Sailor Moon Crystal Should’ve Been a Space Opera

[@alittlefruitfairy]

I’d love to see the character’s actually achieve their original dreams but not in the way they could have expected. Sailor Mercury would go into the medical field and save lives the way she originally intended, but she’d do so across the galaxy instead of just on Earth. Sailor Jupiter would settle down on one of the planets they’re reviving and get married to an alien having a family owned space bakery.

[@matildalitsey143]

I'm writing a fanfiction where they build their dreams up but also find other hobbies and dreams the like, such as Makoto learning she likes passionate, very romantic writing and Rei learning she likes sports such as volleyball and soccer.

Fan Fact, in the manga the reason why The entire universe Is dead it's because of Sailor Galaxya, She literaly did the Undertale genocide, killing anyone She saw. By the end of the manga Sailor Moon Is literaly the only Person Alive a side for a few others.

[@launch4]

I love the idea of a Sailor Moon space opera. Only thing I would do would be to massively play up the old school mythology level epicness of the setting to the most extreme possible extent, showing Usagi and co as practically gods walking the earth, and the fall of the moon kingdom as a kind of Ragnarok like event. Basically Sailor Moon 40,000.

Given the fact that each senshi from Earth is a planetary princess in her own right, the idea of them going out to recolonize the galaxies and reclaim their own kingdoms would be an awesome concept. The Dream arc movies made it clear that they are royals as much as Usagi and Chibiusa, so why not use that? Why not even find descendants of the inhabitants of the planetary kingdoms? I mean, how emotional would it be if Mercury found actual Mercurians on some distant asteroid who fled because of Metalia's war? The Sailor V manga even established a character who had been from Venus and had him fall in love with Princess Minako in Silver Millennium. Show me some Plutonians from the ancient past who were searching for their missing princess all these centuries! Really, the possibilities are endless.

[@matildalitsey143]

Writing a fanfiction for Sailor Moon, noted.

[@Takumi_Did_Nothing_Wrong]

I want to see what happens to Usagi's normal Earth family and normal Earth friends. Is Usagi still friends with Naru? Are Ikuko, Kenji, and Shingo considered apart of the royal family? I know they become out-of-focus in later arcs, but I think it would be out-of-character for Usagi to completely abandon them. I think it would be interesting to see their reactions to finding out Usagi's secret identity and the consequences that come from it. Naru and Ikuko would probably be surprised but nonetheless carefree and accepting about it, Shingo would probably be shocked and maybe a little grossed out that the superhero he admires is actually his klutzy sister, and her dad would most likely be his usual overprotective dad self and freak out over it.

[@psychotophatcat]

We get a very small glimpse of their connections to the normal friends and family in one arc of the manga, but that's about it. It always bugged me too.

[@indigowendigo8165]

"Shingo would probably be shocked and maybe a little grossed out that the superhero he admires is actually his klutzy sister". LOL, sounds just like Chibiusa but it's Usagi's real present day self versus her future mama. ^^; That totally sounds like what Shingo's reaction would be, I'm betting on that too. XD

[@JBabyLeather]

Yes to this

[@matildalitsey143]

I'm writing a fanfiction series that gets more in-depth about that, only problem is it's for the 90s version and some of the plot points in the original are changed, such as in the original they live their lives on their planets but in my version they instead stay on earth for at least a century then live on their home planets. Another thing changed is that Chibiusa is younger, at least 700, as I am an American and Usagi and Mamoru's Reincarnations are not old enough in Japan. It is illegal.

[@docileventriloquist]

[@Harukurochan]

Honestly, as someone who grew up with only the “Sailor Moon” anime, I was still super hyped for “Crystal”, because I bought the manga when it was recently re-released in English and loved it a lot. And I will go to bat for season three of “Crystal”; I think that was the only season worth watching, and “Eternal” seems very promising. As for what I would like to see: I’d honestly love to read or watch something Ghibli-esque, where the focus is on magical girls once they’ve become middle-aged, examining whether they continued to pursue that path, how they support the next generation, or step away from that life altogether. Also, more stuff with the Outer Senshi, specifically Hotaru having a great time with her three loving parents, and Chibiusa as her girlfriend, would be great.

[@starkid4299]

agreed!

[@Pollicina_db]

Isn't Chibiusa with Helios?

[@Harukurochan]

@@Pollicina_db No, it’s just implied that they might get together in the future. Plus, there is *plenty* of (sub)text for Chibiusa and Hotaru’s relationship, including the scene where Mamoru feels like he’s “giving her away”, like a father on his daughter’s wedding day, when she runs to see Hotaru.

