This disc introduces the incredibly addictive series Sailor Moon and the
heroine of the series, the 14 year old Serena who is having troubles in
school, let alone staying awake!
Whilst
not pushing any new boundaries there is something incredibly catchy about
Sailor Moon, right from the title song through to the wonderful backgrounds
used in the cartoon. The backgrounds are all these wonderful watercolour
pictures that are used to great effect. Also the animated art is also coloured
in the same method. It's eye catching and even though I have seen it done
before, it looks particularly good in this series.
There
are six complete episodes on this disc and the characters are lively and have
a real character about them as opposed to generic shallow characters that
abound in some anime. The villains, headed up by Queen Beryl (great name), are
amusing and worthy opponents to the different Sailors from various planets who
must join forces to combat evil.
The
disc is well presented and looks and sounds good. Whilst utilising Dolby
Digital it is only 2.0 so don't be expecting any activity from your rear
speakers. The disc didn't lose anything with the exclusion of this sound
option.
Sailor
Moon Volume 1 is a great way to get into the sensation of this series! Highly
recommended for people who like a great fun anime DVD.
