Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 30! W/review :3

YAAAAAAAY FINAL DAY!

Day 30

"Favourite Moon Cat"

Luna. She's sassy at times but above all she's Usagi's teacher. Human form Luna is gorgeous and the story they have for her in one of the sailor moon movies is a lovely but sad one.

I don't like Kompettio! 

----------------------------
Final words of this challenge.

SO FUCKING REPETITIVE. It was fun in the beginning but then it got very boring to the point where I physically couldn't conjure up the strength to re-write what I had said a few days earlier.

Moral of the story: find a better challenge.

If anyone has a good challenge then please point me in the right direction!

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 26, 27, 28, 29

Left it so late. I'm really doubting to actually post this today or just wait till tomorrow as there is only one day... BUT I will post because I might write what I thought of this challenge on the end tomorrow.... Hahahaha
------------------------------
Day 26

"Least Favourite Villain"

Pretty much most of them really. 

I just don't get the negaverse. 
------------------------------
Day 27

"Scout You Are Most Like"

Moon, Venus and Neptune. Sometimes Uranus.

I'm cute and funny and serious only when it's needed and even then I'm not sure I'm acting correctly. I also feel like I'm graceful (Neptune comes across as graceful) but well that's just how I feel, that might not be true. Ive been told I'm a huge flirt but honestly I think people just don't understand kindness.
------------------------------
Day 28

"Scout You Are Least Like"

I have no idea. 

Actually I don't think I'm like Mars, Jupiter, Pluto or Saturn... Or Mercury. I'm not serious, smart or strong physically and that's what I feel these characters are most of the times.
------------------------------
Day 29

"Senshi or Starlights"

I like the senshi more. I think they kinda make more sense and we get to know them pretty well in the animes, where the Starlights are only around for one season, I didn't feel like I understood why they were here if I'm honest.

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 22, 23, 23 & 25

Yeah.... Whooooooopsie. Sorry but this instalment might contain spoilers :3
--------------------------
Day 22

"Sailor Moon Moment That Upsets You"

Any of the moments where all the sailor senshi dies. This happens a few times I believe. 

Or when Zoisite dies in Naru's arms.....

Or when Usagi is the only sailor senshi that remembers dying....
--------------------------------
Day 23

"Sailor Moon Moment That Makes You Happy"

WHEN THEY ALL GET THEIR MEMORIES BACK AND USAGI ISN'T UPSET ABOUT BEING THE ONLY PERSON OT REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED.
-------------------------------
Day 24

"Sailor Moon Moment That Makes You Cry"

It's gonna sound sad, but remember what I said above? 

ALL OF THEM.

There's probably a few more but I'm in the process of re-watching them all.
-------------------------------
Day 25

Funnies Sailor Moon Moment.

Okay can you see why I'm getting pissed off with these questions?

I'm being asked YET AGAIN of a funny moment.

Either way I'm gonna say the episode where Mamrou lets the sailor senshi come to a party being held by one of his college tutors. Usagi gets drunk and tries to talk English.

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 19, 20 & 21

Woooow can we tell I hate this challenge or what?! Haha. Okay so I noticed I mixed up the questions last time, it was actually meant to be "manga or anime" so I'm just gonna put that there under day 19 because I can :3
-------------------------------
Day 19 

"Manga or Anime"

I like both actually. You can't make me choose between both, that's just mean. Should I explain what I like about both? Okay I'm going to take that as a yes because I can :P

Manga:
I only read the manga once but I honestly loved it! The art is just gorgeous! And the storyline is obviously amazing. You read so much more about what goes on in each arc, a definite bonus if your like me and didn't read the manga before the anime. 

Anime: SO FUCKING FUNNY. MANY EMOTIONS. God the anime is completely separate from the manga. The art style is one, but also the story is slightly different.

By slightly I mean a lot. Example the beginning of Sailor Moon R; the death tree wasn't in any of the manga, which I discovered after doing a bit of research that it was a filler for Naoko to actually make the second (and future) instalment of the anime. 

The newest anime: well you all know my views on that. It's very rigid. And some of the animation looks horrid.

