Her VA is Nishihara Kumiko, who       >I only recognize from the Sakura Taisen series (she plays Iris).              Once again, we have a religious figure associated with a boxer MOTD,       just as in episode 26 of the first season. The original Japanese       version really emphasized the nun's love of God, but the dub rewrote       most of that to downplay the religious aspect and had her praising her       nonexistent children's chorus instead.              Minako's lecture to Artemis as she was looking out the window was       priceless. It is definitely one of those top moments in Sailor Moon.       The English actress did a fairly good job in this regard, but she did       not come close to that gently caustic tone of the Japanese actress.              >Venus' speech in this episode was taken from another episode -- you       >can tell because it was one of the Ando episodes.              Which really emphasized the huge improvement in the character designs       for SuperS.              I'm starting to think that SuperS is exploring the different aspects       of love with Chibiusa serving as the protagonist.              Here are some examples:       E128: Unazuki - As quoted from Chibiusa, Just because you're a girl       doesn't mean you should wait for your prince to come on a white horse.       Sometimes you have to get on your own white horse and go find your       prince charming.       E129: Reika - The issues of a long-distance relationship       E130: Ikuko-Mama - A mother's love for her children       E131: Naru - A dedicated, honest love       E132: Saori - An unrequited love       E133: The nun - Love of God       E134: Tomoko - Love of literature (Just watched this one today)              --       Phoenix       www.phoenixanime.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
