SAILOR MOON continues on DVD with this 8th volume of episodes from the second series (Sailor Moon R).

"A Knight to Remember" - A mysterious yet familiar ally has joined forces with the Sailor Scouts. But just who exactly is the Moonlight Knight?

"VR Madness" - Sammy and his dad decide to indulge in the new virtual-reality arcade, unaware that Alan and Anne are now using energy from it to harvest the Doom Tree.

"Cherry Blossom Time" - Alan and Anne decide to use the beautiful cherry blossom tree in order to collect energy for their dying Doom Tree.

"Kindergarten Chaos" - A runaway kindergarten bus leaves Sailor Venus to save the day all by herself in this landmark episode.

"Much Ado About Babysitting" - An estranged Serena and Darien finds themselves back together when they decide to look after a sick mother's baby.

"Raye's Day in the Spotlight" - Raye decides to run the annual temple open-day by herself, uaware that Alan and Anne have decided to take advantage of the huge amounts of energy that will be used there.

The Doom Tree Strikes is a terrific DVD for Sailor Moon fans of all ages. Six episodes feature the wicked couple Alan and Ann, who are seeking energy for their beloved Doom Tree, which is also the source of their own lives. Alan and Ann enroll at Serena's school. Despite their mission, Alan immediately fixates on Serena, Ann on Darien. But Darien doesn't return Ann's affections. In fact, he doesn't return Serena's affections either, for Darien has lost his memory of the Sailor Scouts, Tuxedo Mask, and the recent battle with Queen Beryl.

Although Tuxedo Mask is AWOL, the Scouts do have a mysterious ally in the gorgeous, Lawrence-of-Arabia type "Moonlight Knight." Serena immediately thinks the Moonlight Knight is Darien, but Darien says he has no idea who that guy is.

Serena's lovely lavender-haired mother makes a rare and beautiful appearance in the episode "Cherry Blossom Time." Each of the scouts stars in an episode, except Mercury, because Serena is featured in two episodes.

The dubbing is very good. Don't waste time - buy this DVD for your collection.

It features sailor moon says after every episode, 1 complete adventure, 4 exciting volumes, 13 continues episodes,over 4 1/2 hrs of non-stop action, starring sailor moon, and all of your favorite scouts, great new villians,and many more incredible suprises. also might be avaliable on dvd. my opinions are that it was a great series, all about love, and friendship,caring,sharing, and respecting peoples feelings, but if you are willing to read subtitles, or listening and understanding japanese, then you should buy the doom tree series japanese language version (first version) then buy it, it contains all of the episodes, and the full story on the doom tree series, also get the doom tree strikes back series, also on dvd.

i got it quick ii like that it wasnt put up for a ridiculous price.... the option of used ones was very convienient and it doesnt look very used to me,lol. it looks like i bought it straight out the store. o well, besides the disc(was a lil dirty)it even came with the menu of episodes in the case.

the case wouldn't snap together when I got it, and was a little scuffed. the dvd works but probably wont for long. Not bad for the price, but I didn't expect this.

When I buy sailor moon DVD's I buy them because they contain the original Japanese Uncut version. This doesn't have that. If you liked the American version and want it on DVD then your wish has been granted because this is it. Personally, I'm disappointed with the fact that all the other series have the original Japanese versions but this one. It makes my collection incomplete. But as I said if you liked the American versions and weren't looking for the Japanese I'd say this product is for you.

This is the First release of the Doom Tree series of Sailor Moon R. This DVD contains 6 great episodes featuring all your favorite characters; Serena, Amy, Raye, Lita, Mina, Darien. They have all lost their memories since their battle against the evil Queen Beryl, and a new villain has arrived. Alan and Ann, 2 aliens, who have come to earth to feed the energy of humans to their doom tree. <review based on television/theatrical viewing>

Doom tree series is actually an extension and continues after Sailor Moon has Defeated Queen Beryl and the Negaverse. Okay series but I prefer the season when we are first introduced to Reeny.

Just to let you guys all know you can be Sailor MoonR uncut on DVD. ITs alot better to. So if you want it uncut buy sailor moonR uncut on DVD Thank you. I have all The episodes to including Sailor Stars.
