Summary: The Pretty Dumb Scout Is Now The Pretty Sailor Soldier
Review: This box set is wonderful! If you ever wondered why in the American version of Sailor Moon, scenes looked weird. Or perhaps scenes looked cut, or mis matched then this is the Original version for you. The story is full of Love, Laughter, and Joy. Any fans of the dub will love this masterpiece! I recomend this to all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sailor Moon is the Best Anime around!
Review: If you love sailor moon then buy this DVD boxset. It has all 46 episodes uncut. Dic didn't even put half of the parts in and they are the most important parts of the episodes. Usagi's voice doesn't sound like she has a frog in her throat. Rei is still kinda of annyoing. Ami is no longer studying every 2 seconds. Makoto is still her usall self. Minako's voice is alpt better. And queen beryl is more harsh then the american version. Instead of prince darien hes called Endyoien or however you spell it. Remeber Jupiter is the coolest sailor warrior. Thats all for now i don't want to spoil it. This DVD is rated15 and up.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: better than this
Review: This movie is okay but I will give you a better place to buy them and cheaper. Go to ebay.com then in the search engine put sailor moon complete then there will be alot of lists. I bought something for 35.00 dollars and i got all the seasons of sailor moon including sailor moon stars and then the other movies like ami's first love and games, movies, and much more. I am the number 1 sailor moon fan in the whole world. For any more questions email me at jaoson01@juno.com

Summary: This is the best!!!!!
Review: I just got my Sailor Moon DVD set today, and I must say, it was money well spent. I am seeing Sailor Moon exactly the way it was aired in Japan. It's fantasitc! The American version CANNOT compare to the original. If you want to see what you're missing, buy this set, you will not be dissapointed! I feel that Anime are not cheaply made cartoons and should not be butchered and changed as so many anime that has been sent here. You will definitely appreciate this beautiful DVD set!

Summary: Since 1995...
Review: DIC unleashed what was to be known as one of the first few anime dubs in its time. Compare it to today, and you'll defenently be surprised. The dubbed version of Sailor Moon was mangled like a rabbit torn inside-out. After a hiatus since 1995, someone took the care (thanks ADV) to release the first season un-cut! This is fabulous and I hope it's fabulous for you too.

People who would be interested in this anime: Small Children, Young Adults, Even Grown Ups

I gave it 4 stars because it's too expensive! Otherwise I would've given it 5!

Summary: Its joys outweigh its flaws
Review: Like everyone else I was absolutely thrilled to read that the complete, uncut episodes of Sailor Moon would be made available on DVD. However, I wanted to post a few caveats to anyone who is about to buy this set. They should not stop you from buying it, but you may want to know.

1. The menuing on these DVDs is very limited - just one menu where you select which episode to play. You CANNOT turn off the English subtitling on the episodes. Although most people won't care, I would be happier if I could turn off the subtitles sometimes to concentrate on the video.

2. So far I find the sound quality pretty crummy! During the episodes themselves it sounds okay, but the music during the opening and closing sequences sounds really muffled.

Well, now that you know the couple of downsides to this box set, here are the great things about it!

1. You get each complete episode with the opening animation, commercial break "eyecatch", and closing sequence. If you are familiar with the dubbed version of Sailor Moon, this is a treat. The scenes flow together unobtrusively without the computer animated tiaras and sparkles that were inexplicably added to the dubbed version. You may notice bits of mild violence that were cut out for censors.
2. You get to hear the characters' real voices! Usagi isn't so ditzy. Luna isn't an old lady. Beryl and Jadeite are more threatening. English credits for the original voice cast have been carefully added to the ending, so you can learn the names of the characters' voice actors.
3. The packaging itself is beautiful: There is a durable foil slipcover, with two snap cases inside.
4. You get all 46 episodes, an entire season, for a pretty reasonable price.

I encourage anyone who enjoyed the dubbed Sailor Moon series, and the later subtitled DVD releases, to splurge and get this set. The more popular this box set is, the more chance there is that they will go on to release the second season, which has even more surprises and adventures than this one.

Summary: 1st season DVD set....Best quality.
Review: I got the set a few days early, they must have set it out by accident!! They did a great job, all the episodes including the ones that DIC skipped. The translation was much better than any fansub that i have watched. The sound is only in old fashined stereo and not surround anything. Original endings are available in the options, the only thing they left out were the next episode previews, but i can forgive them for that. Great Value for any Moonatic!

