thank you to "Claudia" for providing us with an
incredible synopsis of the seventh episode of the new live action Sailor Moon
series. Pictures will be updated with the synopsis when I get them so be sure
to check back.
With episode 7, we’re back to the last episodes reviews. This weeks review starts with Mako’s vision of Sailormoon telling her she’s not alone. This time the review is narrated by Sailormoon, who appears in a little moonshaped space at the bottom corner of the screen. ‘Mako, who transfered to our Middle School turned out to be Sailorjupiter. The four senshi are finally together!’ Sailormoon flashes the ‘V’ sign and claps, followed by a clip of Luna telling the senshi they have to combine their powers and search for the Princess and the Maboroshi no Ginzuisho. Sailormoon continues, ‘Luna thinks that the ally of Justice Sailor V might be the Princess. That’s be great if it was true, but personally, I’m more interested in finding out Tuxedo Kamen’s true identity.’ She admits, to scenes of the two of them together.
(Opening)
Tokyo at night. ‘Hold it right there!’ Sailormoon yells, chasing after a youma which looks like a big bundle of straw. She fights with it, kicking and spinning, dodging as it swipes at her with its sword. She manages to kick the sword away, and hits it with her ‘Moon Tiara Boomarang’ It falls to the ground, a faceless bunch of straw. ‘Huh?’ Sailormoon gasps, as Luna yells, ‘Sailormoon, behind you!’ Sailormoon spins around to she the real youma standing there. She stares, horrified, and then covers her
face with her hands to protect it. Dozens of huge metal pins come flying at her. But the bars are knocked away by a cane, and she looks up to see Tuxedo Kamen standing in front of her. ‘Tuxedo Kamen!’ She cries. As he turns to look at her, the youma chucks a pin at him, which slices through the shoulder of his tuxedo. He clutches at his shoulder in pain. Sailormoon, eyes wide, rusn towards him. The youma runs to grab its sword. Sailormoon throws one of the pins at it, but it only grazes it and the youma runs away. ‘Hold it!’ She yells, but just stands there, as I guess it’s already gone. ‘It got away.’ She says, pouting. She turns to look for Tux, but he is nowhere to be seen. She runs to the ledge and sees him running down the hall. Sailormoon vaults herself over the railing and takes after him, running through the midnight streets. Suddenly she hears a voice call out. ‘Don’t follow him!’ Sailormoon looks around frantically, and she sees Sailor V standing on a ledge near her. ‘Sailor V!’ She exclaims. Luna watches as well. Sailormoon runs over to here and looks up at her, as Sailor V says, ‘Don’t get close to him. No matter what.’ Sailormoon is shocked. ‘Huh? What do you mean?’ ‘He’s dangerous.’ Sailor V replies, looking away. ‘Think of him as your enemy.’ ‘That can’t be!’ Sailormoon cries. Sailor V just closes her eyes and presses her lips together. ‘Sailor V!’ Both Sailor V and Sailormoon turn to Luna. ‘You’re the princess, aren’t you?’ Sailor V just looks at Luna for a long moment, and then runs off, disappearing into the night. Sailormoon looks around.
‘Tuxedo Kamen an enemy…’ She murmurs. ‘What does she mean?’
The Dark Kingdom. The grey haired general we saw last episode is playing the piano, reading from eerie looking fluorescent marbleized sheet music.
‘Sailor V?’ Queen Beryl exclaims.
‘Yes.’ Says Nephrite. ‘Zoisite says she may be the Princess.’
‘That hateful brat…’ Beryl looks wrathful. ‘If that is true, tell Zoisite to finish her off right away.’
‘To leave such an important job to him….that’s not really to my liking…’ Nephrite protests.
‘Why not?’
‘He works of his own initiative too freely, and…to use me as a messenger for his news to you, Your Majesty! ‘ Nephrite is indignant.
‘Bear it.’ Beryl tells him. ‘It’s best to let him do as he likes. You,’ She waves a hand magnanimously at Nephrite. ‘will continue as you have been, searching for the Maboroshi no Ginzuisho.’
Besides Nephrite, Jadeite looks away sharply.
