This particular scene is sweet and nostalgic for those of us who were young American kids at the time, but the DiC dub as a whole was absolutely terrible. There's a reason it was part of the final generation of anime English localizations that changed the OST, character names, and cultural references from the original Japanese. It was also overly censored compared to later dubs, although those still suffered from homophobic censorship and a fear of displaying violence
This but also video games on the SNES and Sega Genesis. I once saw an ad for a PS1 Sailor Moon game in an issue of GamePro magazine back in the 90s, but I never saw it released. : (
I cried watching this. This episode gave me chills, she transformed in front of Darian and I remember the goosebumps I had. So sad how time has flown now I’m 32 wishing I could be a kid again 😢
When I was little, I thought, "How would they NOT know who the MOON princess was? Wouldn't it be Sailor MOON?" I really thought Luna was playing dumb the whole time 🤣🤣🤣 Such nostalgia. . .
Absolutely love Jennifer Cihi’s songs in this, I was so lucky to meet her at a convention. She sang all the songs and chatted with us about her career and experience singing for Sailor Moon. 10/10 experience, so happy I went
I'm 55 and I had never heard of Sailor Moon until I was 25 and I was working at a car-rental agency and the dispatcher, who was in her mid 40's would always say how she couldn't wait for work to end so she could go home and eat, have a few beers and, I'm sure smoke up and watch Sailor Moon. I was already into Anime, and I had never shared that with her, so when she kept telling that I should watch it? I have been hooked ever sense!
@@jamesgoodwin4543 They sure did! Personally I feel like DIC gave it more emotion in their music. But their music will always be in my head when watching the first 3 seasons they did. No matter, I will always love Sailor Moon.
This was such an emotional moment in Sailor Moon. And also when she defeated the enemies as well. I loved this show so much back in the day. I remember these voice overs as opposed to the voice overs nowadays for Sailor Moon.
The guitar at 1:42-1:54 is my favorite part. Something about it is just so somber and fits exactly with the story beat of Usagi remembering her past self as Princess Serenity but at a terrible cost is captured so perfectly.
I love the music in this version of Sailor Moon. I have seen this version, the new dubbed version, and the Japanese version with English subs. I love them all, but I like this version the most, even though it's not perfectly translated.
I was obsessed with sailor moon as a kid and still am. I will always remember going to blockbuster with my dad so he can rent every sailor moon VHS they had in stock. Good times
I remember getting up very early to watch this probably 6am cause only time could watch it without anyone turning channel over then watched it on + cause it was that good
I watched it when I was 7 and my mom set the tv timer to 630am as I sleep in the living room and soon as it comes on I watched it when I got ready for school
YouThis was/is my favorite scene. Not only is she a warrior, shes also a Princess. This has ties to Greek Gods, Goddess, and Christianity. So much truth in this manga. 😍
This scene has one of the MOST confusing character placement, He starts off infront of her, then he turns around screaming, then turns around again, then she turns around and he's behind her. The butchery is strong LOL
Remember that Queen Serenity wiped their memories with Cosmic Moon Power (Moon Healing Escalation in the original anime). They had no recollection of their past appearances.
loved this as a kid and even after all this time this scene makes me cry with how emotional it is and you gotta lol at the senshi {scouts} and mau {moon cats} reacts to usagi {serena} being the princess i mean artemis's 'it's about time' line is so deadpan it's amusing
Found an English Dubbed Japanese version of the series, and so many changes are in it (mostly violence and thinking about what is suitable for kids) but there is at least 5 - 7 changes in just this scene.
I can't ever hate the DIC dub of Sailor Moon. It's got nostalgia, camp, amazing songs that still hold up, attempted erasure of queerness that we still latched on to... really what's not to love?
"Accept the things you cannot change, have the courage to change the thing you can and have the wisdom to know the difference." The serenity prayer shows sign of things that happening in each arcs of the Manga, Crystal, Eternal and Cosmos of consequence of mistakes but can change things by making things right with courage and wisdom with the power of love they can do anything fixing things making things better than before to make a difference defeat them and save the world and universe by not only restore everything but making thing better than before with new powers to became stronger than ever have friend you love be reborn and awaken from revives from sleep with courage and wisdom with the power of love can triumph over evil Sailor Moon says no matter what.
I remember watching this as a kid. My older brother used to make fun of me for liking Sailor Moon so I would watch it under a blanket covering the tv and me 🤣
Speedy Cerviché: (Tears in his eyes) Aw gee, I'm getting all choked up. Polly Esther: (Smiling) It's the most romantic thing I've ever heard! Guido Anchovy: (While his eyes are closed) I gotta admit, this whole thing has even got me feeling all warm and fuzzy. Narrator: (Off-Screen) Hey guys, I don't want to seem insensitive but we've got an episode to wrap up. Can we find out who the real princess of the moon is, please? Guido, Polly & Speedy: (Angry) Oh, put a sock in it!
even in the saddest and serious moment, DIC's dialogues were never serious and always threw hilarious lines and shades... I don't get what they were thinking ....
So this is more of what my mom grew up with? The voice acting is great, but the beginning of the scene seemed so silly Tux: *just got stabbed* Moon: WATCH OUUUTTTT
I always loved this part. My favorite bit is Sailor Moon/Serena/Usagi transforming into Princess Serena/Serenity at the height of the music. I always loved the reveal, and I know the music is far from the original Japanese and later English dub, and maybe it's nostalgia blinding me a little but I will always prefer this version and this song. I like Sailor Moon Crystal's scene, but I like this one better. Though, I think the momentary animation that appears just before we see her change into the princess, is a little odd looking. I guess it's supposed to be a stylized representation of her dress changing idk.
This is the DIC English dub version and is without a doubt the ABSOLUTE BEST version there ever is.
This is the best version

