Summary: UNCUT SAILOR MOON
Review: I don't care for the Japanese version of Sailor Moon. I just love Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon is a great show. Now you have an option of the DIC dub(Which I love and will only buy) and the Uncut version for the purists.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Season one uncut! FINALLY!!
Review: This season of sailor moon is going to be released sometime in July. It features all 46 episodes including never before seen episodes, uncut, that were not shown in America due to its content. The final two episodes are the ones that DIC had made into one for some particular reason which sort of messed up the whole series at the end. I hope Sailor Stars comes out which is the last season of sailor moon. Personally I think that it might not be shown due to the last episode where sailor moon looks like something not for children to see. well get ready for this season!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The ONLY way to watch Sailor Moon
Review: Finally Sailor Moon will have the chance to earn the reputation it lost thanks to DIC's unforgivable, dubbed joke.
This box set will boast the actual intended story and script.
The series is 6 episodes longer. (There were 4 episodes totally cut from the dub and the last 2 episodes were halved and made into 1 - Episode 40 Day of Destiny should have been 'Sailor Senshi shisu! Hisou naru saishuusen' Epsiode 45 and 'Usagi no omoiha eienni! Atarashiki tensei' Episode 46.)
This series about a group of super powered girls who fight for the ideals of justice against inhuman evil enemies must become the only thing that comes to mind when someone mentions the words 'Sailor Moon.'
To all of those that like DIC, don't let the prospect of having to read subtitles ruin what was a fine example of anime.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Worth buying even if you own dubbed versions! Read why.
Review: This is a must-have DVD set. For fans who like Sailor Moon but who are not acquainted with with the original Japanese series---you don't know what you're missing! The DVDs, tapes and TV shows that you've seen and loved are missing jokes, sophistication, and entire episodes from the original series seen in Japan. If you purchased the uncut DVDs from seasons 3 & 4, you already know what I'm talking about. This restored, uncut version doesn't change Sailor Moon---it just makes it better, more deep, funnier and complete. Cannot wait for season #2, and hoping, praying that they finally put out season #5 Sailor Stars for North American fans!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I love DIC so sue me!
Review: The Japanese uncut version of Sailor Moon. Finally! I still love DIC. The Purists will love this version but I won't. That explains why my rating is one star.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally American Will See True Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon
Review: This has to be one the best animes made in the 90's (right after Dragon Ball), it was released in 1992 and 11 years later we get it on DVD, kind of a long ... wait though. This is overall my favorite season of Sailor Moon, R comes 2nd, don't get me wrong the dub started it all for me (Usagi's second voice actress Terri Hawks, man she was the best SM ever, even better than the original, the S actress she had to be the worst ever in history of anime), that is why I will always like it to a degree but the original is in a leauge of its own, especially, especially the ending =). I pray that ADV doesnt screw the DVD's up like Pioneer did to S and SuperS, I hope they include the original Kanji credits for the opening and endings, damn Pioneer has to translate them with that huge white english writing all over the place, I also pray that they get the Next Episode Previews in the DVD's, again Pioneer didn't put those in either...I hope ADV does this right, I personally thought the box was going to look like trash with that US Sailor Moon logo pasted on the front, I am so glad they used the Japanese logo, the box really kicks [rear-end], nice job ADV, come on guys dont let me down...only 53 days left...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sailor Moon: The way it was meant to be seen
Review: Welcome to what will certainly be a new dimension of the Sailor Moon series. For the American fans that have been exposed to the youth-friendly DiC cuts, ADV has taken the right step by introducing the first season the way it was meant to be seen. All episodes are uncut, taken off of the original Japanese masters, and fitted with English subtitles.

Many details will stand out between the American release and the unedited, original version. Perhaps this stands out the most in the final two episodes. Due to its graphic content, the final two episodes of the first season were condensed to a single episode for the American release. Here, however, you will be able to see how the Sailor Scouts' battle with Queen Beryl really ended, by seeing the final two episodes in their entirety.

