There are some really stupid rumors or misconceptions when it comes to Sailor Moon.
For instance, a guy in my college has tried to convice me of the following:
"Sailor Moon's name is Bunny in the Japanese version because in Japan they thought Bunny was the all-time most popular American name for a girl."
"In the Japanese version, Sailor Jupiter and Mars are lesbians."
"Sailor Pluto is a lesbian."
Facts: Sailor Moon's name is Usagi (which means Rabbit) because of the Japanese fairytale about a rabbit living on the moon. Also, if they wanted her name to be Americanized, why would they not say the American word "Bunny", instead of "Usagi" which also means rabbit?
Jupiter, Mars and Pluto are lesbians? Wrong again. I told him "I don't know what 'Japanese version' you're watching, but Mars and Jupiter were never lesbians". In every version, Makoto falls in love with Motoki at some point, plus in the anime she mentions that she sometimes misses her ex-boyfriend. As for Rei, in the anime she falls for Tuxedo Mask, but in the manga she has no interest in dating whatsoever.
When it comes to Sailor Pluto, she is never shown with a lover or crush in any version, but it is believed by many fans that she fell into unrequited love with Endymion during the days of the White Moon Kingdom.
Now granted, this guy makes up rumors about ANYTHING (he tried to tell us that Ronald McDonald is always played by a woman and that Barney is played by a lesbian - my boyfriend and I looked it up and neither are true) But when it comes to making up lies about Sailor Moon, he shouldn't try that around me. I corrected him in a heartbeat. xd
However, he's not the only one with false Sailor Moon info. I've seen many other stupid Sailor Moon rumors floating around.
Care to share any?