Jadeite stands in the echoing stone hallway, and Nephrite walks over to him. ‘Jadeite! So, her majesty Beryl won’t even deign speak to you anymore. She said that she was fed up with you.’ He chuckles cruelly. ‘Nephrite!’ Jadiete advances on him, glaring. ‘I will collect human energy to give to Beryl, without fail! You just shut up and search for the Maboroshi no Ginzuisho!’ Nephrite looks away, and smiles coldly. In the other room, Zoisite is still playing the piano, his eyes closed. ‘Sailor V…’ He thinks. ‘I’m getting closer to you….’
Usagi stands outside the Crown Karaoke Center. ‘Tuxedo Kamen my enemy?’ She asks herself, looking dejected. ‘But…if he was my enemy, be wouldn’t go saving me all the time, would he?’ She walks down the stairs. ‘That’s it! He’s just can’t be my enemy!’ She decides. She comes to a stop outside the door, when she sees Motoki folding up a familiar looking tuxedo jacket with a rip on the shoulder. ‘Huh? That’s….’ She remembers Tuxedo Kamen’s tux getting ripped in that exact spot. ‘No way….’ She whispers, her eyes wide. She walks into the karaoke place. ‘Welcome!’ Motoki says, putting the tuxedo jacket away, and looks at her inquisitively. Usagi stares at him. ‘He’s Tuxedo Kamen…?’ She thinks. The turtle squeaks. ‘I can’t believe it. He was this close all along…’

Dat's
a big-a meatball! |
‘Hmm…Tuxedo Kamen an enemy, huh?’ Mako muses. The four girls are in the secret karaoke room. ‘Sailor V seemed to know everything.’ Luna says. ‘So…Sailor V is the princess?’ Ami asks. ‘Luna, who is this princess?’ Rei asks. ‘Yes, when the time has come, I’ll tell you the important story of who the Princess and the senshi are.’ Luna tells them. Usagi glances at the ceiling. ‘ I can’t tell them….’
‘…who Tuxedo Kamen is….’ She thinks, now in bed. ‘Usagi-chan, you haven’t fallen in love with Tuxedo Kamen, have you?’ Luna asks. ‘Huh?’ Usagi sits up quickly. ‘Of course not! It’s just that he’s saved me so many times, so I was interested in him.’
‘ I don’t think you should get near him.’ Luna warns.
‘I know!’ Usagi says, lying back down. Sailor V’s voice echoes in her head. ‘Think of him as the enemy.’ Usagi shakes her head, pulling the blanks up. ‘He’s not! I just know it!’ She pulls them all the way over her head, remembering Luna asking if she was in love with him. ‘I…don’t know…’ She buries her face in the blankets.
Something flies over the moon.
The Crown Game Center. ‘Welcome!’ Motoki says. When Usagi just stares at him, he adds. ‘Something wrong?’ She shakes her head, and bows. ‘Good Afternoon!’ Usagi smiled shyly, and takes out a bag of something. ‘This is for food for your turtle.’ She says. Motoki smiles. ‘Wow! Thanks! He’ll be so happy!’ ‘It was no problem!’ Usagi protests with a big smile. Motoki pets the turtle. ‘Isn’t that great?’ He asks it. ‘Um…’ Usagi asks, before he can get into turtle mode. ‘Can I ask your name?’ Motoki looks surprised. ‘Me?’ He straightens up. ‘I’m Furuhata Motoki. You’re Usagi-chan, right? I hear your friends calling you that.’ Usagi smiles her big smile. ‘Oh, right.’ Motoki gets out some tickets. ‘As a thanks for the turtle food. These are tickets to an amusement park. I got them awhile ago but forgot, and they’re only good until tomorrow. Would you like to come with me?’ ‘What?’ Usagi looks up. ‘I’m inviting some friends, and well, the more the merrier, right?’ ‘That’s fine. I mean, I’ll….’ Usagi smiles. ‘I’ll go!’
‘And…why did I have to come along?’ Rei asks, annoyed. They are at the amusement park.
‘Well, Ami-chan said she wanted to concentrate on researching Sailor V, and I told Mokoki-kun that the three of us would come.’ Usagi explains.
‘Motoki-kun huh?’ Mako nudges her. Usagi blushes.
‘What, is that what this is about?’ Rei seems even more annoyed.
‘Er, no…I…’ Usagi looks away and scratchs her head, embarrassed. Suddenly her expression changes to one of indignation.
‘Ahhh!’
