Sailor Moon Eternal Review
Sailor Moon Eternal brings forward all the pretty characters for yet another amazing arc. The first thing to note about the film is that it remains loyal to the manga. Next, there is good drama and character development that will instantly get any Sailor Moon fan indulged in the series. The movie is filled with nostalgia. It entertains its viewers with occasional gags blended well with the background. The art style is pretty cute. However, the animation is lacking in many parts. It could be pointed out as lazy animation on behalf of Toei Animation. However, the brilliant voice cast still makes up for it. Another thing that is a bit bothersome about the movie is its pacing. The first part starts at a good pace and then grows slowly over time. However, the second part instantaneously takes over at a rushed pace. Yet, despite the flaws, Sailor Moon Eternal excels at many parts of the plot. The plot will get you emotional at times. Additionally, some very cute and wholesome moments will win the hearts of all Sailor Moon fans. An overall interesting and fun-to-watch movie, Sailor Moon Eternal is something that cannot be missed.
