   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.

   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)