Standing there is Mamoru. His look shifts into one of disgust and distain. ‘You again?’ He asks, frowning, but walking over to them.
‘What are you doing here?!’ Usagi cries.
‘Huh? Usagi-chan, you guys know Mamoru?’ Motoki asks, jogging over.
‘Motoki-kun…he’s your friend?’ Usagi asks.
‘Yeah, Chiba Mamoru, he’s my classmate.’ Motoki explains. Mamoru is still frowning.
‘Oh…’
Mako whispers, ‘You know him?’
Usagi shakes her head. ‘No, he’s just this annoying guy I run into sometimes.’
‘Oh!’ Motoki hands Mamoru a white paper bag, with the tuxedo jacket inside. ‘My mom fixed this for you.’
‘Thanks.’ Mamoru says, taking the bag.
‘You must have a pretty weird part time job if you have wear that.’ Motoki remarks.
Usagi pouts, glaring at Mamoru. ‘I finally get my first date with Tuxedo Kamen, and he has to come along?’ She thinks.
‘Oh, here’s the last person! Takai-kun!’ Motoki beckons over a boy in a striped shirt wearing a furry turtle shaped backpack. ‘This is my friend, Takai-kun, who loves turtles as much as I do.’ Motoki explains.
The 6 get into pairs by doing rocks paper scissors. Mako ends up with Motoki, Rei with Takai-kun, and…Usagi with Mamoru. Mako noticed Usagi’s looking glum, and says, ‘I think I’ll go with someone I don’t already know, since it’s so unsual.’ Mako says, going over to Mamoru. Usagi grins, and goes over to Motoki, who smiles at her and say, ‘Well, let’s go, Usagi-chan!’ They walk off, and Usagi flashes a smile at Mako. ‘Thanks Mako-chan!’ She thinks. Mako smiles back.
‘Should’ve figured.’ Mamoru comments.
‘It looks like that’s what’s up today.’ Mako explains.
‘I don’t really care.’ Mamoru tells her. ‘Motoki forced me to come, anyway.’ He starts walking, and looks back at her. ‘We might as well ride it. There’s no point in just watching.’ He says.
‘Oh, right.’ Mako nods uncomfortably and follows him.
Rei looks bewildered, and then turns to Takai, and takes a step towards him. ‘Um…. ‘ She begins. But Takai begins to hiccip and Rei jumps.
‘Being with women makes me hiccup.’ He says apologetically. Rei just looks away, at a loss.
Usagi and Motoki are riding a roller coaster. ‘I can’t believe I’m together with Tuxedo Kamen!’ Usagi thinks, as Motoki screams and grins besides her. ‘He acts pretty different, but that’s just to hide his true identity, right?’
‘Here we go, Usagi-chan!’ Screams Motoki, as the coaster plunges down the hill. They scream.
As the others ride another ride, Rei and Takai watch from the ground, Rei patting his back to try to stop the hiccups.
‘Wait a moment please.’ Takai says, and sits down. He takes out a container with a turtle on it, containing lemons. ‘Lemons work the best on hiccups.’ He confides to an incredulous looking Rei.
The other two pairs are out on the lake in canoes. Mako and Mamoru’s boat speeds past Usagi’s. Mako is rowing. Mamoru looks back at Usagi, and then turns to Mako. ‘Want me to row for a little bit?’ He asks, looking at her as if she’s nuts.
‘Nah, I’m fine!’ Mako says cheerfully.
Usagi trails her hand in the water. Suddenly Motoki says, ‘Look a turtle!’ and points. ‘It’s so cute!’ Motoki crows. Usagi smiles. ‘Oh yeah.’ She says. She thinks, ‘The Turtle and the Rabbit (Usagi), I guess it is destiny!’ She smiles bashfully. ‘What do you like, Usagi-chan?’ Motoki asks. Usagi looks up, and then away. ‘Um…tuxedos, I guess.’ She says after a moment, grinning at him. ‘Huh?’ ‘Just kidding!’ Usagi says quickly, and they laugh. ‘ I shouldn’t have said that.’ Usagi thinks. ‘Because it’s secret after all. ‘ Motoki tells her that he’ll buy her ice cream, because the ice cream here is really good. ‘Really?’ Usagi cries, her face lighting up. ‘I’m so happy!’ But then she watches him, the smile gone. ‘I wonder why it is…that even though I’m with Tuxedo Kamen, my heart isn’t beating fast at all?’ She wonders to herself, as she watches Motoki row. He smiles at her, and she thinks, ‘No, that can’t be! I’ve got to stir things up!’. Usagi splashes water at Motoki with a grin, and the laugh.

