Fun fact since you're new to anime, the creators of sailor moon and Hunter x Hunter are married in real life
OMG, I watch anime since I was a child and I didn't know this.......
here's a fun fact, the creator of Oh My Goddess! married a Goddess in real life.
yess
Naoko Takeuchi and Yoshihiro Togashi
@@nim4464 yes the manga powered couple 💑 😍
Don't go forgetting YuYu Hakusho lol
Moonlight densetsu is one of the most iconic anime songs ever. It spawned tons of amazing covers with original twists to it from all over the world
The song is so iconic that they said "why change perfection?" and just updated the backing graphics to match the new season
Definitely! It's so catchy, and kinda unique, as it's a full-on ominous, minor-key theme song...for the GOOD guys.
As for covers, DEFINITELY look up the one done by traditional oldschool Japanese instruments. It sounds so cool! :D
Man... it's hard to overstate how influential Sailor Moon was on an entire generation of anime nerds in the west. For so many of us, particularly middle and elder millennial girls growing up in the 90s, it was not only our gateway to anime and Japanese culture in general, it was also the first time many of us had ever seen an entirely female-centric action superhero story. It was SO important.
You forgot many of us Millennial boys that watched Sailor Moon
@@MetalPharoah having never been a millennial boy myself i can't really speak for them, but fair enough!
true for me it will always have a special place in my heart bkz it reminds me of my childhood and i love it very much
I'm a guy and I watched it growing up. I'd say it rivaled DBZ in the late 90s. I can't remember the queens name but I loved the final fight from the first story arc
@Jeremy Peake Queen Beryl, who was being manipulated by the Negaforce itself. The adaptation storyline was going to have season 5's Sailor Galaxia darkness be the Negaforce itself that reached throughout to Beryl, Wiseman, Pharoah 90, Nehelenia. So it was going to come full circle but DiC was having no success with Sailor Moon and only dubbed the first 2 seasons and all 3 movies
"Superheroes if they were all cute girls" is a surprisingly accurate way to describe the magical girl genre if that helps
No respect for Molly. Discrimination!
The process of a guy listening to the classic Sailor Moon theme.
1st time: You think it sounds too girly for your taste.
2nd time: You begrudgingly admit that it's a little catchy.
3rd time: This song is now stuck in your head.
4th time: You are starting to like it.
5th time: You realize that this song is going to be stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
6th time: You are now *happy* to have this song stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
7th time: Your dad just caught you singing along with it and is now shaking his head in disappointment at you.
8th time: You no longer care if your dad is disappointed with you and sing the song loud and proud.
i'm on the 9th stage
7 was my dad bopping along and whistling it while it played on TV 😂
10 was my dad buying the DVDs and merch for my sisters and I 😩🤌
Sailor Moon is from the 90s, 1992 to be exact. Sailor Moon belongs in a certain genre of anime called Magical Girl genre. It's basically about girls in cute outfits who fight monsters using magic, and Sailor Moon is like one of the forerunners of that genre which basically created a lot of the tropes the genre is well known for and popularized it.
There's also another series of Sailor Moon called Sailor Moon Crystal which is a remake of Sailor Moon and it started in 2014.
Sailor Moon is one of those anime responsible for popularizing anime in the west together with Dragon Ball Z.
Also, you should check out Gundam openings. That's also one of the OGs.
Yeah, I hope Luke reacts to the Sailormoon Crystal Openings also. In line with OG anime, I would also like him to react to Gundam OPs and Card Captor Sakura OPs.
Yeah gundam openings will be divided in a couple of videos imo. They are too many of them lol
A reaction to Gundam OPs would be sick! It would have to be broken down into parts, ideally by era/type, but some guidance would likely be needed on that. Then again, it would be quite the rollercoaster of reactions just going in release order.
Yasss Gundam
Sailor moon is to magical girl, to what dragon ball is to battle shonen, and Gundam is to Mecha
You don’t have to apologize about getting the song stuck in our heads. The English version has been living in my head rent free since the 90s. I still know all the lyrics lol
Same! FIGHTING EVIL BY MOONLIGHT xD xD
@@cassiebillion3511 Winning love by daylight!
@@Drewtendo NEVER RUNNING FROM A REAL FIGHT!!
@@tranatkikomi6873 She is the one named Sailor Moon.
@@Abyrae She will never turn her back on a friend
Some things you got right:
1) Usagi (the protagonist) is a princess.
2) There is a lot of slice-of-life / normal life situations.
3) They fight aliens.
The sailors are guardians of the Earth and the Moon Kingdom (which was destroyed) that fight threats that come from within the solar system (the inner guardians: Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus) and from outside (the outer guardians: Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Saturn). Sailor Moon is the reincarnation of the Moon Princess. The anime in itself its great, I think it is my favorite of all times, but I don't think it is for everyone. There is a lot of comedy, a lot of slice-of-life moments, a lot of development for the characters and their relationships, a lot of fighting the monster of the week, and a loooot of emotional and memorable moments. At the beginning it might get tiring because its just random episodes until the fight really emotional moments with the second villain.
