I felt so much sympathy for Lita when this episode first aired. She became my favorite after knowing her story. Now watching this clip, and hearing the Rainy Day Song again, I feel the exact same way for her as I did 19 years ago.
When you hear the whole story in japanese... it punches in the feels. The reason Makoto/Lita is so good at domestic chores is because she does them all herself, as she lives alone. Both her parents were killed in a plane crash. It's one of the reasons she transferred schools and people thought she was a delinquent The only real clue you ever get to see she has issues with planes is once where she flinches because a plane is flying overhead. (She seems to get over this later after becoming Jupiter as she joins the other girls on a private plane to meet the Starlights :D)
I prefer the censorship to be honest. A show marketed to kids didn't need all of the pervy stuff that only dirty old Japanese men seem to need to be entertained.
For those who are curious as to why Lita is giving blood to Ken, Ken got knocked into a concrete ditch by a lion from the Negaverse and lost half of his blood volume. Being the great friend she is, Lita decided to give blood to him.
This makes me want to cry for two reasons: 1) The scene's heart-felt moments and 2) because I miss days when I watched this show. Those were good times.
Legitimately y'all it's been, what, like twenty-five years and I FINALLY made it to this episode in the "better" English dub and I am CRUSHED they used another song!!!
Makoto/Lita is forever my favorite of all the scouts, I actually didn't like her at first but it's moments like this which helped give me a broader perspective. Yeah, seeing her crying saddens my heart each time.
this song still hits like a depression dump truck. Its been what 20? 21 years for me. I seen this episode when it first aired and it was my fav for decades now
This scene was really good and the song was also great too. Lita is my favorite character of sailor moon. Even though the dic dub of sailor moon had censorship, edits and changed scenes, it still had a great soundtrack. And it's sad that lita's friend only appeared in this episode and after that he's never mentioned again.
I'm a guy. I have a wonderful, beautiful girlfriend. I like to consider myself a man. I have a BS in Homeland Security and I have hand built all my rifles/pistols. I take Operator courses at least 3 times a year and yet... Sailor Moon was my first brush with Anime and it's still one of my favs... My "masculine guy" friends can talk crap about me but I love the soundtrack to the "crappy" American dub and this anime... As a kid I would have given anything to be Lita's rainy day man...
Screw toxic masculinity, yeah we love tough guys, but... give us a man who knows how to take care of a woman, like Ken in this song, he loved Lita, but never took advantage of her
Who wouldn't want to be her rainy day man? A real tomboy who would beat up any boy that stepped to her or her friends, but she was also so very feminine ~ with her rose earrings and love of cooking meals for her crushes. Very strong outwardly and emotionally fragile inside. She was the most complex of the inners to me ^_^ It sounds like SM made a positive impact on you tbh!! Couldn't be anything cooler than a man who so openly adores his woman, builds guns, trains to fight terrorists and yet all while listening to the Saillor Moon english ost soundtrack in the background. ^_^ I officially stan.
Sailor Moon was my favourite as a kid and I got bullied for it. Grew up to learn its loved world wide and moments like this have stuck in my mind for over a decade x
It's with a breaking heart that I now listen to this. I just got the news yesterday, that my Rainy Day Man died. He introduced me to Sailor Moon... He called my Ami-chan and he was Minako-chan. This song represented our relationship...
I love Sailor Moon, especially the classic one from the 90s. It's so funny and romantic. Sadly, I still haven't seen the latest reboot anime yet. I keep hearing that it's super good. Just gotta give it a chance.
Oh man, this really brings memories back. I forget how I found Sailor Moon but it was my first anime exposure. I was in 7th grade and I remember I would watch episodes on UPN right before going to school. Funny how I still remember the melody and lyrics after all these years.
When younger, we had a satellite dish. Middle of the night, I'd get all the next weeks episodes one after the other. Along with Teknoman! These two are still my benchmark.
I'm an original Japanese purist of Sailor Moon. However, as much as I hated a lot of what the DiC English dub did, this scene has always stood out as actually BETTER than the original. The original song that played (Makoto's R season image song) was nice, but this was much more dynamic and it was in English so it had much more impact. The only thing is lyrics-wise, it doesn't really do much - it emphasizes a character (Ken) who never appears again and it's about the rain in that scene only.
There's way more build-up and mentioning of "the guy who broke her heart" in the viz dub and yet you get to this episode and honestly, the viz dub falls flat. The song is just not powerful enough, this one is so much better. It really conveys the feeling of how she felt and the fact someone existed who cared she felt so horrible at that time.
I’ve never seen the later dubs just the DIC one & the original Japanese but I gotta day I just had to listen to this one cuz I know the Japanese one is first & definitely a better version of the show but I honestly love this song.
I wanna go back to the 90s I'm tired of 2021 it's hard out here and this show in the 90s made everything so much simpler this day and age nothings the same and people forgot so much what it means to be human
I remember that bit just before this, before they were saying ‘he’ll need a transfusion right away’ and that they didn’t have enough type O and Lita said that she has type O blood, that there was a pool of blood around Ken after he’d fallen from that ledge from being attacked by the lion. I was surprised that they showed that amount of blood in the show. ^^
Everyone talked about Kenny getting put in the friend zone but: A) Maybe he’s ok with having SAILOR FRIGGIN JUPITER just as a friend. (Wouldn’t all of us?) B) If he was the kind of douchebag that was following her around with an umbrella and dropping hints that he expects something more out of it, Lita would have picked up on that and wouldn’t have such affection for him. Women don’t respect creeps like that.
Thank you 🙏🏼!! Also there could be 1000+ reasons why, like he already has a GF, he doesn’t wanna hurt Lita if she already has a BF. Maybe he’s more focused on his dreams yet treasures her as a friend. Sometimes relationships can go sour.. and you lose your only connection bc its awkward🥲
I Have absolutely NO qualms about admitting being a huge Sailor Moon fan back when it aired in the U.S., and this song has always stuck in my mind as one of my favorite parts of the whole series.
The feels. I long since lost it, but I once had this episode and many others on VHS when they first came out. I even used a boombox propped on a chair to record this song onto a cassette. Did the same thing to all the original songs. XD Along with her first henshin were some of my favorite episodes.
I honestly like elements from both versions of this song. The one in the show has some cool Charlie Burchill-esque guitar playing, and the album version lush with synths that ultimately make it sound fuller.
Laney LeBelle can anyone tell me where i can watch both the old episodes and new one online...i live in Canada..so i don't think its airing on any tv...i remember when i was 10/11 yrs old...Saliormoon was my favor..and is still my favor now...wish to watch it all over again.
This is a slightly different version than what was on the first compilation album - instead of a guitar we hear a spiky, acoustic piano…sounds like it’s from the Korg M1, which was used to oblivion in 90s pop and dance music.
Wow! Man =__D I remember when I saw this when I was 10 years old! I loved this show so much! I still do... it's a great show. Aww... Lita. "It's been like that since we were kids. He's always been there for me no matter what." That's the way to be.
lita are you blind ken obviously loves you gosh!!! ..., if he's always there for you and when you need him, yeah you may think of him of a best friend but he obviously likes you more then a bestfriend
There are things I like about the English version though I like the Japanese version a LOT better. This song and the scene is an example of what I really like about the english dub
@Moonlightrealgirl uhm...you do know that a "rainy day" refers to a bad period in one's life "save for a rainy day". He is her "Rainy Day Man" the person she goes to when things are bad....it's kinda obvious what the song means
It’s canon he dumped her because she was taller and stronger then him. I buy that. I’ve know. Dudes that insecure. Still, dude didn’t appreciate how good he had it. She’s better off.
Man...this is so sad..I LOVED this show..the music, the story, each girl's life story and background and how they bond..crazy how good japanese animes are..but they take the time to make good music and create good stories for them...not like the cartoons Nickelodeon and Cartoon network put out, except Avatar the last airbender...that's pretty much the best US anime ive seen
@StrawburryNoodlez No...no matter when I watch this episode I cry...then proceed to planning on ways to beat the crap out of the horrible guy who left her in the rain.
19 years and I still remember all the lyrics and harmonies. Somethings really stick with you.
galinda91 ....we old now😣
Same
If you are old I am ancient lol
They sure do
@@RecoveringChristian Only if we feel old my sister!
jesus im 39 and this still gives me chills like it did when i was in 8th grade
I feel this bro
Same
Me too 😢
I would wake up at 6am everyday to watch and record this show on VHS. Makoto/Lita was always my favorite and I still hum this song to myself.
I felt so much sympathy for Lita when this episode first aired. She became my favorite after knowing her story. Now watching this clip, and hearing the Rainy Day Song again, I feel the exact same way for her as I did 19 years ago.

