Today's Sailor Moon is a rip-roaring special episode!
Scenes from the new series are going to be showing up everywhere!
That's right!
And there are rumors of a new main character taking over...
Yup, yup, a new main character taking over... What?!
Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon!
Usagi and the Girls' Resolve! Prelude to a New Battle
Moon Crystal Power, Make-Up!
Hi! I'm Usagi Tsukino!
As you're well aware, for love and justice, the sailor suited pretty soldier, Sailor Moon!
Now then, it's time for the new series you've all been waiting for!
We'll do our best always, so you won't be disappointed!
Whoa, what's this all of a sudden?
Who the heck are these two?
Are they our new friends? Or our enemies?
Maybe they're dropping you as the main character
because you're so absent minded?
I'm going to be?!
No way, right?
Ami, is this our new enemy?
Yes.
But we don't know their identities yet.
But considering those two we just saw and these guys,
it looks like the new series isn't going to be just a walk in the park.
Say, I'm not really sure about this,
but could this pair be sailor soldiers?
Sailor soldiers other than us are...
Sailor Pluto!
Any and all who break the taboo,
and attempt to approach the doorway of space-time
shall be eliminated!
It's true, there was Sailor Pluto,
who guarded the doorway of space-time, but...
Could that have something to do with those two?
Oh, I know!
Luna and Artemis probably recruited those two,
just like they recruited us!
What?!
Oh, I need to thank you first.
Thank you very much.
There!
Usagi, this is a present for you.
Really? I can have this?
Usagi, there are weird things happening in Tokyo right now.
All right! Thank you!
No way! What is this?! I've transformed!
Usagi, we weren't recruited, remember?
What is this? What does this mean? Tell me!
We were chosen soldiers of the moon kingdom to begin with.
Oh, right, right.
Then, do you think they came from the future like Chibi-Usa?
What?
Where did you come from?!
I'm Usagi.
What?
But King Endymion never said a word about anything like that.
Just who are those two, I wonder?
But you know, but you know,
these two are sure to be our friends, right?
If they were on our side, wouldn't they show themselves properly?
Don't say that!
Then are these two our new enemies?
We can't say that for sure either.
After all, we have enemies aside from those two.
What are these monsters?!
Are they monsters from the Dark Kingdom?
Are they Ail and An's Cardians?
Or Black Moon Droids?
They're not any of those, they're a new kind of enemy.
Then, how will those two be involved in all this?
This is the end!
Who's there?!
Oh, could it be that when we're in trouble,
maybe they'll show up to save us, like Tuxedo Mask does?
That would be nice, but...
Morga, you screwed up. You idiot!
I don't think we should be taking this so lightly.
Maybe I'll just have to become the main character after all.
What?!
What are you saying?!
Sailor Mars!
Sailor Mercury!
Sailor Jupiter!
Sailor Venus!
My hair bursts a fire into the sky.
My body is like a flame.
Oh no! Why is it turning out this way?
Now I'm really burning up inside.
While I'm in love and heart-rendingly so,
I want to have sweet dreams, but
they won't allow it; it's their fault.
As I thought, it's up to me to do this.
With my own hands, I shall smash evil into defeat.
Playtime is over now.
Who are you?!
A member of the Black Moon Clan from the Dark Moon,
That's right! Until then, I must persevere.
Crimson Rubeus.
Why are you after this child?!
Our mission is to change the future of this city.
Awaken, oh pale soldier!
In order to do so, that girl...
must die.
No matter how bad a person you are,
If you love me, I will believe in you.
If the enemy is going to change,
it's about time we change the main character, too, don't you think?
You shouldn't try to take advantage of
Hey, I don't agree with that!
Oh, Usagi, don't worry.
something like that!
Just leave the rest to Minako!
Wait, wait, wait!
So, the time for me to be the main character has finally come!
I always want to protect you.
Hey!
For your sake, I'll go leaping forward.
