I was wondering if anyone thinks its a good idea if Sailor Moon were redubbed. It would be cool to hear the original Japanese names in English and maybe better voice actors.

I personally would not like to see a newly dubbed version. I rather stick to Japanese, I am actually a fan of the dub, it isn't as bad as it could of been. I enjoy some things they did. Besides it would be way to pricey to dub it and sadly its dropping its popularity.

Personally, I dont like the English dubbed.. the voice for 'Serena' esp was annoying.. >.> The dubbed really made Sailormoon look like a childish 'cartoon'.. and because only the English dubbed was aired on TV in Australia; this anime established a reputation for being a show for little kids, with a dumb plot about some crybaby.  Of course, I love the anime, despite the annoying voices... But the dubbed ones in Cantonese are very good; same with the original.. I dont think they should redub it though.. since sailormoon is losing its popularity (it has been running since 1992) I think people should watch Live Action XD Or watch Sailor Stars in Japanese, and English subs  |

I agree with Jen. Sadly the fan base is falling, and the live action did help bring it up, but sadly by not signing on for a second season, the fan base has fallen again. I doubt Sailor Moon would get the ratings that it would need to survive on English air waves.

Hm.. I would love them to keep the original Japanese names…better that “mina” and “Lita” for example…but there’s also uncertainty about the pronounication…it might be off~ then it might sound dodgey.
Maybe if the dubbed version was never out, and u suggest it was done by better voice actresses….maybe yes..lol

Honestly i never saw the english dub of Sailor Moon but accourding to some internet friends of mine it really sucked! They made it for little kids when in fact it's an anime for all ages. I think they really shouldn't try dubbing it again, what if it gets worse? |

I liked the English dub. I was like..I thin about eight or nine when I started watching it. So. XD That's just me. It helped me like anime, so I guess that's a good thing for the english dub right? Though with having the dub, I did find the seasons more annoying to listen and watch, but still enjoyable. ^^" I don't really think Sailor Moon needs another redubbing.

I hated the English dub. It really dumbed it down, which is perhaps why its popularity in England never really got off the ground. But then, England is a pretty much non-anime country (except for that Pokemon and then later Digimon boom a few years ago), you have to go to very specialist shops to buy the manga and only the first season is available on Dvd... ok, so it annoys me, lol, I'll stop going on about it so much...
