Summary: Cute, but that's all
Review: I am a HUGE fan of Sailor Moon and I have to say that I was utterly disappointed when I got this. I received this, as well as Sailor Moon SuperS Pegasus Collections 1, 2, and 3 for Christmas of 2002.
I had high expectations for the series at first, but those high expectations suddenly turned to low ones.
This has to be the worst Sailor Moon season by far.
It is completely boring and focuses mainly on Chibiusa and Pegasus.
If you want to watch a good Sailor Moon season, watch either the first season (Sailor Moon) or the third (S).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I hate Sailor Moon.
Review: I used to love Sailor Moon when I was in high school. Yeah I loved the dub. I had no problem with the subtitled version because I pretended it never existed. My head is clear and I'm more grown up. I realize now that SM is pretty much a kid's cartoon with questionable content. I don't recommend it for anyone. It's too dumb for 13+ crowd and too mature for kids.
It's just plain dumb. Oh by the way Pink Sugar Heart attack. ^_^ if you are older than seven you'll look pretty dumb twirling around with a moonstick shouting that dopey phrase.
I recommend more mature serials like Vampire Hunter D and kid safe shows like Kimba the white lion.

Summary: Good set
Review: INTRODUCTION:
Sailor Moon is an anime series that first aired in 1992. It was based on a manga series created by Nakao Takeuchi, best known for her Sailor V series at the time. In no time at all, the series had become wildly popular, and in the mid-nineties it was ported to America. Unfortunately, it was severely edited. Some entire episodes were missing and the dialogue was butchered. Fans cried out for uncut episodes. And finally, early in the new millennium, uncensored DVDs were released. The entire Super S series, the fourth of five series, is now available uncut on DVD! Read on for my review of this set.

BASIC PLOT:
This is the fourth of the five Sailor Moon series. By now the Death Busters have been defeated, and Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus have left town. Sailor Chibi Moon has also decided to remain in the present time period rather than go back to the future. Unfortunately, the peace period is short lived. A new series of villains has arrived on the scene following the occurence of an eclipse. These new villains hunt down humans for their dream mirrors, in hope that they will find the one that their master desires. And all the while, Chibiusa keeps getting visits from a mysterious Pegasus in her dreams. What's up with this? This saga of Sailor Moon rages on for about thirty episodes.

SERIES OPINIONS:
Overall, this is a good Sailor Moon saga, but when compared to the other sagas of the series, it's strictly average. The Dream Mirror thing is pretty much a rip-off of the Heart Crystal thing from the previous series, the S series. Likewise, Chibiusa is an annoying character - although she's not QUITE as bad as people make her out to be. If you're a fan of the series, check this saga out. I think you'll enjoy it.

THE DUB:
The dubbed version of the series is in many ways better than previous sagas that have been dubbed, and worse in many ways. It's better in that it uses the original background music and that more of the character names than ever before are close to their originals, but it's worse in that some scenes are horribly translated, and many of them have been Americanized, often with horrible slang. Here's a little tip - while you're watching the Japanese subtitled version of the DVD, hit the Audio button on your DVD remote and switch to the dub track. This way you can watch the English dub with the English subtitles for the Japanese version - there's no better way to see how bad some of the translations are!

DVD:

Once again, DVDs featuring an uncut dub and an uncut sub have been released. This is great because you get both versions of the series. Unfortunately, these DVDs are severely lacking in the extras department. Why couldn't they give us things like production art and interviews with cast and crew? Those would have been great extras!

OVERALL:
Overall this is an excellent DVD set, but I remain confident that I could also have been done much better. Still, if you're a Sailor Moon fan, this is a strongly recommended release.

Summary: funny stuff
Review: Most people didn't like SuperS for its turn to comedy after the seriouse Super. But I liked it and this DV has some of the funnier episodes.

Summary: I hate Sailor Moon.
Review: Six episodes with the Amazon Quartet as the nemesis of the Sailor Soldiers. The Amazon Quartet are some of the most interesting villians in the Sailor Moon series since they embody innocence and cruelty often at the same time. Each episode is about someone with her dream symbolized by a dream mirror. It is interesting that when the character has her dream mirror knocked out of her, the character becomes lifeless. I suppose that is what happens when someone's dream is lost, the person is still alive but yet lifeless since all passions are knocked out of her.

Incidentally, the Japanese voice actress that played Sailor Moon also voiced Agent Excel in the Excel Saga.