Although not always aliens... I guess depending on how you define aliens, most of them arguably aren't aliens... Or they could mostly be aliens? I mean most of them are essentially human, but then a bunch of them didn't originate on Earth... I forget...
@@KitsyX Yeah, they are not always alien, but most of them are. The overall enemy, Chaos, is somewhat alien and somewhat not, because it is everywhere in the universe. Beryl and the generals were from Earth, Ail and Ann were alien, Black Moon was from Nemesis (although their clan originated on Earth, the ones we see should have been born on Nemesis(?) based on age), Death Phantom was from Nemesis 100%, Death Busters were aliens from outside the Solar system, and also was Galaxia and the Animamates. And although Amazon (Trio and Quartet) were from Earth, Neherenia was from the Moon, so she was technically alien to Earth too. But yeah, there are some antagonists that are from Earth, especially in season 1.
@@RPMizu I think the implication is humans (or human-like) colonized the galaxy long ago and the people of Earth just forgot about it. Even the cats true forms are just humans with cat ears and they come from another planet too.
Well not always aliens some of them are sailor senshi but evil ones
@@pauline5678 The sailor senshi that were villains were also aliens, they were from other planets. The ones that were not aliens were the Dark Kingdom in the first season, and I don't know who else o.o Even Demand and the others were born in Nemesis, even if their people were once from Crystal Tokyo.
sailor moon is THE mother of all classics, it's very ingrained into pop culture and was made by a very talented woman. watching it gives instant nostalgia and immense comfort. its soul food and does not overstimulate after a long day of work.
As a 31 year old man, I’m not ashamed to say that I love Sailor Moon. I grew up watching both the English dub and original Japanese. Sailor Moon is a very iconic anime and one of the most successful ones in history.
My first fully watched anime series in my life! (About 25 years ago) I love it, has everything you want: comedy, romance, drama, horror, sc-fi,magic. If you watch this you get full specrum of emotions, from laught to cry.
Sailor Moon the anime came out in 1992 & became vastly popular especially overseas. This series basically gave life to the magical girl era. The main characters referred to as Sailor Senshi, are based on the 9 planets. (at the time Pluto was considered a planet then scientist went on to change it to other things.) The the Titled Character Sailor Moon is not only a Senshi but something else. The first season is the Dark Kingdom Arc, R the seconded season is the Dark Moon Arc, S the third season is Death Busters Arc, Super S the fourth season is Dead Moon Circus Arc, & lastly the fifth season the Stars Arc. Its full of romance, character growth, sorrow & battles. Depending on how you are it can be an emotional ride. The series also has special episodes & 3 movies during its original run. Then the series was given a reboot in 2011 called Sailor Moon Crystal covering the 1st 3 Arcs. Sailor Moon Eternal which covers the 4th Arc was made into a 2 part movie. Now we are waiting for the next 2 part movie that covers the final season Sailor Moon Stars that is scheduled to release this year.
Sailor Moon is basically a reincarnation of all life in our universe a millennium later. Forces that caused the Senshi's to awaken in the the Dark Kingdom Arc are the ones that caused the reason for reincarnation. Then R deals with the past meeting the future. S deals with 3 more senshi having been awoken by forces that sneaked in from the outer solar system & to stop the Messiah of Silence from awakening. Super S is also called the Dream Arc where the villains come from the dark side of the moon in search of beautify dreams as they hunt down Pegasus. Stars Arc is about the Senshi wars that took place outside our peaceful system.
SAILOR MOON IS A CLASSIC. Thank you but I think you should do not only opening but also the endings, they are so pretty
Yu Yu Hakusho, Utena, Slam Dunk, InuYasha are left!!!! they are classics with amazing music (opening & ending)
Endings as well? Okay! 💯
@@GOTGames yees 🔥 thank u for doing them reactions 🙌🏻
@@GOTGames Yes please watch Inuyasha openings and endings!!!
@@GOTGames the endings are almost better than the openings!
sailor moon was basically the show that, for a lack of a better word, crystalized the common magical girl tropes, making it essentially the godmother of the modern magical girl genre
It did that by tapping into sentai tropes. So, I can legitimately say that mecha anime (in a very roundabout manner) birthed modern magic girls.
First, this anime is early 90's and literally raised me as a child. Every morning before school and later when I got home on Cartoon Network.
Second, don't be fooled by the opening; it's iconic but this show makes great use of its music in both sub and dub and has many great insert songs and endings. Some of the original songs created in the dub are still a bop today.
Third, you have triggered a 10 hour OST nostalgic throwback to this show and I thank you from the bottom of my little school girl heart
Revolutionary Girl Utena is also a classic retro anime that definitely deserves it's own opening reaction!
It's not popular though...