[@WobblesandBean]

[@kyoyameganebereznoff]

I would totally watch a slice of life anime about the Sailor Moon characters.

[@WonderousSmiles]

I dunno... My wishes for Sailor Moon is a bit more basic. I just wanted something that combined the best of the manga with the best of the 90s anime. While fleshing out the characters as stand alone more often. I'm a sucker for redemption and romance. So what I'd really want is for team Beryl to have happy endings. I want a chance for them to remember their pasts and reconnect with Momoru again. I want Zosite x Kunsite and Nephrite x Naru to have their happy endings, damn it! But if not that, then a direct sequel to Stars. Where the girls are college aged and we actually see Usagi's goddess accession in action. Because I can't be the only one wondering how we got from point A to point Z, haha

Hey, just wanted to say I hope all the criticism of your last video hasn’t discouraged you. I’m not a sailor moon fan, partly just cus it wasn’t on my radar when I had the time to watch old long running shounen, but the idea of sailor moon as a space opera does intrigue me

[@spoopybat7880]

"Is anyone's favorite episode when they're traveling from place to place?" *Star Trek fan sweats profusely* Seriously though I adore Sailor Moon and I think a thing exploring the scouts as individuals (or smaller teams) would've been great. I remember the few times in the original anime we got see them as Makoto or Rei instead of just Jupiter and Mars. While they would be doing important work you could also see how they've grown and who they've become outside of their role as guardians. Doubly so for Chibi Usa, her whole character arc is her relationship with Usagi as a person (and god) and the insecurity she feels. Give me an older Chibi Usa who's outside of that shadow. She has Hotaru and Helios and they're helping her forge her own path as a hero. Give them character development, please.

Twist: When Usagi gets sucked back in time, she actually does save the Moon Kingdom. Realizing her mistake too late, SHE destroys the Moon Kingdom herself in a desperate attempt to preserve the future and her friends. She is the looming threat in the future, warped and hardened by the disaster she unwittingly created. Since she is the threat, that's why all the redeemable baddies were haunting Japan trying to kill/capture her. Now, they must band with the scouts as she tries to stop her other self from ever venturing back in time - only to see the 'good Usagi' be taken away. Let 'bad Usagi' unpack the horrifying truth of the destruction she has unintentionally caused and now the scouts & allies must learn to understand, forgive, and help redeem the 'bad Usagi'.

Personally, I would love to see a sequel series where we have new guardians that are children of the original ones, that would probably mean that Chibi-Usa would be the princess to protect, though I also ship Makoto x Ami so they'd probably have to get their own biological child/ren through other means. Actually played Rei's daughter in a roleplay some years back, that was pretty fun, though I also have my own OC senshi who's powers relate to ice/snow.

I don’t think she would be equipped, and while Mamoru could help, he was only ever a Prince. He’s probably got just as much experience as her. It would also sweeten the destined conclusion, if Usagi had to really work and figure things out before she became God-Queen Of The Universe.

Hi! I just became a follower and fan. This is the second video of yours I’ve watched and I love this. I totally would LOVE to see this! You’re even touching on many things that I always wanted from these characters! Keep up the amazing work! 😸

[@kawaii-pigeon]

I had some mixed feelings about your previous videos but this feels like it would definitely be your thing! Talking about indulgent rewrites. It's very relaxing and I like it a lot! Awesome job ✨

Since Sailor Cosmos has canonically recreated the universe, all Sailor Moon Media is cannon. Have a nice day.

[@jackie7988]

I'm always happy to see a new video by you!

[@poprocks6576]

This feels like someone trying to make a sequel to both the manga and anime who hasn’t read the manga

[@buglamps1290]

Oh hey imagine if all of the versions of Usagi- Princess serenity, Usagi, neo queen serenity, and sailor cosmos all just, suddenly had to work together as a team? Like First of all, Princess Serenity would absolutely be the naive one. Usagi(I’d have her be at eternal sailor moon stage) would be the somewhat matured but still childish one who has a good head on her shoulders due to her experience, Neo Queen Serenity would be like the mom of the group, and Cosmos would be the depressed emo one who’s quiet and mysterious. Idk why or how they’d all end up together but maybe some evil time monster showed up and for some reason all the Usagis had to combine their power in order to defeat it, but there were still monsters of the week leading up to the big fight. But at the climax of the big battle, they all combined themselves into their ultimate form, like a fusion of every Usagi, creating a really neat and fun transformation. And basically if there was a follow up to this story, every time Usagi needed to defeat a really scary big bad, she would become that transformation- maybe that would even be her transformation, since that’s typically the formula

I love this so much. thank you for making this.

