Sailor Moon R episode 50 review
This time, it’s Usagi trying to hook up with Mamoru, who is also being followed around by the female bad guy. The three of them head into a virtual reality game, where Usagi runs into her family. Then all the other Sailor Guardians show up. In the end, they have to bail out Usagi, because for some reason her tiara won’t work. Meanwhile, Moonlight Knight shows up again, and Usagi now thinks he’s not Mamoru. All kinds of confusion reigns.
A lot of stuff going on here. Ultimately, this episode suffers a bit from Usagi being silly for 2/3 of the episode, before finally getting serious when it’s too late. But then again, that is Usagi for you. She’s just that hair-brained. I just don’t know if it works to have her being so silly when there is an enemy at hand. I guess that’s just what we have to accept with her, but it would help if she was a little more… with it.
