It depends where they want to go with the show but, personally, I wouldn't want any of the above, lol.
Sawano's bombasticness and Kajiura's melancholic monotony are not Sailor Moon to me. Sagisu's Berserk/Eva choirs annoy the shit out of me so if I heard that in Sailor Moon I'd flip out. Takanashi is stuck in his mediocre franchise soundtrack mode with Narutow/Fairy Tale/Precure, I don't think he would be capable of delivering an impressive OST. Then again I loved SHI-KI OST... Yea, do another horror OST instead of SM. :] I wouldn't mind Naoki Sato but if it were up to me I'd maybe go with... Toshihiko Sahashi. Out of animu composers that come to my head his style is probably the closest to Arisawa's original SM. Then again I'm not sure if I would want a rehash of old music either... so it really goes back to what they want to do with this show. Last edited by Horse; 2013-01-28 at 13:53. |

Given that the idol group Momoiro Clover Z will be singing the OP I think that already tips us off to the style of music the new anime will have. My guess is that they'll go for a cheery, lighthearted tone for the BGM. If that is the case it does worry me a little, because I don't want this new show to turn into a children's anime like Smile Precure. Hopefully they'll preserve some of the darker aspects of the manga if indeed the new anime will adhere to the manga plot line.

I believe that while those music artists have their distinctive styles, they can still create something suitable for Sailor Moon as well as giving it their own touch. Whatever they produced for previous works doesn't necessarily mean their new works will totally have that same feel.

By the way...I haven't read sailor moon, does it even have a "dark aspect"? If sailor moon is to be remaked, they should either faithful to the manga....
OR just like the movie batman that completely remaked into dark night the sailor moon could be remaked into a show that have a much more darker aspect...but not as grim dark as madoka... |

The manga, indeed, has dark content in LOTS; the anime was a sugary-coated, pink, fairy-tale interpretation of the manga. |

I don't get all these "manga is superior" arguments. In my view, both media failed in the long run since they became stale. |

*shrugs* Well for me I think the Sailor Moon manga is one of the best I have read so far. And I definitely prefer it over the piles of Cliche Mangas (and anime) out there. I'm personally getting sick of Highschool stories, Harem stories, and stories where the main lead is either an ass, idiot, or Tsundere (I think I'm the only male Manga/anime reader & watcher that absolutely *hates* Tsunderes!).
After browsing through various anime and mangas for well over 13 years, I find myself coming back to the Sailor Moon manga and enjoying it as much as I did when I first picked it up. The Anime hasn't aged well, I'll admit, but the Manga will always remain a timeless classic. And having said that, I know some will laugh at me. But that's how I feel about the series. Quote:

There were some grim moments in the anime as well, it's more that they were different than the ones in the manga rather than a question of removing. The two works are effectively separate because the manga and its respective season of anime were made at the same time, with little chance to coordinate the two. Then again, Ikuhara and Igarashi were a lot more interested in exploring their own ideas of how to tell the story than following Takeuchi's vision.

That's what we all would like to tell ourselves, but sadly, Sailor Luna is a very different entity from Sailor Moon. Sailor Luna is quite possibly the most horrifying entity in the entire Sailor Moon franchise, and I'm not sure how anyone thought that she would be a good idea. On the other hand, story elements like Dark Mercury, and greater involvement from the sub-villains were a great idea.

That said, despite the differences, the anime already covered the story of the manga, so I expect original material or a completely new retelling. |

hard call in my book. sailor moon has far more raw power but the precure all have close-combat skills along with super forms. i give it to precure because sailor moon never uses her full power until the last minute and saturn just can't use hers. they are the top two

Sailor Moon by a longshot - only Heartcatch Precure is as good as Sailor Moon, and it has nowhere near as much cultural footprint.

Saillors Jupiter and Uranus (and perhaps Mars and Neptune) are the potental close in fighters. Mercury is usually support (with perhaps Neptune as defense to Uranus' offense). Venus and Moon seem to be ranged (with Mars to some extent, though I think Mars can take the most punishement of the original group). Pluto and Saturn are the "You want to end the Universe?" powers (mixed with Moon it becomes "You want to Remake the Universe?"). Most have serious Area Effect weaponry later in the series.
Chibiusa is the only one with limited power due to age. Her role in combat tends to be either comic relief or support for Moon.

Plus, in the manga she doesn't need to act as support. Much like the other Senshi, Chibi-usa has enough power to defeat enemies by herself (her Pink Sugar Heart Attack is only for comic effect in the anime, but if my memories serve correctly, it one-shot of the of Witches 5 in the manga. Dunno if it was one of the Witches 5, but she killed someone with it in the S arc).

Well, since I beat Assassin's Creed III a little bit over a week ago, I've not really had a game to play... But, since this topic has been getting me re-excited about Sailor Moon stuff, I've decided to break out the Snes9x emulator and restart Sailor Moon: Another Story for SNES.
Really hope we get some decent news about this soon. It's driving me nuts to not know what this will be like!