@@LordADNsVlog I mean sure it isn't nearly as well known as Evangelion or Sailor Moon, but that doesn't erase it's status as a classic highly influential anime or change the fact that there are still plenty of fans!
Sailor Moon is basically the parent of the magical girl genre. It isn't the first one, but its the most enduring one.
Yeh, the first FOUR seasons of Sailor Moon used the same song. It was about 160 episodes of the original show. Only season 5 had a different song. I don't speak Japanese, though I've learned plenty of random words over the years from watching anime, but I know that song by heart and can sing it in Japanese.
The pink haired little girl is Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask's daughter from the future. Don't ask how old she is; her back story involves time travel, temporal stasis and immortality so who the hell knows.
I'd say it's more the parent of merging the magical girl and super sentai genres. You had magical girls like Sally The Witch in the '60s, then ass-kicking fighter magical girls like Cutie Honey in the '70s, then Sailor Moon having a full colour-coded team of ass-kicked fighter magical girls in the same vein as Power Rangers (aka Super Sentai) or Ninja Turtles.
Chibiusa in the manga is stated to be about 900 years old...
@@animefreak26able yeah at time she was born the lore is people age VERY slowly so yeah shes between 500 and 900 years old
This is the most famous anime of the Magical Girl genre. Magical girl are animes where girls will transform to an alter ego and receive magical powers, kinda like a power ranger transformation. Another OG famous one you shoud react to is Cardcaptor Sakura which made a huge success among men even though their demographic was targeted into young women.
Oh! I love Sakura!!! I watched it with my son when he was a kid (40yo now)
Tokyo Mew Mew too
Iirc it was actually targeted a lot to boys in the US. Like, they put Syaoran in all the marketing stuff and called it just Cardcaptors, instead of Cardcaptor Sakura.
@@MsLilly200 wow! I wasn't aware of how it was marketed and heavily modified in the US. That is borderline criminal haha. Anyway as a shoujo (young women demographic) anime it was still pretty popular among men and adults outside US.
honestly a good way to think about sailor moon (and the magical girl genre in general) is "power rangers but all girls"
generally about half of the episode is the daily life of the main characters, which in the case of sailor moon since they're 14 at the start of the series, is mostly either school life or a bit of romantic drama, and the other half they transform into their magical girl selves to fight the monster of the week, with a slowly building overall plot that builds into both halves of the episodes. major tropes of the genre, and honestly modern anime as a whole, were massively popularized here. also, for as cute and sweet as it might seem, the magical girl genre has ALWAYS been darker than it first appears.
I'm from Argentina. Back in 1992-1995, Sailor Moon and Saint Seiya were the series that definitely opened the doors to anime in the region. Before that in the 80s there were very good series like Macros (the Robotech version) that hit hard, but at that time it was something more niche.
Then came great series like Dragon Ball and the rest is history.
I suggest that you react to the Saint Seiya openings now that you already did the Sailor Moon ones.
Sailor Moon is a classic. I believe it came out late 1994. The original Manga started in 1991.
Also PLEASE REACT TO THE YU YU HAKUSHO OP!!!! It's by Yoshihiro Togashi. He's Naoko Takeuchi's (the creator of Sailor Moon) Husband. It's a staple in Shonen Anime & has one of, if not the best single opening an Anime ever had. They even remade the song in English for the Dub so there are 2 slightly different versions.
1992 in Japan, 1995 in North America (though you likely wouldn't have seen it until some time later if you didn't live in Canada).
Please react to yu yu hakusho's openings and endings!!!!!!
I'm not a big fan of anime, but Sailor Moon was part of my childhood, the openings bring me wonderful nostalgia!!
I would like to recommend Saint Seiya and Saint Seiya - The Lost Canvas, another classic. I'm sure you'll love ❤
Oh, I love Sailor Moon so much. I think some males dismiss it because it's based on magical girls, but there are actually a lot of male fans too. The storyline is quite awesome. So nostalgic. LOVED THIS. Thank you!
You should absolutely react to Yu Yu Hakusho's intro. It's a very fun song. Also the creator of Yu Yu Hakusho is also the creator of Hunter x Hunter and is also married to the creator of Sailor Moon.
I second this.
Sailor Moon has 200 episodes in 5 seasons and aired from 1992-1997 on Japanese television, there are also 3 cinema movies.
In short, Sailor Moon is about the so-called Sailor Warriors, whose task is to protect the Earth and the solar system from evil forces that want to take it. In the process, you find out more and more about the individual characters and new ones are added more and more.
Sailor Moon was my very first anime that I watched and I love it to this day! The story is partly quite serious, but also has many funny scenes. I personally have learned from Sailor Moon to never give up and always believe in myself no matter how bad the situation looks.
