No Sailor Moon Thread??

[Pippin]

Any one watching the new series on Hulu? I have to say I like it so far not all that different from the original series yet but I love not having all the filler episodes. Definitely looking forward to the more manga focused story lines.

I am! I've only watched the first episode, but I also enjoy it so far. The graphics are amazing, so sharp!

I've seen the first two episodes on Crunchyroll! I've never seen it or read the manga, but I know it's a classic so I've been looking forward to it.

I was a little disappointed that so far Sailor Moon is ah...not exactly a fighter at this point. I hope she doesn't keep whining her way through fights and needing rescue. But I know it's early on and I'm hoping she'll improve soon. Maybe she just needs a little time, or maybe she'll improve when she has a team to fight with.

No, I haven't watched the new series yet. I am starting to watch the old one again though.

I'm watching it too! So far I'm impressed with the revamped version, the art style, and how closely it follows the manga.

Her character really grows in the manga but yeah she's pretty flaky at first lol.

Ok good  I figured it wouldn't be such a beloved series if she just stayed like that, lol!   I'm going to see if I can pick up some of the manga secondhand next time I go to a con

They've reprinted them!

ETA: Reprints are most likely going to be cheaper.

It's terrible. Graphically it's great bit the storyline and dialogue. Gah and yet I can't stop watching.

[starfish]

Its okay, art works a little wonky, and feels like they fast tracking the first season so far. Unless they are going to branch out in something new. Maybe I comparing it to the original to much.

[BlackCanary]

I love it! Don't forget, it's tied VERY closely to the manga.

  I think I read some where they were going towards the manga and not the older show. I could just be pulling that out of my ass too. I never really read any of the sailor manga, I lived in Tn and it was near impossible to find anything like that. 
  My first manga was Pet shop of horror, and it still is my fav to this day.
