   Chris, please accept my sincere thanks for sharing this project with   
   us. I have seen all of the episodes over time, but I have never   
   watched the entire series beginning to end before. Certainly this   
   effort will become one of the major afs-m icons right alongside the   
   Otaku Wars.

   >that the ordering goes Stars>S>Supers=R>Classic (a tie between SS and   
   >R, in other words).   
      
   I would have to say that my preference for the seasons has remained   
   somewhat the same. Stars=SuperS>Super>Classic>R, but there is not a   
   whole lot of difference between the top and bottom of the list. The   
   last two episodes of Classic were incredibly moving to me as well as   
   episode 200. My least favorite was the Ann and Ail arc.   
      
   I have now watched all of Sailor Moon in most of its various NA   
   interpretations. The English dub broadcast of the original 65 episodes   
   with the out of order Doom Tree arc; The 17 "lost" episodes when they   
   completed R; The broadcast version of Super and SuperS; The VKLL   
   fansubs, the RM fansubs, all of the movies both subtitled and dubbed,   
   all of the specials and even the short-lived Super fanDUB starring   
   some of our own afs-m members. The only thing that had been missing   
   was watching the unedited Super and SuperS dub releases and now I have   
   completed that as well.

   I don't have those series, so I will have to beg off. However, I'm   
   still interested in watching PGSM. To that effect, check out my next   
   post.   
      
   In closing, this has been a great time. It has reminded me all over   
   again just why I love this series and what makes it so different from   
   so many other offerings out there.   
      
   Thanks again, Chris.