TL;DR 
I would say definitely watch the original anime. Just for the lols. Watch the newer anime for the animation fails. And read the manga to find out more about the original anime and all the other pieces the anime forgot to mention!
-------------------------------------
Day 20

"Worse Dressed Scout"

REI STOP WEARING YOUR SHRINE MAIDEN OUTFIT PLZ

---------------------------------------
Day 21

"One thing you wished the show had"

Well I would have said closer storyline to the manga but we have seen the new anime and can all agree it's too rigid.

Can I wish that Toei didn't do the animation for the new anime? Because I would wish that.

Review: Chilli Chapel *Mystery Wig*

So since the closing, re-branding and new management, of Geisha Wigs (now named "Lush Wigs"), I've had to source new and reputable wig stores that isn't from eBay or Amazon. I've had one bad wig and one wearable but low quality wig from both ebay and Amazon, So I've decided to stick with independent online stores! 

And what would you know I had about 4 wig stores follow me on my Instagram account, lucky me right? One of which is "Chilli Chapel Wigs", owned by a very lovely gym bunny and alternative model Chilli Chapel.

After looking though the stores website, I decided to take the plunge and buy a mystery wig. I'm a bit of a sucker for mystery/lucky dip wigs and only was a bit dissapointed with one of two lucky dip wigs from GW, not that the wig was of bad quality- it really isn't- I got a natural wig which I guess was the only one in stock as I ordered pretty late, and the shop was closing.

So taking the plunge I bought a Mystery Wig from Chilli Chapel. I've seen a few I love on there and as soon as I ordered I wanted either a purple or blue wig.

Order placed and I'm now early awaiting for my delivery. And guess what came a day after recieving my confirmation email?

I FUCKING LOVE HELLO KITTY. Seriously, how cute?! I have an unhealthy obsession with hello kitty so this was overly happy when I saw this. And upon opening this outer package I was met with a lovely delicate tissue package containing my wig. 


I was so happy I got a wig in my favourite colour.....


PURPLE!!!

Also I love the card that came with the wig, mystical warrior princess Chilli that makes me think back to my world of Warcraft playing days.

I don't exactly need to say anymore. I recommend this little business :3


Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 17 & 18

I have had enough of this challenge. I'm doing this again, posting two days of challenges in one, because I'm getting annoyed with these stupid questions!

Day 17

"Best Villain Attack"
(Example of stupid question)

The fuck? Reeeeally? 

Okay well I actually like the battle sequences between Usagi and any of the big boss baddies. So does that count? Fuck it I'm submitting this anyway. Sailor moon police, arrest me!
------------
Day 18

"Sailor Moon Episodes: Dubbed or Subbed"

SUBBED
ALWAYS
NO EXCEPTIONS

Okay so in the beginning I watched the dubbed episodes but found it really confusing when finishing the dub for sailor moon super and going onto sailor moon super s subbed. Also with a lot of anime the characters sound more irritating when in dub form.

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 16

"Best Inner Senshi Attack"

Ummmmmmm.....

Jupiters supreme thunder dragon attack, from the early episodes of Sailor Moon S. That actually took care of a monster by the witches 5 in one attack. I was like "good for you girl". 

It might actually be on the same level as Uranus and Neptune's attacks we see in the same series. 

Monday, 14 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 14 & 15

Yet again I'm behind on doing these daily challenges so (yet again) here's the last two days worth of challenges ^_^
--------------------
Day 14

"Best dressed senshi"

They all dress both badly and great and let's face it, the 90s had some questionable fashion choices. 

But with that being said I really like some of Usagi's wardrobe choices. 

Example the short prom dress she wore to that party where she got drunk. Or the cute pink jumper and black skater skirt combo, my favourite. 

One outfit I absolutely hated was the weird 50s style combined with a denim jacket and stripy socks.

But then again there's others that I liked the looks of so..... There's quite a lot of nice and bad though I think we can all say Mamoru is the worse offender in the original anime!
-----------------------------------
Day 15

"Best Outer Senshi Attack"

Well seeing as I'm currently up halfway through season "s", there is really only Chibiusa, Michiru and Hauka that are the outer senshi.

