I think Mercury has gotten the best treatment in Eternal along with Mars from what we have seen. Jupiter the worse clearly and Venus has new stuff both in her transformation and attack so it's ok even tough it seems that from the reviews the movie has a downgrade in terms of animation and drawing at the end of the movie when her awakening scene happens ( there is a shot in the chainon movie that looks kinda derp altough not Crystal derp bad ).

And yes... Usagi adult ( the small one is the cutest and her design works perfectly ) seems to be the less appealing one in her Eternal design.

Mamoru and Chibiusa look really great too and her design is such an update from the previous Crystal designs.

The scene with the boulders falling towards her looks cool, at least. I wonder if Yuu Yoshiyama drew it? It looks like her style.

(Before anyone goes "WOW LOOKS AT THAT BAD QUALITY" at the last cut, it's one of those shots where they do a dramatic close up that intentionally distorts the image. You'll get what I mean if you see it in motion.)

Yes, I gotta say the animation of the rock falling looks pretty cool!

Mars was treated lovely in Crystal S1 & 2 "attack wise". All her attacks looked powerful and pretty.
:rei: on good animation day she rocks.


^ If only all of the S1 & S2 had this level of quality.


Look at her blow up Jadeite's face. XD


So fierce.


She's scary here.


Sadly only used once and didn't even worked.


Best one in my opinion.

There's some weird proportions here and there but you can see a lot of creativity in them.

Mars Snake Fire was a bit too subtle in its display but at least it appears to eats energy, the enemy, and then explodes afterwards as it did to Eudial.
LOL. The only time it was source accurate were in the Super Famicom and 3DO games. Though I don't mind at all since she looks like she's about to dump. XD

It's the first time Mamoru is really attractive. I always thought his design was absolutly bland (90 anime or crystal), as most of male designs from Takeuchi... But in Eternal he has some very nice shots and isn't just a black-haired-Motoki (or is Motoki a blond-haired Mamoru ? ^^).

I think Motoki looks like a yaoi character in Crystal. :mrgreen::D

This is where we realize, it's a shame that Toei didn't give more money to make a really good anime. Because these with Sailor Mars, it was a killing!

Can Toei please give a darn about this series and announce an international release for overseas fans already x__x
Isn't the 5 year wait long enough already.
I am just as frustrated too. It might be ages from now, just announce it officially.
The response seems really massive from international fans (literally thousands upon thousands). I still think this is where the bulk of the money will come from for the movie. Toei absolutely have to had known this already. The international market will most likely end up saving future productions of the show.
They do. I am sure the Netflix deal is real but I just hope for official announcment.

Well they posted the full video on YouTube so no need to wait for BRD rip ^^
wow
I mean, I still kinda dislike the artstyle but meh, I can live with it BUT something I can't get over is the lack of in between frames.
Some scenes looks really stiff like they just cared about key frames so it wouldn't look too bad on big screen. It's something I noticed they started to do it in the black moon arc and in season. Venus speech (for example), it looks kinda plain (but well drawn) in S3 but somehow in S1/S2 she has a lot of movement... specially in the hair, I need them to bring back whoever animated the hair back in the first two seasons lol

I know we've seen the top pic, but the bottom is new:

They've really nailed some of the comedy scenes from the manga.
They did indeed, by using the manga comedy faces. I didn't like the artstyle when they showed the first poster and concept art. But ever since I saw stuff animated I find it great.

Can we please forget season 2 existed? That looked ugly AF, Sailor Moon at its absolute worst LOL

The pic at the top reminds me of Crystal 1 and 2 style. She looks very much mature.

It would be so funny to get a parallel Sailor Moon anime with the senshi as grown women and their daughters as the new senshi..lol

Basically, the Inner attacks..

Mars
Mercury
Jupiter/Venus - both of their attacks look kinda boring.

Also, Venus feet are strangely not in the attack shot. It's cut off in the original but not that much..lol It's not a big deal of course. Haha. Just noticed it.

I'll reserve judgement about the rest but the majority of the shots look nice.
The majority of the shots, I definitely agree, but the heart crystal brooches look a little out of place, did they need to CG them? :roll:

:ami:'s ending pose looks a little awkward (and her attack is really good, but still has the error where her brooch looks more like a circle for some frames, or is it just my eyes?), but her transformation looks wonderful, :usagi: and :chibiusa:'s attacks are good, :rei:'s Flame Sniper and :minako:'s Love and Beauty Shock are definitely a case where they improved on the animation of the original, as much as I loved Ikuko's version and I do wish they kept Venus' lipstick like the original had, but still good. :mako:'s on the other hand, spinning looks like it's missing some frames, we needed more oak leaves.

The Eternal uniforms are wonderful, I love how they added the circlets on the wrist sections of the gloves, although it looks like :ami:'s brooch was incorrectly colored yellow (hopefully a BD fix that can be added in time for the international release).

The scene with the boulders falling towards her looks cool, at least. I wonder if Yuu Yoshiyama drew it? It looks like her style.

That "BAD QUALITY" thing doesn't look bad at all.
