven't read the manga. It's really nice seeing the differences (especially knowing that the part where the girls were in love with the heavenly four in their past lives wasn't in the original).
@TwilightWolf032 thank you glad you liked it. I'm working on season 2 right now. And I'm going back and forth on some of the voice actors. I'm trying not to mention one off characters that die in one episode. Because holy crap my videos will be long just because of the cast alone. 🤣
Why are all enemie`s one shooted in the manga?
@hasseo195 because the manga didn't build anymore on those characters like the anime did. That's it. Also I have no way to confirm this. But I feel like the manga may have been rushed in some areas. Because the creator only wanted to do one arc. And they asked her to keep going. And it was planned to be released the same time as the og anime and live action show.
@@GodFireBreakdowns You’re right, Naoko only wanted to do one arc, where all the characters were dead. But Toei made her make all the other arcs because the manga and original anime was very successful. Another thing you’re right about is that the other arcs were rushed and that several villains were one shot
@@GodFireBreakdowns Regarding PGSM, it was first announced on September 27, 2003.
@sofijones5048 what was September of 2003?
You mentioned that Cristina Vee and Rina Satō both play Velvet from Tales of Berseria, but another funny coincidence I find with the casting is that Cherami Leigh dubs Makoto Niijima in English.
An even funnier coincidence, however, is that in the French dub of Crystal, Usagi is voiced by Anouck Hautbois, who also plays Ladybug.
All the changes in crystal were at the expense of the Inner Senshi. They got their kills taken away, their ass handed to them by Zoisite twice in a row, and Venus not killing Beryl, all manga changes. All for a new love subplot that goes nowhere, it would’ve been nice if they at least had to kill them reluctantly, instead of Metalia shooting a big laser beam that wiped them out. If she(?) can do that, then why the hell did she not use that on the Inners in the first place?
It was def a sub plot that could of been utilized better. ☹️
I hate that they reduced Sailor Mars to just a back up singer. She almost has no personality here, when she's supposed to be at the forefront.
@StacyBells0806 I thought it was interesting choice to not have her question on who luna is and why should she help. Someone needed to raise the questions.
@@GodFireBreakdowns exactly, Rei also represents someone who needs time to open up and trust in the others and challenging to befriend in the manga this actually being addressed in the Casablanca Memories side chapter
@@olivergaspar6729
I had hoped for a chapter with Mars where she actually becomes a bit more open towards men and can differentiate from the rude ones
Crystal was a huge part of my childhood as that, alongside Glitter Force/Smile Precure (Before you rant on me, I watched a Spanish dub that was 100 times better), introduced me to the magical girl genre!
@magicvalgirl2309 hey I get it! In my history of the show. Sailor moon was super popular in other countries and I know Spanish dubs for Sailor moon and knights of the zodiac was really popular
@GodFireBreakdowns You know Saint Seiya too!? Cool!
@magicvalgirl2309 of course! I love that series. I just hate that it didn't do well. Funny thing in the US Samurai warriors/Ronin warriors that is made by the same people did better in the US then saint seiya.
@@GodFireBreakdowns Very true! The 3D CGI series isn't actually bad! It's just some episodes we're shoehorned in for no reason. At least it's faithful to the classic!
@@magicvalgirl
I wouldn’t say it’s faithful. It had a few bits of their own spin on the manga. But I feel like it’s meh
the story and the art style were fantastic even though it had pacing issues however the 3D animation for transformation to me wasn't a smart idea, but I like they tried to experiment that I'll give them props for trying
When it comes to english voice actors, i can ONLY, ONLY watch the sailor moon dub, bc hinata? Orihime? Sakura? Misiki? Stardust cookie? naruto? Rukia? BORUTO??? ICHIGO? BORUTO? , I just noticed that bc you said it, its just like No NO NO, i cant hear the sailor moon characters being anyone else
I watched the sailor moon dub 500 times ONCE and its ruined all dubs for me😂
@@Razorrrrrrrrrrrr wait till we get into the other seasons. Lol.
@@GodFireBreakdowns Now I #ave to watc# Crystal because My Akeno🖤 and My Lucy💛 are sailor V😹😻 also Yoruic#i💞👻 Amazin& video....I &otta finis# Sailor moon💀👹💖 For Serena sake😂🤭
@@chriscassul9904 lol a lot of great and talented actors they got for this show!
@@GodFireBreakdowns Well ..I look forward to learnin& more about meat ball #ead🐰 Id like to learn more about t#e movies too🌛 Keep up t#e &ood work🌠🌌🌩
I would request: Inuyasha as the next review, but that would take way too long! Instead I would pick: Hunter x Hunter by Yoshihiro Togashi.