I think the best, in terms of funny cause I love funny, is Chibi Moons pink sugar heart attack. The first time that is used its so funny. She has to be a certain distance for her attacks to work as she's still in training and the attacks are pretty irritating in the receiving end. Is she considered outer senshi? Probably not.

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 12 & 13

So I have been busy this weekend and I have been behind posts so I thought to do a double post xD

Day 12

"Favourite Inner Senshi"

I already mentioned that I was a fan of Minako, so maybe I shall talk about another favourite? I would definitely say that Mokoto is a favourite of mine.

Everyone needs that friend that will fuck people up if they hear someone talking smack about you. You also need a friend that can cook and bake cakes AND fix your home up because you are a pig. She's really strong and I honestly feel like she should be a punk or a heavy rocker because she can use lightning, which I think is edgy, but then again she is edgy. But she's also really sweet and adorable and is a big softie.

------------------------------------
Day 13

"Favourite Secondary Character"

Naru. Why did we stop seeing her in the anime? She was Usagi's best friend before she became a sailor scout and then she just slowly disappeared after the third series....

Maybe she got fed up with being in the firing line of the Dark Kingdom she decided to stay at home with Umino.

Pouch diaries

Since having my internal pouch, I've had mostly good days. However I come across some weird days. 

Today is one of them days.

I stay over my nans every so often and on the times I'm with her my pouch likes to play up. I get horrible trapped wind feelings mostly which obviously I have to either hold in I go to the toilet to relieve myself. Most times I go to the toilet because this sensation is painful and unpleasant.

My diet only changes very slightly, by that I mean bigger portions. My nan is your typical nan, she's a feeder bless her. And I can't leave food because I feel bad.

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 11

"Favourite Outer Senshi"

FUCK YEAH BOI. Sailor Neptune for sure.

She's so graceful and elegant, talented and pretty. Her and Haruka take care of Hotoru and they are all like a big family and that's adorable in its sense.

Not much else to say really xD

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 10

"Character you wish was a Sailor Senshi"

Umm....? What? Does this mean a character that's in the anime or? 

If so...

Tuxedo mask. Her/his ultimate move you ask? Useless catchphrases that make the enemy freeze forever, for their minds are trying to come up with how that was relevant they go into a frozen state for eternity.

OR Neo Queen Serenity. It would basically be the Eternal Sailor Moon outfit though to be fair, which I don't like at all. Wait? Isn't that Sailor Cosmos? That whole end storyline was confusing as fuck so I don't even know anymore!

Wednesday, 9 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 9

"Negaforce, Black Moon Clan, Death Busters, Dead Moon Circus or Shadow Galactica?"

Okay I assume I have to pick my favourite evil organisation? 

***SPOILERS- sorry I wanted to avoid them but I just couldn't ***

Why isn't the death tree/space aliens on that list?!!!! They had such a messed up relationship that was both tragic and hilarious.

But I think I will have to go with the first bad guy organisation. Just so you know I mean the Negaforce. It sounds like a 80s glam rock band which is awesome, anything that sounds like a metal or glam rock band is automatically a favourite, that includes queen Metallia (I used to call her Metallica cause it's similar. And I like to throw people off. The inner troll likes to come out and play sometimes). But actually if you were to be picky, like me, you would obviously know what they are originally called "The Dark Kingdom". Whoever made this challenge was an avid dub viewer clearly ;3

The reason behind this is many. In my case it's this: in the original anime you find out that all of Queen Beryl's "commanders" we're the four knights that served Prince Endymion (Darien for anyone who soley watched the dub) before they all became corrupt. Then in the Manga the inner scouts were paired off with the four princes. THOUGH I don't quite understand how that would have worked out since Zoisite and Kunzite had a bit of a thing in the anime, but I think we can blame Toei Animation for that... And then we can thank DiC/ViS media for changing Zoisite into a woman to make it "child friendly" because God forbid they portray homosexual relationships but it's okay to show kids a transgender lobster (the powderpuff girls).

