I think Mari is good at copying Itoh, at least she does a good job with the close ups. The group shots are kinda bleh, though.
I'm kidding

Oh my! my! my!



I like when you guys get passionate!
I love to watch :kiss:

Time for #170 and it's... Ando's worst episode!
Really even on his own design, it's off model!
The guy was like, "You don't wanna fire me? I'll fire myself LOL!"

Which is a pity because this is a very important episode and it's super interesting.
Both Ami and Haruka have individual moments and development and Haruka ends up respecting Ami.

Kagawa should have been on this episode.

So there's not much to look at in this episode except that it has gorgeous backgrounds! :clap::clap::clap:




















Panty shot of course because Ando.




Why are you all so FUGLY?!?!?!?!

"Dusk is setting..."


"By dawn, our fate will be decided."


"It's nothing ~ If you pull an all nighter, you can ace any test!"

Oh no, they gave Michiru the stink face...

"We may not know what kind of trap lies ahead."


"It doesn't matter!" "We have the duty to protect our Prince and Princess!"




"We must also break the spell that binds all the people of the city!"

Good Lord! Tokyo got wreacked!



"And as well as to safeguard our future!"

"Welcome to you, Princess of the White Moon!"


"You truly are a foolish woman. You whole-heartedly fell into my trap."


"Is that man so precious to your heart?"


"I still remember... the spectacle of you throwing away your life for the ones you love!"


"But miracles don't happen twice!"


"Those are nice eyes! It soothes my heart seeing your eyes filled with hatred and sadness!"














"Curse you all!!! They have invaded my domain after following the Princess of the White Moon!"


"I won't allow such thing! I will rob her of all her loved ones!"

It's interesting to see that the original pairings were different.

Pluto fell with Saturn and Chibi-Moon.




While Jupiter and Venus were together.










"911, what's your emergency? :kiss:"
"Hello, I'd like to report someone masquerading as Haruka Tenoh. It's a crime for the eyes."















Poor Ami...

And Haruka realizes that Michiru is always pushing herself to pace herself to Haruka.
Michiru is the best :bow:

Gorgeous backgrounds w/ Ando subjects - what a nice combination of huge contrasts! :oh my: There must be a deep artistic purpose for that! :cool:

Baby Ami!









"What a waste... I intended to imprison you in this maze and see you die a slow and miserable death!"



Nice zoom in and MAH GAWD THOSE BOOBZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





"I reveal my face-down Trap Card! Mirror Wall!!! Now all of your attacks are reflected back at you! Hohohoho!!!"








"Oh? Is this what you filthy peasants call beach volley? Yes, I've heard of it, quite amusing indeed! Hohohohoho!!!"




"Oh no! It's too big for my face! Oh no, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!"

"One by one, I'm going to torture of all you to death!"

Ami was always such a good kid.



"That's right! I have my own way of fighting!"



"I loathe her eyes..."


"They are eyes of those who refuse to give up! Don't you dare look at me like that!"






"This is the best that I can do! This is the way I fight!"


"Hurry! I won't hold long!"


"Aim on top of her!"


"We're all the same! We all want to protect our Princess and save Usagi!"

Nice moment but y'all so fugly!

Michiru's got some real volume on her hair!





These two are the comedic duo we never knew we needed! :rofl:



"So what do we do now?~"


"We'll go your way..."




"The two of you are really close ~ Just like Uranus and me ::love::"


"Please don't ship us..."


"There's someone over there!"


"You lasses will be the next ones to taste my delightful nightmares!"






"What did you say?!"



The music, the tension, the slow fading into black = amazing way to end an episode!

Love that back bow error. You get to see it also in a shot in the SuperS film.

Don't understand why the fandom don't ship them. :usagi: X :rei: doesn't work for me.

And yet this episode is still better than whole Crystal S1-2 :kiss:

Unrelated to this episode but your reviews made me realize that some animators were really trying hard to emulate Itoh’s style in Stars, while she was not there anymore, it’s funny. Even Tamegai in his first episode is more Itoh-ish than Tamegai-ish :3

Perhaps her art style was seen by all to be so good that everyone wanna emulate it like a standard to pursue? lol

Seriously, who let Ando near these episodes? Hideous! I still love the wild pairings they went with for the senshi. We needed more of these interactions.
Too few in the anime, and any time more than one girl was in the manga it's just them screaming "Purincessu!" in unison.

Ew! Ew! Uranus has the most lantern jaw and Ami looks like one of those ball monsters from SuperS.

See? Anyone who may accuse me of never saying mean things about the 90s anime and rarely nice things about the manga?
Only one of those is true.

Her head part would make an excellent exterior design for a Mercury P - 30th-century Mercury should also make one looking like that for herself. :)
