    DiC's Sailor Moon Syndication Promotional Tape
    This tape was sent to TV stations to pitch Sailor Moon as The Next Big Thing.
    It's a horrid display of shameless corporate advertising.
    You can tell that DiC sent out the video before any real work was done on the localization. Notice the Sailor Scout's names!! This is aweful!!
    *If you have any questions, message me (do not leave a question in comments) and I will reply to you.*

    I was watching this with my brother, QUITE a few years ago. It got to this part: "Girls will love Sailor Moon's transformation, from everyday schoolgirl to glamorous superhero." So since my brother was sitting right there, I wondered out loud, "What will boys love?" IMMEDIATELY, it goes, "Boys will love the nonstop action." And I CRACKED UP.

      This was before Sailor Moon premiered on US television syndication back in around August 1995 before the anime series made first launched in September 11, 1995 in the United States. This was the very first anime that my young brother and I saw when I was a kid from 25 years ago. If it wasn't for Sailor Moon, I weren't being here today continue watching anime as my childhood favorite hobbies. Even though there were scary human girls on Sailor Moon and other anime titles...gulp...anyway. This is the 25th anniversary of the English language dub version of Sailor Moon made its land shore to the West.

      The commercial all together shows Sailor Moon as something that is not.
      Sailor Moon is not about action (even there is action in the show).
      Sailor Moon is about human relationship, its about frienship, its about working togerther as a team.

    The reason why they’re all named differently is because these were the names that Renaissance Atlantic and Toon Makers were going to use in their half live action half cartoon American adaptation of Sailor Moon (that fans have dubbed Saban Moon) before Toei quickly shut down their proposal and handed the rights to Dic instead. Clearly their original intent was to use the names RA and TM were planning to use in their show before changing them. And hey, some names weren’t changed. Darien is still Darien and Queen Beryl is still Queen Beryl.

    As much as I despise what DiC did to the show but I will have to reluctantly give DiC credit where it's due. Believe it or not DiC actually saved us from what could have been vomit inducing and stress-induced blindness that Toon Makers was going to bring to our television. If Toon Makers had the license.... God... just... ugh.... fuck.... no.... Thank God DiC stepped in and won the license. It's either we get the travesty of DiC's version, or we would have had to wait 20 years for a decent dub, like the Viz version we have now, or longer, or not at all, and none of us wouldn't have known about the Sailor Moon that we know. The fact that DiC saved us has lead us to VIZ buying the license and giving us the amazing dubbing and honestly, I am very VERY greatful. It took for-fucking-ever but most importantly, we finally got it and the younger people at the age they are now won't have to worry about witnessing DiC's version that we saw when we were their age. Unless they choose to :p
    So DiC.... you're a fucking douche for how much you sliced up the show but at the same time you are a fucking SAVIOR!!!!!!!!!

      I agree. Think about how worse that could've been if Saban got involved with Toon Makers' version of Sailor Moon. Now I don't mind the different races on shows, but TM's pitch was just awful. Half-anime for fight scenes and half live actioned. The names were worse for the four Inner Girls. Mercury being Blue, Mars as Dana, Jupiter as Sarah and Venus as Carrie.

Sailor Moon was so much more bad ass and hardcore in the uncut version. That being said, I still have a love for the Dic version... But hooo boy, Dic's sensorship of the show to make it more "kid friendly" was pretty common in the US for anime at the time. they sort of dumbed all the shows down in the dubs on TV, haha.

I kinda of wondered what DiC would have given the other girls for last names..... Cause Cloverway gave them their Japanese ones while keeping the English first names, which caused an inconsistency with Amy's going by that dub lol.
      If I gave Serena one for example it'd probably be based on or pulled from her og last name of Tsukino. So she'd be Serena Tsuki cause that's Moon in Japanese lol. Could easily make moon related jokes with that. XD It's kinda of funny to think about.
