For those who love Sailor Moon
*Please note that there are spoilers for Sailor Moon Crystal.
Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon is a media-mixed shoujo manga written by Naoko Takeuchi.
To elaborate, originally, Naoko Takeuchi's editor asked her to write a story about a girl who fights in a sailor suit to sell toys, which led to the creation of "Code Name is Sailor V," the original Sailor Moon.
Toei had its eye on the Sailor V.
- I want to make this work the Cutie Honey of the Heisei era."
- I want to make him the Moon Warrior in honor of the Moonlight Mask.
- I want to name my warriors after planets.
The idea was to create a "Sailor Moon," and the Sailor Moon you all know was born.
It's delicious instead of tsukimi! Have you tried the Otsukimi Burger, a collaboration between Sailor Moon and Mos, as seen in the commercial that says "It's delicious! It was very tasty, wasn't it?
After all, this is the work that most people of the Sailor Moon generation were into!
But actually, the anime and the original work are totally different. The influence of this is also seen in Rei Hino....
In this article, we will talk about the differences between the first Sailor Moon, the new Sailor Moon, and Rei in Sailor Moon Crystal!
Contents
appearance
Speaking of Sailor Moon's design, it looks like a normal high school girl!
On the other hand, Sailor Moon Crystal, which is faithful to the original work, has a strong lip and looks like a modern girl.
Maybe the times have caught up with Dr. Naoko Takeuchi! I like both Rei's, but what about you guys?
The difference was reflected in more than just Rey's own appearance.
Ray's evaluation
The old Sailor Moon Rei-chan was a savvy and dependable big sister, wasn't she?
But it is the original work and not in Crystal.
To begin with, when Ami and Usagi-chan got on the bus together, there was a girl that Ami was looking forward to meeting, saying that if she was lucky, she might meet a cute girl.
That's exactly what Ray was...!
Moreover, Usagi recognizes her as a cute girl and chases after Rei because she wants to talk to her more.
That's how attractive and beautiful Rei was....
character
The image I had of Rei-chan in the past was that of a firm, straightforward person who would scold an old man who was picking on a girl, or get angry at a rabbit and take care of him.
But the original and Sailor Moon Crystal are different.
She is a very graceful and elegant lady...! She is a beautiful girl, so her personality is also like a beautiful girl!
After you became an official member of the group, you were a little more broken up. But he still reacts in a nurturing way, not a rusty way.
To be honest, as a character, she's fascinating, but in the whole Sailor Moon production, she's a bit of a character to Ami.
Perhaps this is why the old cartoons made Rei a savvy older sister?
However, it would be more florid to make Rei-chan beautiful and graceful than to make her rustic with Naoko Takeuchi's design. It is a very difficult thing to do.
This is a major difference in interpretation between the original author and the Toei side.
Rei's love
Rei in the anime falls in love at first sight with Momo-chan and they go out for a while, right?
But with Crystal and the original, it's completely different.
I just worry about the bunny and have no particular reaction.
In the first place, Rei didn't appear much in the original work and Crystal, as Usagi-chan's focus was on her love life....
This is somewhat disappointing as a fan of Rey's.
Conclusion I prefer the old anime with more Rei Hino appearances!
How was it?
The graceful Rei was very cute!
However, it was a little disappointing that even though the number of episodes of the anime was small, Ami was still a little less impressive along with her because of the character she was wearing...
I like Crystal as well, but I still prefer the old Sailor Moon!
Which do you guys like better? If you haven't seen it yet, I'd appreciate it if you would take a look if you'd like!
See you next time!
