  • I love Sailor Moon , because it's 20th anniversary!

  • Blast! where's the SMA parody of this?

  • "Boys will love the non-stop action" LOL more like boys will love the fact that they're school girls in skirts giving superkicks XD XD

  • LOL! The names, voices, just makes me laugh, especially since they dubbed the names better in the actual dub. Victoria? Blue? Sara? Dana? Carrie? The Masked Tuxedo? XD  Thank God I didn't see this ad or else I might not have even watched Sailor Moon. Ok I probably would have, but I woulda been soooo confused!

  • LOL! this is so funny!

  • I love how it's all about the money and sales.

  • @ChibiDarkGirl Yeah, and I love how they don't even try and be discrete about it in the video.

  • Why would anyone care about the Dub version? Back then, Internet was not around, how would we watch the Japanese version? I mean, USA's main language is English DUH

  • I like Serena better then Victorius (fits her historic Princess name)

  • LMAO "Her friend, Blue."

  • And I thought 4Kids was evil!

  • The Masked Tuxedo?!

  • this made baby Jesus cry.

  • 1:17 - Yeah, that's totally why I started watching this as a young teen male. Had nothing to do with seeing girls in tight outfits. Nah, that had nothing to do with it at all.

  • Blue. Is anyone else insulted???

  • @oOMoonlightMelodyOo i'm glad they kept her name as Amy like in the original

  • 1:00

    Wide audience appeal? It was written by a woman to appeal towards girls! WTF?!

  • @dudejo Yeah, well so was MLP:FiM, but...

  • @JaySticLe

    You'd have to tie me to a chair by force if you expect me to watch My Little effing Pony...

  • NAMES ARE WRONG!!!!!!

  • @SummerRox781 yea they redub the names which are so much better. Amy, Mina, Raye, Lita and Serena

  • "Blast with the most powerful series!" Uh... Powerful? I didn't realize Sailor Moon could turn into a super pegasus demon hollow cardcaptor saiyan. Truly, I have underestimated Sailor moon's power level. And so has every box of donuts she's ever seen.

  • MOON POWER

  • is it ironic or normal that i as a young (5-8yr old) boy i liked this show and now i am embarrassed to watch it even when no one else is home?

  • Eh, Victoria could've worked, but wouldn't have made sense :/

    Hahaha half the scenes were never aired!! Rofl!!

    Oh Dic, you need to learn XD

  • OIh yeah sure, you "DiC" are all bunch of DiCheads aholes, way to go for ruining a really good show

  • Victoria??? Blue??? Sarah??? Daina??? Carrie???

    LMAO MOST HILARUOUS NAMES XD

    Still i like this trailer :D

  • Comment removed

  • So nineties. So Americanized. So hilarious!

  • @TheLinneaKou yeah think they made this anime in usa. back then, did not know it was a anime

  • @moviefanjilly1 I don't quite understand what you mean. The anime was produced and originally released in Japan, and brought over to the US a few years later. I was commenting on the dated-ness of this promo, if that helps. (And I didn't know what anime was until early 2000, so I feel ya.)

  • Her friend Carey becomes "Sailor Fetus!"

  • "Boys will love the non-stop action!"

    YES THAT IS WHY I WATCHED IT AND NOT FOR PERVERSE REASONS!

  • 1:50 "Her friend Carrie becomes Sailor FETUS!"

  • LOLOLOLOLOLOL I COULDNT STOP LAUGHING!!!!!

  • DANA AS SAILOR MARS! :D

  • wtf lolololololololololololololol

    Sailooooooor Moooooooooooon!!

  • I'd prefer "Serena" over "Usagi" and "Victoria" at anytime.

  • This kind of commercials at least let us know how GOOD (cough...) a dub is going to be.

    DiC you sure are the best!

  • @jaliborc I liked the Dic dub

  • although i hate the dub, i do appreciate it without it there wouldn't be as much fans of it as there it now and it saved us from the oh god so horrible "saban moon"

  • That was really.... *I have no words for that* 0o

    Man, I'm so glad that I grew up with the best dubbing outside Japan! ^^

  • it's terribly campy but in its way it really talks up sailor moon. As it would being what it is but it's cool.

  • LOL! Victoria, Blue, Sarah, Dana, Kerri.....Bahahaha Its kind of cool to see all these different sides of the anime. The stuff that wasnt used, the stuff that WAS but then changed. Thanks for uploading this :D How on earth did you come across this anyways? Did you have it on an old vhs tape?

