This DVD is the first in the 4th season of Sailormoon, SuperS. One night, shortly after the Sailor Soldiers defeated the Death Busters, Chibiusa meets a mysterious Pegasus in a dream. The next day brings a solar eclipse, and a new enemy! When Sailormoon and Sailor Chibimoon try to defeat the monsters sent out against them, they don't have enough power. Now what?!? In a flash of golden light, the Pegasus from Chibiusa's dream appears and makes tham Super Sailor Soldiers. With their newfound power, Moon and Chibimoon defeat the enemy. But who is this mysterious Pegasus? Why did he appear to Chibiusa? And who is this mysterious kitten that shows up one day and attaches herself to Artemis?

A lot of people say that SuperS is the worst season of Sailormoon, I don't agree. The reasons most of them hate SuperS are because Chibiusa is the main character,the fact that SuperS isn't as serious as S, and that the Outer Solar System Soldiers aren't in it. Even though those things are true, it doesn't make SuperS a bad season. It has a lot of good points: the animation, the musical score, the villians, the new transformations and attacks, good episodes focusing on the individual Sailor Soldiers, etc. SuperS is a good season; maybe not as good as S, but darn good in its own right. (Plus, its absolutely perfect for Chibiusa fans like myself!)

Hi everyone. I would just like to take a minute and write a little about the Sailor Moon series which always seems to get dumped on by everyone. Sailor Moon SuperS begins right where the action of Sailor Moon S (which I also recommend you buy) leaves off.

Chibi-usa is sleeping before she is going to go to see the eclipse with her friends. It is in this dream that the mysterious horse Pegasus emerges and asks her to tell noone of their encounter. When she awakens... she is obviously questioning whether or not the dream was real. She goes to the park to meet her friends (the Sailor Senshi of course) and it is also at this time that the Dead Moon Circus arrives. Leaving everyone questioning who it could be.

While I will agree that SuperS doesn't have as much action as it's 3 predecesors. SuperS has some of the best voice acting, and a wonderful action which progresses through the episodes ( probably v.1 DVD, and v.5+6 will be mot evident.) I urge everone who has not seen it, or has only seen the english dub :0( to buy this DVD

This is a great DVD!Now go buy it!

Sailormoon SuperS takes place after Sailormoon S[uper]. The Death Busters have been defeated, the Outer Senshi have taken Hotaru-chan to be cared of, and Usagi and the others are finally going to high school! But during a solar eclispe, a giant ship appears out of the sky and lands in Tokyo, the Dead Moon Circus. Usagi and Chibiusa is called upon by a mysterious Pegasus who needs help, but they don't know why. When the Amazon Trio - Fisheye, Hawkseye, and Tigerseye - attacked the people and steal their dreams, Usagi and Chibiusa must power up to Super Senshi and become Super Sailormoon and Super Sailor Chibimoon, using their new powers and weapons to defeat the monster Lemures, help the Pegasus, and protect the dreams of the people of Japan! They are also aided by Tuxedo Kamen-sama, Sailormercury, Sailormars, Sailorjupiter, and Sailorvenus, the Sailor Senshi of the Silver Millenium! Created by anime genius Ms. Naoko Takeuchi, Sailor Moon SuperS is one of the best acclaimed seasons of Sailor Moon ever aired on television.

SuperS is considered to be one of the worst Sailor Moon seasons because of its plot. But overall it still is a good DVD. The animation is the best in the series, the music is wonderful, and you can get probably the most laughs out of this series.

The package design is completely outstanding! It has a reversible cover of Sailor Chibi Moon (of course I would never change it to that).

The interactive menus are really neat. The main menu has the picture of Super Sailor Moon that is on the cover, except that she actually blinks and her hair moves with the wind, plus there is some little scenes from the show in the background.

Overall this DVD is great! Pioneer seems to do better with each new DVD. This DVD is a must get!

It's so easy to kick the SuperS season around. For starters, it centers around Chibiusa, Usagi's future daughter, better known to those who hate her as "the Pink Spore." It also stars a winged unicorn named Pegasus (how he transformed from his original Greek version into an alicorn is beyond me) who spends most of the series popping up in Chibiusa's room after dark. Furthermore, the first set of villains, known as the Amazon Trio, use what is arguably the lamest method of "sneaking up" on their victims that you'll ever see. Finally, it's missing the Outer Senshi, which is blasphemy for the fans of the Haruka/Michiru (a.k.a. Uranus/Neptune) couple.

