I am not sure, not time line has been said but it takes place before the series. Its before Usagi gets her power, but After Mamoru gets his... maybe we learn about how Mamrou becomes Tuxedo Kamen.
also The release date is March 25th 2005.

Hopefully ActZero will meet out *high* expectations..XD I've been watching some Acts of Sailormoon Live Action again, and I love it! What I found interesting was that the senshi did the opposite as to what they're meant to in order to awaken their true powers. Like Makoto thought she was suppose to be alone, whereas she was not alone, and thats why her power awoke (Motoki was with her XD) Rei thought she was pathetic asking Usagi to help her with Karaoke, and that she would never awaken if she keeps relying on others XD What was Ami lacking? What was Usagi lacking?

I think Usagi was lacking self insurance, she kept relying on everyone around her to fight but she finally awoke when she had to fight by her self against Ami-chan.

Oh yeh, that was probably it.. So what was Ami's? The whole part with her becoming *spoiler spoiler* Dark Mercury basically covered her significance with her power awakening- cause i dont think it actually awakened.. >.> It only showed a bit, when she used her power, to get back her tamborine.. In the Final Act (49) *spoiler* *spoiler* when their tamborines turned into power-ranger-looking weapons, have their powers fully awoken? ,, How come they appear so weak?? They couldnt even beat those guys ... I still dont get why Princess Sailormoon..is so evil-like ><

Not sure..it seems the main problem she had was the reason she became Dark Mercury..her loneliness (not that's supposed to be Jupiter) Princess Sailormoon's people were really annoying....

Hehe, Powerranger weapons.
SPOILER!In the special act the weapons are stronger and do more damage. END SPOILER The weaposn were strong since they did help when fighting Moon's monsters. But in the end didn't help at all.
I agree about Mercury, that sounds about right.

I watched the Special Act, and I didn't see how stronger the weapons were o.o They didn't do much with them XD Just waved it around for 2 seconds..hehe... This might be the reason for making Mars not appear... since they only have a pair of daggers, in which Venus used (just like how Mars used it on behalf of Mars in the Final Act)

I read an article which was written about PGSM; in April 2004; and that was a while back.
I don't exactly agree with it... The fighting scenes weren't that bad..was it? I think the PGSM Live Action series made Sailormoon more popular~

I thought it was a really brave move for them to have 15-16 year old girls actually play them, so it would be more realistic. One of the strongest points about this Live Action series that I really enjoy watching is the change in storyline..character development and human conflicts between different personalities andamong the senshi themselves.
I think that review is under-rating SMLA. They have to consider the fact that Sailormoon was originally a “magic-girl” type anime..what do they expect from a Live Action series? It must follow along those lines of graphics etc. Without transformation sequence and attacks, who would call it Sailormoon?
No way..the costumes are professionally done, they beat heaps of cosplayers other there. I think the costumes look great!
I gotta agree with this comment : )
Another very positive point about the series.
Let’s see the US try to do a better job -.-

Let’s see the US try to do a better job -.- lol... Remember the US version? .. Thank goodness that never came about.. I agree; the article made SMLA sound crap or something.. I was hooked onto the series from the very first Act; or should I say, opening credit? I personally think the young actors were great.. it made the series more enjoyable to know that Usagi and the others are teenagers..

It is Christmas night. Popular idol Aino Minako is all alone, lighting a candle and looking up at the night sky, when suddenly a white, stuffed toy cat falls from above. The toy introduces himself as Artemis and transforms Minako into the champion of justice Sailor V! Half a year later, a string of jewelry shop robberies occurs, and when Sailor V appears during the incidents, the media begins to pay her notice. One day, Tsukino Usagi and her friends plan to "transform" into Sailor V in order to protect the jewelry shop owned by the mother of her friend, Osaka Naru. When night falls and darkness settles, a band of thieves make their appearance. Usagi and her friends are dressed up as Sailor V! But Usagi is captured by Ajito, one of the thieves! At the last minute, Usagi swallows the key to the jewelry case... The leader of the thieves, Cutie Kenko, puts Usagi inside a magic box, intending to saw her in half in order to get hold of the key that she has swallowed. And the savior who appears before Usagi...is the beautiful sailor-suited Senshi Sailor V!! Starring: Komatsu Ayaka (Aino Minako/Sailor V) Yamaguchi Kappei (Artemis) and IZAM (Cutie Kenko) Featuring: Shibue Jouji (Chiba Mamoru/Tuxedo Kamen) Sawai Miyuu (Tsukino Usagi) Hama Chisaki (Mizuno Ami) Kitagawa Keiko (Hino Rei) Azama Myuu (Kino Makoto) With: Kawabe Cheiko (Osaka Naru) Kiyoura Natsumi (Kimura Momoko) Hirai Aiko (Abe Kanami) Matsunutsa Moeko (Kusaka Hina) Kubodera Akira (Kuroi) Endou Yonutso (Shiroi) Matsumoto Hiroyuki (Akai) Masuo Jun (Hanako) And: Keiko Han (Luna) Thought you guys would like to know whats going on and who will pop up! source: www.shingetsu-pgsm.net/ www.toei.co.jp/tv/ www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-22841/

Mamoru (Shibue Jouji) and Hina (Matsunutsa Moeko) + Mamoru (Shibue Jouji) and Usagi (Sawai Miyuu ) Yep, the loving Hina makes an appearnce in the all new Act. ZERO. Hina's last episode in the series was act 26, giving her a 10 episode appearnce on the show. Since this is based on before the series, its only natural that Hina would pop up. Its still unclear on wheater she will have a large role or not. Police? Thats what it looks like. Act ZERO, like the Sailor V manga, appeares to have a nice pile of cops to add. They may just be extras or they may play large roles. As many of you know, Sailor V befriended a cop in the Manga, and that could happen in the special. This gives us new clues to how close the new act may play to the manga. Dead Moon Circus Leader, Cutie Kenko (IZAM)

Wow.. I forgot about Hina..lol... She was a nice character~ lucky she wasnt some annoying girl she could have been, so obsessed with Mamoru ^^;;
The cops would probably have a role; but I hope they dont play a huge role.. cause we wanna see our Moonie cast!
...Did u say Dead Moon Circus? XD....lol...

:DI guess I forgot to mention that. The bad guys for the act are called the Dead Moon Circus... original huh? I guess it fits since they seem to be some sort of circus, but I guess that means no Amazon Quartet.... Moonie cast... hmm... I know Minako and Usagi get big roles, and Ami gets a nice role but I beleive Rei and Makoto just get cameos.