Excuse me? Johnny Young Bosch is known way more for being the second black k Power Ranger and Vash the Stampede! Well...I guess it depends on what generation you're from huh? *is olllldd*
Johnny has MANY credits to his name for sure. Yeah I’m 45 and I’m one of those xenials that got her introduction to Johnny through Power Rangers. Yes Vash, Ichigo, and MANY MANY more. It still makes me laugh when he does the characters that are goofy and always laughing and screaming because it’s a stark contrast to the character Adam Park 😂
@jerfuhrer2581 yeah I grew up with him in akira too. I just picked some of the first ones that came to my mind. All these actors have so many roles.
@@GodFireBreakdowns oh for sure lol.! You can list ALL that they have done but you’d be there forever and I think it’s smart to do the most notable newer ones to give newer anime fans an idea of their history. The ones that have followed their careers know how good they all are.
I met JYB at the first PowerMorphicon and he is a very down to earth dude when not in front of a panel. He is very talented along with MANY of the VAs that did the Viz dub.
@katiec6289 we also got akira hahaha. But I just named the first ones that came to mind. I knew I was going to get someone in the comments to point out I left out vash hahaha.
@@GodFireBreakdowns I am 1200 plus years old and remember all t#ose and Akira one of my first man&a. I remember Tommy bein& evil....and Scorpina😳🥵😎 Once a ran&er......
they made a STUPID amount of changes this arc. so many of these changes were illogical, and contributed to stripping away the scouts personalities. What was all of this for, you might ask? A bland and boring love plot. It aggrevates me to no end that they focused so damn much on the “love story” between the inners/kings. i’m very mad at what they did to the fight with Beryl, and I’ll never forgive them for taking away Venus’s kill.
I am noticing more venus fans coming into my comments and telling me how they really feel. hahaha. There are more in my Season 2 comparison. I do agree they should of given venus more love though.
@@GodFireBreakdowns i’m scared to find out 😔 i always assumed Crystal was basically 1 to 1. (and with the later two movies it is, thank god.) but these changes have been making me really upset 🙁 watching rn
The generals alive was an interesting change in a way it was done for the better since they were made to find the prince and I was glad to see them alive.
It's how they killed them off was so cheap. They cldve Done a better job with that. But that's just me.
@maytalacedo2942 I agree. That is something they could of done better.
@@GodFireBreakdowns I would have liked them embracing their former lovers, even kissing them before throwing them out of the way of metalia's energy or something. Though I can't stand how Metallia was just there to kill them, like why was she watching them in the first place? That was all Bery'ls doing. Seems like bad writing there.
TBH I felt that the whole "keeping the four generals alive" thing was unecessary and poorly executed. It seemed like an excuse to ship the four inners when it added nothing to their characters. When they were inevitably killed off, I just found it more goofy than sad. Zoisite and Kunzite had a more convincing relationship than whatever Crystal tried imo.
That aside, I really appreciated this video going over the differences, and I'm happy you gave each voice actor a spotlight!
@zinzolin14 thank you for the support.
Also I'm agree. I thought it was ironic. You bring back your friends sailor moon but you don't bring back mamoru friends? That is just rude lol
@@GodFireBreakdowns yeah what gives?? It's like Usagi wants to keep Mamoru isolated and friendless so he'd crave her affection more 🥲
In the Manga, Naoko hints at their relationship with a volume cover. This was probably just her way of solidifying that (in her story) the 4 kings and the guardians had a past love. So the purpose would be, this is how Naoko wants it to be known.
@@nworder4life I could respect that, Naoko had a ship for each of the Inners with the Four Kings in mind. It's just the way Crystal handled it ended up being unintentionally goofy.
@@zinzolin14i think they come across as goofy because the author wanted to do something with the inners and Shitennou but, didn’t do much with that concept. Just simply an art piece. I think only Venus and Kunzite was explored.
I just wanted to say. I saw all your nier videos absolute great job. Now i see this classic from my childhood and you making videos about, i love that. For me sailor moon was one of the first animes ever. You know it was fun in school when all the other boys where hating cause sailor moon is for girls…… but i had the chance to be tuxedo mask in that scenario 😂😂😂
Hahahha. Nice! Glad you liked my nier videos! Hope you like my sailor moon videos too! I got a bit behind on season 3 but I'm planning on getting that video out soon!
@@GodFireBreakdowns iim looking forward to that 🫡 i love your videos
I still love love love this artstyle.
I appreciate both. After rewatching it. I am more like this animation is not bad.
I always find it weird when people mention Jonny Yong Bosch and mention famous roles of his... but never mention the roles that made him a star: Power Rangers.
It actually made me wonder for awhile if I was getting him mixed up with someone else, until I finally decided to check, but yep.... he was a Power Rangers alumni.
will you do season 2, season 3 and the movies too?
@@primusvsunicron1 yes I am! I'm finishing up season 2. That should be uploaded this week. And then I'm going to work on season 3 next. It should ideally be a weekly thing!
