Sailor Moon Crystal.

So the "new" Sailor moon premiered in the US the other day.
I put new in quotations because it is infact a reboot of the old show.
The story for the first episode is basically the same.

Really the differences seam to be aesthetic and really just fixes to little things from the show before.

Things I feel ambivalent about.
#1: The art. Simply put I don't think the art style is any better or worse then the original. It looks crisper but at the same time they do seam to be a bit thinner. It's a style for the most part and I don't really have a preference.
#2: Hair color... So they seam to have changed the main characters mothers hair color, it was not natural in the original so its not really that noticeable.

Things I liked.
#1: The main character. Usagi seams a little less annoying. And I know its now a nostalgia thing, because I watched the Original episode right before.
#2: The love interest. (Mamoru Chiba (地場 衛 Chiba Mamoru^?, called Darien Shields) In the original english. Was to put in wildly a ASS in the original when he first shows up. In the new version he is a little.... jerkish. but its not nearly as pronounced. The initial attraction to him by our main character as also more notables.
#3: Tuxedo Mask. While he did in fact, just show up and give the heroine a moral boost like in the original, it was actually pretty clear that is was a matter of happen stance, he seamed to actually be there to do stuff on his own.
#4: The art. I know I just said that I was Ambivalent about it. But in places its VERY nice in the new version.

Things I did not like.
#1: There CGI was showing. In some places very badly....
#2: Showing characters to soon. Really one of the great things about the original was that it didn't show you the rest of the cast until they showed up in the show. Not even in the opening. In this one there all there in the opening. This is some one softened by the fact that the second character to be introduced is in school with our main character now, not just "POOF" There there with no warning. I hate transfer students as a excuse.
#3: THE OPENING!
WHERE THE HELL ARE MY SAXOPHONES!
The opening theme to the original was so damn SEXY. I mean it, some of the best Sax I have ever listened to in Anime. And what do we get in this one FUCKING ELECTRIC GUITARS!
Really I dislike almost every part of the opening.....


Ending Thought.
I like it... If it wasent for that DAMN OPENING!
