Sailor Moon was awesomely dubbed,You obviously don't know what good voice acting is.
And this was the ONLY theme song to be translated well to English. It caters to younger audiences. It's suppose to be cheesy and hokey. Go watch your horribly dubbed Funimation animes.
So this isn't perfect, but back in 1994/1995 anime was NOT mainstream. This was many people's first introduction to anime and it is still nostalgic, and much better than that horrid half live action half redone animation bid that is usually mis-labelled as the Saban potential opening. It still gets a thumbs up for Nostalgia.
you know alot of people are hating on the us version but you know what it was my childhood so i love this version. This and pokemon are the only good us version of an anime.
@dreamera1 I know...Sure Moonlight Densetsu is better but like you said, this is the version I grew up with and I love it so I do not mind whether or not the English Dub is shit to other people but this is the version I grew up with :)
god, i remember getting up at god knows what time usually before 5 o clock and not going backj to sleep just to watch this... amazing show, still rewatching the whole series in japanese, brilliamt
i wish this show was back on air so my cousins can watch it. all they wanna watch are things about girls finding guys ,country,and nickalodeon. and if it were to be on itd have to be when people can ACTUALLY watch it! i would watch pokemon but it only comes on early in the morning and during school! how are fans supposed to watch it? im just lucky to have a DVR to record the new episodes.
ahh i remember when i was little i ALWAYS watched it i even had the movies "Promise of the Rose" and "Hearts in Ice" Oh jeasus i love it love it love it :D
Also if you watch the original version "japanese version" it really shows how they messed it up in the US version but it's all good!
i LOVE this song! sailor moon was my first anime!! my friends and i all loved it!!! thanks for putting it on!!! if anyone wants to see the series on Youtube, i'm watching a good version (in English) on SassySunbeam's channel....
Me 2! i never knew what anime was until i started watching sailor moon when i was little. then i got into fushigi yugi, and tenchi in tokyo.they are my fav anime :)
They really destroyed the opening. I prefer japanese subbed versions or spanish version. In latin america translation was made directly from japanese languaje. Now I know why Sailor Moon isn't that popular in the US.
In addition, the dialogue in the English-dubbed Sailor Moon was recorded in Toronto (Ontario, Canada). Therefore, it is not the US Sailor Opening, it is the Canadian Sailor Opening.
It happens to be a fact that many of the english dubbings of anime are done in studios in Toronto and Vancouver. The fact remains however that these are English region dubs, and by marketing terminology, are often called "US" versions, as the States are often the primary market for these things (highest population, major influence, etc.)
Its like video games: they should be called properly NTSC U/C rather than US versions, since its all the same.
Why would it be the "American" Version when all the actor talents and etc was produced and recorded and first aired on YTV, a Canadian television station and was the first to air it?
look:
The English adaptation of Sailor Moon hit the airwaves on August 28, 1995, with the show airing on YTV in Canada, and entered syndication in the United States two weeks later.
Airings are to most degrees irrelevant: the show was produced for English speaking regions by an international company: Marketing strategies for different regions often differ: YTV aired it first in canada? Ok, great for them! The marketing strategy for the states was to keep licensing costs down by Syndication, which can take some time. Just because a version airs somwhere first does NOT make it that nations "own" thing.
Also, I think you forget you live on a continent called "North America"
i don't care what anyone says, the north American version is better than the Japanese version. Not just the opening even, Japanese voice actor girls are god awful annoying to listen .
I love this series why did Naoko let the license expire just promote the crappy live action version of this show. I wish it was still being sold. If anyone has an english dub they don't want anymore don't trash it give it to me pretty please.
Yea, I mean, most american cartoons (That invole Super heroes etc) usally say all the heroes names like Power Puff Girls and the Sailor Moon dub. Because DiC Went about and put Venus and Juipter into the song, gave away most of the plot. (Because Kids would be able to see that in episode 1 that Sailor V on the poster is Sailor Venus
