Original Sailor Moon vs Crystal

[frubam]

Recently I've been watching some older anime I watched as a kid and, after watching some of the old Sci-Fi channel stuffs, among various other shows, I think I want to try and revisit Sailor Moon with current eyes. Personally, I feel nostalgia would have a more potent sway and would go with the original, since the voices, dialogue, etc. all help me to enjoy the series more. For example, I loved the old Streamline dub of Vampire Hunter D(last thing I watched) vs the Sentai one and even remembered some of the classic lines from it. That enhanced my enjoyment of the rewatch. But I can't necessarily discount the shiny coat of pain Crystal has, even if it brings in a new voice cast, and the fact that Crystal might adhere more to the source material than the original, potentially being a better/more cohesive experience.

So which do you think I should watch?

Go with the original, Crystal is a cheaply made cash grab.

Wow, the comparisons completely sold me. I thought the designs in the new one would be better, but I like the more rounded face for Serena(yeah, I use the old english dub names =0b) and even if its not canon, I loved the antagonistic approach they had with one another in the beginning in their normal forms, but opposite when transformed. The animation looks smoother and more expressive in the original too, not to mention the dialogue was more amusing. Yeah, I think I"ll go with the original choice for this. Appreciate the suggestion =03!
