Watching Sailor Moon

[Senkusha]

Sailor Moon is THE anime that defines the Magical Girl genre. It completely altered the concept in Japan, and then when the Western world was exposed to it, seemingly we couldn't get enough of it. But, because this is such an old and popular series, it can be difficult, and even intimidating to figure out where to begin if one has never attempted to watch Sailor Moon before. I found the following list somewhere on the Internet a while ago, and thought, maybe I should share it here, and Punish the Chaos (okay, so that didn't sound as good as it did in my head... ). Anyway, here's some help for ya:

• Season 1: Sailor Moon (1992–93)
• Season 2: Sailor Moon R (1993–94)
• Sailor Moon R: The Movie (1993)
• Season 3: Sailor Moon S (1994–95)
• Sailor Moon S: The Movie (1994)
• Season 4: Sailor Moon SuperS (1995–96)
• Sailor Moon SuperS: The Movie (1995)
• Season 5: Sailor Moon Sailor Stars (1996–97)
• Sailor Moon Crystal Season One: Dark Kingdom (2014-2015)
• Sailor Moon Crystal Season Two: Black Moon (2015)
• Sailor Moon Crystal Season Three: Death Busters (2016)
• Sailor Moon Eternal Part One: The Movie (2021)
• Sailor Moon Eternal Part Two: The Movie (2021)
• Sailor Moon Cosmos Part One: The Movie (2023)
• Sailor Moon Cosmos Part Two: The Movie (2023)

Even as a boy, I used to watch it, just waiting for the masked man to get into action hahaha

I've managed to skip this in my childhood, although my wife loves it. Might watch it when I get some time.

The old anime has that charm but starting from scratch now can be very tiring. I just prefer to watch random arcs and move on. It's going to be very difficult to follow the full timeline. But I respect the legacy and the fact that the show open doors for plenty of others.
