Evil Sailor Soldiers, Moon Princesses and Awakenings, Oh My!

Cover: Having had all five Sailor Soldiers featured on the previous covers, this volume turns to a more montage of pictures featuring Dark Sailor Mercury (or "Darkury"), Kunzite and the other four Sailor Soldiers. Personally I'm very disappointed with the picture quality here. The shots of Moon, Jupiter, Venus and particularly Mars look like they've just been slapped on the cover with no attempt to blend properly with the rest of the image or even get a good picture of them in the first place.
The back cover is nice as always but the font really lets it down.

The Menus: Naturally the menu focuses on Dark Sailor Mercury this time and features a dark blue colour scheme. Strangely it still has the star animation which seems a bit too happy for the character but it still looks spiffy.

The Chapter Select menus once again feature great photos of production and advertising.

The Special Features: The DVD features the sixth episode of the behind the scene series that appeared on the previous five DVDs. This time around, Sawai is joined by Myu Azama (Sailor Jupiter) and the two offer more anecdotes of working with the different cast and crew. Unfortunately they don't go into their thoughts on Sailor Mercury turning evil (besides the superficial "she was cute and now she's scary" comments) or the turning point episode, Act 24 where Sailor Moon finds out Tuxedo Mask's identity.

The whole thing is fun and entertaining enough but after hearing girly conversations on who they think is the fastest runner and which director they found "scary" it left me longing for just a little bit of real information on the series especially due to how much story is involved in the episodes on this disk.

The Episodes:

Act 21 to Act 24 are all essential viewings as Sailor Mercury is turned evil, Sailor Mars awakens and Sailor Moon finds out who Tuxedo Mask is as the love triangle between them and Hina begins to heat up. All four episodes should be at the top of any Moonie's watch list. If you haven't seen these episode yet, you owe it to yourself to do so asap!