  • Well, wait to give away the last episode, complete with bad whip/woosh noises.

  • ewww horrid

  • Victoria, Dana, Carey and whatever the hell the others were called.

    God and I though Serena, Lita, Andrew and Darien were stupid changes. Bad dubbing like Sailor Moons is enough to put you off watching it

  • the masked tuxdeo lol

  • Wait a fucking second SMA was actually using the right names Sailor Mercury is really "BLUE"

  • "boys will love the non-stop action!" um... What "non-stop action"? You a-holes keep editing that stuff out!!

  • I heard Sailor Fetus. 0.o

  • If DiC used THESE names as shown in the promo, then I would want the redub to use the Japanese names. The names that DiC used in the anime when it aired were in a way closer to the girls' original names.

  • If Sailor Venus was named Carrie... That'd be hilarious. With that long blonde hair, it just sets itself up for jokes about pig blood.

  • Oh god...the promo voices for the Scouts... *dies*

  • "Boys will love the non stop action"

    Boys will stop watching once they see the color pink. :P

  • wait why did they say that sailor moons real name is victoria? I thought it was serena?

  • @pinkdaisy555 victoria as in victorious  wow i would love see what rini name would have been?

  • victoria blue dayena sarah carrey!? O.o WHAT HAS DIC DONE!?

  • pretty sure the boys liked the transformations too!

  • the names are different, the voices are different, hmm!

  • 1:53 Sailor FETUS!!!! Hahahahaha!!!!!!! XD

  • sailor moon can't hold a flame to Carmen Sandiego!

  • Did anyone else here them say that the main character was Victoria instead of Serena?

  • @Waluigi71 Yep I heard it too. The other scouts had horrid names as well Mercury was Blue. WTF... This was obviously done before they started actually dubbing it. I used to not really like the dub names and kept saying why did they change the names but now after watching this I'm grateful for them :D

  • Am I the only one that thinks, judging from what we got here, the voice acting on this one probably would have been better than or on par with the actual dub? x'D 

  • @teoem9083 This is 99% (no make that 100%) worse than the Dub. The dub voices did sound a bit funny but nothing compared to this. The only bad thing about the English Dub is that it's childish and the voices aren't all that good, but I still like it (but jap is better).

  • lolz this is horrible i would think this would turn people off sailor moon thank god kids have low attention spans

  • Sailor

  • Could be seen as a Pilot for the US.After all Pilot Episodes are never like the actual show.

  • Couldn't stop laughing this was so bad.

  • I'm glad I never saw this promo when I was 5.

  • those names are so american seriously, more ratings than power rangers and ninja turtles

  • I love this, ninja turles, AND power rangers XD

  • Victoria??? Anyone else notice the name change?

  • Victoria, Blue, Sarah, Dana and Carrie. wow :P

  • Why does Mercury sound like she's gargling gravel? And good Lord, the names!

  • O.o.....……….… uh........ Really? What's with the common names for crying out loud!!! Good grief!!!

  • I can't stop laughing at the oh-so-common names they gave the Sailor Scouts in this promo. xD

  • Blue? Seriously... unless it woulda been a nickname.

  • One day wen i wuz in fifth grade i went on dltk kids.com 2 look at pokemon coloring pictures then i decided 4 some strange reason 2 look through every cartoon section n wen i got 2 sailor moon n i saw the sailor scouts i wuz lk I REMEMBER THIS cuz wen i wuz lk 4 the second or third season wuz out and i immiedeatly (or howeva u spel it) went 2 youtube n i saw the star power transformation n i got all happy that i remembered it. i thank God for reminding me of the greatest cartoon eva.

  • @Selenagomes78 I use to love Sailor Moon too

  • Victoria?! eehhhh

  • i miss this. it was the 1st anime show i ever watched!!

  • Did "Carrie" say Sailor Fetus?!

  • @SnowFox211 I almost died from laughing so hard.

  • i love it!

  • It's hilarious that DIC is promoting this show like it would be a phenemenon in America and then they give up on it after dubbing only 65 episodes abandoning the show halfway through season 2 due to low rating in the USA.. And wouldn't finish dubbing the second season until 3 years later after high ratings on Toonami convinced them to do so.

  • .......Wait, Mercury's name was actually Blue? I totally thought SMA just came up with that on their own. .__.

