So I was watching some SuperS last night, and was wondering... Who was a better idea Sailor Chibi Moon or Sailor Luna? Both kinda have their ups and down. Sailor Chibi Moon did have about 4 more seasons then Sailor Luna, so we don't know if Sailor Luna could of gotten any better. So I'll break it down...
Sailor Chibi Moon: Chibiusa first arrived in Sailor Moon R after the arrival of the Black Moon. Sent from the future to find the Silver Crystal to restore Crystal Tokyo and save her mother. After saving the future Chibiusa left to go home, but returned shortly after to train as Sailor Chibi Moon.
I really liked Chibiusa in R, she was an interesting twist (being Usagi and Mamoru's daughter). Plus Black Lady rocked. Her return in S was... I dunno, I didn't really like her as much until they introduced Hotaru. Their friendship was very interesting to watch unfold and to see the bond between them really added a new level to the series. I think SuperS she was just way to involved. In Stars she wasn't used to much, but I think just enough with the Nehellenia arc and her depature was a great end to the character.
Sailor Luna: Sailor Luna was introduced to help train the other senshi. She magically changed from her stuffed cat form to a human little girl who with MORE magic powers turns into Sailor Luna! With a varity of fun attacks Sailor Luna aided in training the other Senshi and helping bringing Mercury from the dark side. In the end she was the only senshi to retain her powers.
A very -strange- idea. I guess they neede a child senshi without diving into the entire Chibiusa arc. She brought some cute comical releif to the series but was never fleshed out as much as she coulda been. It was never truly explained (or maybe I missed it) how she was able to become human and Artemis never was.
In the end, I will go with Sailor Chibi Moon. She was just fleshed out alot better and had they looked past the cute factor of Sailor Luna we could have gotten a solid character like Luna was in the anime.
