If You Could Change Something...

If you could change something (It can be more than one thing) about any adaptation of Sailor Moon (manga, anime, live action, musicals) what would it be? Something sort of specific. Something you didn't like or felt could be better.

Ooh, where to begin. UsagiLaugh

Make anime MarsAttack more like her manga personality (disliking men, serious, soldier-worthy, intimidating, graceful)...

Um, improve fashion in the anime... The manga was OK, but the anime made me ill at times... Especially a certain jacket... TuxedoKamenFly

The colour-thing that we've fixed with Usagi in the anime... make the red more pink, and the blue less mercury-coloured... and the hair less VenusPose coloured...

Oh, and something kind of against canon, very odd for me, but I'd kind of like UranusPose and NeptuneWin to be older... They already seem too mature for 20 year olds, let alone 16 year olds... kind of too sure of themselves and everything (I know they're not really, they have their issues, but they're too non-awkward for teenagers, really...) But only make them like, 18-or so...

...By the way, I'm totally not suggesting these things should be changed for the game or anything, it's just what I personally think would work better...

PGSM I would just like to have better monsters... they were a bit... odd at times (ceramic monster, anyone?)... and the fighting is of course totally non-realistic, though it suited the actresses and was easier to do... And fighting in all movies/serials tends to be unrealistic... especially melee fighting...

But nothing else, I think... I'm quite critical, but I still love SM exactly how it is without these changes UsagiLaugh

Can't say anything about musicals, as I haven't seen them JupiterBlush

I agree with ALL your ideas. I HATE Usagi's anime hair color. And Rei is so much more elegant in the manga. In the anime she's almost...I wanna say catty. MarsAttack

During the transition from manga to anime, I wish they hadn't made Sailor Venus dumb as a ROCK. She almost always had this very cool air about her, and it's what made me like her. Especially during her SuperS arc when she wasn't able to transform anymore, which made her question her abilities as the leader.

Speaking of SuperS, there needed to be more of the Amazon Soldiers between SuperS and stars. Also, they should have kept the manga upgrades instead of the ones from Pegasus.

WHILE I'M STILL GOING, all of the girls needed more attacks in the anime.

Totally. Oh, and actually giving the girls there Eternal forms would have been nice.

Totally agree there, Daio...

But as well as more attacks, they should just be more creative with them! 'Oh, monster, lets fight a bit, use each of our scripted attacks and he dies yay!! UsagiHappy ' is a bit... dull after a while... even though seeing them do their attacks is cool anyway... But it'd be cool if like, there was some massive pipe above an enemy, or something, and MercuryAttack froze it, then MarsAttack blasted it open, before JupiterConfused zapped the water, electrocuting the enemy! How cool would that be!

More strategy, I guess, is what I'd like...

Especially from VenusPose to show she actually deserves being leader...

I guess that's what the anime tended to feel like - the senshi didn't actually deserve all their perks, 'cos they were made so darn ditzy and, as you almost said, Circe, catty...

I tried really hard to think of things, but I only came up with 2 things...

1. I wanted more of the Shittenou. They just fizzed out after the first season. I really liked that the Myus brought them back sometimes (which I have YET to see one of those though xD ), but I wish they'd be good. I liked in PGSM when Kunzite was a normal person at first, when Nephrite was human afterward, and that despite being brought back by Beryl, Zoicite was was still good. I also liked that Another Story used them, too (but still not as much as I'd hoped). So my point is... More Shittenou, plz lol

2. I was REALLY interested in the Animamates and where they came from. I wanted to know more about their planets, there princess'/leaders, themselves back on their own planets. I know they had to kill one of their own senshi pals to live, so I always wanted to know how that happened with each, and what their relationships were. So... More Animamates, plz xD

I agree with all abovementioned points!

also, what I've often felt like I wanted to change from the Musicals is the plot where teh girls plan to leave usagi all alone and chase their carrear dreams all of a sudden. It's disloyal, weird, not logical and totally NOT GONNA HAPPEN! It would never come to theat in the manga, where the BOND between the girls are pictured as stronger than in the anime and myus. PGSM handles it better.

Watch it and be amazed. Its in the 1994 Usagi - Ai no Senshi e no Michi and the dracula myu from 200 "Shin / Henshin - Super Senshi e no Michi Last Dracul Jokyoku"

Mind you, the dracula myus are still awesome despite that certain plot-thread, they develope into quite a nice story later on and the songs are fighting music number 1. Love it ^^

The fukus in the last two stages are way better =) When Miuyki Kanbe and later Marina Kuroki was Sailor Moon.
But lets start some topics in the specified "Sera Myu" thread or Chains will kick our butts for going off-topic. VenusPose

Hehe. Right! I would make Usagi's hair less pee-yellow and more of a pale blond.

less filler episodes and more about the plot. also the bubble drawings?? i know it saved money but it was terrible!! I noticed they seemed to reuse the bubble drawings in the s season a lot, like during venus-chan's speech. not so cool!

I wish they'd stuck to the plot manga more, especially in SuperS and Stars. would be nice to have seen sailor cosmos a little bit and explored chibi-chibi's character and Helios' role.

in PGSM i really liked the way they took the story, but er...the graphics and luna!! gack!
