Love and Justice: A Serious Sailor Moon Podcast

House Party: Snow White with the Red Hair

Emma is working in Hawaii so Lola and Kelby settle in to talk about season 1 of Snow White with the Red Hair. Kelby earns her segue medal, Lola fauns over Obi, and the two gush about how wonderful this shoujo masterpiece is. They also give actors who change blocking without warning a stern talking to

Episode 32: Cypress and Tortilla

This time we're talking Act 32 of Sailor Moon Crystal (which, again, is episode 33) Act 32 of the manga, and Episode 123 of the 90s anime.  We struggle to pronounce the name of Cyprine's counterpart, come to the conclusion that 90s Mamoru really is the worst dad ever, and dream up some serious Uranus/Neptune Silver Millennium headcanons

Episode 31: NegaWalmart w/Amanda Miller

Returning guest star champion Amanda Miller (@amanda_celine) joins us to discuss Act 31 of Crystal, Act 31 of the manga, and Episode 121 of the 90s anime.  While both stories are about Tellu and plants, only Crystal and the manga are about Sailor Jupiter at all.  As in, she doesn't even appear in the 90s anime, despite the fact the original story in the manga was kind of about her.  We're thankful to see Jupiter restored to her full glory in Crystal and even more thankful to discover that Crystal/manga Usagi doesn't allow her seemingly six year old daughter to wander around the streets of Juuban alone at night.

Episode 30: In Case of Emergency Release Lesbians

This week we discuss episode 31/Act 30 of Sailor Moon Crystal, Act 30 of the manga and episode 122 of the 90s anime (no matter what Emma says in the intro, which might not be the same).  We all agree that Ami is a better Batman/James Bond than actual Batman/James Bond, are disturbed by the fact that Professor Tomoe and Kaolinite have clearly just gotten it on every time we see them in the 90s anime, and are delighted that Usagi and Mamoru are very clearly about to get it on right after completing a family art project with Chibiusa.

Episode 29: Sexy Dreams and Profound Teenage Idols

This week we cover Act 29 of Sailor Moon Crystal, Act 29 of the manga and episodes 93, 144, and 120 of the 90s anime.  We applaud Sailor Moon Crystal for beautifully capturing the complex nature of Usagi and Haruka's relationship, love how both Mamoru and Michiru are portrayed as the respective significant others in this scenario, and are super sad to see Mimete gone so soon.  Because, silly as some of the plot lines were, we just really love how much screen time she got in the 90s anime.

Episode 28: First Lesbian Crush w/Xander Jeanneret

This week's episode covers Act 28 of Sailor Moon Crystal (which is actually episode 29 of the series) Act 28 of the manga and references a bunch of episodes of the 90s anime mostly spanning between episodes 107 and 111, which cover the bulk of Eudial's storyline.  We're joined by our dear friend Xander Jeanneret (@Xanderrific of King of the Nerds and Library Bards fame) who lived in Japan for a while and actually speaks Japanese.  Needless to say, he was able to provide some pretty valuable insight into the Haruka pronoun/is she pretending to be a boy or not situation.  He also brings up some interesting points regarding choices made in the 90s anime to make Sailor Moon a bit more kid-friendly i.e. really emphasizing Usagi's healing/love powers rather than having her attacks actually kill people, like she does to Eudial in Crystal/the manga.

Episode 27 Part 2: Going Crystal

This week we cover the rest of Act 27 of the manga (and about 10 pages of Act 28!), Act 27 Part 2 of Crystal (which we think is technically episode 28?) and episode 112 of the 90s anime.  We're pretty confused as to why 90s Chibiusa doesn't immediately recognize that Professor Tomoe is a Super Villain, wonder if Japan understands how filming works, and have a sexual awakening upon experiencing Haruka's perfect superhero landing in Sailor Moon Crystal.

Episode 27 Part 1: Full Utena

It's finally here! Sailor Moon Crystal is back, more beautiful than ever, and we could not love it any more.  We cover act 27 part 1 of Crystal, half of act 27 of the manga, and episode 90 (with a dash of episode 92) of the 90s anime.  We're pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoy the classic series, though we're not the biggest fans of the new monsters or Kaorinite's cheap Vegas hooker attire, are moved to tears over the new transformation sequences/attacks in Crystal, and can't get enough of that sweet, sweet Haruka/Michiru lovin'.

Best of Filler: Episode 37 a.k.a. Have You Seen this Dracula?

In another thrilling episode of Love and Justice: A Serious Sailor Moon Podcast, we discuss episode 37 of the 90s anime, in which Kunzite attempts to determine who the Moon Princess is based on how well a local teenage girl throws a frisbee.  We're appalled at how successful this plan actually is, confused as to why all the girls at the princess seminar dress like jockeys for outdoor activities when there are exactly zero horses in sight, and wonder where all this disposable income the Sailor Guardians seem to have is coming from, thus allowing them all to enroll in this thinly disguised charm school.
