jaebilityI was a huge Sailor Moon fan way back in the day - When I was a kid, one of the local channels playing the English dub of the show at the buttcrack of dawn and me and my sister would wake up early to watch it. We bought a few of the videos on VHS and watched them with religious fervor. One glorious weekend we went up to Toronto on a family trip and discovered a store that sold anime merchandise and we splurged on posters and keychains. I read a few of the comics when I was in high school and watched the live action series in college, but other than that... Still know the opening theme song by heart, however. I'll be 100 and in a nursing home, drooling on myself and in my pudding, but I'll still be able to sing it.
FIGHTING EVIL BY MOONLIGHT WINNING LOVE BY DAYLIGHT you are the best theme song ever
Anyway, my FL was talking about it so I started talking about it with The Boy, and he convinced me to try to buy the whole series on DVD. I patiently explained how no American company has the rights and yadda yadda yadda and he patiently explained how there's this thing called eBay that sells all sorts of things with varying degrees and legality. A week later, a boxset of Sailor Moon episodes came from Malaysia arrived.
We're still on the first disc, but we're already about 15 episodes in. IT'S JUST AS AWESOME AS I REMEMBER IT. Transformation scenes? Yelling out attack names? So good.