  • @DarkestElemental616 Unfortunately, no. In its original English carnation, the dubbers chose "Blue" for Amy's name. This is the kind of thing that you just can't make up.

  • WOW at litas voice a little too girly for my taste too. god the voices are horrible.

  • wow... so glad i never saw this. i probably would have disliked it.

  • If only they had kept the Victoria name then we could have gotten lines like

    Darien:I can't believe Victoria's secret! She's Sailor Moon

  • @ch2010ize Then SMA would really have a field day.

  • @ch2010ize, lol, that's true, but DiC used Serena instead since it was sort of closer to her original name (because of her alias name, Princess Serenity).

  • Those names for the scouts are brutal hahaaaaaaaa

  • DEAR GOD THIS IS HORRIBLE VICTORIA CARRIE BLUE OH MY GOD

  • NO! NO! NO! It's Serena, Amy, Raye, Lita, and Mina!

  • @Angie2343 nooooooo its  Usagi , Ami , Rei , Mako & Minako. lol

  • SAILOR MOON MIGHT BE BACK ON T.V. IN SEPTEMBER!!!:D

  • @rockerjewell not on tv! the manga will be out in stores september 13! not the anime, just the manga :) also codename: sailor v will be out too<3

  • So glad they didn't name Ami "Blue" -_-'

  • Thank god this never happened. -_-

  • LOL the masked tuxedo

  • @rockerjewell, why feel sorry? If it wasn't for the English version many of us wouldn't have know about Sailor Moon or the japanese version. Learn to embrace all forms of SM and stop being so ignorant.

  • @tuxedomars I agree with u,but really?If I were u,I'd be upset that they changed a great show into something very,very, sad.

  • I feel sorry for people who ACTUALLY likes the english Sailor Moon.....

  • @rockerjewell : I like the english version but why did u say that?

  • @quangduy9x Because English skips parts and ruins the whole show.Plus the voices are sad.

  • @rockerjewell Maybe you're right but English version still has its good :D. Besides, I love Dic music along with original music ^^

  • "The most powerful series in twenty five years!"

    I wouldn't count out he-man, it had the power. The power of grayskull, that is!

  • @Dudinator123 also other shows like transformers g1 g.i. Joe thunder-cats the list goes on

  • It's like I say; the dub could have been worse.

  • We're talking srs MOON POWER!

  • Man, I remember watching this when I was real young, and whenever either of my parents passed the room, I'd immediately change the channel. I thought I looked gay watching some chick superhero show haha

    Was def watchin for dem skirts

    Also Mars is the hottest :P

  • @lonerurouni287 Watching SM doesn't make you look gay. On the other hand, playing doctor with your best friend does.

  • @lonerurouni287 Watching SM doesn't make you look gay. On the other hand, playing doctor with your best friend does.

  • I dunno, I think I like Victoria more than Serena. All of the other names suck, though.

  • lol those are NOT their names.

  • oh.my.god. there is so much wrong with this it actually IS funny

  • Its bad, REALLY bad, still its not as bad as the Saban Moon promo

  • shes not a highschooler shes a 14 year old in eigth grade >:_

  • Is it just me, or does Sailor Jupiter sound like Debi Derryberry?

  • IT'S SO MESSED UP IT HAS TO BE TRUE xD.

  • I don't see it as corporate display? This may have been par for the course with any cartoon being sold into syndication, and you have to understand how much different Sailor Moon was from anything that had ever aired in America and how much of a risky prospect it is. I see nothing wrong with this. They're just telling the networks ( who will have to pay money for this ) what they're getting and letting them know how successful it had been elsewhere.

  • I'm so so glad that they did not end up naming Rei Dana...it just doesn't fit her.

  • 0:33

    Heh, they mistaked Zoicite for Sailor Moon.

  • I know she was Usagi in Japan I was refering to when she was the princess

  • The Mask Tuxedo? Carrie? Victoria? BLUE???? thank god that they changed from those names. I think Serena was better cause Serenity...Serena. Ami...Amy.....Rei...Raye.

  • I think they just made fun of Sailor Moon.

  • Comment removed

  • Why is it that when a series from another country comes to the USA, they want to "Americanize" it? I mean the names they were gonna give them! Victoria, Blue, Carrie? Seriously?????

