DiC's dubbing (I.E: Origin of "Sailor Scouts") = First 2 Seasons only.
Throughout the series when they go against their main villain they rarely do so without trying to gather information (in other words, scouting) and form a plan.
@k0reangirlX They search for their princess, they search for the Silver Crystal, they gather intel on their enemies before charging into battle when possible. Scouts is a perfectly appropriate term.
The reason why I am against "scout" is because they don't go ahead and look for spying purposes (and etc.), they actually go in and just fight, which makes them Sailor Soldiers.
@k0reangirlX So your argument is that since the Girl Scouts' inception no female identify herself as a "scout" other than in reference to Girl Scouts? Odd viewpoint.
Yes, the word did exist before Girl Scouts, but Sailor Moon existed after it. And I also do realize that in the Japanese original, the soldiers' names were combined as one word, but since the original title is actually Bishoujo Senshi Sera Mun, not Bishoujo Senshi Seramun, I'd rather go with Sailor Moon. Plus, in most translations of the manga and anime, and the new reprint of the manga, their names are said as two separate words.
@k0reangirlX thank you, I hate the term scout for the senshi, they don't go around dilvering cookies.

@k0reangirlX Uhh the original Japanese name is not "Bishoujo Senshi Sera Mun" Its "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon" where did you get Sera Mun from?

1st Season =/= Whole Series
Or, 1st Story arc =/= Whole Manga
