To me, Sakou isn't totally at fault. It's true that her design is difficult for animators, but if it is that bad, why people love Act 5 so much?
Come to think of it, if they had a clear plan from the start (script, character design, animators), things would have been different a lot.
When act 12 was aired, they even had no concept how Sailor Moon meet Sailor Saturn, Diana's design was changed in the last minute...
Why didn't they just delay the first season to October 2014??? And we will have Season 1 from October - December 2014, take a 6 month break and season 2 from July 2015 - September 2015...
I think finishing episode 26 feels like escaping narrowed death for S1 - 2 staff.