However, somewhere beneath that oh-so-sugary crust is a very good series which manages to be very entertaining in spite of itself. SuperS features some hilarious Usagi/Mamoru/Chibiusa interaction, taking the future King, Queen, and Princess into situations which make you wonder if they're going to be able to keep from killing each other before they even get started as a family. Also, as lame as their attacks may be, the Amazon Trio is a lot of fun to watch, especially when they're lounging around before picking their weekly victim. The "monster of the week" and "evil organization" concepts that run through the entire Sailor Moon series get new twists this time around, making for some very interesting mischief. The evil organization in the SuperS season is called the Dead Moon Circus, and as a result both the major villains and weekly monsters are based on twisted versions of bizarre circus characters. If you've always thought of clowns as being evil, just wait until you meet Mr. Magic Pierrot.

SuperS also features some of the best background music of the series, with the Dead Moon Circus themes being the highlight. If memory serves, Naoko Takeuchi (the author of the original manga) once said that the end credits theme used in the later episodes was her favorite music to date when the series aired. Your mileage may vary, but even if you don't like it, there are more than enough good musical moments elsewhere in the series to make up for it.

An important note: one member of the Amazon Trio (Fish Eye) was a big problem for the folks who dubbed this series into English. They didn't dare try to present a gay transvestite character to the afternoon Cartoon Network kiddie crowd, so they wound up making some serious changes to the script as a result. If you are the least bit homophobic, you won't like the first half of this series at all if you watch the original Japanese version. Still, if you're offended to this degree, the Haruka/Michiru lesbian pair from the S season probably chased you off before you even got this far. Haruka and Michiru are missing from SuperS, but the gender twists are back with a vengance. You can avoid dealing with this altogether by watching only the English dub, but the Japanese version is so superior in both acting and storyline that it merits watching even if you're not 100% comfortable with the ideas that it presents.

All in all, the SuperS series is classic Sailor Moon, even if it does spend too much time on the Pink Spore. It's still a major part of one of the best anime series ever created, and a must for anyone who wants to really experience the full scope of Japanese animation.

This DVD contains six uncut episodes: In both Japanese and English

Meeting of Fate! The Night where a Pegasus Flies

Super Transformation Again! Pegasus' Power

Sailor Moon's battle against them goes badly until Pegasus gives her and Chibi-Moon a super power. You want to know more? Buy the DVD or Video, but of course the DVD is highly recommended if you want all of the nice features this DVD does have. This is the start of Sailor Moon SuperS! Enjoy.

I don't like Chibi-usa. She takes over this season like a pink cancer

That said, Sailor Moon SuperS is good despite the focus on Chibi-usa. The episodes in this first disc of the season are naturally about Sailor Moon's powerup for the season, but that's expected. There are a bunch of humorous moments (SuperS is much more focused on humor than the last three seasons were) including the use (in Japanese) of the phrase "That's a ridiculous banana!" (I'm not kidding about that, either. It's really there.) The only episode that stands out is the last one, where Diana appears. I won't say too much so as not to spoil it, but it's really funny.

One note. In the dub, Fish Eye is a woman, while in the Japanese version, he was a man. The change doesn't annoy me too much (I don't like Fish Eye too much, man or woman), but the wierd thing is that his Japanese voice sounds female too.

This season is heavy on Chibi-usa, but there's enough action and comedy to interest any fan of Sailor Moon, even if you don't like the little pink Sailor Senshi.

*~Ok, well let's see, this is the 4th season of Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon known as Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon SuperS/Super Soldiers and really focuses a lot on Chibiusa trying to live a regular life with Usagi and the rest of the senshi but then a solar eclipse ruins everything. This eclipse is sort of "special" because while everyone is watching it in action the Dead Moon Circus appears. Not just that but recently a pegasus sparks up in Chibiusa's dreams and later helps Sailor Moon and Chibi Moon become Super Sailors. Yet begins the new season full of dreams, sadness, fight for Mamoru(Fish's Eye versus Usagi), romance(between Chibiusa and Pegasus along with Usagi and Mamoru's), and showing that Usagi and Chibiusa's bond grows not just as siblings but as mother and daughter. All I have to say is that if you're a Chibiusa/Rini hater please watch this season the whole way through and you might think differently of her. Otherwise if you don't want to give her a chance just forget this season was ever made! You will sure miss out on comedy(watching Mamoru's rear behind), the drama(seeing how much Usagi really loves Mamoru), and dreams....~*

This is the best Sailor Moon DVD I bought! I got this as a present from my mom for getting good grade's. At first, I expected it to be boring like the Sailor MoonS DVD, I rented, but SuperS was great! It also had my favorite episode on it, which i haven't see in a long time, and I've been dying to see! :) Anyway, I think ALL the episode's are great, and I recommend this DVD to any Sailor Moon fan!
