For someone how is bad mouthing sailormoon so bad u surely wasted your time writing a review first of all dont go makeing assumptions for other people but yourself i have showed many people pretty guardian sailormoon and not one bad comment they loved it, 7 of them not being sailormoon fans came back dieing to see the next episodes
Sailormoon being the top biggest and most popular anime ever will never die as you can see with other shows like dragonball Z and so on how powerful it can be due to its cult like following it will never, as far as the acting its great 90% not even being about the acting but how much they look like their anime counter parts sailormoon has more websites than any other anime out there and still increaseing as for the live action websites have been created within weeks of of the show airing and also increasing, plus that comment about them fighting with a plastic bandai toy first of all 14 of my SM friend own that same wand and it looks nothing like the toy the shows version is a special made prop just like the power rangers weopons so shut the fudge up on that on, finally just becase a show ist airing anymore doesnt mean its falling out of the world loop tons of people are dieing for it to be shown again even with its horrible dub and bad voice actors me on the other hand also want it to be show again even though i own every singal dvd as well as 15 other anime completed and wacthing to episodes wont detrimine if you like it or not and so far your the only a$$hole on the internet whos said so! :evil:

x_X Oi, that's horrible. I'm ashamed to be a Sailormoon fan. I at least tried pointing out to a large fangirl community that you were a fan of the show, and that it wasn't a negative review.

Niceee =P

Yes. It is the longest run-on sentence I've seen in quite a while. It was a kick to my brain for a little bit. ^^;

The series, is alright I guess. I wish there were better people defending it though. =P

But that's some funny stuff. ^^;

Ummm.... yeah. A note to Ryuuzaki2000. Try to compose yourself and learn to read. You aren't doing the fans of the show any good whatsoever. From what I could tell, Miagi was simply pointing out the problems of the show along with the good. If you couldn't tell that, perhaps a class on reading comprehension may be in order. Why don't you take that along with some English classes in order to work on your puctuation and sentence structure while you are at it?

I've always wanted to answer a letter like this in a venue where I didn't have to be 100% professional, so here goes Smile

I who speak as an expert on Japan, the anime industry, and tastes past and present

and so on how powerful it can be due to its cult like following it will never, as far as the acting its great 90% not even being about the acting but how much they look like their anime counter parts sailormoon has more websites than any other anime out there and still increaseing as for the live action websites have been created within weeks of of the show airing and also increasing,


And that never happens for any other show, no matter how crappy. I give you the "Save Enterprise" campaign.

Quote:
plus that comment about them fighting with a plastic bandai toy first of all 14 of my SM friend own that same wand and it looks nothing like the toy the shows version is a special made prop just like the power rangers weopons so shut the fudge up on that on,


It was crappy. Deal with it. There are US amature cosplayers who have made better outfits than the ones in the show. Do we need to get into the puppets?

Quote:
finally just becase a show ist airing anymore doesnt mean its falling out of the world loop tons of people are dieing for it to be shown again even with its horrible dub and bad voice actors me on the other hand also want it to be show again even though i own every singal dvd as well as 15 other anime completed and wacthing to episodes wont detrimine if you like it or not and so far your the only a$$hole on the internet whos said so! Evil or Very Mad


Well, if you have all the episodes on DVD, just watch those and don't worry about it being shown on TV cut and dubbed. I watched it, and it blew. It was worse than animated Sailor Moon due to poor acting, cheaper than cheap FX and the horrible puppets and costumes, coupled with the general crumminess of Sailor Moon.

THIS IS A SHOW MADE FOR _6_ YEAR OLD GIRLS. DEAL WITH THE FACT THAT YOU LIKE IT AND KEEP IT THE SECRET SHAME THAT MOST DO

Thus proving you know absolutely nothing about Japan. The show is on at 7:30 in the morning. This means it's something kids watch before school. Top 5 girl shows? Top 5 in its time slot? If this person thinks that it's in the top 5 of the week, well, they do think it's well made and acted so I guess they'll believe pretty much anything

I'm STILL confused why people think you gave it such a horrible review. I mean, I love the show...and I think you were completely fair.

It's things that like that letter that remind me that I'm not a fangirl Anime smile

Because some of the fangirls out there with a 12 year old and under brain capacity can't comprehend what a good review is, and what professionally bashing a show is. Maybe Miagi used too many big words. I don't know. All I know is they're embarassing my fandom.

I can say that I've seen almost all of Sailor Moon at some point or another.

And I too, was a Sailor Moon fan,..............when I was 12.

I'm a Sailor Moon fan, and while I didn't find the review great, I didn't find it awful either. It certainly didn't warrent such an attack like that. Sad
