Sailor Moon SuperS

Japanese Opening 1

First Appearance: Episode 128

The first opening of the SuperS season is a much more light hearted opening than those used in the previous season with a very stylised and funky look using world maps, circus and card game imagery to give it a cool fresh look.

Something that can be quite surprising for viewers, even after multiple viewings is the opening scene featuring Super Sailor Moon, Super Sailor Mini Moon and all the Inners completely naked, flying towards the camera and transforming in real time.

While nudity had been seen before in the series and there was definitely more to come, it had never appeared in the opening credits on a weekly basis before and despite it not being a cause for controversy when the series first aired most new cartoon series, even in Japan nowadays would not allow it despite the nudity being "kiddified". Check out the transformation scenes in a new girls' anime such as Fresh Pretty Cure for an example of how Japanese censorship has become Westernised.

This first version of the SuperS opening is the last time Sailor Venus, Mercury, Mars and Jupiter would appear in an opening in their regular forms.

Sailor Moon SuperS would also be the final season of the anime whose opening credits would use Moonlight Densetsu as it's theme song.
