Sailor Moon: The Complete First Season

It should have been clearer that this is not a region that will work in the UK, I haven’t actually been able to watch it without buying a region free Blu-ray player.

unplayable in uk, avoid, returned without fuss which is good.

This rating isn't really a comment on the quality of the show or the prouct itself, mainly as I never actually got to watch it. As mentioned in the top-rated review, this product is Region A locked and therefore won't play on my UK Blu-Ray player. I wish I had listened to them! Complete waste of my money and really poor of Amazon to be selling it on the UK store.

Would've been useful to include in the description that the DVD is region A locked and can't be watched anywhere outside of America

Region A locked. Would be helpful in the description.

Good.

Fantastic addition to my collection

Mucha gente piensa que esto solo es un re-empaque de la versión que lanzó VIZ en el 2014, pero no, esta versión usa la calidad de los Masters oficiales de Toei, cosa que VIZ sí usó, pero solo para Super S y Stars (temporadas 4 - 5), las temporadas 1 - 3 tenía una sobre saturación de color, un elevado contraste, ghosting y, en general, una calidad de imagen mediocre. El problema aquí, y razón por la cual no le doy 5 estrellas, es que, esta edición no incluye nada destacable en cuanto a empaque, no trae la caja de cartón que la versión del 2014 sí, no incluye folleto, solo incluye su slip cover. En cuanto a extras, solo tiene algunas entrevistas adicionales con el casting de doblaje en inglés, y, es todo. Espero que también lancen Sailor Moon R y Sailor Moon S usando los masters oficiales, el único problema es que yo compré los 2 Boxsets de Sailor Moon S con la horrible calidad de VIZ de aquel entonces, lo que significaría volver a gastar en la misma temporada para verla en HD. Esta presentación es de 6 discos, son los episodios 1 - 46, es decir, la primera temporada completa. Imagen: 1080p (HD) Relación de aspecto: 4:3 (Pantalla cuadrada) Se puede ajustar a 16:9 sin perder detalle. Subtítulos: Inglés (sigo sin entender por qué no incluyen en español, pero bueno) Idioma: Japonés, Inglés (mismo doblaje de VIZ) Sonido: 2.0 estéreo

La serie es excelente, pero la caja llegó completamente rota

I grew up in the 90s and have known of Sailor Moon pretty much all my life, but I never really watched it because I was around 7-9yrs old when it was being broadcast here in the USA, and to me it was a girls show and being young the few times I did watch it, I didn't know what was going on because I wasn't used to shows with overarching stories(same with Dragon Ball Z, I can remember trying to watch it and being dropped right in the middle of Goku Vs. Frieza Arc and being so confused). I can remember not being able to tell Usagi and Minako apart, and having no idea what was going on, so I never really watched more than a snippet or two. Now in 2024 I am watching it for the first time. I love art and drawing, so I love watching animated TV shows, and really don't watch TV otherwise. Through the first 6 or so episodes of Sailor Moon I was not impressed, it was the same dull cookie cutter episode after another with poorly done battles. Then Ami got introduced and having more than just Usagi, who really couldn't do much for the show on her own, it started getting better despite the episodes still following the same script. After Rei was introduced it got more interesting, until finally Mako and Minako joined the group. With everyone present the interactions began to become more interesting, and slowly a more significant plot began to emerge. To be clear if you expect to see battles which is kind of what I expected going in then you will be disappointed. The battles/fight scenes are lame... that's just the truth. It is the same cut scenes recycled over and over, it's basic and boring. The actual story is where it will shine, and if you like 90s animation(like I do) you will also enjoy it. I can say I find their boy crazy antics really funny, and I know I would not have thought so in the 90s or as a teen, so I think I'm watching this at the right time. There is some pretty dark stuff in here as well which was kinda surprising because I guess I just had a picture in my head what to expect. I enjoy more of the dialog and relationships, and seeing them in their human form is more entertaining. The older anime has a feel to it that newer anime just seem to be lacking. I think Mako is my favorite, and I like Minako, Rei, and Ami, and Usagi is my least favorite despite liking her just fine. The picture quality is significantly better than the DVD release.
