DVD REVIEW:
This is the fifth volume
of the most popular arc in the Sailor Moon series.
What is so special about
this series? Well, it's not only because we have the introductions
of the new sailor senshi scouts but also near the end of the series,
it becomes SERIOUS. The battles become intense and blows
the previous two series away in terms of what you have seen from
Sailor Moon before. I was lucky to see this when it was out in
Japan and I am happy to see it out in the US for fans in Japanese
with subtitles and um...English dubbed.
The fifth DVD volume
finally gets to the beginning to the awesome Sailor Moon S series
Sailor Saturn Arc. The three Sailor Soldiers (Venus, Uranus and
Pluto) must destroy Hotaru (aka Sailor Saturn) before she awakens
as the Messiah of Silence and brings armageddon to the planet.
But an obstacle stands in there way and that's Sailor Moon and
her fellow Sailor soldiers. Things will start to get serious from
here on in and this is what made the Sailor Moon S series quite
popular among fans.
Anyway, don't expect
great quality for anime since this is an anime TV series not a
movie or OAV. It was really good during it's time years ago and
the paintings are marvelous but it's not sharp because it's a TV
series (lower budget than movies).
So, this is the episode
90-127 storyline arc (episode 115-120). There are 37 episodes
total for the series and a total of 6 episodes on this DVD. So,
one more DVD left in the series!
As for special features,
well there are hardly any. A gallery with hardly anything
and a profile of Sailor Mars.
So if you want to see
the beginning of the serious part of Sailor Moon S, this is the
DVD to start out with. Check it out!
THE SERIES: A
THE DVD EXTRAS: D+
