Before we begin, people have been debating whether there were ending
credits to the show. Claudia (who saw the show on the air in Japan) tells me,
"I don't think there was and ending song. I don't even remember there being ending credits. The show ended rather abruptly."
There's a chance this could be a fluke for the first episode; we'll confirm
with episode 2.
The official live
action Sailor Moon page has updated with a new description for episode 2,
and we've got it here translated for you. Thanks for this heads up go to: <Andrea
Wilkie> (who also has a very detailed episode 1 synopsis so go take a
look), Taka J, and Julian G. As always, quote this where-ever you'd like, just
say where it came from.
Having met an unusual stuffed cat named Luna, Tsukino Usagi has taken on the mantle of Sailor Moon and begun her fight against the dark organization. However, Usagi still remains a rather clumsy and
stress-free- that is to say- normal, middle school student. Yet since Usagi is so unreliable, Luna has decided she has no choice but to find other senshi to assist her.
Even though the earth is drawing near a crisis of unmatched proportion, due to the activities of
Sailor Moon's evil enemies, the hot topic around town are the subject tests being performed at Usagi's school. [Most likely practice tests for high
school.] The overall grades for the entire school are being pulled up by a single
person... Mizuno Ami (who also happens to be in the same class as Usagi.)
Unfortunately, even though Ami gets the highest grades at the school, her strict
[literally: "not loose"] personality causes the other students to stay away from her. Even at lunch,
Ami sits completely alone. Usagi begins to be a little interested in her...
While walking home one day, Usagi meets Ami by pure coincidence. But... why is Luna in her hands? How did Ami end up with Luna? And strangest of all... Ami's change in attitude. Seeing Ami wipe the dust off Luna, and
Ami talking to Luna gently, Usagi decides in her heart that she should be friends with her. "You may be able to make friends yet!" This
is a new experience for Ami, and her heart becomes aflutter.
Just this once, Usagi decides to loan out her beloved Idol's MD; in exchange for Ami agreeing to eat lunch with her. As she gets referred to as "Ami-chan" for the first time by Usagi, hope begins to grow in Ami's heart...
Sounds like a good time will be had by all. Now then, there are some
incredibly interesting behind-the-scenes updates at <Toei's
site>. (Featuring, at the very top a most hilarious phrase in Engrish,
"Fly Me to the Sailor Moon." That's great enough to be a Sera
Myu song!!) Look forward to these pages being translated within the next few
days.
So, what's this? You want to know what I mean by "Episode 1
picture reenactment?" Well that's quite simple! You see SereCindra
has spent more time than is actually considered humane putting together a
pictorial of the first episode. If you don't have the capability to see the
show, this is probably the next best thing out there, so go <there>
at once! And a huge thanks to Bill
Heineman for helping to host this arsenal of pictures. Go visit his page
too! Right now!
