Yeah, someone had shown me the transformation sequence and I thought it was for a video game and not the show. o.O That's going to have to take some getting used to. ^^;

I still hope little girls would like the anime, after all they are the real public here! :)
I know a 14 year old who looks like she's in her mid 20s.. I worked with her mother for a while and she was always complaining that men in their 30's would approach her daughter and try taking her out. it's like 'DUDE! She's 14 D<' and the guys would call her a liar.. it's pretty sad. So since I see it in Real Life, I'm ok with it in an anime.

My only problems are the transformation scenes xD 9 episodes and I'm still not use to it.. that and I always hated the repetitive transformations anyway. =w=, they get old after so long.

ML: When I read the manga i was super shocked to find out he was a high school boy! I was like "But! he was a collage student in the anime D8 and had classes with the arcade onii-san dude! (andrew was his english name.. matoki his japanese name i think.. i don't see him enough to remember his name xD)



I hope they make ALL of the arcs! I want to see the REAL ending! x3

Yeah, I'm surprised too. XD I hope they do all the arches as well, and stick to the manga as much as possible. XD

The Folktales are funny.. boys peeing on priests head.

old women naming her kids the japanese version of 'happy, wonderful, and greatful' and then when her hubby dies she runs outside calling their names and saying papa is dead.. took the villagers a few minutes to realize she was calling for her kids xD

xD the story was pretty funny.. i mean the woman was old.. like in her 80s when she finally had her 3 boys o-o,

oh and there was the episode where the priest told this boy to be obediant and honest.. so the boy was.. right down to listening to the priest when he told the boy "if anything else drops off this horse you HAVE to pick it up!" and so using the priests umbrella, when the horse starting pooping, the kid caught the poop in the umbrella xD

I've been enjoying Sailor Moon Crystal so much since it's following the manga pretty closely.

My biggest compliant is also the transformation. They tried so hard to make it look good but it looks like they used a 3d modeling system instead of just drawing it. Which would have cost time and money but at least it wouldn't look so awkward since the rest of the show is drawn.

As for making Mamoru younger I agree with it. I'm a tad sad that he's not friends Andrew (the arcade worker) but I think making him younger was necessary. Either that or making the girls older, and when you look it that way it's easier to make Mamoru younger. Also something I noticed related to this is shows and movies that were made in early 90s show girls dating older men. Which I found kind of odd but maybe it was more lax back then? I watched Clueless a week or so ago and Cher was taking about how high school boys are too immature and wanted a college boy, when she was only 16 herself. While I view age as just a number now-a-days, I do wonder about it when I hear or see big age gaps. It also becomes more of a concern depending on the age of the people in the couple as well. You might not see anything wrong with a couple where one is 30 and the other is 40 but if it was like 14 and 24, you'd think the 24 year old was a pedophile.

Overall I think they're doing a great job with Crystal and I hope they realize how much we would like it to be dubbed in the future (even though I like the subs) and continued on to follow other series such as R and S, etc.

I think dating or marriage comes with maturity and partly your own age. You can date anyone at any age once your 18, and that a 2-3 age gap for anyone younger then that is acceptable. (3 is really pushing it, but it depends.)

I don't bat an eye if a 20 something married a 40 or 50 something. I find it unusual but quite frankly I don't care, even if it's someone I know. Unless she is 17 or younger then that's out of the question because there is something very wrong if a guy is dating someone that young.

Love is love, but it's full of double standards in terms of what's viewed as acceptable or not by society. So it's all based on your preference and personally trying to protect someone until they are old enough so they can choose their own decisions.

I believe the change in Sailor Moon was more with society and personal belief, that and they don't want a bunch of High School girls dating older men in order to try and protect them a bit from finding terrible older men. This is a KIDS show, my sister is 13 and she keeps wanting to date older guys until I step in, I don't need shows that boast older relationships like this to be her "evidence" until she is 18 I want to know the boy, make sure he has no devious thoughts, and hope at least there's a 2 year age difference.
