Amazon.com:
High-pitched, relentlessly fast paced, and filmed in eye-gouging gumball colors, this video series combines two previously released dubbed episodes from the Japanese animated series, along with a couple of new ones. The adventures of a group of schoolgirl superheroes, Sailor Moon is a lighthearted kiddy variation on a ubiquitous Japanese subgenre, stories of alienated adolescents granted paranormal powers and enlisted on the side of virtue in apocalyptic struggles across space and time. Imported to the U.S. in an attempt to create a post-Power Rangers franchise for girls, the show never became a mainstream megahit in the states, although it still has passionate fans (thanks to airings on the Cartoon Network). The chirpy, giggly tone may be off-putting, but the level of visual imagination (and the self-sufficient courage of the young heroines) can be exhilarating, especially when kids and parents watch together. This first volume kicks off with the 'secret origin' episode, 'A Moon Star Is Born,' in which Tokyo middle-school student Serena is transformed into the title character by the occult power of a mysterious locket. She acquires a cute sidekick (a talking cat named Luna), and in the three succeeding episodes she begins to assemble her support team of spunky Sailor Scouts, with names like Sailor Mercury, Sailor Jupiter, and Sailor Venus. In the second episode, 'Talk Radio,' a phantom radio program is somehow connected with the door-to-door delivery of flowers whose fumes put people to sleep. Also includes the episodes 'Slim City' and 'So You Want to Be a Superstar,' with a total running time of 90 minutes. These edited shows are appropriate for fans age 5 to 12. --David Chute

Rating:  - What can I say...
What can I say... other then that it is 2008, I am in my mid 20's and I still love everything about Sailor Moon. If you enjoyed watching Sailor Moon in the mornings... early 90's, then you will enjoy all the Edited VHS videos.
Rating: - Very good condition. Hope to find more
I love sailor moon and was happy to watch the old episodes I missed. Season 2 is harder to find, but I hope to complete the collection.
Rating:  - This Vhs is good!
This Vhs tells how Sailor moon got her powers. It's good but i like vol.2 better, i like the other volume's better cuz it funny when Serena and Rae fight. But it is relly good anyway. The episods on this Vhs are ep.1 A moon star is born ep.2 Talk radio ep.3 Slim city and ep.4 So you want to be a superstar. If you are a Sailor moon fan you will relly enjoy it, i did. I also like the anime's Naruto, Zatch bell, Bobobo-bo-bo-bobo, Tenchi Muyo, Dragon ball z, and One piece.
Rating:  - Not the real Sailor Moon
I like Sailor Moon in Japanese with English subtitles. But I used to own this DVD and I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw it in Japanese.
Before even had it in Japanese I decided to sell this in a garage sale because it was too babyish and it was getting boring to watch it.
Then I got the Japanese version and saw how much they had changed. Usagi's name was changed to Serena, Ami's was Amy, Rei's was Raye, Makoto's was Lita, and Minako was Mina. Naru's was Molly, Umino's was ... Read More