Here are some anime suggestions of which you could watch the openings and endings:
- Shadow House
- Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san
- Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru (My Dress-Up Darling)
- Yuukoku no Moriarty
- The Promised Neverland
- Violet Evergarden
- Vanitas no Karte
- The Rising of the Shield Hero
he would be even more confused when comes to vanitas openings than he did for kumoko XD
@@LTDLetsPlays maybe, but i love this anime xD
Sailor moon was my first anime when I was 6-7. 200 episodes and 3 movies and 15 years later It’s still my childhood
OMG!!! This was the first anime I ever watched! I adore this anime! I watched the entire show and all of the movies. I had such a crush on the love interest. The openings are very artistic...they mainly just introduce you to the characters without giving much away. I would also recommend reacting to the endings (a lot more variety in songs there 😉). The remake, Sailor Moon Crystal, also has amazing openings. I feel like going back to rewatch some of my favorite episodes now.
Same (except, being a heterosexual male, it was the female characters that gave me weird feelings I didn't entirely understand). I first saw it as a small child in 1995 and was fascinated. It was, of course, the DiC dub/localization, which in retrospect is a pretty terrible and mutilated version - though my six-year-old self found it amazing. I have no idea why they felt the need to replace the entire soundtrack with a different, somehow even kitschier one, but damned if it isn't now etched into my brain forever.
I'm shocked that I'm hearing this here! This is the music of my entire childhood! Goosebumps...............
Man i remember this show. Its so good. Sailor Moon Crystal(reboot of Sailor Moon) has some good openings, especially season 3 imo!
Also, Jujutsu Kaisen is a newer anime, first season aired in 2020 i think(unsure when the manga started)
Also, the anime Inuyasha has some really good openings as well if you wanna check it out. Its an older anime too, quite a gem of an anime.
Sailor moon crystal is not a reboot sailor moon crystal is more base on the manga not the anime one
@@grayvanderslice4046 That's what a reboot is. It's not a continuation. It still has things that manga lovers don't care for though.
@@amandaslough125 Sailor Moon Crystal stays true to the original manga it not really a reboot Of the sailor moon anime. It just manga story act
@@amandaslough125 they did make a rebooted sailor moon 90s anime all 5 seasons are out that is not sailor moon crystal
Other openings you need to react to are Saint Seiya/Knights Of The Zodiac and the spin-off Saint Seiya - Lost Canvas (as Lost Canvas only has one opening you can check them all in the same video^^), it's an amazing anime!!
Another old-school anime you should react to is Saint Seiya and the spin-off Saint Seiya - The Lost Canvas, it's so nostalgic!!
Another bunch of anime OPs from the 90s that I think you'll like is called *"Ranma 1/2."* It's a martial arts-based comedy and was remarkably popular back in the day.
I watched this series during the month we spent preparing for a musical in school. Whenever I had downtime and wasn't rehearsing, I'd sit in a corner and binge. It'd be... 12½ years ago by now. I can't help but sing along to the opening. It's so catchy and since I never actually skipped it while watching, I knew the lyrics by the end of the show lol.
Ah, don't worry about getting this song stuck in my head for the rest of the week. It's Monday for me in about half an hour. 😆
Im pretty sure most boys who grew up with sailor moon had a crush on one of the scouts. And no need to apologize for this song getting stuck back in our heads.
As for recommendations... how about Zettai Karen Children and the spinoff The Unlimited Hyoubo Kyosuke. I just love Zettai Karen's openings.
OMG I barely ever see people react to Sailor Moon Openings so I love you, lol
I'm into really violent and heavy animes, but Sailor Moon holds a special spot in my heart. It's the first anime I ever saw on tv and I still enjoy it. Man.. Just now realized that I'm a guy in his 40's still enjoying Sailor Moon. The power of nostalgia I guess.
I'm still recommending Golden Kamuy as always, but also Vinland Saga has a new OP and ED out and I'm kinda obsessed with those too. putting in a good word for all of this!
I love Sailor Moon!! I watched this show when I was a kid.
You should react to Saint Seiya openings and also the only opening of Saint Seiya - The Lost Canvas, this anime is amazing and so nostalgic.
Sailor Moon is an absolute classic. It's what we call "Magical Girls" anime. I think is worth watch it, at least the first season.
12:38 Bold of you to think that we would mind having Moonlight Densetsu (the song that repeated many times) stuck in our heads. Actually, for me, it sometimes pops up in my head and lives free rent in it.
Ah, childhood 🤧❤ my first anime, even before I know what anime means.
Sailor moon started in 1992 and became very famous in Latam, with a great spanish dub. Sailor moon, Dragon Ball Z and Naruto were top anime shows in Latam in last 90's , early 2000's. So nostalgic 🤧❤
A cool thing is that the English version has the same instrumentals and tempo in the lyrics as the original Japanese version. Just the lyrics are different.
Same with the Swedish dub. Seams common when it comes to sailor moon.
Germany didn't use the original melody but we did our own openings song
@@NagaDarmagväxte upp till den
The instrumental was different in the English song, but yeah, the melody is the same.
