Speaking of Sailor Moon, I just watched that musical Sera Myu that TV-Nihon subbed a while ago. I'm not sure what all the hype was by some people, but the music wasn't all that good, and they just danced around the stage.

Minako's music in PGSM is much better. It was kind of cute though. Also the host interviews them, which is pretty funny, because the questions are really uninteresting. "What's your favorite animal?" But they're responses are somewhat comical.

It was also funny, because apparently while these girls are Japanese, they are performing in China, and the host has to translate everything they say, and everything she says to them, but the subtitles translate both of them. Overall, it was pretty boring, and the music wasn't even good. But they the actresses do a good job at mimicing the characters. It still doesn't compare to PGSM.

Episodes 48 and 49

The finalle was very interesting. We got Mamoru becoming posessed by Queen Meteria. Usagi having to fight her greatest love was a great taste of irony. Nice work on the setup for the battle. Poor Mio bites the dust. I can't believe I'm feeling sorry for her really. In the beginning, I thought she ws pure evil, but she kind of went soft.

Queen Beryl was cold when she blamed Usagi when she was already feeling guilty enough. It was an interesting, and yet bittersweet victory, even if Mamoru's appearence besides Usagi as she faught was utterly annoying. Can't she do anything without obsessing over Mamoru. I know, it's supposed to be a love story, but I think they went a little far with it.

But what's more, Usagi throws a fit and as as Princess Serenity vows to destroy the Earth. Like she didn't learn her lesson from the first time. Even though, destroying the entire planet isn't going to bring Mamoru back, she goes off in a tempter tantrum. Typical girl. I guess even magical princesses have PMS. But, despite her being a typical girl, I was wrapped up in the interesting plot twist reguardless.

The other Sailor Soldiers step up and summon forth their powers and new weapons. Which ironically were used for about two seconds. Princess Serenity goes psycho and uses the Mythical Silver Crystal to obliterate the Earth.

Now at this point, they really surprised me. That was totally not the direction I expected them to take with this. But the problem is, the only way to solve the problem is to make everything magically go back to normal, as if there wasn't really a need to stop the destruction in the first place.

As much as I enjoyed the happy ending, because it was nice to see everyone happy again, they could have done that better, instead of everything all going back to normal, and the ending seemed a little anti-climatic.

Overall, they were good episodes, but it seemed like they couldn't make up their mind how to end it, and it would've been fine had they presented at least some kind of effort in the rebirth, instead of "Well, we used the Mythical Silver Crystal to destroy the Earth. Let's use it to make everything go back to normal." It also makes me question if Usagi will make the same mistake in the future, given the chance.

Hopefully, the Special Act will give us more closure.
