Sailor Moon Forum

I was always pretty surprised when they showed rather intense images in Sailor Moon. Any one recall any particular ones?

This one made me go OUCH.


This one I totally did not expect the dub to leave in and I thought it was an OMG moment.


But Saturn on the cross totally takes the cake when it comes to shocking. It was possibly the most creepy moment in the series. Wish they had more.


Other than that it would have been awesome to see Saturn eat a baby like the god of the planet she's based on

Crucifixation scenes in anime are always shocking. But this one has to be the most disturbing. The atmosphere is just so grim, and the hands from hell don't help. I'm surprised the dub kept most of this scene on Toonami.

I'd also like to add Urawa's nightmare about attacking Ami, and ripping her clothes off. That scene always freaks me out.

The manga has tons of these. Usagi having a nightmare about Mamoru's face melting. Another of him ripping Chibiusa in two. Then there's the nightmare where everyone dies, and you see Usagi as a rotting corspe.

I think the manga has the most Darkest/Violent/Shocking images in Sailor Moon than the anime

oh you mean like this

I need to start reading the manga again!

I think Saturn's was better than the crystal crosses though -- they seemed so unscathed afterwards. It was weird.

The skeleton hands were surprising for Sailor Moon, yeah.

Don't forget about Sailor Kakyuu's death in the manga! That stab through the chest was pretty brutal.

Dead Mamoru in the manga definitely freaked me out.

oh my

No one was disturbed by this?

Dear God I don't even remember that! I guess it's because it's so scary!

It's not graphically gruesome at all, but in a PGSM scene of Ami's dream, Usagi was slowly pointing a pistol at her face, as seen from the 1st-person perspective of her.

I was
There was something "rape"-ish about it.

Urawa is having a dirty dream

Could write some analyses of his psychology regarding that.

The animators were naughty here.

Wow, I don't even remember that picture with Saturn on the cross. That's just creepy

The R movie was a little violent with everyone smashing into things.

The saturn one is disturbing.

A lot of the things the villains can do seem rape-ish. D:

Hotaru ripping apart that teddy bear used to scare me as a kid.

Diamond and how the amazon trio look at dream mirrors come to mind

This isn't an image but I always feel creeped out listening to Nehelenia's theme song. Also me and my friend agree that the music that plays on the Geneon DVD menus feels a bit ominous.

Oh gosh agreed haha. Creeped me out a teeny bit.

Not sure if these are considered shocking, but whenever I see these pics, I think . Definitely some 'dark' moments.

Which one? The movies have pretty dream-y like music in the menus.

^ The movie menus are exactly what I'm talking about. It feels very foreboding and I get the same creeps as the Nehelenia funeral bell theme music.

^^^ Forgot about the one where the hand comes out to strangle Sailor Moon. Very dark and awesome use of color.

Another dark part is when Hotaru is remembering when she couldn't recall harming her friend at school or killing her goldfish. It was just very depressing and the animation style used was nice. When she's on her dad's lap sobbing and the scenes cut from that image to Tomoe's creepy eye, it gave me the chills.

And while beautiful Saturn's theme was very very dark.

Always like it - also feels a bit like Indian (Hindu) music.

oh yes I likes it too

This image always freaked me out the most, this skeletal Mamoru was hideous, freaky and grusome!

I seriously like, jumped when I scrolled down to see that. O_O;;;
Thank GOD it wasn't in the anime! I probably would have been scared as a child and never watched it again!
