Sailor Moon R episode 89 review

They didn’t feel it was necessary to include a new episode, so I don’t feel obligated to offer a new review. It’s all just clips from previous episodes. I guess, you could argue, that some of the dialogue was pretty funny, so I’ll give them that. But much of this episode is just a recrap. Yawn.

Sailor Moon R episode 88 review

You can be my luck, even if the sky is falling down, I know that we’ll be safe and sound.

So, more brainwashing, and more pleading by Sailor Moon, and eventually everything works out. An that’s about it. As usual, I am not making this up.

After Sailor Moon turns into Neo-Queen Serenity, she is able to convince Black Lady to turn back to the good side. Once that happens, then with their powers combined, I am Captain Planet they defeat Death Phantom. Then everything and everyone is back to normal, and Chibi-Usa runs off to the future.

Despite this battle being the climax of hard-fought battle, the overly simplistic style in which it is resolved makes me not like it all that much.

More brainwashing. That’s pretty much all this episode is. Sailor Moon gets brainwashed twice, and Prince Demande also gets brainwashed. Both snap out of it eventually, just in time for Demande to SAVE Sailor Moon. However, it looks like Wiseman (or Death Phantom) has the upper hand even now, with all the Sailor Guardians together, as Chibi-Usa (or Black Lady) is ready to beat them.

Actually, it wasn’t that bad of an episode. But the brainwashing thing is getting old and tired. I’m sick of it by this point. Try another tack, villains! Brainwashing can’t last forever! Use some brute force! Have a coupon day, or something!

Chibi-Usa is gone, and the Sailor Guardians are all very sad. But there’s not much time for them to wallow in sorrow, because Wiseman makes his move to destroy everything in sight. In the meantime, a guy named Saphir can’t be saved by his brother and gets killed off. Everyone’s so upset, while I’m like, “who the hell is Saphir?” And then Black Lady (Chibi-Usa) starts attacking the Sailor Guardians again.

Not a bad episode by any means, but I’m tiring of this arc, as the only real thing that’s going on is people being brainwashed. Could we please have some battles between people who aren’t brainwashed?
