It's Usagi's birthday.
You should play her games today.

How old is she now, 48?

>>714076950
Yeah.
But there again, you have seen Usagi at 1000+ years in the future and she hardly looks any different.

Which one tho

>>714077671
The SNES RPG Another Story is probably the most solid, has some cool mechanics but very questionable damage scaling.
Buy a Manicure or enjoy 50 turns of Mercury VS Nabu in early game, where you will probably die first because you run out of items anyway

/v/ is too young for the mother of all magical girls.

>>714079753
>mother of all magical girls
holy newfag

>>714082046
Nah it's right as far as calling Sailor Moon the one who made the genre a thing.

>>714076950
She's 16 damn it, 16 forever

The Super Famicom beat em up ain't bad. Play as Jupiter, she has a powerbomb.

I think the JRPG on the same system is good too. Has some weird difficulty spikes.

>>714082471
I just beat the JRPG myself.
People memed about the difficulty a lot but Mercury and/or Pluto make the whole thing completely braindead. So much that you can even drop formations at the final boss, her strongest attack is still not gonna kill anyone after a Shabon Spray.

Which translation of Another story should I play?

It's Usagi's birthday, not opposite day.

One of the best soundtracks in a licensed-based game.

Best girl

>>714083496
The battle themes were all pretty gud

>>714083693
Only that one has the oomph of the anime, with the Opposito Senshi battle theme coming in second.

>>714083632
Agreed.

>>714083891
I think it's supposed to sound similar to Youma Attack.

>>714084214
I know.
I forgot the image in my first post.

Was she the dumbest sailor?

>>714076730 (OP)
Is usagi actually a good character? She seems like she is just a retard.

>>714084508
>Is usagi actually a good character?
yes
>She seems like she is just a retard.
yes

>>714084495
Yes. Minako is close enough but she is better at pretending she isn't literally another Usagi, I guess.

>>714084508
Yes and also Yes. She is the cutest retard.

>>714084508
She's a genuine retard, but she has a big heart and doesn't judge others. She's a fatty too, but the anime seldom shows it.

>>714084495
I really liked it in the later seasons when they gave up on trying to differentiate usagi and minako and just accepted that they're two halves of a brain cell

>>714084508
She fine, imo. Usually she is a retard but when shit hit the fan, she cares for her loved ones and actually become competence (despite her reluctant to being a heroine)

>>714084969
>USAgi
>chubby
wha?

>>714085021
>Usually is a retard but when shit hit the fan, she cares for her loved ones and actually become competence (despite her reluctant to being a heroine)
Isn't that the case for all jap protags

Getting groomed by Mamoru ruined Usagi's chances at a normal life

>>714085106
Usagi is especially retarded even for jap protag standards.
Half of the anime's appeal is watching how much of a fuck up she is yet failing upwards. At least when it comes to the magical girl side of the plot.

>>714085106
No, some just stay one dimensional or doesn't have any flaws.

I played the arcade beat-em-up, the visuals were quite good.

>>714084969
I thought Usagi was the leader.

>>714084969
>Chubby
She's thick?

>>714076730 (OP)
I love Usagi!

>>714085520
Yeah, I think it's a pre-release sketch.
Minako was supposed to be more relevant at some point or technically is original sailor heroine.

>>714085520
Venus was the leader by seniority (Sailor V).
Endymion is also the actual ruler of Crystal Tokyo. I wasn't joking about her being a retard.

>>714085520
Venus is the leader in the manga

unfortunately it is not as good as cardcaptor sakura

>>714085868
t. lolicon (or PEDOFILE as I like to call them!!)

>>714085868
They do very different things in the first place.
But that said, Sailor Moon stays pretty strong for 2 seasons, the third starts showing the first signs of dragging it out for too long, and finally SuperS makes it evident.

This is like The X-Files with its monster of the week formula only it's this one thing repeated over and over and only the last episodes matter, right?

>>714086445
Honestly not really.
A lot of plot relevant or at least character relevant stuff happens in-between MOTW episodes, although it's true that the last batch is where you get uninterrupted plot overdrive.

This show really wants me to believe people wouldn't throw themselves at Mako and Minako the second they stepped outside of their house.

>>714087554
For Mako I remember she says the other students are genuinely afraid of her.
Absolutely no excuse for Minako though, she's a cutie and very approachable.

>>714086445
people that hate the monster of the week formula really don't understand these kinds of shows and think they're watching an action show with a slice of lice aspect rather than a slice of life show with an action aspect. nevermind the shows that actually use the MOTW sections to reinforce their plots rather than just filling an action quota a really good example of this that's about as subtle as a brick to the face with it is heartcatch precure

>>714089527
I really wish the action was better though.
Sailor Moon shows that it can do cool fights when they actually try, but that will be like 2 per season, 3 if you are lucky. The final boss is also consistently the least action-y for some reason.