Later, Usagi comes to a halt in front of a certain ride. ‘It’s a maze!’ She exclaims happily. ‘Let’s go it!!’ Motoki looks at her in fear, and tries to hang back but Mako pushes him inside.
‘Wow, it looks like so much fun!’ Usagi says, as the four of them look around. ‘Usagi-chan.’ Motoki looks worried. ‘Do you have a hankerchief?’ Usagi gets out her hankerchief, which is white with big pink hearts on it. They both hold on to one end of it. ‘Usagi-chan, don’t get separated from me, ok?’ Motoki tells her, and they begin to walk through the maze. Soon, Motoki runs face first into a glass wall, and gets thrown back. ‘Are you ok?’ Usagi asks. ‘Yeah, I’m fine.’ He tells her, but when they go to reach out to each other, there is a glass wall between them. They knock on it. ‘What is this?!’ Then Motoki suggests they go around and meet, but both turn the same direction, without running in to each other. They walk down the halls of the maze alone. Mako and Mamoru have also gotten separated.
Meanwhile, Rei is still sitting outside with Takai, who is now covering his nostrils with his thumbs, assuring her that it will stop his hiccups. Rei rolls her eyes, and gets up, sighing. Suddenly, she feels something, and looks around frantically, finally catching sight of the youma from earlier. She takes off running after it.
Back in the maze, Usagi and Mamoru have managed to find their way into the same room. ‘You…where’s Motoki?’ He asks sharply. ‘We got separated.’ Usagi says defensively. Mamoru looks out the doorway of their room. ‘Motoki hates this kind of thing!’ He tells her.
Mako comes upon Motoki, who has sunk to his knees. ‘Hey, are you ok?’ she ask, kneeling besides him.
‘Well, what about Mako-chan?’ Usagi protests. ‘It’s so low to leave a girl all alone like that!’
‘It’s better than abandoning the guy you like!’ Mamoru retorts.
‘What? That’s none of your business!’ Usagi says, turning away. Mamoru goes to grab her hankerchief, but decides to grab her hand instead.
‘What are you doing?’ She asks, turning to him.
‘If any more of us get separated we’ll never get out of here.’ He says, pulling her with him. Usagi watches his back as they walk. ‘Eww, why is being with him making my heart beat so fast?’ She thinks.
Rei has followed the youma to an outdoor arena with many colored seats, and clowns giving out balloons, but the Youma is nowhere in sight. ‘I must have imagined it.’ She says, and turns to walk away. Takai has followed her, and is about to run over with a smile when the Youma taps him on the back. Rei looks up to see the balloons flying through the air. Takai, possessed by the Youma, has stolen the clowns energy. ‘Takai-san!’ Rei cries. But he just smiles evilly, and continues to hiccup. ‘A Youma!’ Rei exclaims. ‘Mars Power….’ But is cut off sharply as Youma!Takai comes over and steals her energy, which flows into the turtle shaped backpack, which is swollen with energy. Rei sinks to the ground. The Youma runs off after the people who have all run away, and Rei gets out her cell phone and contacts Mako. Mako is sitting outside the maze, with Motoki, who is gripping the bars of the railing and looking very sick. Mako runs off. Then she contacts Usagi, who is still in the maze. She looks around for Mamoru, who is nowhere to be seen. ‘It’s ok now right?’ She says. ‘Moon Prism Power!’ Mamoru turns at the sound of her voice, and watches her, reflected in the many mirrored walls. ‘Make up!’ Usagi transforms, and Mamoru watches in shock. Sailormoon runs down the hall, and Mamoru stares after her retreating reflection. ‘It can’t be. She’s….’