Parents should be warned, however, that with the added scenes comes more suggestive dialogue and more violence, therefore this DVD box set is not recommended for young kids. (ADV's rating is Age 15+)

If I am not mistaken, ADV will also be coming out with the second season of Sailor Moon, uncut. If ADV proceeds with this release, it will be to delight of many Sailor Moon fans. That release will only leave us with the final season, Sailor Stars. There is much discussion about the more intense content in Stars, so while the release of Sailor Moon's final season in the American market is still up in the air (and may be for a long time), be sure to get your hands on the first season of Sailor Moon, uncut, which is worth the high price and is a must for anyone's Sailor Moon collection.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Took long enough!
Review: I have been waiting so many years for this release.
Sailor moon uncut and subbed only dvd release. This box set it the only way to get 1-46! There will not be a single dvd release for subbed sailor moon. no english at all on here. a good thing if you can't take the voice actors.
The box looks so good too. mark your calendars for this big release.

This is not the Sailor Moon for kiddies. 13 and up.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You'll enjoy it
Review: I simply love sailor moon, specially the first season, because it's the closest to the novels. This season is about a real life young girl who must accept her fate and responsability in saving the world (raminds me about buffy) Unfortunately, in the US version, well, the story is modified to the extreme of showing a bunch of stupid gals with awfully dumb voices doing ridiculous stuff. This is the version you'll really love. But beware! This is not Disney! Little kids may not understand some things, so please use discretion, try yo watch it with them and be ready to explain if necessary. You'll enjoy it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Well... nothing's perfect.
Review: After about 4 years of waiting, on April 17th one of the greatest news stories appeared on eternalsailormoon.org. Finally on July 15th, I bought this set, neverminding what others had warned me about, but I guess I should have listened...
My opinions:

Packaging: B+
Extra's: D-
Video: D+
Audio: C-
Content: B-
Menuing: D
Total: B

Packaging: The box is done pretty nicely. The two single cases are the ones that make the grade lower. It has "A Sailor Moon like you've never seen before" on the back with scene cathes with episode titles and dic information on the nack. The front is horribly done pictures of Sailor Moon ADV has produced. It's OK, but defenitly nothing to brag about. 8/10 80% B-

Extra's: In disc 4 & 8, they have ADV previews for upcoming series. I dont care, because the episodes itself what we expected. Still I'm dissapointed none of them are Sailor Moon realted 6/10 60% D-

Video: Dear god does this one suck the most. The video quality is the WORST I"VE EVER SEEN. Unlike Season 2, the colors are faded and the video looks like its being shown on a projector. Most people saying "Well the shows 10 years old" has nothing to do with it! ADV either got bad masters, or used bad equiptment. It has nothing to do with the show, I have fansubs with 5x better sound nad video, and their reccorded of of TV Ahashi the day they permeired. I'd give it a D+ at best

Audio: Muffled, and staticky. What's more to say? 7/10 C- Yuck

Content: The 1st season is pretty good for the most part, there's some episodes that i dont care for. For the most part the subtitle track could use ALOT of work, It's horrible! Pioneer was way more accurate, and I didn't like how they used dub terms. They changed Moon Stick to Crescent Moon Wand, Sailor Soldier to Sailor Warrior... jeezz. Well, atleast they kept Negaverse, and SAilor Scout out. I would get rid of it the 1st day I got it if they put "Sailor Scout". ADV completly failed to satisfy me 8/10 B-

Menuing: All I expected. If you've seen the PIONEER Movies (R, S, and the Super S movie, you'll know what I mean). There is just the main menu playing Moonlight densetsu, with a snapshot of the episode playing (A clip), with the title at the bottom. Pretty boring, It leaves a fansub feeling D, 6/10

MPAA Rating: NONE
My Rating: 12+.
ADV Rating: Suggested 15+, (although it also says: Contains Mild animated violence, and mature situations. Parental Guidence Suggested. )

Rated 15+ for: Fantasy Violence, theamatic elements, and subtle nudity and language.
(Subtle nudity and language means: very light)
