I stayed up until 5am this morning, rip me.
Actual Things I said on twitter while watching:
MAMORU GLASSES
DID THEY MAKE QUEEN SERENITY HAVE YELLOW HAIR WHAT
I REPEAT, THEY MADE HARUNA-SENSEI BLONDE
NARU IS SO CUTE HELP ME
DAYTIME TUX MAMORU YAAAAAAS
SHIT HE'S LIKE 500X MORE ATTRACTIVE WEARIN THAT TUXEDO IN ANIMATED FORM RIP ME
TUX DIDN'T MAKE A SHITTY SPEECH
I generally thought it was okay. The series kind of runs on an abridged formula, with lots of cutting and jumping around to different scenes to it felt really choppy at times. It just didn't flow as well as the original first episode, you know?
Also I'm not lying when I say Mamoru is like 500x more bishounen than I can handle, rip in pieces, me. I'm going to cry I don't know how I'll make it through with him being so damn bishounen, my inner 7 year old's crushing so hard right now, also dat voice, yaaaaas.
In case you haven't seen the henshin sequence yet, it's done in CGI and pretty poorly imo - like it looks really cheaply done; I hate to imagine how poorly aged it will be in just a few years. Also, dem Betty Spaghetty arms.
The episode felt kind of sub-par. I've adjusted to the faces on the characters and I actually kind of like them now, and the animation is really great I think.
Other things noted:
everyone thinks Shingo is the cutest shota, expect increase in Shingo fans for literally no reason besides bein cute shota
JADEITE LOOKS SO YOUNG
Ikuko's hair is a light lavender color
Luna's face looks weird; also, not hearing Keiko Han's voice comin from her is slightly offputting but I'll adjust, I suppose
Yoma changing her appearance out from that of Naru's mom is like 500x less frightening than the original; in general, the design on her was extremely toned down and came off as less scary than the original
This has been a Long Post brought to you by your resident me.
TL;DR: wasn't worth staying up until 5am to watch but it's still fun alsO MAMORU IS 2BISHOUNEN4ME