Diss song is amaizing song i Love diss song so wer i lising to the song i craynig Gu Gud 💔💔💔💔💔✨🌙🌙🌙😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The early dubs did a pretty good job with some of the musical sequences.
Amen to that!
I remember the DIC dub. For all its flaws and its heavy censorship, I still love it as it was my gateway into the world of anime.
This was the same with me.
Same ❤
I prefer the censorship to be honest. A show marketed to kids didn't need all of the pervy stuff that only dirty old Japanese men seem to need to be entertained.
Reading the comments I can't believe it's been 19 years. I was 3 when this aired.
Actually I was 2. I keep thinking I'm a year older for some reason.
You can hate DIC for the hamfisted edits and the rest of the mangling they did, but you gotta give them respect for nailing the musical scenes.
For those who are curious as to why Lita is giving blood to Ken, Ken got knocked into a concrete ditch by a lion from the Negaverse and lost half of his blood volume. Being the great friend she is, Lita decided to give blood to him.
Lita was always my favorite sailor scout.
This makes me want to cry for two reasons: 1) The scene's heart-felt moments and 2) because I miss days when I watched this show. Those were good times.
Legitimately y'all it's been, what, like twenty-five years and I FINALLY made it to this episode in the "better" English dub and I am CRUSHED they used another song!!!
It's the original song in the new English dub.
Lita's crying at 1:05 touches my heart like no other. I felt upset for her there :'(
Well I think it' supposed to show us that for all that tough and strong exterior she has Lita still can be vulnerable.
Same since I have been through a break up too
Lita's my favorite character
Lita Kino
Samsung Galaxy TabPro S
Makoto/Lita is forever my favorite of all the scouts, I actually didn't like her at first but it's moments like this which helped give me a broader perspective. Yeah, seeing her crying saddens my heart each time.