They also added a guitar solo iirc
The ending song of the last episode makes me cry. 🥰
Sailor Moon is absolutely a classic, it's a few decades old and one of the highest appraised 'magical girl' kind of series. The opening and outro themes are pretty iconic to most western fans of anime from back during it's airing runtime. Another series that also has some really well known opening and even more so, outro themes, from that era would be "Inuyasha". The outro themes to that series are beautiful songs that are still amazing to this day.
Otherwise, would personally love to see you check out "Spice & Wolf". It's a rather unique series with some pretty interesting opening & outro sequences, would love to see you react to all of them!
Sailor moon is just everything. A big part of my childhood and the main reason I later on got into reading manga and manhwa /a lot/. Still know every word of all of these songs. Also got me into some Japanese too, like the most basic of vocab, and studying some of their customs and traditions etc.
The last three girls are the Sailor Star Lights and they are my Favorites! Oh my god, i really should put my dvd into my player and watch it again. I'm really enjoying this Session sooooooo much! Seiya! 😍😍😍😍😍
Omg, I love this video! Sailor Moon is my favorite anime of all time. But loved your reactions 😂
Every guy thought it wasnt their kind of anime until they watched it and it became their favorite anime of all time.
I watched the original series when it came out in English. I would recommend checking out the English op as well for sailor moon. This is an OG and, in my opinion, got a lot of early female anime watchers. Yes, there was obviously male viewer like me but at the time this had a mostly female audience. It's a great show about the struggles of a high school girl. Love, fights and magic. A triumph of the Magical Girl Genre. It's basically Power Rangers. But normally an all-female cast. Idk if you would enjoy it. But give it a try. I would watch your reactions.
As a Canadian guy born in 1989, I guess I'm a bit of an outlier. Sailor Moon took off in Canada in 1995, while its US debut was less successful and took a while longer to catch on. For boys born a couple years later, testosterone-fueled DBZ would be their early-childhood anime, but when I was six that hadn't made its way across the ocean yet, so as far as action anime went, Sailor Moon was the be-all-end-all and my entire point of reference.
It's kind of interesting to think about in retrospect. This was at a time when there was such a hard line between what was marketed to boys and what was marketed to girls that even four-year-olds would have already internalized what they were "supposed" to be into and what they definitely weren't. There was a bright pink-and-white aisle in the toy store, and as a boy you knew you wouldn't want to be caught dead walking through there. Then came the confusing anomaly of Sailor Moon. Its feminine aesthetic immediately set off those well-honed "this is a girl show, do not watch this, or at the very least do not let anyone ever know you've watched this" alarms in your head. Yet it seemed _so damn cool._ It was like Power Rangers and Ninja Turtles, yet with its own unique vibe that made it distinct. Plus it having an ongoing plot kept you constantly intrigued about what would happened next. (Which is funny considering how episodic Sailor Moon is, but that just goes to show how much _more_ episodic its western counterparts were at the time.)
The result of this was a phenomena someone could have written a graduate thesis on: if guys (and by "guys" I mean 6-to-9-year-old boys) were hanging out watching TV and Sailor Moon came on, you could sense the unspoken agreement. We all knew that if anyone at any moment said "eww, this is a girl show", everyone would have been obligated for the sake of their male cred to immediately agree and say "yeah, change the channel". Yet, knowing that we all wanted to watch it, as long as no one brought up the obvious girliness, we could all safely not acknowledge it and watch without compromising our perceived masculinity.
The last song from the last season is so epic. It was my favourite, with Sailor Stars , I cried so much the last episodes it was so heart breaking the last fight. As a child I never got to finish the series some of them were not available on TV in my country. But 15 years ago I binge watched all the series it was so good. The original ones are the best .
The last Opening is also my favourite, and so is the stars arc for me
I like it to and When Galaxia appears like that it reminds me of what Queen Beryl does in first season opener.
Watching you brought smiles to my face. I LOVE Sailormoon - this is the anime of my childhood! 💝 It is about love, friendship, faithfulness and the purity of soul. 💫
You just made my childhood, sailor moon was the best anime I watched growing up and still is 💖
Sailormoon is essentially Power Ranger/Super Sentai/monster of the week show but with "magical girls" and in anime form, with aspect of slice of life and a touch of shoujo (much more so for the original manga)
Fun fact: Hunter x Hunter author and Sailormoon author are husband and wife
Lovely redaction as always!
If you want a old-school anime, can I recommend you the openings and endings of "Rurouni Kenshin" (aka Samurai X). This is one of the few animes where I prefer the ending over the opening. They have such good songs, my personal favorite being ending #6 "junjou na kanjou". Now the series is on a indefinite hiatus cus the mangaka did some REALLY illegal things, but I think we should not ignore the hard work the singers and animators put in this anime.
