Well...I dunno. There was some cool stuff happening in this episode, but... Let's see, I LOVED Venus proving that she does, indeed, employ her anus of holding. :roll: The kitties were cute, as usual, I LOVED Luna playing with the ball of yarn. So very cute, if not a tad strange. But I wonder, are they attaching magnets to the plush's feet now? Because she was skating across the table pretty nicely and no way a puppeteer's hand could have been involved!
I honestly did sigh in exasperation when Hina showed up on the double date. Dammit, woman, you're not wanted here! :x Mako-chan was quite the stalker this episode...wonder what brought THAT one? Is she that hopeful the Usagi and Mamoru will get together despite Hina? And I assume that she saw Mamoru transform, or change, or whatever...or she makes a habit of confronting people and asking if they're Chiba Mamoru. P-:
Ami needs to get a life. She is knitting way too much stuff! Although I must admit, Luna's scarf was excessively cute. ^_^ It's so sad that she did all of those projects, and now she's been snatched by Kunzite! I wonder if he's going to try and get ALL of the senshi under his power so he can try to go after Venus, perhaps? Maybe this'll lead up to the true princess being revealed? I must say, I'm curious as to what episode 21 has in store. The week always takes too darned long, though! *cries*

8) I give it a "good episode" rating! I thought it was pretty clever how they resolved the Venus-Nephrite cliffhangar ending from Act 19. (You didn't really think that lackey Nephrite was going to pull that caper off, did you?). There were some really nice Usagi-Mamoru scenes in the park, plus that scene when poor Usagi dicovers that Mamoru and Hina are ENGAGED! Cutest scenes to me were of Luna playing with the yarn and then falling asleep later! Scariest scene to me was Kunzite capturing Mercury! ANYTHING Kunzite does has the word OMINOUS written all over it! Needless to say, I can't wait until Feb. 28 or 29 for Act 21!

Very cute episode! The whole time I was watching, I kept thinking, what great clips for a Usagi-Mamoru montage... moviemakers, start your engines! I just can't get over Sawai Miyuu's smile... she just lights up the whole room!

I really liked how they didn't show Mamoru changing/transforming. I thought it was more effective just to see Mako-chan intercepting him and he's already Tuxedo. That was a pretty evil look on this part, as well.

What was the point of Minako faking out Nephrite? I want to see further into why she did that. Also, did it seem like as soon as he walked away, she sprang right up like she was totally fine? What the heck is that all about?

(sigh)... I can't wait til Minako joins the rest of the group... Her solo act is starting to annoy me. Rei needs to out her already! What's with these disjointed efforts? Come on, act 21....

She still wanted to convince the Dark Kingdom that she's the princess and has the crystal, so she staged the little ruse so they wouldn't go after or lure Sailor Moon or the others.

Because they seem to focus so much on Ami compared to the other senshi, remember all those Ami centric episodes in the anime? Not that I don't like Ami but she's always been a prominantly featured senshi. So it's understandable if you are starting to get curious, when the attention is focusing on a character like that, it's usually the writers saying HEY PAY ATTENTION TO MEEE I'M IMPORTANT!!

But Usagi has to be the princess I mean would they really change the entire series like that? :grey: Dear god I hope not :cry:

Did anyone else, by chance, think that Mamoru looked way cuter and sexier with a genuine smile on his face, and not a frown.. or forced smile? I thought this episode had a lot of genuine "happy" feelings in it... err.. until Hina came along. She's just the end of the party, isn't she? :|

This act re-enforces my desire for PGSM to become a one hour drama. I really get into these episodes then the moon cycle shows up. -_-
AGREED!!! I HATE THOSE MOONCYCLES... THEY'RE EVIL!! :lol:

anyways, i had been asking myself a few times in the past few eps, why do they keep on showing that Ami-chan is not being paid attention at? Well, i know the answer to it now... I think they're trying to use the plot similliar to the cause on what made Chibi-usa turning into Dark Lady and thus hating the senshis with the big capped words "I AM BEING SECLUDED" welly tucked into her brain.

Yikes.. Hama's evil smile really made me gulp... *shivers* I don't want mamoru to get punched.. he didn't mean it. I mean, he can't just turn around facing usagi and say "I know who you are... Sailor Moon." that would just spell wrong and i think he just hoped to spend more quality time with his love before marrying Hina and couldn't bring himself to say "I love you" to make the other party suffer if she loves you back and had to see you marry off.

one thing's bugging me, how the hell does mako-chan knows that usa and mamo had a double date? even usagi herself doesn't know. haha.. her spying really freaked me out when i saw the screenshots from serecindra's storyboards. looks evil when she was in the bus.

another thing.. where is zoicite? i really liked kunzite though.. seems like he is the only one besides queen beryl who really has experience in the acting circle. I hope they would at least pair the senshis up with the generals if they happen to not continue with the dark moon arc after this. But then again.. if they did, what will happen to motoki? i would really hurt to see that poor guy without someone noticing him. Oh wait, if zoicite's the only one who's not gonna come back, that would make ami-chan single, and she's lonely and is in need of attention too!! WOW! i think i can write a fic already :P

Honestly, i really didn't think Jyoji was that hot in the first few eps, but i fell in love with him more and more already! I really love his smiles!! and Usa's the sun too! aww... i really love the pairing... Wonder do they actually get along real live?

Since Mako-chan didn't dispel the engagement thing to Usagi, I think we can count on her squealing about Tuxedo Kamen.

2 reasons:
1. It would be a concrete reason for Usagi to give up on Mamoru/Tuxedo Kamen once and for all.
2. It would lead up perfectly to Mamoru turning evil, if he does.

I don't think Mako-chan can afford to keep this one a secret. I hope she tells Usagi. BUT I get the feeling it'll be another *gasp* moment for Usagi anyway. She'll be fending off youmas to protect Mamoru when he suddenly changes/transforms into Tuxedo Kamen. And then the whole princess things just unravels from there when Kunzite shows up.

Haha... maybe I should head over to the fanfiction department too...

About Kunzite, he seems to know something strange is going on with Sailorvenus, the princess. Maybe he notices she might not be the real princess...

He says this (I took these from the Act 20 synopsis):

"It is strange. That princess" (to himself after seeing Nephrite fooled with the fake tiaras)

"Have you never had any doubts about the princess?" (to Jadeito)

Could Kunzite's suspicion have lead to his wanting of Sailormercury, and lead to the princess' revelation?

Yes. Yes. And did I mention, YES?! That's why I love seeing Mamoru with Usagi, because his smiles with her are REAL, where as with Hina, they seem a little fake.