No mention of Homura for Christina Vee?
Crystal was a hot mess
If Usagi doesn’t know how use a Computer then why didn’t the animators animate Luna using the computer?
Art style looks very retro
Original Sailor Moon big episode and season 5
I'm shocked you just completely skipped Tuxedo mask kissing Usagi while she was sleeping on the balcony, I felt like that was kinda big LOL.
@nworder4life yeah but that was the thing I didn't want to make it super long video. And tried to highlight some high level notes and then mainly focus on comparing the manga and anime.
@GodFireBreakdowns Right, but the kiss happens in both. I just thought it was important.
They take a lot away from Venus vs. the manga
Great video comparing the two mediums. Got a sub from me.
Though, I’d love maybe some background music to accompany it, if you can❤
@@GimmeTOKYO yeah gotta find something for that! But appreciate the support!
I'm going to say it. The original anime is better than the source material and did a better job with it. And that's okay. Crystal and the source material are not that great in my opinion.
That is fair. The manga does raise more questions then answers to be honest lol.
i personally would prefer the voice actor differences all segmented together. i feels disruptive to your narrative, hearing about a japanese voice actors' prior dubbing gigs when you're following the story. but those are just my two cents. thank you for the work you did on the series.
Appreciate the feedback! Yeah I keep playing with it in my other videos too. Season 3 I just named the outer guardians and pharaoh 90. But that was because I thought it would flood my video if I tried naming all the villians. I think when I get to cosmos I'll probably just name cosmos and that's it. It's getting smaller and smaller the list of voice actors I name. 🤣
I would love to get the manga from the 90’s but all bookstores that is ”cheap” and swedish (for shipping cost reason) I only find the eternal edition
@belladonna__ssjo I ended up finding some of the older volumes at antique stores which makes me sad to say. And then some used collectable stores.
I was one of those people who were dissapointed by Sailor Moon Crystal Honestly. I knew going into it that it wasn't really going to be for me because I like adaptations that aren't 1:1, like, same story different journey, and they were very clear that this was going to be true to the Manga so to an extent my thoughts were "Well then I don't need to watch it then...".
I was going to just give it a few eps for the sake of being a big sailormoon fan and the minute Jadeite didn't die I was like "Oh ho ho? What's this????" and that held my attention for the rest of the Dark Kingdom Arc wondering what they were going to do with the Generals... which in complete fairness was absolutely nothing other than as kinda a callback to an original idea of the SxS Pairings. It's nice and all but I remember it being a huge arguing point in the fandom during S1 that the show was willing to deviate to keep the Generals alive, but not to make better pacing among other complaints.
I watched up through the Sailor Moon R arc before I kinda gave up on Crystal. The S arc was always a slog to get through both in the 90s anime and the manga and R and optionally Stars always felt kinda like the true finale to the premise to me?
If they did a reboot of Sailor moon again I would love to see it as an alternate universe story where the creators talk to Naoko Takeuchi and try to use her original ideas like Ami being a cyborg and everyone dying like in the anime.
@KichiMiangra you broke my heart. Sailor moon S was always my favorite 🤣🤣🤣 but it's a interesting take. For me I felt that way with Super S in the original series. But it's unfortunate on what seems to be production issues as well. And gave us a rushed thing. Sadly seems like this series is just doomed to he rushed. 😭
I had the same thought process as you. Well I don't have to watch it if it's 1:1. But I did because I too loved sailor moon. But man sometimes that animation was hard to watch. But it was way more enjoyable to rewatch when I rewatched it for these videos. But I get it. It isn't going to win everyone.
@@GodFireBreakdowns Oh that doesn't surprise me! S is EVERYBODY'S favorite arc but mine lol! Ironically it sorta felt like Transitional filler to me. 7 Year old babby me who was a super fan watching it just felt like "What... it's still going?" after R ended. The Dark Kingdom was them denying their tragic past lives from repeating, and then the R arc was them saving the future they created (Thus why Chibiusa conveniently appeared right after the Dark Kingdom Arc finale because this was the earliest point she could appear without flat out aborting herself from history) And then S starts and my wee babby brain thought it was just because they were obligated to fill up the whole solar system.
Crystal was soo soo rough when it came out initially that it almost felt disrespectful to the mother of the magical girl genre. The fandom though... the fandom was intolerable weather you liked Crystal or didn't haha
@KichiMiangra see the funny thing is I hated super s as a kid. Thought the season was boring. As I got older and the manga was re-released and I finally got to read it. Man super s I felt was done dirty in the og anime. But that's my bias because I love the outer scouts and they are their fighting with everyone. And them seeing their princess forms. Omg fan girl!! Lol. That is one of my favorite moments. So when they animated it in eternal. I was so happy.
