Should Neherenia be redeemed as a Sailor Senshi in the 90s Anime

Yeah don't remind me. It looks like they are uglifying the female characters to appeal to the woke male gaze monsters. Look at what they did to the Amazon. Funny enough as this dosen't appeal to most women as most women like to play as conventionally attractive female characters.

Totally! Women can be powerful and beautiful at the same time.

It kind of balances out, since now you can see both nipples on the barbarian who now looks like WWE's Batista. Assassin looks weird too, and I played her a LOT when I was a first grader (Seriously, look at diablo 1, look at the succubi, look at the spear/saber cats in diablo 2, it is rated M for an reason)

...actually everyone looks weird in the resurrected. Paladin should have had a smoother face, necro too, etc.

I like the sorceress however, she is better where it counts for me, even if her face is a mixed bag.

Assassin looks like some ugly fat asian boy. As asian I REALLY HATE such face.

I do have a theory that Nehellenia was supposed to be the original Sailor Moon in the manga and that's why she resents both the Queen & Princess so much, because by birthing a new Star Seed at the Cauldron, Queen Serenity took that status away from her and rendered her just another shell of Chaos.

But a Senshi in the 90's anime? Nah, she doesn't even have her own planet in that version, her becoming a Senshi wouldn't make sense with the background they gave her in the 90's.

I tend to think Princess Serenity is just a split aspect of the Cauldron Guardian.

I know I'm in the minority, but one thing I did like about the old anime is that it didn't go overboard on the extra Sailor Guardians as allies that the manga did in the end.

Given that there were several extraterrestrial threats to the Earth and none of them had an associated Sailor Guardian, it would be weird for Queen Nehellenia to become a Sailor Guardian just because.

I wish the series had expanded on non-Guardian allies and showed the people they did redeem in occasional roles as a reminder that they still existed.

It would have been nice if they at least remembered the Akayashi sisters existed and had them as pure heart crystal and/or dream mirror victims. Pretty sure in S aside from the Senshi themselves, Motoki’s little sister, Umino and Yuichiro were the only pre-established characters to get their pure hearts stolen.

True, 10 is enough.

This is a consequence of the 90's anime being light on continuity unfortunately. Each season is meant to be fairly self-contained and there are rarely callbacks to the previous ones, which is why we never see a follow-up on previously redeemed villains.
