Midweek something? Sailor Moon series 1 vs Sailor Moon Crystal series 1

Honestly I didn't know what to call this post. ButYes here we go, yet another talk about Sailor Moon. But this is only because I've decided to revisit the original anime. I'm going to try and keep the asetetics out of this because let's face it they both had questionable designs, but you expected better from Crystal what with it being new. But whatevs.

Quickly touching on one of the most major differences between the original and the reboot was that the tone was completely different. With the original you had this funny charm to it that, let's be honest, is the best. It's not as serious as its newer counterpart, which is a let down. Personally speaking I missed the fun side to the anime, it's what made it enjoyable from the start. But then again maybe the reboot is being true to what the story is trying to portray? 

You have this 14 year old school girl who is clumsy and lazy who in a matter of a few minutes is thrown into being a super heroine, and she doesn't like it but she's plodding along with it because this cat is telling her to do so. Now, Crystal made me feel really angry at Usagi during most of the season. She needed so much help it seemed and that came across as a serious problem. Also what bugged me was how she handled "problems" when it came to her MIRIACRU ROMANSU Mamoru, she just seemed to sulk and get overly jealous. Even with a child involved. Which lets face it is creepy. At least in the old anime it was just like "Oh you" and it wasn't as much of an issue because it wasn't serious. You wasn't thinking "FUCKING GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER" every episode.

Filler episodes. WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM?! I honestly love the filler episodes in the oldie! You actually got to know a wide range of the characters. You had lots of episodes including Harou, Usagi's best friend, who gets dropped after a while. Honestly I would love to see an episode based on how she feels when Usagi gets these four new friends because I'd be honest, I would be pissed! (I think there is an actual episode? I can't remember) There was a lot more random villains in the older one too. Crystal doesn't have the feeling of going at a steady pace. It would have been nice to have some episodes in between meeting each senshi, like in the older series.

Please. The transformation sequences SUK in crystal. NO CGI. That is all.

Lastly music. I have to admit I hate the music in the Japanese version of Sailor Moon and that I love the music in crystal. Take out the American dub music and place it into the original Japanese sub and I would be happy. Only thing I can say is that the English dub for the original series was bad and that NO ONE SHOULD HAVE CHANGED A THING. Also the opening sequence song is vile. I actually hated it as a kid. I love Moon Pride and I'm hoping they make that into an official English version with similar lyrics.

I ONLY JUST REALISED THAT ZOISITE IS A WOMAN IN THE ENGLISH DUB!!!! Yeah no matter what I'm completely against the English dub from changing same sex couples into different sex characters or the infamous cousin incest thing going on between Neptune and Uranus.
