22nd of Blaugust - S - Sailor Moon Crystal

What to say about Sailor Moon Crystal? It is a remake of that good old anime from the 90's Sailor Moon. To many it was their first experience of Anime. It was actually my second as I had seen Samurai Pizza Cats on Argo's Cartoon Connection before they started showing Sailor Moon. However most of us saw the butchered American dubbed version with all the characters renamed and scenes retouched to make it child friendly. This kinda made Sailor Moon a bit of a black spot after the licence ran out. So Sailor Moon just faded away.


Lately there's been a huge resurgence of Sailor Moon as they're currently re-releasing the original animation as originally intended including a new dub as well (not everybody's cup of tea but it is for some). On top of that they're also doing a new animation of the original Manga arc by the name of Sailor Moon Crystal.


Two episodes are being released every month on the web. There have been 4 episodes released so far and I'm really liking it. Rather then dragging it out like the TV series, they're basically introducing a new character every show. So far we have Sailor Moon, Sailor Mercury and Sailor Mars in the show.

So that is Sailor Moon Crystal. Go and watch it on Crunchroll Yo!
