The Sailor Moon Cosmos movies look absolutely gorgeous and I'm so excited to finally see my favorite arc of the manga get a faithful adaptation. The Sailor Starlights look amazing and I love their transformations and I'm glad to see the return of the classic Three Lights songs. I wonder if they'll dub the songs for Cosmos like they did the 90s anime dub?

The Starlights are looking great! And what top tier casting! I can only imagine who they'll cast for Galaxia and her forces.

I think Megumi Hayashibara would be great Galaxia.

Mitsuko Horie getting recast will be bittersweet, but I LOVE this idea. Hayashibara was in the 90s anime, but just as Himeko in the S movie. I always thought it was a missed opportunity not having a VA of her caliber play a larger role.

Crossdressers, actually. They're girls who disguise themselves as men while on Earth.

Same, but I think the reason she had such small role in 90s SM was because she was already too big for recurring supporting roles, if that makes any sense.

Or maybe she was just too busy back then.

They were in the 90s anime, one of the things Takeuchi didn't like supposedly. In the manga they just crossdressed which will probably be the case in Cosmos

She said that she was surprised by the change and because the Starlights got a bigger role in the anime than she intended but half of the things fans say she or ikuhara were supposedly mad about have been exaggerated by the fandom.

I hope Takanashi delivers a solid transformation theme for them. He's been hit or miss so far. Like Mars season 1 transformation theme was amazing, but the Outer transformation theme? Not so much. Anime smile + sweatdrop

I thought so too! They definitely seem to have been inspired by their original portrayals.

I could see either of those being the case. And I LOVE the OG cast so I don't mind who we got. It's just surprising she never voiced a Soldier or big bad.
