Sailor Moon Crystal (2014–2021)
1/10
Modern Anime Ruins what was once Great- Again
26 May 2020
This new "Modern" Sailor Moon rips off its ancestor, tears apart relationships and lacks emotion. The new Voice Actors are boring and not as Iconic as the olds one (Granted they do a Normal Job) The Animation is Lackluster and is quickly changed after complaints. Spoiler: It's still ugly.

The show doesn't explore relationships like its Ancestor such as Chibiusa and Pluto- The relationship here is bland and appears as if Chibiusa doesn't care for Pluto. This is not how their relationship is supposed to be depicted. The Introduction of our Sailor Scouts is boring and does not fully express there personality with accurate Portrayals such as the first one (This is something you learn in writing)- For Example Jupiter is met by blocking Usagi from Water when a car passes, in the old one Jupiter fights a bunch of Bullies and Saves Usagi from what could have been a bit of a mess. The Old one gives us a great introduction of what type of character she is- Someone who should be seen as strong, cool and level-headed, whereas this new one, does not do that at all- I learned nothing from this. As I said before characters and scenes Lack Emotion, the cinematography half the time fails the show to be make it Unique so it just ends up like any other Anime nowadays. The new Art Style also makes it feel this way. Just like any other Anime. Sure the new flashy effects when they transform and do magic is cool but it doesn't make up for everything they decided not to do in the new one...

In Conclusion: Boring+Common Art Style, Bad CGI, Boring Voice Acting, Bad Cinematography, Lack of Direction+Lack of Emotion, Lacks the Understanding on how to express Character Growth and Relationships

Just don't waste your time.
