>Nice to meet you, my name is Princess Takeuchi Naoko. I wrote this manga approximately ten years ago. It's so embarrasing that I want to bun it and scatter its ashes into outer space. (It's like I am 14 years old and in middle school again! What the hell is this shit?!) Even thought it's this bad. it stll got published and later made into books, so it's a good example of how you can do anything if you try hard enough. (Fufu! That's right, even though I tried to put my hardest into it, it still doesn't change the fact that I suck and probably always will.) So I can say with full confidence to those who dream of becoming a mangaka: even if you suck, it's okay! Just try your hardest and please don't give up! (Even if it's bent, smudged, done in a felt pen, done in ten seconds per panel, or done with no rough draft, just be sure to make those deadlines. Anything is okay. Even if it sucks, it might become an anime someday!)

The actual page.
>>142809249
That's cute.
32 episodes into first season. It started slow. Half of episodes from Jadeite's and Nephrite's arcs were filler in the worst sense: they didn't move plot along, didn't add anything to charaters and weren't even interesting, but since mid-Nephrite it actually became awesome.

Shame that the BGM fucking sucks. I miss the Outers' violins.
Are these powerlevels accurate?
S1 Moon < Mercury < Mars < Jupiter < Venus < S2 Moon < Neptune < Uranus < Pluto < Saturn < Super Sailor Moon
Is Ikuhara gay? He upped the gayness in Sailor Moon adaptation, he made Utena, and then there is that incident when he took bath with Anno and that was adapted into Kaworu/Shinji bath scene.
New Crystal episode airing in 10 minutes.

>>142814984

Episode ends at this scene.
The past 3 eps or so have been a real mixed bag animation/art wise.
Thankfully the preview for the next ep looks nice?
HS seemingly going to be late despite CR is on time today. I wonder what happened.
>>142815946

Can't tell if it's intentional, but does Mistress 9 have an animation error going on with her ears?

>The two of us ended up talking the whole night. Even after everyone else had collapsed we went on and on, drinking sake and talking, sitting side by side in an open air bath and talking.
>So, I think the conversation we had that night had perhaps the same flavor as the exchange between Kaworu and Shinji. I also felt this way when I saw episode 24 for myself. Well, the situation with the bath was the same; that’s easy enough to understand.
I loved how Mistress 9 looked in this episode, she was creepy as hell.

Next week, along with what seems better animation from what I could see on the preview.

Takeuchi should rub it in by making Chibiusa's weapon into a bow.

To be fair she does get reborn and gets the same age as Chibiusa.
>>142820008
Please tell me that Takeuchi confirm HotaruxChibiusa as canon.

If you mean the manga, not really. She's an alien parasite.

Yeah, she was naked for the entirety of today's episode in the manga.
I liked the dress though.

She really puts the "ayy" in "ayy lmao."

>when u overdose on the weed
I just wanted to let you all know as a bit of trivia that Aoi Yuuki is always there watching Sailor Moon every Monday at 11:00 PM, like clockwork. She always writes some small comments after the new episode is done airing.
She is a longtime fan of both the show and Neptune/Uranus, so naturally she is hooked on the new Death Busters adaptation. She fangirls Haruka really hard.
>>142824654
>straight into Venus' eye
>>142824872
One of my favourite seiyuus actually, as expected
>Jesus, stop looking at my tits.
>>142825173
Usagi looks older in some scenes and then pretty young in others. I wonder why. I can't wait to see the BD modifications.
>>142824872
>Aoi Yuuki is a longtime fan of Uranus
>>142825252
That's just mean she was drawn by different animators in those shots. BD upgrades wouldn't change that, assuming they do polished the show even further for BD.
>>142824872
Post them here.
>>142825717
There are some things that need polish and if S1 and S2 of Crystal got them I don't see why this Season won't and even better than them.
>>142825841
The difference is S1 Crystal is an abomination, S3 actually looks good and acceptable most of the time. Unless it looks really bad, i don't think they would be bothered to polish it even further.
>>142825947
Yes, I agree. S1 and S2 managed to fuck up the close ups, something that S3 doesn't. It might be possible that they won't polish much, but there are some awkward stuff that they should and I hope they do.
Ex. pic related and some Chibi-Usa flying animation in this episode.
>>142826054
Yeah definitely. The animators really didn't do justice for this episode. I think this episode would definitely receive so upgrades for BD. It would be great if they don't just polished it but also add more movements.
FUCK
They sure know how to keep me waiting... It was worth it though, they did most of the scenes justice and Hotaru's drama is paced well.
>>142825947
>S1 Crystal is an abomination, S3 actually looks good and acceptable
S1 did god job with light/shadows, almost KyoAni-tier. I'm not seein that in current arc.
>>142826483
Let's just say the bad far outweighs the good in S1.
I don't watch many KyoAni show so I don't really know what you're talking about, but if you want to talk about light/shadow lets use creator name instead of studio name. For example, this episode storyboard reminds me of Rie Matsumoto's style.
>>142826483
>S1
>doing a good job with anything
>>142825173
Usagi was cute there for weird reasons
>>142822915
At least wasn't derpy as some Higurashi moments
>>142827342
Which weird reasons were those?
>>142827856
Do you guys really consider Mistress 9 derpy? I thought she was awesome, quite creepy.
>>142826704
The guy who storyboarded and directed this episode apparently influenced Rie Matsumoto's style.
>>142828288
Reactions more mature than the 90's
>>142819580
Pgsm was ridiculous in so many ways, but Mamoru was a hottie.
>>142823303
The wait will be painful, i expected to see this today
>>142823303
I swear to fuck, if this isn't a full transformation scene I will flip
I've waited 20+ years for her to get a transformation
>>142832093
it should be, it's the climax of the season
>>142832093
MOTHERFUCKING THIS
>>142825759
Mmm, sorting and translating Aoi's reaction for each episode.
They are not very long so I guess it's doable. I will put that idea in my backlog.
Baby Hotaru soon?
The best part of this season