Anyway aside the sidetracking, there was depth to these characters. They kinda had a great back story. I actually wished there was a side series of the old moon Kingdom and how the sailor scouts learned to become warriors. Yes my cosplay isn't based off that little fantasy at all....

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 8

"Favourite Villain"

Esmeraude

She is one of those typical 90's anime villains, she's so sassy and funny. You know the type of villain! Them ones where they are laughing like "oooooohohohohohohohh"...

I will give you an example: Naname from Revoultionary Girl Utena. You need another example? Well tough I don't have one.

Basically I love her character for that. I'm sure there's other characters like that in the series but for now she is my favourite. I just wished she wasn't bumped off by the dark moon clan! 

Monday, 7 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 7

"Most beautiful/handsome character"

I feel like I need to do both. So that's what I'm gonna talk about!

Most beautiful character: Neo Queen Serenity. Even more so in Sailor Moon Crystal but she's still gorgeous in the original anime too. I mean I don't even need to explain why. It must be all the fighting, surely? 

Most handsome character: Nephrite, or Yuichirou. I don't exactly know why really..... I think how they come across in some episodes, especially so in the original sailor moon cause let's face it Nephrite doesn't have the emotionally traumatising death episode and Yuichiro isn't even in the new series.

Sunday, 6 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 6

"Couple you wished existed"

USAGI AND KOU SEIYA

OMFG

PLEASE

Just watch the stars anime and you will see what I mean! She treats Usagi so much better than Mamoru! But then again we don't know what happens to Manouru, or do we? I don't want to give out a spoiler.

Saturday, 5 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 5

"Favourite Canon Couple"

Michiru and Haruka

Their relationship is just lovely. Like, they are an item but it's confusing to others but you can tell but they wont divulge into it. Michiru isn't all possessive over Haruka and how they talk to each other is just adorable. Like saying to each other "you're the one" it melts my heart. They just go so well together. I love it.

You can just feel the love. 

#relationshipgoals

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 4

"Best friendship"

Umm.... All of the friendships in the anime are nice? Literally, them girls do not hold grudges even against their enemies. Usagi even goes out her way to cleanse the black moon clans sister villain group thing... And even then that is adorable.

If I really had to pick, even though I don't like her, it would have to be Usagi and Rei. They are the most real type of friendship, like Rei basically hates Usagi and is all Tsundre towards her. She even gives up Mamoru for the sake of MIRACRU ROMANSU. They are both funny together, then again any pairing with Usagi is funny cause they all make fun of her....

Poor Usagi. 

It would be bad if they all didn't love her, let's be fair. 

Thursday, 3 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 3

"Favourite character recently"

MINAKO 

I watched the episode where everyone gets ill and she's the only one who is well. She looks after all the other girls, she is honestly so funny in that episode. She's very funny and like Usagi, I didn't see it watching the dub which I know is odd, but I only really recently liked her because I'm (mentioning again) watching the whole series again in the original subtitled form. Honestly it's so much better, there's a few characters that I see in a new light. Except from Rei. I still can't stand Rei.

Wednesday, 2 September 2015

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 2

"Favourite character when you were younger"

SAILOR MOON/USAGI/SERENA

:3

When I got older and fully watched all the episodes, because I only remember bits and bobs from the series as a kid, I understood why. She was a cry baby, clumsy, not academic and loves food. I saw myself in her when I was little I guess, and I still do now.

Oh wait? I think I just answered one of the later challenges! Oops x)

Sailor Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 1

"When did you first watch sailor moon?"

I started watching Sailor Moon probably around 1999/2000. My dad and his then girlfriend, my half sisters mum, had all the channels on sky and I would watch Fox Kids. 

I was amazed there was this super hero that was a girl and that she stood for love and justice. THE TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE HAD ME it was so pretty! I don't remember but I think I watched the second season? (The transformation where she puts the brooch on her chest and then the brooch puts ribbon on her torso first with wings etc )

I also loved the music on the transformation, something that has stuck with me while watching the sub. And there was a lot of talking about Serena being the moon princess and that whole story had me too. I automatically knew that Serena was the  moon princess, clever, clever child haha.