  • LOL THEY WERE GOING TO CALL HER VICTORIA

  • If you ask me, buying the rights to Sailor Moon was a really REALLY stupid idea on DiC's part.

  • ROFL SERIOUS MOON POWER!!!!! ROFL

  • this is so embarrassing. excuse me, i am going to hide under a rock now. see ya =\

  • those names were so LAME! omggg.... -.-

  • i'm talking serious moon power....

  • my lord, first people on moon with sailor moon..

  • You have no idea, NO IDEA, how relieved I am that DiC decided to change their names at the last minute! I cringe every time I remind myself about their names...and their voices in this commercial haha.

    And really...The Masked Tuxedo...? Aieee.

  • The tape was sent to stations at... UPN-57 (WPSG) Philadelphia, PA UPN-44 (KBHK) San Francisco, CA FOX-2 (KTVU) Oakland, CA WCIU-TV 26 Chicago, IL WB-56 (WLVI) Boston, MA KDFI-TV 27 Dallas, TX WB-20 (WXON) Detroit, MI WTTA 38 Tampa, FL UPN-33 (WBFS) Miami, FL UPN-20 (WTXX) Hartford, CT WB-55 (WBNX) Cleveland, OH UPN-64 (WSTR) Cincinnati, OH FOX-45 (WRGT) Dayton, OH WB-53 (WWHO) Columbus, OH
  • atleast they gave queen berl the rite name...

  • HOLY SHITAKE O.O

  • Wrong. Boys will enjoy the transformation from schoolgirl to superhero...

  • What he meant to say was: Serena, Amy, Lita, Mina, and Rei....0_0

  • @alexandrabarbie1

    This was before they started dubbing SM o.o

  • 73 people can't stand DiC's Macekred version.

  • This is so funny! But it's cool to see the changes.

  • ....I just have this to say about the crap I just saw....WHAT...THE...F@#$. This is why I never watch the dubbed version anymore. America screws ups every anime I can think of....well except for G Gundam, that turned out okay but that's besides the point! I'm so glad the original American names they were gonna give Usagi and and the others were changed. Also I think this video just scarred me for life and turned my brain into pudding. Good day people.

  • I love all the idiots commenting on the names like, "OMG, Iit's Serena not Victoria! You idiot!" LMFAO This was the first promotional video for Sailor Moon in America. The name was not changed to Serena until the dubbing commenced, so had they chose to do so, it could've stayed Victoria (thank God it didn't XD) BUT FOR THE RECORD...Usagi was the best name out there! ENGLISH DUBBING SUCKS!! I know I'm ranting, but it feels good to rant every once in a while. Happy viewing!!!

  • fourth grade UPN before school

  • MY EARS THEY BLEEEEEEEED

  • of course they use footage that was cut or altered in the dub....

    example time! when they show Serena taking the bandage off of Luna's head and the crescent moon is revealed, it doesn't shine. In the first episode of the dub, the same thing happens, but a shine was added to the crescent moon! it's only the first episode and there's inconsistencies already! :P

  • Who ever did this was obviously fired.

  • Victoria??? Blue??? Dana??? Sarah??? Carrie??? The Masked Tuxedo??? WTF???

  • @RavenTerra101 my same exact reaction

  • WTF "the masked tuxideo" ya DUMBSHIT DIC its Tuxiedo Mask!

  • i am so happy they changed the names to wut they are now.....

  • did they call her Victoria???!!

    LOL that wouldnt have suited her at all :3

  • THE MASKED TUXEDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Im sorry to all people who took this seroiusly but but. I LMFAO at this commercial

  • Sailor venus- sailor fetus

  • 0.0?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? OH MY GOD their- their names- the madness. I'll take American madness for 1000 Alex. (Granted Dic did decent for little children but Sailor Moon could've been a bigger hit in america if they would've had no cuts. And yes boys watchedfor the flipping skirts and panty shots)

  • Me: Wow, this sounds great, I can't wait for--

    TV: "…From DiC!"

    Me: SHIT!

  • Comment removed

  • MORE THAN RANGERS AND TURTLES?!? Really...?

  • Boys watch for the skirts, not the action.

  • @raddaluigi I said the same thing itz funny cuz at da timei didnt kno dat y i watched it lol

  • @raddaluigi LOL and the transformations

  • @raddaluigi More like skirts in action.

    ...Yeeah, nah, just skirts.

  • As bad as the DIC dub was, it turned out better than this video.
