Sailor Moon's face looks atrocious compared to the rest. It's bad. It's almost as if they can never get it right.

The longer I stare at Sailor Moon's face the more it looks weirder and weirder...

You'd think they would want to make something to sell.

It's funny how that works,usually the ones who hate it the most are the ones who will be vocal about,while the rest who are content with it will silently sit idly by and laugh at the rest. Laughing

Sailor Moon's eyes/mouth really aren't in proportion...

It seems that Usagi's eyes and mouth are too close together compared to the others. Yes, I'm in agreement that the artist could have done better with her face.

And when was a good adaptation the same as an actual good show?
This looks like crap.

The original manga was executed in a different manner, and also often does not look good. Outsourcing such a difficult title to a sub studio overseas took already existing art troubles and amplified them.

The original art itself, even in artbooks meant to showcase it, are still loaded with problems:

Oh…oh dear… Sad

Toei, once more, one must ask:

"What are you thinking?!"

Never mind the show, there is no way in the universe I would have allowed my company to release an end product this lax looking. Hard to excuse any of this.
