5.0 out of 5 stars Hotaru-chan! ^________^, October 20, 2001

By	Shi-chan "Shi-chan" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sailor Moon S - Hotaru's Secret (Vol. 9, Uncut Version) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Chibi Usa has a new friend...the cute, pretty Tomoe Hotaru! Both Chibi Usa and Hotaru are happy to be friends. Hotaru's father, though, is working for the Deathbusters! Hotaru has powers she doesn't know about. She hurts people without meaning to. Hotaru has flashbacks about finding she has hurt her goldfish and later, a boy at school without even remembering it. Hotaru's power is displayed when she seriously injures the daimons. The Outer Senshi want Chibi Usa to stay away from Hotaru...but Chibi Usa doesn't want to stay away from her friend! This is a great movie. Get the uncut version. I love Hotaru! ^________^ ~Usagi-Bunny

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Great, February 21, 2005

A Kid's Review

This movie is alright.The plot was good, but I expected much more.The villans are toatally stupid and rini's voice is really annoying. Sailor moon R is much better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Memories of the greatest anime ever, September 19, 2004

By	Romance Drama Fan "Romance/Drama Fan" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sailor Moon S - Hotaru's Secret (Vol. 9, Uncut Version) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon brings back so many memories. When I was very young and Sailor Moon first came out, I found it by fate by flipping the channels. Back then no one else watched it and it was on at 6:00 in the morning. Many years later I reunited with it and then I ordered the Japanese episodes fansubbed. The Japanese episodes were amazing. Back then their was no official distributer, so I ordered from a fansubbed distributer. The Japanese version was so different form the American version. It was completely different. I love both versions though. The English version brings back memories from my childhood while the Japanese version is uncut. It's fun comparing the episodes and seeing how much was changed. This version, however, is the edited and changed. It cuts out many scenes and makes a lot of changes. While it has changed a lot from the original Japanese version, it's great for a trip down memory lane, and brings back my childhood memories. This volume has very important episodes. This volume has many romantic moments and Serena and Darien and Usagi and Mamoru are my favorite couple ever. Many events happen, and this volume is very important. I love Tuxedo Mask. I am a huge fan of my favorite couple, Usagi and Mamoru and Serena and Darien. Serena and Darien and Mamoru and Usagi are my favorite couple.
