VizвЂ™s new dub makes sure to give everyone very youthful voices, including Luna and Artemis. But any Sailor Moon fan also knows what Luna looks like this when she takes human form and the voice makes zero sense. I can understand the need for that stereotypical вЂњolder figureвЂќ to guide our girls. What do I mean? Well the obvious mistake in the classic dub was giving Luna the voice of an exasperated grandma. Ah, classic 90вЂ™s names, I am not glad to see you gone.ДЄnother thing fixed are the вЂњagedвЂќ voices of some of the cast. Darrien is now Mamoru and Andrew is once again Motoki. Usagi, Rei, Ami, Minako, and Makoto are all with us on this one. The American-ized names of the Sailor Senshi have been scrapped and now in English we can call them by their proper titles. One of the key changesВ about the new dub that I donвЂ™t think anyone has issue with is the changing of the names. I will say though, Sailor MoonвЂ™s early American years werenвЂ™t awful! When it fell into the hands of Pioneer Entertainment (who later became Geneon) the Sailor Moon movies that were distributedВ were relatively uncut. Already this is a huge bonus from the original.

Viz has given us all a change to see the series the way it was meant to be. Still, they are responsible for the вЂњcousinsвЂќ fiasco that sums up Haruka and MichiruвЂ™s relationship. Original Japanese image on top and below is DiCвЂ™s editsД¬loverway Inc, who handled the dub for Sailor S and Super, allowed for more of the cultural references and more faithful to the source material.

No longer do we have to substitute Japanese culture for something more Western and no longer is animeВ being dumbed downВ as something just for kids. Anime has grown so much since DiC originally got its hands on Sailor Moon. This is one of the things IвЂ™m most excited about rewatching Sailor Moon. ItвЂ™s great to see the classic show (uncut) in English. Now that the new dub has been out for a while it is time for the big question to be answered, new dub vs. In 2014, with the announcement of the new Sailor Moon Crystal being streamed to Hulu there was also the news of a new dub for the classic series by Viz Media as well as streaming of the original Japanese version!ДЇans rejoiced! Before this announcement we were forced to find the episodes on Youtube or other websites where the quality was still stuck in the 90вЂ™s.
