kawaiibunny3 ~Alechsa~ Kaidan x3_Bunny But this show is for little kids. I just had to mention....this was a creation of the dubbers. Sailor Moon was never a show meant for little kids. Maybe junior high/upper elementary at the most, but never the little kids they always aimed it at. That was just a joke. lol Exactly. You can tell what a show is intended for by looking at the age of the main character: Sailor Moon is FOURTEEN YEARS OLD! sweatdrop She's not meant for 7 year olds, the dubbers just thought cartoon = kiddy show. They should have realized when they saw how much they needed to cut that BSSM is PG, not Y-7. DiC made the same mistake as Buena Vista, they marketed Gargoyles as Y-7... funny thing, parents complain when their seven year old witnesses a woman be shot and nearly die guess it shouldn't have beenmarketed for 7 eyar olds, huh? So Toondisney cuts that episode when it re-airs the series, and the entire first season makes NO friggin sense afterwards. Because the Y-7 mark stayed instead of just changing it. The moral of the story: Buena Vista is owned by the same parent company as DiC. They don't learn their lessons about animation quickly. actually....the sailor moon anime IS in fact intended for kids. Japanese culture is more flexible on things than Americans are, that's why there are lesbians and barbie doll nudity in it. If u watch sailor moon commercials, there are always little girls about 6 or older pushing sailor moon merchandise. (one i saw was pretty wierd...it showed this little girl going to the beach with her Luna-P ball....twas wierd...) plus the anime was done by Toei Animation...the go to animation company when kiddie anime is involved (Digimon, Bobobo, Zatch Bell) the manga is a different story, but for the anime...yeah...it's for kids...sorry... 3nodding i totally agree. everyone is usually like "sailormoon is not for kids!!!" but it really is. i believe the original target audience was anywhere from 4 years old to elementary/early middle school. and i think the fact that nearly all the merchandise, if it shows a real person on the packaging it's usually a little girl about elementary age.
as for the manga, it's a little older, but not by much. it ran in nakayoshi, which is aimed at elementary/middle school girls, so it's not all that much older...
either way, just because you don't fit into the target audience of a series doesn't mean you can't enjoy it all the same. that's one of the best things about sailormoon, imo.

x3_Bunny So, the dubbers changed the Sailor Moon theme song. To make it more English. I believe I've heard people complain about this. But I think it's sort of a good thing. I mean, I LOVE the Japanese version... But this show is for little kids. They probably would have gotten bored if they had seen something they don't understand at all. It was so fun when I was seven to sing along with it. I don't know; I think this is one of the smart decisions that the dubbers made (although they didn't make too many...) I've been wondering. I don't think they had Adult Swim when Sailor Moon aired, but since the last season was too "inappropriate," do you think it would have worked to put the last season there? Nudity, lesbians, he-shes, violence, and everything? Or would little kids be drawn to it since they know about the first few seasons? Putting the first few seasons on Adult Swim would be sort of unnecessary, because it's not that inappropriate. Blah. I don't see what the big deal about the nudity was, though. I saw the final episode just the other day. She looked like a Barbie. Something very common with little kids over here. rolleyes I do wish they would have aired the last season, though. Okay, I got way off topic. Sorry, guys. Listen.... Us Americans have butchered Sailor moon to extremes. The Theme song is no exeption. It's ALWAYS better in Japanese with the fansubs. The subs tell almost a completely different story. In fact, I saw episode 44 (episode 39 in the English dub) in Japanese and the story of Silver Millennium was very different from what the dub told.