Mako, you, too? Then does that mean we're all thinking the same thing?!
Love alone is unlimited energy.
Hello?!
I agree, we should carefully study the past data
to see who will be best suited to counter the new enemy.
Come on, it's up to us do this.
Hey, come on.
Say, we won't get anywhere just arguing among ourselves,
With our own hands, we shall smash evil into defeat.
so I think a simple match of rock-paper-scissors would be good.
What?! I'm super-weak at rock-paper-scissors! You can't!
That's right! Until then, we must persevere.
Okay, okay, how about arm wrestling?
What?!
Arm wrestling?!
We all know you'd win that, Mako.
Yeah!
We've got to go with fortune telling.
We swear upon our hearts, soldiers of love.
Let's see, how's our luck for this year?
I knew it, I'm the best for the job!
Rei, your fortune telling isn't dependable!
Then, let's compete fair and square with chess.
What's chess?
You even lost to Chibi-Usa.
Oh, my head hurts!
Come on, it's up to us do this.
I know, everyone! Let's do the staring contest!
What?!
You laugh, you lose! Here we go! Three, four...
With our own hands, we shall smash evil into defeat.
Let's stare at each other! One, two, three!
That's right! Until then, we must persevere.
Your faces are all so screwed up! You look weird!
You lose!
Come on, if we keep doing this,
Awaken, soldiers of love!
all our friends out there watching us will turn us off.
What?!
No, you can't! You can't!
That would be bad. No, you can't! You can't!
Okay, then how about we look back on what we've done so far
and decide on the main character for the new series that way?
No objections!
Everyone, please look forward to it.
All right! I'm getting fired up!
Come on, the main character is never going to be swapped out!
After the commercial break,
we'll be bringing you thrilling images from the new series as well.
Everyone, be good and wait for us. Stay right where you are.
No way! What is this?!
This is material for the nationwide premier!
Super top secret images from the new series.
Oh, Rei!
Is the main character Rei?
You can't do that!
Just leave it all to me!
I'm the main character!
I'm just so perfect at everything I do.
Even at T-A school for girls, I was an idol after all.
Miss Rei!
And just look at what I can do in an action scene.
Impudent brat!
No matter who appears,
I have no fear of my main character status being taken away from me.
But you know, if you become the main character,
you might end up causing more laughs than even Usagi.
That might not work well with how the new series pans out.
Fire!
Soul...
That won't happen!
In the end, for the new series...
She just bumped into him, and you're getting on her case?
Talk about cheap.
You bitch!
She should be really strong,
good at ice skating,
Kamikaze
Okay! Let's do it!
a domestic person on top of that
and good at cooking. I'm the best suited to be the main character.
Who the heck would say all that about herself?
Thanks for the food!
It's good!
But you still can't forget about your old senior from school.
Hey, that goes for you, too, Minako.
Not at all. I am totally fine.
Just leave it to the original sailor soldier, Sailor V,
better known as Sailor Venus!
After all, back when I was Sailor V,
they made anime shows, video games, and even pencil boxes out of me.
Coming Soon
I was hugely popular.
I have an especially large fan base of kids rooting me on.
You're right. I think I do owe it to those kids.
Why did it turn out like this?!
I can't believe this!
Oh, no!
But you know, in that episode, you were even clumsier than me, Minako.
Oh, I can't believe you said that!
There's not much of a difference between Minako and Usagi.
What's that supposed to mean?!
Groups of five?
Why?
See?!
There's something suspicious!
It makes you want to check it out, doesn't it?!
Yeah, you two were like twins in this episode.
But, but, but I'm not a dummy like Usagi.
I'm not as clumsy as Minako!
Then that leaves me?
I'm really not enthusiastic about being the main character.
But even as you say that, you're still bringing up your best scenes.
Rather than showing my best scenes,
I'll do a collection of my best, meaningful lines.
Hey, now.
