A classic magical girl series hampered by a so-so release...
|
Like many members of the "classic Toonami" generation, I grew up watching the hacked-up English dubbed version of Sailor Moon. That said, while I'm glad that the original version of Sailor Moon has finally been released over here, the DVD sets put out by ADV leave much to be desired. I know that this series is over 15 years old and originally aired in monaural sound, but on these DVDs, the show looks and sounds quite murky. Surely it's not THAT hard to put out a mono track with some degree of clarity, right? Even FUNimation's recent Dragon Ball Z sets do better on their mono Japanese tracks. While we're at it, the show's opening credits sequence is normally placed between the episode preview and the "Usagi intro", but here, it's placed before both the episode preview and the "Usagi intro". What's up with that?
Also, to anyone attempting to buy this from a Marketplace seller: beware of sellers claiming to sell "import editions" or hawking these sets for under $100. ADV released this set with Region 1 (North America/etc.) encoding, and THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN "IMPORT EDITION" UNLESS YOU ARE BUYING A REGION 2 PRODUCT! These sellers (such as "monscreate" and "amazon-joe") are selling BOOTLEGS under the guise of legitimate releases, and they do this for many other titles such as Full Metal Panic!, Last Exile, and Samurai Champloo (three-disc releases of 26-episode series are also a dead giveaway because this invariably results in decreased audio/video quality). In short: if it looks too good to be true, it probably is. |