First off thank you for your service. Second screw them . Ur amazing to show ur emotions and its ok. ...I am a thirty something and love this song
I would love for you to be my rainy day man😇

Lita/Makoto was always my favorite. She had spunk and fire. Feisty as hell!
I came across this by accident after not having heard this song in probably 20 years and somehow I still know all the words by heart.
you never forget your first. Thank you, Makoto.
JUPITER!!!!! my favourite girl :D
Yeah, Her and Rei go from 0-60 in seconds when pissed off! 😂😭
Sailor Moon was my favourite as a kid and I got bullied for it. Grew up to learn its loved world wide and moments like this have stuck in my mind for over a decade x
Loved watching this in the late 90's and still love watching it today :)
I know *That* feel all too well
this is good quality for a 15 YEAR OLD VIDEO
It’s actually 16, TH-cam is a year behind
It's with a breaking heart that I now listen to this. I just got the news yesterday, that my Rainy Day Man died. He introduced me to Sailor Moon... He called my Ami-chan and he was Minako-chan. This song represented our relationship...
watched this episode two days ago
still singing this in my head
totally
It is kind of sad that even though you only see Ken once, and although he is Lita's best friend, she falls for Andrew instead. *sigh*
I love Sailor Moon, especially the classic one from the 90s. It's so funny and romantic. Sadly, I still haven't seen the latest reboot anime yet. I keep hearing that it's super good. Just gotta give it a chance.
I'm a guy and this made me cry I feel sad for lita when she cries and the boy runs away! She's my favorite scout of all time!

her expressions to the tears in her eyes just made my heart ache
I have seen this song like 7 times and every time I cry I really can't help it
I always loved the musical bits in this show.
poor lita :( i know how feel when a guy break your heart
My all-time favourite scene
This still makes me cry...Whenever the bgm breaks out into a vocal track, something either epic or heart-breaking is going down.
i remember this episode and I remember loving this song
I Have absolutely NO qualms about admitting being a huge Sailor Moon fan back when it aired in the U.S., and this song has always stuck in my mind as one of my favorite parts of the whole series.
I take it that was lita's ex-boyfriend she kept talking about.
One of the best damn songs in the English dub!
i L-O-V-E this song!! I used to have the CD when i was little.
I Love this song
Lita’s ex-boyfriend is in serious need of a haircut.
Yes, this is season two. This particular episode is the same episode where the Moonlight Knight is introduced.
Reminds me of my friend who lives far away. He was always there for me whenever I needed him
Love this song. Reminds me of people I used to know..
The feels. I long since lost it, but I once had this episode and many others on VHS when they first came out. I even used a boombox propped on a chair to record this song onto a cassette. Did the same thing to all the original songs. XD

GOD i have such a HUGE crush on lita i wish i was there to comfort her
Just watching this clip right after Sailor Moon Crystal episode 5...
It's actually pretty hard to go back to this old stuff XD
Really? I have a hard time watching the new stuff ;_;
KoalaNoMarch Same here. The new stuff makes me want to watch the old stuff even more.

Thank u so much for the site.....it's made my day.
Love the live action version of this

Such a wonderful song T__T....
0:06 wtf old scary witch voice lol
Oh my God this was my favorite episode of all time when I was little. I prayed every time Sailor Moon came on that it would be this episode.
Rainy Day Girl - from the first that we met....
I've given everything..
Just to seeee - you --- again...
Sailor Jupiter has always been my favorite!
This was the first ever Sailor Jupiter video on TH-cam, not gonna lie.
I love this video, it made me cry
Ken being friend-zoned since 1992
@Tsuyame15 I mean… Uranus.. and Neptune. Also Friends / cousins 😉😏
We only know what they’ll show us!!

LOL i remember as a kid. I would always Cry with this song!! No joke. Sailor moon rocks. I own all The seasons and Episodes in english and Japanese.
I thought this sounded like a song Mew Mew Power would make. I can’t believe it’s been 26 years ever since this aired...
even as a kid this scene had me so emotional
I cannot believe I just found this video and saw that this was uploaded since 2005 and is known as the first TH-cam videos 😮😮😮
This is beautiful! And I ship it!
he was there to protect her if she needed him like a true friend should.
this still hits 👌
lita are you blind ken obviously loves you gosh!!! ..., if he's always there for you and when you need him, yeah you may think of him of a best friend but he obviously likes you more then a bestfriend

he doesn't deserve her!
i'mma be real here
If I had a gf like Mako, there would be no breakup. Only flowers.
It’s canon he dumped her because she was taller and stronger then him.
I buy that. I’ve know. Dudes that insecure. Still, dude didn’t appreciate how good he had it. She’s better off.