@pixarlamp337 just the most nostalgic. Haha yes the Dic one was kinda weird but still. Like making Uranus and Neptune cousins was just weird.
@pixarlamp337 and with terrible music
Agreed
I’m 38 and I loved this 23 years ago. I’m moonie for life ❤
Ditto 😊
Me 36 and 22 years ago.
I’ll be 38 on 9/9 and I love this show 🎉
Same but I’m 32!
The English version of this scene is everything !!! 😭😭😭
Sailor moon was my only source of happiness as a child
Oooohhhh why?
@@AD-jq7ow don't pry
Mine also 💗
This but also video games on the SNES and Sega Genesis. I once saw an ad for a PS1 Sailor Moon game in an issue of GamePro magazine back in the 90s, but I never saw it released. : (
awe I feel that 💖

Sailor Mars saying "Who would've thought?" Always made me chuckle.
ikr? It's like she was breaking the 4th wall because the moon princess identity was like the worst kept secret of the series...
@@JamieWilkinson1983 Yes! Totally was! Exactly! LOL
@@JamieWilkinson1983Can we talk about the first time she transforms in front of Darien and he is just over here flabbergasted, bamboozled even.
When I was little, I thought, "How would they NOT know who the MOON princess was? Wouldn't it be Sailor MOON?" I really thought Luna was playing dumb the whole time 🤣🤣🤣
Such nostalgia. . .
All the VIz-ears can hate on the DiC dub all they want,but MAN the music was FIRE 🔥🔥🔥😎😎
Yes!! I’m getting used to the VIZ version, but they knew what they were doing with these songs in DIC version!😂
Im 37 and this still makes me cry. The DiC songs just hit hard. Its like im a child again watching this before school in the mid 90$
My god the music was amazing in the old episodes it hits different.
I always loved when Mercury says: "SHE'S the moon princess!" And Mars: Who've thought! lol🤣
Even in the saddest moment, she had to throw a bit of shade. lmao
Dude right?? I felt that snark from a mile away.
Raye should NEVER underestimate Serena
My mom said she was hating lol mind you this was in like 97😂
I have been looking for this version all over just to see this scene
I have the vhs tape 🥲
Absolutely love Jennifer Cihi’s songs in this, I was so lucky to meet her at a convention. She sang all the songs and chatted with us about her career and experience singing for Sailor Moon. 10/10 experience, so happy I went
I miss those episodes with those voice actors! I wish I could find the dvd's for this Dubbed version
This scene still gives goosebumps.
I'm 55 and I had never heard of Sailor Moon until I was 25 and I was working at a car-rental agency and the dispatcher, who was in her mid 40's would always say how she couldn't wait for work to end so she could go home and eat, have a few beers and, I'm sure smoke up and watch Sailor Moon.