>>714076730 (OP)
Man we need a new Sailor Moon game though...

>>714076730 (OP)
I fucking want a SRW game with non mecha anime, imagine shit like Sailor Moon fighting together with Goku, saving characters from their canon deathas or complete fanservice bullshit like the MC from kimetsu no yaiba managing to beat the tulpa of the big bad in his head without the other girl putting the demon antidote which mean he gets to keep the insane demon power which he says they need for "something much worse than Muzan (the OG final boss)"

>>714093520
it's a Crystal movie, so if you like Crystal you might like it

>>714096069
I never watched Crystal, but isn't that just a reboot with more manga stuff?

Don't die

>>714076730 (OP)
Sailor moon has the most soulful arystyle of all time

>>714099040
Usagi has seen some shit

>>714096127
basically, yeah
I don't like throwing around the term SOVL, but while it's not SOVLLESS it is lacking something compared to the 90s anime
it's too clean, I guess

Yeah don't watch this anime. It baits you with cute and whimsical magical girls fighting evil doers and the switches to pure despair and everyone fucking dies in brutal ways. I just wanted female power rangers for my daughter to watch on her iPad. Instead I got Proto Madoka.

>>714082318
Minky Momo is the first I think

Maybe someday I'll watch the original

>>714099783

Well they took inspiration from somewhere after all.
But nah, Sailor Moon isn't some misery porn shit. That stuff in the first season was kino as fuck.

>>714085327
But he didn't do anything?

For me, it's Jamanen.

>>714105619
why would you want to skip the best season?

>>714106284
My man, I sure hope you mean it because it pulls a 360 and becomes absolute ludokino halfway through. Because the first half was genuinely miserable.

>>714107140
The episode after this one is ludokino though.
Minako is a fucking WHORE and unironically deserved to be attacked

>>714104240
Do they ever explain why two Japanese teenagers have blonde hair despite not being gyarus?

>>714109690
They are the reincarnation of moon people.

>>714107140
I'm afraid we'll have to amputate the arm.

>>714109690
I mean, Mercury has blue hair so I think we can throw hair color genetics out the window.

>>714109934
>>714111439
Did anyone in the show ever think it was weird that these girls have weirdly colored hair (like maybe a teacher told Mercury to stop dying it) or is it just ignored because of anime logic?

>>714112075
Just ignored because it's anime.

>>714103050
Shoutenings ebug mene :---D

>>714112075
I don't think so, as far as I remember it's ignored like in any other anime. Granted it's been ages since I saw the first two seasons so they may have made a half comment on it in an episode.

Is there a sexier Magical Girl costume than the Sailor Scout?

>everyone talking about Sailor Moon slop
>no one recognizing an actual good character from a good show when it's HER birthday
fake anime fans

>>714112649
You will never be Sailor Moon.

>>714112393
Does this count?

>>714112268
There is, Usagi asks her what kind of dye she uses to get her hair that color, and Ami just looks at her weird and tells her she doesn't dye it, and her hair has always been that color. This coming from the Japanese girl with naturally blonde hair and blue eyes, though I suppose that gets a pass because she would just assume she's got white people DNA from a distant ancestor.

>>714112649
don't shitpost about her here I have to deal with enough schizo shitposting about it on /a/
I wasn't around those threads while TR was airing I have zero idea why the worst posters latched onto that season so hard, it's a shame it's a good season too

>>714112978
Maybe if you showed Sakuras normal magical girl costume

>>714084163
Talent

>>714084849
Minako is good at pretending she's still like Usagi.

She's not actually ok.

>>714113271
Is it this one? I never watched the show I just think she's cute and the animation is really good.

>>714113547
>FillerCaptor Suckura
Yawn.

>>714113547
yeh

>>714099175
She saw all her friends die.

A lesser hero would have broke.

>>714113601
Not that SM is any better at that.
The important part is how entertaining the filler is.

>>714113601
Is it boring? That one scene where she rollerblades to school is kino and made me add it to my watchlist.
>>714113618
I also have this. The magician's assistant one showing her thighs is pretty sexy.

>>714076730 (OP)
i share her birthday , Usagi is pretty cool huh

>>714113882
Isn't this show super gay?

>>714113671
Ussgi be like that. She acts like a crybaby but she is just being honest about how she feels, doesn't mean it's ever enough to break her.

One human penis required.

>>714095808
it's been 25 years for me anon refresh my memory, was that the section where you play as a single scout and get your shit kicked in alot?

>>714114335
From what I've heard there are some yuri undertones, yeah

>>714114847
Nah it's the north pole in chapter 4.
It has encounters who will spam Whirlwind Cut/Tempest in the same turn and their stats are a noticeable step up compared to any random enemy you fought so far.