AGHHH THE NEW ART IS SO CUTE I LOVE

[@woolpuppy]

I personally disagree that Crystal was all bad, the adaption of the Death Busters arc was really lovely. A reinvisioning would breathe life into the franchise. I'd like to see the colonization of the galaxy with the rebirth of all the senshi, with the inners on their respective planets for a while. We could get a chance to see how resources and culture builds a society on a fundamental level. The Witches 5 are not anime only and deserve better. Professor Tomoe is only redeemable in the 90s anime. In the source material he's still a bastard. The main reason why I don't see a reenvision happening is I feel Takeuchi is borderline retired from that body of work. The author had worked herself nearly to death during the original Nakayoshi run. She is not present at Sailor Moon fan events, and if you ask me, she has earned the right to take space or work on other projects. Spin offs could be created by Toei Animation, but it may be Takeuchi's wishes to adapt only. So who knows. Edit: Hey, we're back!

[@woolpuppy]

@Erwin Lii What part are you referring to? They've covered a lot of what I've mentioned xD;

[@juliasoag]

There are a LOT of cool concepts in this video, so many that i don't think it would all fit into an anime Honestly i think it would work way better as a game with a rich history and many many side missons than as a very long anime, just imagine: a game where you could play as one of the main sailors and rebuild a planet while also building a relantionship with side characters and in the end all get linked into a bigger plot !! Idk you but i would play the shit out of this fictional action rpg with build-your-own-world mechanics :) (Especially if it offered the option to make my own sailor and play as them, thats would be so cool !!)

[@professionalairhead5642]

Love your new outfit. Dungarees are THE BEST!

[@little_abacus2063]

The other sailor scouts had A LOT of character development and chemistry between them in the first version.

[@georgiprenatt8270]

Your ideas are so good! You should write fanfiction! As for me, I’d make it a magical realism series with the earth humans slowly adjusting to the presence of magic and aliens living among them. And instead of a monster-of-the-week format, it would be various disasters in which the sailor guardians learn to use their powers for healing instead of combat.

[@turner15]

I’m pretty sure Sailor Moon has the same teleportation hubs as Steven Universe because SU took a lot of inspiration from anime. I think they might’ve literally been copying it.

[@Mars_over_seer]

1:30 That line made me think of Doctor Who. I’ve been watching that series and had something where side characters would branch out into their own series. Like Captain Jack and the adventure of Sarah Jane, so when they did return they don’t feel like second notes since they’ve been having their own adventures.

[@kieranczyzyk9064]

all. yes. good ideas. i want! that!! iterate on it! Like how TMNT is with all it's different versions! I'd looove for Sailor Moon lore to get remixed more often (not necessarily expanded b/c yeah. you covered that lol). idk nothing much to add here besides I LIKE THIS and OH NO ANOTHER WEBCOMIC IDEA

[@ANTI-YFGA_AND-UTTP]

Fun fact: chibiusa couldn't see helios until she was a full teen wich would be imposibe to meet him. And when a sailor gaurdian has a daughter, their sailor crystal will pass down to the and they wont have the power to transform again

[@Professor_POVFH]

I’ve literally never watched sailor moon and I enjoyed every second of this conjecture and I have no Idea what’s going on

[@StoneCresent]

The real life discovery of new planets both within and beyond the solar system since 1992 would certainly provide ample inspiration to introduce new senshis and story arcs.

[@coleperez3612]

I would have loved the space opera thing but I would have liked to see each inner senshi with their season one guard. They were supposed to be in a relationship with the guards of earth in the past but they never get brought back. It would be interesting to see if they could or would rekindle those old romances or even friendships.

[@anthonyoliveira818]

I think the sailors don't need any ships to travel into space.. I mean, their eternal forms can fly with their wings (actually this happens in the manga)

[@dragonetafireball]

I was hyped for Sailor Moon Crystal then never watched it again after the first episode because that’s just how my brain works sometimes.

[@mafuyu22]

This is just spectacular 🤩 tysm for taking the time to make this video

[@chaosdestructionlove]

This video made me super nostalgic for the old anime, i didnt understand a lot of it when i initially seen it bc i was so young. But imagining some of the villains being redeemed and the scouts living independent lives from usagi.... God that'd be so nice. But i think im tired of the laser focus on one character type stories these days. If we can spend a reasonable amount of time with the mc but also good bits and pieces with supporting cast members that much more fulfilling.

[@jeremiahlroy8196]

I love this Idea! Also, hi I am new, stumbled upon your Utena video earlier today and fell in love with your commentary. :)