@@GodFireBreakdowns As much as It was a still sloggish for me, Super S was WAAAAAAAAAY better in the manga! I will give them this, I'm glad that the people who loved the manga are finally getting to see those specific scenes in animation, even if it's not for me in the end. I still get the joy of learning Magic Knight Rayearth is getting a new anime, a series that has always made sure every adaptation has them taking a different Journey to the same destination so I am still being fed :)
I totally understand Biases to certain characters. I honestly would really love if someone did a Sailor moon spinoff about Queen Beryl. She was the first villain but sorta under explored. The minute I read the Manga for the first time and realized Beryl had... a LIFE before awakening to her past life I sorta became obsessed with her. Like... did she have a family? Siblings? Are Parents wondering were their adult scientist daughter vanished to? Was she always kinda a bitch and then awakened by Metalia and just continued her bitchery but now with magic or did she just get worn down by this life until she decided she was ENTITLED to all the stuff her past life was denied like ruling the world and having an under-aged boyfriend? She was fine when I thought she was just frozen in ice for a bajillion years and woke up to start her evil bidding as usual but finding out she was SOMEONE before becoming Beryl again? My OCD kicked in.
Aslo on/off topic I just learned today that a Mini Moon is a REAL THING! I thought that was just a silly "It's sailor moons future sailor scout daughter MINI MOON cuz she's a kid lol!" But it turns out a Mini Moon Is an Asteroid that spends a period of time orbiting the earth without escaping the gravitational pull or burning up. And that Blew my mind because Chibiusa, Sailor Minimoon in english, has her own sailor guardians and they are the SAILOR ASTEROIDS!
@KichiMiangra I did not know that for mini moon!!! Man I an finishing up my season 2 video that would of been a interesting fact to add!
The dialogue is not word for word of manga.
Doesn't that depend on the translation :)
I know. I really like how you did your video summary of the Dark Kingdom arc with tons of trivia and opinions. I was so happy when Toei announced Sailor Moon was getting rebooted, would be sticking closer to manga, cover the Dark Kingdom arc and would have 26 episodes. I thought it would be similar to PGSM but animated, especially with the Shitennou not being killed in acts 3-5. But between the derpy animation, the 1:1 format and the several year gaps between season 2 and 3, then several between season 3 and the Eternal/Cosmos movies and finally the characters lead design being changed each time the reboot was in production just ruined it for me
Funny how NASA has never found the Moon Kingdom! /j
I actually love the 3D effect for the transformations in Crystal.
It took me sometime to adjust but i did grow to enjoy it.
Still makes my eyes sore IMO
honestly, the only issue with the 3D transformations were the often-memed Usagi noodle arms. The other senshi's transformations were fine, I especially think Mars, Jupiter and Venus had better transformations in S1/2 vs S3 onwards, especially S1/S2 Venus getting a ribbon motif to tie into her role as the body double of Moon/Serenity.
ew
Yes
22:10 damn I wasn't aware she could revive the dead lol
@Pastadudde yep she is super powerful.
Original v.s reboot
@kingdevin66 both lol
They sure kiss a lot.. and somehow they get extra powers by kissing..😂
I know this isn't part of the Dark Kingdom Arc, but what I find interesting are the Starlight Scouts. I understand they had to disguise themselves, but why did they choose to hide as male singers instead of female singers. Doesn't bother me that they chose men, just curious as to why.
@HOTAStudios yeah it's interesting. In that aspect. I think naoko takeuchi was way ahead of the times. Because uranes doesn't identify as male and female. We got the starlights like you said. When I get into those breakdowns I'm going to try and research those points.
@@GodFireBreakdownsI can save you a little trouble on Uranus. Takeuchi was asked that question about Uranus years ago. Uranus isn't trans or anything, but she prefers male clothing. When she answers Usagi, "Why can't I be both" takeuchi said she was trying to preserve hers and Neptune's identity as in not to reveal it just yet. Or at least that is what I read anyway.
@@HOTAStudios oh interesting thank you for the insight!!
I always thought it was fairly obvious. Boy bands sing love songs for girls and the starlights were singing love songs to their princess.
The Gods aren't... "also called"... sigh... you must be American...
Oh no the secret is out!
I do NOT like the shitenou x senshi shipping apart from kunzite and venus than were actually shown to have a thing in the past in actual text, no other pairing makes sense to me just bcs a art, suddenly they are "the love of their lives" 😂😂😂 what???. It annoys me so much how dirty Minako and Rei were done in Crystal.
Afro dai tee
AphroditEE it's pronounced AphroditEE
Truthfully...I can't stand the Viz dub. I enjoy the voices of the DIC dub far more. I wish they had gotten the OG cast.
My brother giving me grief now too. im embarrassed lol
It would of been cool if they got the OG actors. But I think there was also rumors Toei animation had something to do with that as well.
no one cares about the English voice actors...
Nice
Thank you :) I just uploaded season 2!
@@GodFireBreakdowns that is great 😎