Two other shoujo OP from the mid-90's that I LOVE are from The Vision of Escaflowne("Yakusoku wa Iranai") and Revolutionary Girl Utena("Rinbu Revolution"). One season each(so only one OP each). VERY different shows. Fun fact, Utena's directer was Kunihiko Ikuhara, who also directed seasons 2-4 of Sailor Moon!
And Yakusoku wa Iranai is sung by the lead actress of the show itself, which isn't all that common in anime. It was also written by Yoko Kanno, who did Tank! from Cowboy Bebop. Not at all a similar song, however. She also wrote the soundtrack for the show and it's one of my faves of all time, along with Cowboy Bebop.
I am happy to see that your try out the older anime's. There ware some interest wyrd movies and series. First some Openings and endings what can be fun:
-Legend of the galactic heroes
-Outlaw Star
-Vison of Escaflown
-Bubblegum Crisis
-Berserk (1997 is for me the best version)
If you are intersted to watch some series:
-Record of Lodos War
-Berserk (1997 Edition)
-Vison of Escaflown (the serie)
-X (the serie)
-Bubblegum Crisis
-MD Geist
-Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust
-Blue Submarine No 6
Some are interesting titels and surprise with no mainstream stories!
Sailor Moon.. the OG Magical Girl anime.
As for OG Music to listen to:
-Neon Genesis Evangelion
-Macross
-I think you already did Gundam Wing...
and while its a bit newer
-Futari wa Precure .... lots of different series with different openings. The first season tho.. kick butt
little bit of warning if you plan on watching. the first season is quite a drag and may discourage some viewers as half of the episodes are basically monster of the week. BUT, there is a reason why people have watched it. i highly recommend :))) if you can't stomach it, sailor moon crystal exists, which is basically a reboot for the series that follows the manga to a tea. happy viewing!
If he is going to watch the first season it needs to be the original in japanese with subs… the dubbed versions butchered the series.
@@gtraxxa7-TTv The English is fine until you get the Outer Scouts for the heavier editing. The dialogue itself is fine. The Eng dub should be watched at least a little bit for a historical standpoint.
Sailor Moon is basically the staple and the main progenitor (among others before) of the Magical Girl genere tropes. Magical Girl anime is basically an anime where the protagonists are mainly female (there are male characters but usually are the deuteragonist or tritagonists) and transform into an alter ego because of "magical" means (though in some instances the changes are sci fi based, but looks magical). Normaly the themes of this type of anime are love, romance, frienship between the characters but there are fights, though not as brutal as Dragon Ball or Attack on Titan, at least not normally, Sailor Moon in particular at most only have one or two relative brutal fights (relative to Sailor Moon or magical girl ones, compared to Dragon Ball or Attack on Titan, will be like just a training session for Goku and Vegita or the basic training for the Scout Regiment of Attack on Titan, for a Magical Girl character that would be a brutal battle). In the case of Sailor Moon, it's mostly a story and character driven anime, with the monster of the week as the initial basis for fights but with a real treath as background. Each season has a new treath, with its corresponding monster of the week session. There is a lot of lore behind all of this.
Also, Sailor Moon beheaves mostly like a soap opera, specially the Live Action version (yes, there is a live action tv series and two tv movie specials), I used to joke that the Live Action surpases your basic Mexican Telenovela by light years, even the modern ones, even when it has power rangers level of fighting and fantasy.
Sailor Moon anime came in 1992, so it doesn't follow the modern season episode count, seasons back then were arc based, plus the anime was being produced concurrently with the manga, so the anime adds a lot of filler episodes to compensate the lag of manga chapters releases, so the first season has around 30+ episodes, the second season is completely filler and the third onwards is similar to the first, mix with filler episodes. In 2014 I think there was a remake of the anime called Sailor Moon Crystal, it's a more faithfull adaptation of the manga, so the story goes faster and covers all the same events as the original anime, though even this kind of skips small details that the old anime does kind of cover.
Overall is a very good entry to understand the Magical Girl anime type, while it obviously was made for women and it's heavily popular among women, it also has it's male audience (I honestly just watched it becase of the long legs....ahem, I mean, the art, the art yes, that's why I watched it, has good character art 🤣), but keep in mind, not all magical girl anime will be for male tastes, but some will do.
I was 14 years old when I first watched Sailor Moon in TV.
Gonna be 44 years old in coming March. Still quite like it.
Lol his pure confusion is hilarious 🤣. This is the anime (as well as pokemon and dragonball z ) that were my first animes growing up, I remember watching it on toonami when I was like 7 yrs old. These old animes even though I love them, they don't always have the greatest of storylines and have A LOT of filler episodes (unlike AOT which practically has zero fillers) but I love it mainly because it gives me a nostalgic feeling and brings me back to my childhood days. I've watched Sailor Moon about 10 times in my life, not even an exaggeration lol.
