Sailor Moon S Dub Changes

The following is a list of changes and comments on the SMS episode of the day. Today's list contains information contributed by Sailor Avalon, pointegirl, Barbara, and Corey.

"Eudial says that Kakusui is an environmentalist (in the original, she said he was a priest of a certain sect)" - Sailor Avalon
"Professor Tomoe says that the pure hearts will take on the form of a mirror, a saber, and a crystal ball. (So Pluto is a fortune teller now? >_<)" - Sailor Avalon
"Rini says that Serena told her she couldn't go; Chibiusa says that Usagi told her she was going to the bathroom and then sneaked out the back door." - Sailor Avalon
"Amy tells Serena that eating too much will give her a big head and a dull brain (or something along those lines)." - Sailor Avalon
"In the scene where a group of guys are looking at Serena and the others, the guys decide that the all-you-can-eat buffet is more interesting; in the original, they thought Michiru (and Haruka too? I'm not sure) looked nicer." - Sailor Avalon
"In the scene at the pool when Serena and the others approach Amara and Michelle, Amara and Michelle call Serena "Moon Face" yet again even though that they aren't supposed to know that Serena is Sailor Moon." - pointegirl & Barbara
"In their conversation with Michelle and Amara, the girls talk about how they came to see Lita. In the original, they complimented each other on their appearance." - Sailor Avalon
Michelle uses the word "y'all." >_<" - Sailor Avalon
"In Jupiter's transformation, instead of blurring Lita's 'cheek' [Note: Buttcheek... you can partially see up Makoto's skirt in all 3 of her henshins and that really pisses me off because she's my fav Senshi, but anyway...], it was colored dark green so it'll look like a part of her skirt." - Corey
Neptune calls Eudial "Puff-pants" and then after she leaves, Uranus says that she probably went home to change her pants. ^o^" - Sailor Avalon

"Serena apparently fainted (a cover-up for Usagi's facefault?)." - Sailor Avalon
"They changed the part where Elsa grabs Lita and Mina's hips. In the original she was checking to see if they had strong hips. In the dub she was doing the Spider Stretch." - Erika & Sailor Avalon

"While eating the apple pie, Mina says "This has real apples in it." Lita replies by saying "Well Mina, I guess Serena's Mom was out of the fake ones."" - pointegirl & Sailor Avalon
"Rini says that she made the pie almost by herself, and then it's said later (I've forgotten by whom) that she made it completely by herself (which is what was said in the original)." - Sailor Avalon

"They change what Doctor Tomoe orders on the phone. In the original it was noodles, in the dub it was a pizza." - Erika & Mako-P
"Amara suggests that the roses are from Mike (I'm assuming Michelle's ex-boyfriend because Amara thinks they might have gotten back together). She then describes the type of guy that Michelle likes (rugged, athletic guys). Michelle says the guy who gave her the roses is none of those things, and accuses Amara of being jealous, but Amara says "I'm not jealous, these are flowers of true romance. Come on, who's the mystery man?" And Michelle again accuses her of being jealous and says they're from a student." - Erika, pointegirl, Mako-P, Master Mage Clef & Sailor Avalon
"The tailsmans are called "treasures"." - Erika
"Instead of "little girl,'" Neptune calls Rini "Kiddo." ^_^" - Mako-P

"They kept the attack name "Double Sailor Moon Kick!"" - Mako-P
"Neptune and Uranus' Transformations are still with "Star Power"" - Master Mage Clef
"A short part of a scene is cut (I'm not really sure why, maybe to make the conversation fit better?), it's the part where Neptune tells the daimon it should make art that is easier to understand." - Sailor Avalon
"Neptune's attack was "Waters in Neptune, Deep Submerge"" - Erika, pointegirl & Mako-P

"The cooking book that Amy sees is called "Easy Cooking for Lazy People" (so Darien is lazy now? ^^;), in the original it was a book on making curry." - Sailor Avalon

"Instead of Usagi being drunk, Serena became "sick" from drinking too much juice. In the original the "juice" was actually wine." - Erika & Corey

No Turning Back

The following is a list of changes and comments on today's SMS episode. Today's list contains information from Erika, Barbara, Corey, Mako-P, and Sailor Avalon.

"The intro is changed a lot. It shows SuperSailormoon and scenes from the R, S and SuperS movies. It also plays the North American DiC song [Note: This is probably the opening used in the dubbed VHS movie tapes and DVDs by Pioneer, and if so, I've seen it and I'm not too impressed]. They show the same one in Target. It shows Pluto and has a opening narration from Serena about what the episode is about." - Erika, Corey & Sailor Avalon
"When Serena is excited because she got the problem done in record time, Amy tells her that her answer is totally wrong; in the original, Ami says that Usagi made a small mistake." - Sailor Avalon
"Most of the lines about the pain of having one's heart crystal taken were cut out; one was left in, but was changed a little--it mentioned a Heart Snatcher going after someone, but there wasn't any mention of pain." - Sailor Avalon
"There is no mention of the Messiah or Dark Messiah." - Erika
"I think Mina and Serena say something Japanese after they see all the dolls Mina has one." - Erika
"They keep all the kanji in the bookstore and on the signs." - Erika

""Witches Eudial Fire Buster" is just called "Fire Buster", then "Turbo Fire Buster"." - Erika & Mako-P

"They changed the end. Michelle says something about "Maybe our missions are the same?" Amara says she wishes she wouldn't have changed in front of Serena and Michelle agrees. In the original they say they don't regret it because they wanted to save the them." - Erika, Mako-P & Sailor Avalon
