I loved the original sailor moon,I read the manga,I bought the merch,I drove my parents up the wall with the screaming constantly blaring from my tv. But this one anime,turned the other one around completely for me. I heard about sailor moon crystal because of it's HORRIBLE ratings,so I decided to watch it and have a laugh. But when I finished season 1 my first thought was, WHY DO PEOPLE HATE THIS ANIME?! In my opinion,this one top'ed the original.at least this usagi wasnt annoying. And it was the same character,and person,so how is that even possible? this sailor moon kicked butt! The only thing I didnt like about this anime,wasthat the animation was...disturbing and a little creepy to look at,man at least the original sailor moon didnt make me feel like losing my lunch!
I personally really enjoy this one.and I think all fan's of the original should at least check it out.
