A trailer has been released for the new Sailor Moon anime; Sailor Moon Crystal (Source: Click here, there are also a few screenshots!). It will begin airing on July 5th and will be streamed on Niconico and Crunchyroll (Click here for more info).

So, what do you all think? :)

 
Sailor Moon is an overrated anime in my opinion, I don't really get why so many people like it.

Not to mention Sailor Moon gets saved by that masked guy half of the time.

Well, the anime is quite different from the manga. This remake is supposed to be much closer to the manga (and thus how the author intended the series to be), which is one of the reasons why people are looking forward to this. :)

I have to admit though, the music from the trailer is badass. I also noticed that the artstyle seems more detailed than the old, cartoonish kind of art style, which means it's not aimed at younger audiences anymore? I get that kind of vibe from it.

It seems interesting enough, so I might go and watch it, because I kind of dislike the old one. :)
 
Hi! I'm looking forward to it as an old fan of the manga version >w<. I kinda didn't like the first anime because of all the non-canon stuff. But this one really looks like the "real" Usagi I liked in the books! If they kept Naru, Umino and the whole dango stuff, I'll be delighted ^w^!
 
I'm pretty pumped for this! About a year ago I watched through the old series for the sake of nostalgia. I'm definitely going to be watching this reboot, especially if it will be closer to the manga.
 
I'm so looking forward to it! The old anime has been released in higher quality, but I can't watch it because I'm not American. -.- Oh and the new anime is being released on my birthday hehe.
 
crap

Well i knew this day would come, the world shall be overflown in the great flood of anime fans crying loudly

imma move to antartica and live in my cardboard box

in sll seriousness though, mabye it will be slightly entertaining. The original felt like it was a product of hanna barberras japanese studio

I feel most people love it out of childhood nostalgia. :)
It was on TV when I was a kid but I never really watched it. It was way too girly for me rofl.

I understand how you feel. I loved the first series, but at some point the saga just made me roll my eyes. I mean; yeah, I understand that filler episodes were needed, but at some point it was just ridiculous (like the whole "we meet this person who later today is going to be attacked by the enemy!" and what not).

However, like I said before; this remake is supposed to be much closer to the manga. So we'll just have to wait and see! (That being said; the manga is actually quite dark if you compare it to the anime we know, so I'm curious what this remake will be like...)

Actually, it's how I learned French. No, seriously; my grades weren't all that great so I asked the teacher what I could do to improve them and the answer was "watch cartoons". I was like "whut?", but about two weeks later I found Sailor Moon on TF1 (French channel) and watched it because what I was seeing was funny. But I didn't understand a whole lot of it. Anyway, I began taping the episodes and then watching them with - I'm not kidding - the dictionary on my lap (always fun, though, if you have to search for a word and you have no idea how it's written!). Strangely enough, this helped, because my grades improved. So it's also partially childhood nostalgia for me, but if my grades hadn't been bad, I would probably have never discovered Sailor Moon, haha.

Am i the only one who's slightly bothered by the animation style? O:

No, you're not the only one. I don't know what to think about it, really. I guess I'll know better after having watched a complete episode. But the series is supposed to be more like how the author intended it to be, so... Still, it *is* quite different from what we're used to. But if this turns out to be like Saint Seiya Omega, I might scream.
 
I'm really excited for it, but I don't like how the eyes look. This perfectly shows what my issues with it are (the top being the edit, the middle being the manga, and the bottom being the new anime). I'm hoping it's something they'll change before it airs, or if there's not enough time for that then maybe for the BD release or just improve on it over time.

Still though I'm super excited and I hope they keep it going long enough to get to the Outer Senshi.
 
I hope they use the original names for the attacks if they are basing it on the old anime ones. I hated that the remake-manga used PGSM names -_-

everyone ignore her. If you don't like it Kildor, then why are you on this thread? I'm confused by people ho go on threads about certain topics when they don't like it!

I'm very excited for the new season! ^-^%

It's not a new season. It's a remake.
 
Two more images: here and here (source: here).

Still not entirely sure what to think of the remake. I guess I'm just so used to the original series that anything else will look different to me (not to say 'weird'). I'm not sure, but I was thinking that Usagi looks older, actually. She's supposed to be 14, right? I don't know, but she looks older now. Of course, that's just based on a few images; we'll have to wait until we see her 'in action', so to speak. ^_^'

I actually think the eyes look okay. Wasn't so sure of them at first, but they seem to grow on me the more pictures I see of them.

Oh, I wasn't referring to the eyes, I meant in general. ^_^ I'm curious to see a colored picture of Mamoru, though!

Also, I love your avatar. <3

Ignore me haha. I quoted the wrong person, probably because it was late at night and I was exhausted. Anyway, I meant quote Piroshi because they mentioned the eyes. c:

Oh and thank you. I've been having lots of fun with animated avatars hehe.