>>142832093
If there isn't one next week, then next season is guaranteed. Saturn didn't really have a henshin this arc in the manga
>>142834482
They should've had Fukuen Misato singing a cover of Rashiku Ikimasho, now that was the best Chibi Usa ending.
https://youtu.be/XC-qqEhTy4Y
Some bits of really cheap animation today.
>>142822285
Fucking DIED at this point though.
What's up with the weird face angles in this particular episode? It's like they were trying something but it just didn't work so well.
>>142819559
Even Mamo-chan's transformation was bad, I wanted some sexy male nudity for a change.No, Haruka doesn't count!
>>142819499
Daddy approve this.
>>142822285
>>142824559Would you?

You know it to be true.
What is the likelihood we'll get a season 4?

>>142843757
Fuck, I'll be dead by then.
I don't mind that they saved this week's budget to pump up the animation next week (if that's what they did) but holy crap it was really noticeable.At least the story was dramatic enough to carry the whole thing this time.
>>142843988
Thanks to Hotaru.
>>142843886
Won't be that painful as the delays of the first season years ago
>>142845111
The first season also had some kind of every two weeks nonsense too. At least with this season, we get an episode a week like we should.
>>142845228
I've never understood why every two weeks, the quality of the show never reflected that
>>142841543
Usagi looks hot to be honest
>>142842172
>>142847187
It's because they were literally shitting out episodes merely a week or two before they aired, there was no room for quality control.
With S3, they had more than half the season done before it aired. Though I will say the second half of this season hasn't been as nicely animated as the first half was. Luckily, it looks like they're saving budget for next episode. They can easily go back and pretty up some episodes before the blurays come out.
>>142847670
Even with all the delays? if i remember well the new anime was announced on 2012, that's fucked up
>>142819499
i don't remember the 90's being this yuri with these two
>>142828405
Just the eyes
>>142841543
hngg Usagi is too perfect
>>142833549
Raw data is also acceptable. In fact, just post the moon. I wanna know Aoi writing style.
>>142845734
The show reflected their abomination of a schedule perfectly fine. Two weeks one episode thing is last resort to salvage the show. Evidently they still failed to save anything.
>>142850776
I guess they simply they didn't give a fuck
U S A G I
>>142849403
it wasn't. She had the hots for her dad and Pegasus
>>142849403
Their relationship in the manga/crystal was much more overtly yuri than the 90's anime.

Her version of the 90's is gorgeous to me, the Crystal version is a little inferior
>>142863963
I think the 90s version has the upperhand because the traditional 90's anime style makes it look much more threatening, and creepy.
I hate being the person that shills the 90's version, especially since some of the episodes in that series looked shitty too, but I think the non digital usage really helped with the charm of the older series.

She is literally me. This is me. I love that unbelievable rush at the end where you're in a frantic panic and skip meals and sleep, and then reward yourself like a binge and purge with weeks of laziness after.
Sailor moon had such terrible art most of the time, and horrible sameface too. Still so nostalgic.

When i knew about the original manga version was a big letdown for me, even the 90's anime has their flaws but improved a lot, i've got mixed sensations
>>142902189
the manga (and Crystal) is too short for good characterization, that's why the 90s anime is best

Why? A cheapo media computer won't set you back more than a few hundred, add in a 4-5TB external usb drive (100-120ish?) and you can store months of continuous video on it. Just encode your vhs tapes if you like their contents so much, they literally are losing data just sitting there absorbing ambient radiation.