But as far as your guess as to what this anime is about, you are not completely off the mark..technically they are aliens 😅
I LOVE SAILOR MOON WITH ALL MY HEART! 😍💖
THAT IS MY WHOLE CHILDHOOD! Absolutely adore this this anime! :)
I've been a huge fan of Sailor Moon for 22 years straight and this is possibly the funniest reaction video I've ever seen of anything Sailor Moon lmao
i recommend watching the ranking of kings 2 openings and 2 endings. the animes story telling is incredible and its one of those shows where the saying don't judge a book by its cover applies
Please check the openings of A Certain Magical Index and its spin-off A Certain Scientific Railgun.
Also the japanese names are To aru majutsu no Index and To aru kagaku no Railgun if you see those names they refer to the same series.
As someone who grew up watching this every week with my neighborhood friends for years. The theme song is iconic. My friends and I still randomly sing it together and we are grown 30some adults now. There is a 2014 remake on Hulu is a good well rounded Sailor Moon experience. Animation is stunning its called Sailor Moon Crystal. It has a vibrant opening and I would suggest listening th the Crystal one in English for a different take on it. I grew up on the English but I know both versions.
In America, during the early 90's, Sailor Moon was apart of the after school TV block that came on along with Dragon Ball Z and Power Rangers. Between 1992 and 1995 Sailor Moon was the most popular "cartoon" on TV, you couldn't escape it. The toys, dolls, music, Halloween costumes, for girls, you were either a Power Ranger, or a sailor scout. It literally became a phenomenon until Pokemon burst onto the scene.
One of my favorite anime OPs personally comes from the anime "Land of the Lustrous". The ED is also great. Only 1 OP, and there is a special ED that plays on one of the episodes, so there's 2 EDs. The anime is 3D and produced by the same studio that animated Beastars.
In Japanese, the anime is called "Houseki no Kuni".
The video by "TOHO animation" with 6M views is the correct OP video.
Same with the ED video by "TOHO animation"
The special ED named "Liquescimus" is harder to find, so I recommend the full version that has been uploaded with lyrics under the channel "No Animation Expert". I think you'll enjoy how unique this song is for an anime.
Sailor Moon endings are all VERY different and some are just super bops. It would be interesting to see you react to them with the knowledge you have for the show now!
I remember watching the openings before the anime and I got so excited about it!
Sailor moon is a classic.
You haver to admit though... the song is very catchy :D
BTW there is another classic that you must react to - Neon Genesis Evangelion (a.k.a. Evangelion or Eva) It has one of the most iconic openings
As for suggestions - God of Highschool, Cautious Hero and To Aru series have awesome openings
Some Recomandations, because you said to give you some😋
Ranma 1/2
Inu Yasha
Cowboy Bebop
Samurai Champloo
Death Note
Wolfs Rain
Weis Kreuz
Elfen Lied
Great Teacher Onizuka
These are some on my mind right now, have fun with whatever you decide to do.😉
Please react to Saint Seiya and Saint Seiya - The Lost Canvas, the openings are really good!
Please watch the Ancient Magus Bride OP's and EDs, they're amazing. There's also a song in the OST called Lindel's Song which is beautiful
“Modern day world, an alien race - Superman style - comes to earth and fights monsters” you pretty much summed it up
Ranma 1/2 and inuyasha are two amazing old ones made by the same persona. Rumiko.
Inuyasha is the OG ISEKAI ANIME, and Ranma 1/2 is Wild.
There are 2 other animes by Rumiko that were hugely popular. UY and Maison Ikaku. Fun fact about Rumiko, for several years she had the dubious honor of paying the most income tax in japan due to how much she was making.
Most Sailor Moon fans watched it as children and love it because of all the happy memories associated, myself included. I think watching it for the first time as an adult wouldn't be very enjoyable for you.
You should react to openings for Sailor Moon Crystal! It's a modern adaptation that is more faithful to the source material and the songs are pretty nice
I don't think that's neccesarily the case. Going in with set expectations the characters still sell the experience of the original series as much as they ever did imo
A (live) Reaction of you watching aaaaaall the Sailor Moon Anime (warning, the series has 200 Episodes) would be amaaaaaazing. Or like a summary reaction for each Season (they are five) or a part-season reaction... I would watch it :D
1:21: The anime is 31 years old. Sailor Moon is now 44 years old, which mean she was born in 1978
Sailor moon is a classic, I love it. Will you react to the remake's openings as well. They are so good!
Another fun reaction! Sailor Moon is very very iconic OG anime. I hope you also react to its remake OP (Sailor Moon: Crystal). This also has a live action adaptation. Sailor Moon is in the Magical Girl Genre (Mahou Shoujou) where ordinary girls gains magic powers to fight evil. In line to this genre, I would also suggest Card Captor Sakura Openings and Endings. As for OG anime, please react to Mobilesuit Gundam Openings.
I’m so happy you reacted to these openings
I recommend watching Sailor Moon!! And reacting to the endings of it, too! They’re all so lovely~
I’d also like to recommend the openings and endings to the new anime, Sailor Moon Crystal!