You didn't use the Crystal Disk, did you?!
You should study on your own without using machines!
If I turn into a monster,
please do not hesitate to kill me!
Urawa, the future is yours to create!
If you give up, everything will happen just as you think it will.
But as long as you have faith in yourself,
you should be able to create any future for yourself.
My friend told me that I should be more honest with myself.
Miss Ami...
Sacrificing yourself is certainly very admirable,
but if you're honest with what's in your heart,
don't you feel that you want to make it through alive?
Aren't you forgetting
that there are people who will grieve over your death?
Mercury! You're back!
In the end, I just can't leave you guys.
You're the one I can't forgive!
What?!
Why you! Why weren't you taken in by my auditory and visual illusions?!
You couldn't possibly understand
how our hearts are bound to one another by trust!
Mercury!
But this isn't the time to look back at the past.
Our next enemy is already beginning to act.
You guys all got to do yours. Don't you think that's unfair?
I'm doing my own section, too!
Everyone!
Even if you repaid us with nicer haute couture dresses,
I would never forgive you for cutting up a girl's clothes!
I am one of the Great Four of the Dark Kingdom, Kunzite!
On my pride, I will not yell, "Refresh!"
What?!
Impossible!
Grovel on the ground like a frog, and I will squash you!
Die!
What?!
Unforgivable!
No matter what...
This is the way it's gotta be!
The main character's gotta be the well established Sailor Moon!
Well, watching these scenes,
you look like you play a serious champion of justice, but...
What's that supposed to mean?
This is definitely not how she is normally, after all.
Yup, yup.
She eats like a pig,
and her mental age isn't any different than Chibi-Usa's.
And the situation with her studies doesn't seem to have changed.
You guys are so mean!
Come on, everyone, let's leave it at that for today.
Yeah.
I was thinking of punishing you a little more
to make you be more aware
of yourself as a soldier and a princess, but...
I think she already got the message by now.
What?
Then you guys weren't serious about any of this?
That's right.
We need you so we can be sailor soldiers.
We all love you, Usagi.
You guys!
Now that I have obtained the energy of darkness,
I will not be sealed away by the Silver Crystal!
Everyone, lend me your strength...
Please!
Mercury Power!
Yes, I'd forgotten.
Mars Power!
For us sailor soldiers, it doesn't matter who's the main character.
Jupiter Power!
Venus Power!
Moon Prism Power!
When we came together and our hearts became as one,
we were able to defeat our enemies, no matter how powerful they were.
It's because...
What is this?!
We were able to win because you were all there.
This is...
Please, Silver Crystal, lend me the power to protect everyone!
Oh, Chibi-Usa...
The power to protect everyone!
Mercury Star Power!
Mars Star Power!
Jupiter Star Power!
Venus Star Power!
Moon Crystal Power!
Evil power!
Begone from this place!
I, Death Phantom, the ruler of darkness, will not be defeated...
Usako!
Usako...
Mamo...
Thank goodness.
You guys...
Chibi-Usa!
I'm really happy to have met such wonderful friends.
And with that spirit in mind, let's do our best in the new series, too!
But ultimately,
we never found out if those two are our enemies or allies,
nor did we find out what kind of opponents our new enemies are.
Ami, don't worry!
We'll find out everything once the new series starts.
That's right. Rather than thinking about this and that...
We just have to march on ahead!
If we all work together,
we'll be able to stand up to even the toughest hardships, right?
You're right.
Well, everyone, please look forward to how our future story unfolds!
See you later!
Now that the battle with the Death Phantom is over, we finally have some time off!
But, we're 9th graders! Which means that high school entrance exams are coming up. Right, Rei?
Rei, what's wrong?
It's coming! The Silence is coming!
A new enemy...
Premonition of World's End?
Mysterious New Soldiers!
Sailor Moon Super
Premonition of world's end? Mysterious new soldiers!
The moonlight carries the message of love.