>>714114934
That isn't even yuri, it's just females being females.
At least post an actual example of one of these magic grill shows all but explicitly doing this.

>>714115034
gotcha, it has been so long i barely remember a thing, i just remember a section where you play as one scout that was icy themed and i recall it being pretty annoying to work through.

>>714115341
That one was Mercury chapter 2 yea, also an infamous spot but it's mostly because of the boss fight

>>714114335
>>714114934
Nah, it's Clamp so there's no yuri there, the thing with Tomoyo never goes anywhere and she even admits that she's fine with getting cucked by Syaoran

>>714111439
>>714112075
>>714112146
How did the color hair in anime thing even start?

>>714129013
to differentiate anime sameface

>>714129013
Blue and purple highlights are easy ways to make black hair look dynamic without going into crazy detail. From there you can just make the whole head blue. It's the same reason why Batman is sometimes blue

>>714129013
I'll also add on to what others have said: repressed emotions.
A japanese person can only have brown or black colored hair. Japanese society, to put it bluntly, is pretty restrictive.
Changing hair color is one of the easiest and visually most effective ways to break out of monotonicity. A person with a different hair or eye color is visually distinct from the japanese crowd, which can serve many purposes for an animation, including literal and metaphorical rebellious characters.

>>714125543
Nigga are you still on this? I remember an anon bringing up Satoshi way back when someone used a Japanese name and it was the same argument at that.

Get over it, Usagi, Satoshi and Kasumi are the canon names.

What is it with BPD bitches and Sailor Moon anyways?

>>714133525
You're going to have to elaborate on that a bit before I try to take a crack at it.

>>714133683
There's a meme pointing out that grown women into Hello Kitty have BPD
I just happened to notice that some of the Japanese women that make Sailor Moon art on X the Everything App also happen to be menhera or at least exhibit similar traits

>>714132792
nope its Serena, Ash and Misty
its also Kiev, Turkey and Bombay
fight me

>>714133273
give me some baby love

>>714133961
Because it has the same sort of Pink and Cheerful aesthetic that Hello Kitty does, while also handling subjects like death, loneliness, longing, and pain.
Also it's another show that they grew up watching, and there's something psychologically, empowering I guess? about reclaiming and reincorporating something structural to your childhood, as an adult.

There's definitely reason behind it, but as a guy that's just read some Jung, I'm way unqualified to write that essay. I'm just surprised less attach themselves to Goth Princess Hotaru.

>>714099873
Sally the Witch from 1968.

>>714125820
the difference is, only five people watched the dub of FwPC. Every single major country on earth got a dub of Sailor Moon, with roughly half of them giving the protag a name that was some variation of Serena.

>>714133961
That seems to be magical girl fans in general.

>>714129013
to look more European, originally. a lot of early anime (70s) features explicitly European characters in European settings, like Rose of Versailles. This built an expectation of anime characters having fair hair. as the 80s rolled along you had punks and later new wave music groups dyeing their hair in wild colours in the west so to keep up with culture anime started doing the same thing. 'anime hair' is mostly just 80s hair fashion.

When I got around to watching SuperS, I was bracing myself for this horrible thing to be endured. I ended up binging a dozen episodes in a row instead because it managed to be the one season that's actually good as a straight MOTW/SoL show with minimal plot by having consistently entertaining episode to episode scenarios that are actually pulled off well and have solid writing that manages to be genuinely funny.

The hate it gets is massively overblown and the whole thing feels like a well earned summer vacation where you really get to know the characters.

>>714133273
I hate Chibiusa so goddamn much.
Genuinely what's the point of keeping her after R?

Surprised at the lack of magicial girl games. You'd think there would be more of them.

>>714145106
Sex.

>>714145085
That's one nice way to call it worthless. Some of the SOL stuff and sometimes battles are funny, but all the previous seasons did both humour and serious character development together, for now I believe the first half is absolutely the worst out there and there's hardly any sign of getting better in the second half.
Oh, the senshis are getting a powerup? As if I don't know they are going to be mostly useless anyways. I'd be surprised if that manages to be relevant.

>>714076950
Realistically at this point, the Moon Kingdom would probably make themselves known to the World. And would take over leading to Neo Crystal Tokyo.

>>714145106
To reach a younger audience. She was a huge draw after R and giving her a chance to fight made her popular. She didn't tank the ratings, quite the opposite. NOT having her in Sailor Stars actually tanked the ratings if anything else.

>>714145896
>NOT having her in Sailor Stars
Thank God. Now I have more reasons to speedrun SuperShitty.
Anyway, I thought the younger audience also disliked her.

No thanks.

