Summary: Finally, Sailor Moon Season 1 Uncut!
Review: For years fans have either had to put up with the lousy dic dub or stoop to getting pirate material from ebay. Now we have an alternative that allows us to support our love for sailor moon leagally and honesty :D

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: At Last the Real Thing
Review: I was so happy to finally be able to see the beginning of Sailor Moon on DVD - heck I was happy to finally be able to see it at all - non-anglisized. I've managed to collect the entire show over the years, even getting Sailor Stars on video and DVD imports. It is a great anime.

I only gave it 4 stars though because of the quality of the audio and picture. I've had imports with better sound and picture than this. The box graphics were ok, but the style was a bit odd. I much prefer the foldout cases to the clunky plastic book type they used.

Summary: The REAL sailor moon is finally revealed......after 11 years
Review: This DVD is awesome..the show in japanese is SOO much better than the DiC version.....I first started watching sailor moon when i was 5 years old (i am now 15)which was when it was airing daily in Italy...yes i used to live there... well, a year later i came to america and was VERY annoyed to find out that the show was airing @ 6:30 in the morning..i still woke up to see it though lol...I knew even then that many things had been changed..but once I started to get seasons 4&5 on DVD i realized how much i had REALLY been missing (i.e. a LOT) ...so my advice to a fellow moonie who has been forced to see dic's version of this show is GET THIS DVD SET!!! it is worth it even if the audio and image quality is kinda poor(which is why i gave it 4 stars instead of 5)..but remember that the show is more than 11 years old-just dont expect any treasure planet animation-while tempted though u may be to buy the 2nd season dubbed..DONT...it will be better to wait...i waited for 2 years to see the first two seasons subbed....now i saw the first and i am very very very happy i waited!!!
I really really hope that ADV or Pioneer will release season 5...I have it in VCD format but its kinda crappy(the VCD not the season..the season was AWESOME..even better than S possibly)..::praying::

Summary: One of the Best DVD's Ever!
Review: Sailor Moon Season One Boxset is amazing. Some people have been complaning about the poor sound in some of the episodes. But, that is no big deal. No matter how good something is there will allways be someone to complan. It is from 1992, so some audio problems makes sense. Others want the english(Dic)versions. Those are out on DVD in Volumes.

Anyway it is great that this is finally out. I am looking forward to Season Two(Sailor Moon R).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Season 2 is coming out!
Review: Hey you all moonie fans, Sailor Moon R will be released on September 16, 2003! So soon and so great! Can't wait to see the episode when Mamoru broke up with Usagi in Japanese! A sad, but great episode.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: IS it in English?
Review: With all the recommonded reviews, before I purchase this product I just want to know if its in English? I don't like it when its in the japanese and english subtitle. I hate reading it all through the show especially when its the annoying voices. I rather have the American voices instead because they sound right and also the music background. So, someone please let me know if its in english?(American version) Thank you

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: At last
Review: Finally, Western fans will get to see Sailor Moon without any psuedo-80's jargon(Wicked cool! He's so hunky!), second rate voice acting, and that English theme song sung by twelve yr olds that has been vexing fans for years.

The only problem I have is with the quality of the picture and audio. It's been eleven years and does it show! Couldn't have been more of an effort to restore the poor sound and visuals?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ai to Seigi no Seeraa Fuku Bishoujo no Senshi, Seeraa Muun!
Review: Sailor Moon was the one that started it all, in my opinion. Without Sailor Moon hitting America, i doubt that other anime such as Revolutionary Girl Utena and Steel Angel Karumi and Fushigi Yuugi would have had a chance to rise to the level of fan recognition they are at.

Tsukino Usagi is a crybaby who gets bad grades, loves to eat, and always stops at Crown to play the latest video games.She's an ordinary girl with ordiary crushes (Motokioni for one) and ordinary problems. Until she rescues a black cat from mean little kids. Then everything changes. Usagi has responsibility, and the fitting word becomes "Moon Prism Power, Make UP!". Along with the other Sailor Senshi that she meets along the way, with the help of the kuroneko Luna, Usagi becomes a heroine that all girls can look up to.

The original is so much better than the dubs that were put out on tv, because you get to see everything in its entirity to the romance between Usagi and Mamoru to the deaths of the Inner Senshi. Its all very emotional, and the music adds to the experience. Bishoujo Senshi Seeraa Muun was not intended to be chopped up to feed to mass markets over seas, it was intended to be a beautiful story about people growing up, and even in Season 1 its apparent. I reccomend this to every diehard moonie and to all those who have a little Usagi in side of them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a quick note
Review: A past reviewer said that you can't turn the subtitles off. In fact, you can. You just need to use the Subtitles button on the DVD player remote control.

Besides the (not excellent) audio quality of the Opening and Closing themes, I can't really see a reason to not enjoy this if you're a Moonie at heart. Although there was one thing I noticed: when the Ending song changed, they didn't update the credits in the Opening. When the song was Princess Moon, the credits still read Heart Moving. Oops.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally and at long last, the REAL thing!
Review: Well, I was introduced to Sailor Moon through the dub, like so many others. I already had season's three and four (S and SuperS) on DVD, and was exstatic to find out that they were releasing season one!

I LOVE being able to watch the full episodes, uncut, and most importantly MAKING SENSE! I never really understood how bad the dub was until these arrived. Everything is clear now.... and the acting is suberb!

Like others, I would like to point out that it has been 11 years since the show originally aired, so the animation is not top of the line anymore. However, I have not experienced any trouble with the sound. (My TV is also about 20 years old, so maybe I"m just used to [bad] sound)

The only warning I would give would be to stock up on tissues! The emotions run high all season, and I bawled while watching many episodes!