Summary: Cute, fun, heart-string pulling
Review: I'm not sure who wrote the "Editorial" above... But Luna (the cat) doesn't give Usagi/Serena her powers. She's the reincarnation of the legendary Sailormoon... Luna just unlocks them. She's from the kingdom that used to be on the moon before it was destroyed. She finds the other Sailor SCOUTS to help fight the negaverse which destoryed the moon kingdom and now threatens Earth...

While the individual ephisodes become patterned with respect to what happens (into bad guy, drama, bad guy bites it), there are incredible story arcs and deep character development. Fun and romance abounds in many forms. Season 1 was incredible I'd highly recommend it!

Kids will love it's innocence and nieveness... Adults will love all the things the kids won't even get... ;-)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: America will finially get to see season 1 in full splendor
Review: Being a huge fan of Sailor Moon I of course would have a say about ADV producing the first season of Sailor Moon on DVD. The first and best thing about it is that American veiwers will get the chance to see the first season of Sailor Moon in it's original Japanese animated version. Those of you who have been hanging of the English TV version of Sailor Moon are in for a real treat when you see the original Japanese version. Every goot element about Sailor Moon will increase 10-fold. All the [bad] English voices will no longer plauge your ears...All of the sounds in the original are the crisp, splended sounds of the original. I was outraged when I first heard the English voices. They don't sound ANYTHING like they should be. Most of the senshi sound like 30-year-old women, and not 14-year-old teenagers like they should sound. Also the theme song won't make you sick to your stomach, with some crappy actors saying 'she is the one named Sailor Moon' over and over again.

Once again, for those of you who have only watched Toonami or Kid's WB to get episodes of Sailor Moon, you will see the episodes that just couldn't quite make it on TV. I don't see why they didn't make it though. If they are dubbed just as bad as the rest of the English version is, then they should meet American TV critira. If I remember correctly, they didn't end show 6 of the episodes. So for all of you dubbies, you will see the missing episodes.

Along with the Japanese version, the animation qaulity will also increase 10-fold. All of the rough, and ragged English version images will go 'bye-bye'. And instead they will be replaced with beautiful, flowing color images. A true treat for any anime fan, not just Sailor Moon fan. Along with better picture qaulity, all of the scenes that were cut from the show when they went on TV, you will finialy be able to see. The lines on all of the senshi when the transform will be present again, unlike the TV version.

All in all, it may of been 11 years before the first season of Sailor Moon made it on DVD in Japanese, but it will be well worth it in the long run. One of the best anime series created will get the credit it has long deserved in America. All of the errors that DIC created, I can only pray that ADV didn't screw them up any more than they already were. So for any Sailor Moon fan, weither it be dub or sub, this is definetly for you. Heck, or for any bishoujo anime fan, you will immensley enjoy this. Following the wonderful tradition of anime, Ladies and Gentle Men, here is the first UN-cut season of Sailor Moon on DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon-FINALLY!!!!!
Review: Sailor Moon is one of the best anime's created in the 90's. Her creator Naoko Takeuchi released this in 1992 and now 11 years later we're finally being able to see its original and uncut version here in the states!I'm hoping that ADV films dosen't mess up this box set.Sailor Moon is the story of a young girl and her friends and lover who discover a long lost past, and civilization from which they were saved and sent to the future on Earth. Usagi Tsukino (SailorMoon)is found by her gaurdian cat Luna, who must ask her to transform into the super herione and to help her find the other Senshi (Soldier is its nearest meaning in english).Anyways they team up and must defeat a millinea old evil from repeating what happened to the Moon kingdom a thousand years ago..the senshi are the princess's sworn protectors and the princess of the Moon and the prince of Earth shared a forbidden love,will this ultimately save their world? Or cause both their death's like it did a thousand years ago?Are the star crossed lovers doomed to die? They must find their princess with her legendary powers of healing and stength in the first half. In the second half of the series they must defeat the Negaverse, before they take over the Earth...while protecting the Ginzouishou(silver crystal), and bring back their beloved prince whose been brainwashed! can they accomplish this all? Well, if you're not an advid fan and have just tuned into and discovered Sailor Moon you'll have to buy the set to find out!However I hope that ADV does a good job and we're able to see all the original Japanese credits and film..without leaving anything out not even the upcoming episode, and end credits..unlike pioneer!This is a moving story of love and friendship. Hopefully it will see these 14 year old girls through and help them save their world!
