Lol, Didnt Naoko do this with Artemis watching Minako in the shower and there was a comment about the way he "looks" at her, which made you think our white cat had a little crush?

I mean, it's been said that Luna is supposed to be about the same age as Usagi (a year younger I think?) so the same should apply to Artemis too, right?

Even though Human Luna and Artemis look older though, Luna definitely acts more mature as well. So for me it was natural to believe that Luna was older from the beginning.

I would assume so. He's probably watched Minako plenty of times too because well, he's Artemis lol.

It's been good to finally see him in human form.

I wonder if Luna, Artemis, and Diana are the only surviving people of their planet or were there possibly other survivors who were reborn as cats on Earth or whatever? My never find out.... nyan!

That explains why I was kind of uncomfy when I watched the Sailor Moon S movie way back when I could access the subtitle version between a teen Luna and an older man like Kakeru (let alone Luna being a cat at the time). I think DIC saw this as well and felt the same way, thus they went for the "Older Luna" route on purpose when they dubbed the series. At least that's why she sounded like that.

Luna and Artemis may be the same age as Usagi and Minako, but they are far more mature.

Those girls surely cause them a lot of trouble.

There's an interview with Hisashi Kagawa where he seems to say that he didn't know this before working on the S movie, considering how Luna is constantly lecturing and looking after Usagi. Naoko Takeuchi might have intended for them to be the same age, but it never came off like that imo.

Here's the particular quote (cleaned up from google translate.)

I was very nervous working on "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon S The Movie Kaguya Hime no Koibito" as it was my first time as a movie animation director. I found Takeuchi-sensei's idea to humanize Luna to be interesting. I also thought that Takeuchi-sensei's character draft was "very cute." My image of Luna was older than Usagi and the others, and I didn't think of her as feminine. Luna herself feels like a caretaker in the series, and there were scenes where she preached to Usagi-chan.

Maybe Luna ages in cat years...

 

[rgveda99]

Also and were in cryostasis for years in the 90's.

 

[Star Angel Haruki]

Oh yeah, the S movie...he thought Luna was older, huh? Is that why they decided to give her nipples during her transformation to show this despite the series not really being that "talented" prior?

 

[sapphire91]

While they might be supposed to look younger, they are actually very old creatures. Plus they are aliens. I guess they stopped aging once they hit let's say 15 but their brains were developijg and maturing, unlike Chibi Usa that stopped growing while very young. I read somewhere that Helios is supposed to look like a 12 year old. But then all the girls in the manga look way older than they are.

 

[Yamoon]

I always considered Luna much older than Usagi... anyway she’s a cat so years are different for them I guess .

Or should I bring Sailor Luna on the table LOL

 

[JunoDX]

Luna and Artemis to me always were like people in their 40s...or several hundreds of years old

 

[Star Angel Haruki]

I think I agree with her aging in cat years but not having the same life expectancy of Earth cats because she is an alien one, perhaps?

With her being the same age as Usagi currently, Luna is either in her 90's or was given to Princess Serenity in the past and put in cryo when she was just 2 years old, considering Serenity herself died at 14.

Of course, Luna may be very smart though considering she's an alien cat but I think she had to have many years of experience and exposure to learn all that she knows.

 

[yaya_ikuto]

i think is much like the 90s anime case, in the manga they are the same age even you see that in some interaction, but in the 90s you think luna is much older because of her behavior thats what happen to with mamoru, in the 90s you see how mamoru acted in thing he is much more older than usagi

You're talking about Human Luna's transformation sequence like it's a porno. Where's that sort of attitude towards Naoko's drawing of a topless Usagi posing like a playgirl?
