Much like yesterday's episode, today's was done rather well. Most of the dialogue was intact, and the voices sounded SLIGHTLY better. Unfortunately, there were some rather stupid cuts, but all things put aside, it was a good episode. |
Wow, another well done episode! I think that Kaori Knight is a rip off my nickname, MarioKnight, for some reason, lol. The only thing in this episode I didn't really like was the Mina punching Artemis cut and the strange cut of the daimon attacking the girl with her tail and the tail slammed in the door cut, but the confusing keeping of the pieces coming back. If I hadn't seen the orginal, I would've been really confused. But besides those two things, I loved todays episode. Oh! Almost frogot, Princess Serentity's voice was AWESOME!!! Why can't the VA talk like (or close to) that for Serena? *sigh* |
*ahem* am I starting to see some tiny mistakes? Kaori/Kaorinite, Heart Snatchers/Daimon Pods? And Gods, the mother of them all...."My mother is allergic to cats." I was angry beyond belief when I heard that. Why why why why why!?! If they were adament about not showing she lived alone, they could have said something about cats not being allowed in her apartment building? *sigh* oh the disappointment.. However!! I was very pleased with the things that were exact with the original. Some of the attacks, the "lovely"...very nice. and as Dan said..Princess Serenity's voice was AWESOME!!! |
(2 seconds) When Usagi and Mamoru are sitting on the bench, there is a shot of some pigeons feeding on the ground. This shot was cut short a little.
|
(4 seconds) When Usagi is trying to persuade the girls to take in some cats, Minako says she can't because Artemis is too much of a hassle already and Artemis gets mad and Minako smacks him. Minako smacking Artemis and his reaction was cut. This cut kinda got on my nerves, as it wasn't really a violent scene, it was actually quite humerous, but I guess they didn't want kids to "imitate" minako and start hitting their cats......but who would be stupid enough to do that???

The daimon retained her original name, only instead of Neko-Neru, it was Neko-Nell, which is kinda understandable since "r"s and "l"s are pronounced the same way in Japanese.
|
(5 seconds) Right after the daimon appears and the girl runs, the daimon trys to catch her. She extends her tail and wraps in around the girls neck, but the girl slams a door on her tail which causes it to fall apart into puzzle peices. The daimon follows and re-attatches her tail.
Now this is a very interesting cut, because in the dub, it just looks like the girl is running away. The shot of the daimon extending her tail and wrapping it around the girls neck is cut, but interestingly enough, the shot of the daimon picking up the puzzle peices that were once her tail was KEPT. I'm sure this must of confused many dub fans. Click Here to See the Girl Gettin' Strangled

Much in the same way as the last episode, the scene of the daimons star was enlarged and shortened to avoid shots of her pantyline. It was done again in the same fashion later on in the episode.
See how it was supposed to be seen!
|
In the same way as the "tree" shot from the last episode, when Tuxedo Mask attacked the diamon and the daimon hit the wall, the screen was painted white and then faded back to the normal animation.