Me feeling 14 again. I loved the DIC versions.
Love the Dic version as well. Viz sucks big time. Dic had the best soundtracks as well.
@@jamesgoodwin4543 They sure did! Personally I feel like DIC gave it more emotion in their music. But their music will always be in my head when watching the first 3 seasons they did. No matter, I will always love Sailor Moon.
@@md3713 Indeed. 😊
Made me feel I'm 9 again
I'm in kindergarten again just watching it😢 I miss how DiC had her
This made me cry so much when I first saw it.
Me too, and then i had to head to the bus stop
DiC Sailor Moon is FOREVER 😢😢😢 Their adaption makes Sailor Moon feel like it's real!!!
This was such an emotional moment in Sailor Moon. And also when she defeated the enemies as well. I loved this show so much back in the day. I remember these voice overs as opposed to the voice overs nowadays for Sailor Moon.
Before this scene, I liked the show ok. This is the moment that made me fall in love with it.
I’m just now noticing that sailor moon hair and the shape of her headband forms a heart.
The guitar at 1:42-1:54 is my favorite part. Something about it is just so somber and fits exactly with the story beat of Usagi remembering her past self as Princess Serenity but at a terrible cost is captured so perfectly.
Exactly! And the chorus kicking in with the transformation from scout to princess…just…chefs kiss!
The electric guitar from 1:55 to 2:02 is where it’s at
listen to Poser by Grace Vanderwaal and tell me if it doesnt remind you of this part
Forever and always, I love this show. Thank you DIC.
YOU REACHED THE DEEPEST PART INSDE MY HEART
I had this episode on VHS and I am living for the nostalgia right now
I love the music in this version of Sailor Moon. I have seen this version, the new dubbed version, and the Japanese version with English subs. I love them all, but I like this version the most, even though it's not perfectly translated.
This gives me chills and I haven’t even watched this dub in full before. That song…man…
I remember being a kid n loving how she became the moon princess! The memories!
I was obsessed with sailor moon as a kid and still am. I will always remember going to blockbuster with my dad so he can rent every sailor moon VHS they had in stock. Good times
Yeah who would of thought sailor moon was the moon princess
*raise hand* Just turned 39 2 days ago... still into this song :P
Awesome! You single?
I used to watch this in high school I love this anime
I love Luna's voice in these versions
I love sailor moon so much!! I had every single movie and episode
I sent the song to my fiancee and she loved the song so much too.
I remember getting up very early to watch this probably 6am cause only time could watch it without anyone turning channel over then watched it on + cause it was that good
I remember getting up that early to watch Sailor Moon also 🌙
yup... 5.30am EST to watch it... i was always exhausted at school on those days, but it was so worth it.
I watched it when I was 7 and my mom set the tv timer to 630am as I sleep in the living room and soon as it comes on I watched it when I got ready for school
YouThis was/is my favorite scene. Not only is she a warrior, shes also a Princess. This has ties to Greek Gods, Goddess, and Christianity. So much truth in this manga. 😍
Don’t forget it’s the rainbow crystals are the charkas
@@hippiepisces9745 I also think they might have something to do with the 7 deadly sins. But yes that as well. ❤️☺️
@@ma-lu3088 the charkas make more sense because of the Crystal becoming the lotus 🪷 flower In the later seasons
mar's snarky comment still cracks me up, "who'd have thought?"
I always loved these moments in the episodes. The music and reveal.
This scene has one of the MOST confusing character placement, He starts off infront of her, then he turns around screaming, then turns around again, then she turns around and he's behind her. The butchery is strong LOL
still remembering this on 2023
But like… how did they not know the princess was her. They look exactly alike
Remember that Queen Serenity wiped their memories with Cosmic Moon Power (Moon Healing Escalation in the original anime). They had no recollection of their past appearances.
Right! 😂
Shhh 🤫 hush now lol

The Xbox, Sailor Moon and PlayStation are my only source of childhood an happiness
As much as The Loud House, Lady LovelyLocks, SpongeBob SquarePants and Winx Club (the 4Kids version)
DiC Sailor Moon and their cartoons were my sources
Never erased this gem. Please.
the english dubs voice for luna kills me- ⚰
Even with this dub, no one ever can replicate sailor moon and dragol ball
Found an English Dubbed Japanese version of the series, and so many changes are in it (mostly violence and thinking about what is suitable for kids) but there is at least 5 - 7 changes in just this scene.
Still emotional damage for me 2023. So good grown adult now
you should see the og instead
Princess Serenity is so beautiful
This scene change my life forever
I haven't seen this in years. 🥰
La plus belle histoire d amour ❤ avec la chanson only love woaaa mais tellement triste 💔💔💔💔 j espere les revoir dans cette version 😔
This show made me believe in true love.
PLEASE I NEED THE DIC eng dub version back 😢😢😢
I miss watching Sailor Moon. Might start watching it after I finish watching InuYasha.
Awesome memories
Perfect music
I can't ever hate the DIC dub of Sailor Moon. It's got nostalgia, camp, amazing songs that still hold up, attempted erasure of queerness that we still latched on to... really what's not to love?
This voice acting is on par with Megamans "WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOOOAAAAARRRRR"
They went soulful on this shit with these songs!😂😂
39 and STILL LOVE this series.

The DiC dub had hit after hit on its soundtrack
I just got done watching this scene last night and it still gets me choked up and I am 37 years old
I like the english one better and it's ABSOLUTE AWESOME but I wish that CZcams can bring back the regular English Sailor Moon.
Go watch cartoons and you can see it their
This was my childhood! Little me was like “I don’t want a love unless it’s like Serena and Darien!!!”
❤Epic.❤
