Supertitious Sailor Moon?

I know some stuff about superstitions and bad luck such as a black cat crossing your path or to get a role playing Superman, even when you heard about their misfortunes. Now here is another taboo; Sailor Moon! That’s right; this series had to go through constant editing, story changes, characters’ misinformation, missing scenes and different distributors.

The story is about a girl who uses her locket to transform to fight the evil that plagues Earth with the help of her transformed friends called Sailor Scouts and her mysterious man in a tuxedo and a mask. From an evil queen to evil sailor scouts of the galaxies, it was easy to hide some of the content but there is some thing you could not explain to the kids.

I understand changing the character names makes it easier to remember their personality. Some part of the story they changed could make sense for the kids but, an anime fanatic or an experienced otaku can not be fooled. The scene that has my attention was the final confrontation between Queen Beryl and Sailor Moon, each of the sailor scouts were “captured” before the battle. The fact was the scouts were killed, not captured and before season two started, all the scouts are alive.
Relationships were changed as well; one was with malicite and zoycite. They had to shield the kids that this relationship was a man and a woman. This is incorrect, in the manga, they are both men. They put a woman voice for zoycite to presume everyone that this person is female. Another relationship is between Sailor Neptune and Uranus, which the anime claimed that they are “cousins”. This is a woman-woman love and it was covered up by making them cousins. Between Serina and Darien, this consists on their age difference. Serina is a junior high school girl and Daren looks like he is in college. It started out as a crush but they let slide.

The transformation transition was covered up by masking it with sparkles until their gear has been placed. I don’t think they could explain anything in Sailor Moon Stars, where as three guys in their class, who are singers called Three Lights, can transform into Sailor Scouts. Boys 2 Men transforms into Destiny Child? How are they going to explain that!

To any distributors out there, this is your chance to finish the saga once and for all. Buena Vista, ADV and Pioneer will not finish it. What about Funimation, Media Blasters or Urban Vision?
