heavenly_pearlSailor Moon Crystal's Anime 4th Season Revealed As 2-Part Film Project
Man, I was really looking foward to an actual anime season. I don't get what it is about the Dead Moon Arc that makes people want to mess with it when adapting it to other mediums. The majority of fans consider it the best part of the manga, so why can't we ever have a real true adaptation of it (as much as I do love SuperS and Amour Eternal)? On the other hand, a twelve or thirteen episode season would be about six to six and a half hours, so if the movies are, say, about two-and-a-half hours long, maybe they won't cut too much and can still remain fairly true to the manga. Plus, it could be really gorgeously animated with a movie budget... I just don't know what to feel. Cautiously optimistic, but kinda disappointed?