As far as which series to react to goes; The 90’s anime is cute and nostalgic, but I recommend watching Crystal more than the 90’s. Crystal is not only shorter and to the point, but also, truer to the source material. (No “monster of the week,” character assassinations/personality changes, and no filler episodes.)
It has 39 episodes, two movies (instead of a fourth season), and two final movies (instead of a fifth season), that will be released on June 30, Sailor Moon’s birthday.
Well, now we can't have you without reacting to the Sailor Moon Crystal openings (Crystal is a remake).
Also if you want to check out more of the magical girl genre I would highly recommend the following series:
-Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha
-Card Captor Sakura
-Corrector Yui
-Futari wa Pretty cure (or if you want to go ham and have a 1 hour reaction video go por the whole precure openings)
-Fate Kaleid liner Prisma Illya
-Magic Knight Rayearth (This one is also an Isekai like Slime or Mushoku Tensei)
And the weird ones:
-Mahou Shoujo Ore
-Kill la Kill
-Kore wa zombie desu ka
and for a complete dark twist on the genre: puella magi madoka magica(be warned... episode 3)
God I love every intro, but Sailor Stars is SO dang good. Moonlight densetsu is so iconic and beautiful, and Sailor Star song really feels so powerful, sad, hopeful, full of love, and more. It fits the final season of the show SO well and I couldn’t imagine the final “fight” without it.
I recently rewatched the entire sailor stars arc, and it hits so different after watching it as an adult. The moment I realised that the audience knows that a certain someone is already dead, while she's still trying to tell them about things going on at the start of every episode is just heart wrenching.
What an incredible reaction video omg. Sailor Moon has been a huge part of my life growing up and it always makes me smile when someone discovers it or rediscovers it for the first time. The songs are so good, and there’s so many more within the show that are just as awesome
XD The song for sure grows on you. Def a classic, and it's fun to think about how the creator of HxH is married to the creator of Sailor Moon and then you're here just being like 'the op is the same?' It's a classic and a lot of people's nostalgia.
Im a big fan of 80s and 90s music! For more old anime that has amazing music i highly recommend reacting to the openings on Maison Ikkoku or/and Kimagure orange Road =)
You need to watch Ranma 1/2 openings and endings!
There are parts of some of those that aren't safe for TH-cam
@@HungerTheLetsPLay Literally no more naked looking than the Sailor Moon openings when transforming.
@@Krawbs Watch OP 2, the very beginning has nips.
@@HungerTheLetsPLay Literally barely nips on Ranma in a bath.
@@Krawbs Barely Nips is still nips. Not safe for YT. Even if the bots miss it, all it takes is for someone to report it, and it's a GL strike. If he wants to edit it out, that's fine, but he should still have that information.
This is THE old school classic Magical Girl show. Started in the late 80's and 90's.
I lovee sailor moon songs, the usual is pretty iconic but the last one "sailor stars" always make me cry, this is nostalgic......😢😢😢😢❤
I’m a huge fan of anime but never got far into Sailor Moon, I don’t think you’d like it 😂😂 but it’s nice to see you react to the classics. I bet this song got stuck in your head 😅
Pleaaaase check out Kuroko No Basket openings soon! Suggesting them because I genuinely think you’ll like them~ /rock on/
How old is Sailor Moon? It's literally the basis that all magical girl anime took inspiration.
If you haven't already, Fire Force or Darling in the Franxx
Sailor Moon was my first anime. And the first show that introduced me to Japan in general.
Back in the 90s, Sailor Moon was everyone's introduction to anime fandom. At least here in Germany. But we got 3 totally different Openings. They where more like Eurodance-Music or Techno, wich was very popular in Germany back than.
Sailor Moon is still one of the few anime, that I love and appreciate to this day and no episode goes by in in which I don't start crying without end, out of pure nostalgia and drama. That's why i no longer watch it. I get too emotional.
Without Sailor Moon, i wouldn't be an Animefan at all. Thank you Takeuchi Naoko for defining who i am today.
And thank you for reacting :)
I Love Sailor Moon so much!! You should also react to Sailor Moon Eternal - Chainon, both the song and mv are good!
Sailor Moon is that anime that as kids boys denied ever watching, but we did, and we were hooked. The anime has a very basic structure, it's like a "monster of the week" with a Big Bad per season. So, it's repetitive, but the characters are what drives the show. Usagi (the protagonist) is one of the funniest girls in anime, and her visual gags are always top notch. You can try and watch it, but be ready for it to feel repetitive and corny, like super corny. Still, Moonlight Densetsu (opening theme) is a banger!
Please check out some other old-school anime openings! :) Would love to see Inuyasha or Digimon! Sailor moon was my childhood. Went to a Catholic school and got in trouble for dressing up as Sailor moon for halloween when I was in kindergarten 🤣
it's been 8-9 years since i last saw it :)) it's one of my childhood animes :))
