Wow. I have mixed feelings as first saw the Crystal S1's design, that really don't know it is a TOOT or BOOT.
Indeed, the design this time looks better than S3, at least no hair bubbles and the skirts look nicer.
But same as S3 that being too MOE makes Sailor Moon Crystal less Sailor Moon.
The "faithfulness" seems completely gone that it looks nothing like Naoko's style & character design in manga.
But I can imagine Sailor Moon in the S5 last battle looks as moe and young as Madoka while talking some heavy stuff. lol
Edited:
I am definitely grateful that BANDAI, TOEI and Naoko still see the value of Sailor Moon and launch the 20th, 25th and probably 30th anniv. projects. But the execution seems a miss to me. 90s' illustrations reused, 'QUALITY' figures, and the whole crystal thing.
