Another rare Sailor Moon goodie unearthed! Many thanks to both of you and the original uploader! I'm disappointed though by the low quality and the dark image. A couple of clips posted by a Japanese Twitter user were of a much higher quality. Maybe someone could ask that person to share their version in its entirety?

Those're the heydays of the franchise. *sigh* It's certainly impacted on a whole generation of lil girls, tho, who, such as Kitagawa Keiko (PGSM Rei), have already become moms these days.

I still have no clue why Viz copyright striked it if they’re not planning on releasing it.

The special uses footage of the series which they own the rights to. It's the same reason why we can't upload the old Optimum dub or clips from any international dub really.

It’s kinda stupid if you ask me. If they were planning on releasing this stuff that would make more sense. I wonder if someone will upload this special somewhere where everyone can view it?

I agree...it is very hard to archive work (not shared anywhere else besides someone's personal laptop or something) when companies do this.

I understand protecting the IP, but this also excludes many moments and chances for fans and prospects to get (further) into the brand.

Oh my finally after all of these years

It's both stupid..and sensical. The cruelty is the point

Once big factor is that U.S. law does encourage, if not require entertainment companies to vigorously defend their IP. If you start letting things slide you could establish a precedent. Basically, outside of cleat cut cases of piracy, there are only two options, clamp down on everything or have a laissez-faire attitude on as much as possible. Viz is choosing the former option, as they even got fan projects that did not use an ounce of animation from the series taken down. Viz has the license and as a company it is trying to control how Sailor Moon is seen in the US and to do that it has to defend against any material that could jeopardize its exclusivity. In Viz's view, fans are not entitled to archives, not even of things that were previously released. One either goes through them or not at all.

This is what happens when anime is licensed. Even though things can be taken down when things aren't licensed, takedowns are usually less of a priority in those cases.

Thank you. This is a good explanation of what's happening.

It's unfortunate that these companies don't take some of this older and legitimate media and post it on their social media or youtube whatever or even their website as a way to preserve some of these things that literally can't be seen elsewhere. Yet, perhaps they can't do that, because the historically didn't own the license then, and they only own it now...yet simultaneously, if they're able to strike down this media, because they only license, they might have the wherewithal to share the same media.
