Sailor Moon

Opening Credits 3

After the death of Sailor Venus in Act 47 and with the series drawing to a close, a special third opening was produced to run during the opening of Act 48.

The main theme song begins playing as Usagi hugs Mamoru and the main title appears on the screen. Surprisingly though we are then taken back to the episode to see Mamoru and Usagi talking while the song continues to play in the background.

As the song reaches it's second verse, the opening credits then continue as normal though with several cool differences.

Ammong them are the new Sailor Venus character screen which now shows her ghostly form to reflect the character's current status.

Another change is the karaoke scenes which were completely reshot to exclude Sailor Venus and include Sailor Luna. It's fun to see how much the girls have grown over the year and also interesting to actually hear their singing of the theme song.

As usual the opening credits end with the same shot of all five main Sailor Soldiers which makes you wonder why this wasn't reshot to include Sailor Luna.

The whole idea behind this third opening is rather cool though and it's great to think that the producers and writers cared enough about the show to make an extra opening when the show was two episodes away from ending.