Sorry,
I ran out. |
Sailormoon and Jupiter run over to Rei, who is still on the ground. ‘How mean…’ Jupiter says. Luna comes over, and tells them that the people’s life energy as been drained. Just then Youma!Takai walks out, stealing the energy from a boy. Rei points to the backpack. ‘That backpack….’ She croaks out. The Youma separates from Takai, who falls to the ground. It picks up the bag and starts to run. Jupiter flips her way in front of it, and Sailormoon flips over her shoulders, boosting herself over onto the other side of the Youma. ‘Give back everyone’s energy!’ Sailormoon yells. They fight. The senshi manage to beat the youma down to the ground. Jupiter does ‘Supreme Thunder’ and Sailormoon starts ‘Moon Twilight Flash’. The Youma that has been hit by Jupiter’s attack falls to the ground, a lifeless faceless bundle of straw, and Sailormoon finishes her attack at the real Youma which is on the other side of them. It explodes in a shower of golden light. ‘Even I learn from experience.’ She says with a smile. ‘You rock.’ Jupiter says. ‘Usagi!’ They high five. ‘Where’s the backpack?’ Sailormoon asks. ‘It’s over there!’ Jupiter points, and they run over to it. A male voice warns, ‘Don’t touch it!’ It’s Jadeite. They stare at him. ‘A Youma?’ Jupiter begins. ‘No…he’s not…’ She corrects herself in an awed voice. ‘I’m Jadeite, one of the four generals in the service of her Majesty Quieen Beryl.’ Jadeite tells them. ‘Queen Beryl….’ Gasps Luna from her hiding place behind the wall. ‘Sailor Senshi!’ Jadeite growls. ‘It’s all because of you!’ He blasts them with energy. They cover their faces with their arms, but Tuxedo Kamen rushes in, shielding them. Jadeite stares at him.
Tuxedo Kamen holds off the energy for a while, but then Jadeite pushes it harder at him, and it knocks him to the ground, a hole burnt through his glove revealing a bloody wound. ‘Tuxedo Kamen!’ Sailormoon rushes over to him. ‘Don’t worry about me!’ He yells, as Jadeite starts to make his getaway. Sailormoon does ‘Moon Tiara Boomerang’ and it hits the backpack, freeing the energy, which flows back into everyone. Jadeite throws the backpack to the ground. ‘Sailor Senshi….I’ll destroy you, no matter what I do!’ He says angrily.
Sailormoon notices Tuxedo Kamen is starting to walk away, holding his injured hand. She runs after him. He takes off his glove and flexes his bloodied hand. ‘Tuxedo Kamen, wait!’ Sailormoon calls. He stops, and turns back. She runs up and ties her pink hankerchief on his hand. ‘This is it.’ She thinks. ‘This beating of my heart.’ He watches her. ‘Thank you.’ He says. ‘That’s ok. I’m sorry you got hurt because of me.’ She says, looking up at him. ‘But, why do you always save me?’ He turns away. ‘Good question.’ He begins to walk away. ‘ I don’t even know myself.’ Sailormoon watches him walk away, and thinks, ‘And me….why am I always so….?’ ‘Sailormoon!’ She looks up to see Sailor V standing above, watching her. ‘Sailor V!’ She exclaims. ‘Did you forget my warning?’ Sailor V asks. ‘No! But! I can’t stay away from Tuxedo Kamen! I don’t know why, but I….’ Sailormoon protests. ‘I think I….’ She trails off, pressing her lips together. Sailor V looks aways. ‘So destiny can’t be changed then.’ She murmers sadly. ‘Huh?’ Sailormoon asks. But Sailor V has disappeared.
Takai-kun’s gets up; his hiccups have stopped.
‘You thought he was Tuxedo Kamen?’ Rei asks incredulously. The three girls stand at the
entrance to the Maze House, watching Motoki who is still clutching the railing. ‘Yeah, but he doesn’t have a wound; it looks like I was wrong.’ Usagi says. ‘Sheesh, what a fuss you caused over such a stupid misconception.’ Rei sighs. Mako goes over to her. ‘It wasn’t stupid!’ She says sharply. ‘It was.’ Rei says as Mako glares at her. Usagi looks at the sky. ‘Tuxedo Kamen…’ She thinks. ‘Who are you?’
Mamoru stops, and looks at the pink hankerchief on his hand. ‘She’s…Sailormoon….’ He remembers floating in the bubble with Sailormoon, and Usagi laughing happily with Motoki. He walks away from the amusement park, taking Usagi’s hankerchief off his hand and putting it in his pocket.
NEXT EP: Looks like another original. Rei and Mako fight and Mako saves Rei when Rei get’s kidnapped (?).
