   And I'm sure my 16-year-old fangirl tendencies went into overdrive the   
   first time I saw this episode back in 1997.  I had a 'crush' on him back   
   then.  Ah, the anime crush.  I miss Motoki as he slowly fades from the   
   series.  He was a nice character.

   I think that's the general consensus.  Although, at least now that we've   
   seen more of the dream, he doesn't seem quite as idiotic.  But   
   seriously, couldn't he just *talk* to her?  Tell her what's going on?   
   Usagi is good about respecting other people's wishes... But I guess that   
   would keep them emotionally close in some way therefore not working.  He   
   could have at least told Luna. :p

   I mentioned that to SK when we were watching as well.  Luna, the battle   
   cat!   
      
   Pretty nice job with the emotions by the very senshi seiyuu.  Fukami   
   Rika still has the best 'cry out' of them all.  The tortured way she   
   called out for Sailor Moon was a bit chilling.  And Mercury's sobs when   
   she talked about Sailor Moon being restored by the power of love was so   
   sweet...