>>714145085
the issue is it comes off the back of the most serious and plot-heavy season, which raided the bar for what people expected to happen next. Not only that, it wrote out all the outer scouts. Imagine if after the Namek saga, you got 40 episodes of Gohan goofing off on episodic adventures helping villages solve their mundane problems.

>>714144375
I have a hobby of watching obscure dubs, so I watched this recently. I enjoyed it, way better than Glitter Force. basically uncensored, only real changes were character names and they never explicitly reference the fact the show is set in Japan.

>>714146498
>you got 40 episodes of Gohan goofing off on episodic adventures helping villages solve their mundane problems.
That was literally the beginning of the Buu arc, and it was great.

>>714146623
it was all of about seven chapters, not an entire season.

>>714146498
Funnily enough, I thought S was also on the weaker side but at least the outers work as a plot hook.
Original and R did a much better job at virtually everything, much better balance of humour, serious stuff, "filler" episodes that actually contribute to character development and so on.

>>714146428
Has there ever been any good licensed game in the history of licensed games?

I’m not even talking about “good for licensed standards” I mean actually good for regular vidya standards.

>>714147759

>>714148065

>>714105619
Don't skip anything, the only season that is kind of off is 5 and early episodes in 2.

R set the bar too high for a sequel.

There's just no way S, SuperS and Stars could possibly surpass this.
But S did try by challenging Usagi's idealism.

R is only good for the villains and some of the fight scenes. That Breakup Arc is tragic and Chibiusa is annoying as all get out, even the way she turns into Black Lady is retarded when you compare it to the manga.

There’s a severe lack of Inner spotlight episodes compared to every other season as well.

I have no comparison with the manga but good to know that R was even better, since the show version is already the strongest thing after the OG.
I remember quite a few cool character spotlight episodes actually, could have used a little more but to be fair it is a busy season but many subplots already.

Unironically two things.
1: It's too expensive
2: Modern animators literally don't know how anymore. It died when they moved to all digital.

maybe you're just watching the wrong shows idk

NTA but if use freecam and look at the manga Hondo's reading in between rounds, it's a couple of Sailor Moon panels. they thought no one would notice but they were wrong.

I bet my ass a Sailor moon episode cost 1/5th of a modern show’s

Also to add, the Usagi v Chibiusa stuff is not just silly SOL stuff or the latter being an annoying brat, there's an ongoing conflict between the two because of the Silver Crystal. Chibiusa wasn't right either but she does have a reason to antagonize her.
The issue with the little shit is how this continues AFTER R, where Usagi already helped her with the Crystal Tokyo plot and directly dealt with the Black Lady stuff too, basically soothing her own issues. S is where she becomes an unlikeable character because she acts pretty much the same, coming across as ungrateful and petty.

It's too expensive because of the man power needed to hand draw and color everything on cells. As well as teaching the staff of how to do that as it's a lost art form.
It's why everything is digital, even digipaint is dead, because no one in the industry knows how to do it the old style anymore.

As well as the fact that people can't get over watching a show if it looks old, so everything has to be HD and hi res.

Uh, yes actually. Ever since S with few exceptions really.
Although to be fair, Minako is consistently useful because LoveMe Chain is just a very versatile tool, and Mercury proved herself situationally helpful as well. The problem were mostly Rei and Makoto being attackers who cannot do any fucking damage to anything.

Cute dumbass who sucks at most things but also genuinely is a very good person. In other words, the ideal female protag who doesn't need to pretend women are appreciated for being competent at anything, she couldn't even win most fights on her own.

Retard. They are the only ones who manage to take out enemies on their own without Moon intervening.

Venus is the leader. The og team is the Princess Serenity and the Four Senshi of the Guardian Deities, her bodyguards. Venus is the leader of the bodyguards. After the og kingdom is wiped out, the princess is reborn but this time she gets to be a Sailor Senshi herself. In present day, Usagi/Sailor Moon is still their monarch and has the final say, but Venus leads the Guardian Deities and Uranus leads the Outer System Senshi (later, Saturn leads the Outer System Senshi).

Pic related is Dream Arc (4th of 5 arcs). Venus is still referred to as the titular leader.

The villians in R are based. They are always trying to out cuck each other.

In OG and R. Ever since S they haven't been able to do much, they even show the planet attack failing.
These two had it worse imo because their skills generally have no interaction outside of just doing damage(although they can still repel some weaker attacks or destroy restraints), and the enemies eventually become strong enough to shrug it off. On the other hand, Minako finds a lot of ways to take advantage of the chain outside of direct damage, while Ami is a support first and foremost.

>pre-release sketch.
In the pre-release sketch, Jupiter (King of the Gods) was meant to be the leader. Her original name back then was also going to Mamoru.
