The anime will have a stage program at the AnimeJapan 2016 event on March 26. The stage program will announce more information on the third season, as well as a new project.


So they'll have another project related to Sailor Moon? Sounds like it might not be something anime related though.

Looks too marshmallowy for me. I loved the 1st Crystal's designs that imitated Takeuchi's beautiful sharp designs.

They haven't been doing a good job imitating her style in the first place so I welcome the 'marshmallowy'-ness. Hope it turns out well.

I wonder when Viz is going to dub the first two seasons of Sailor Moon Crystal hopefully after they are all finished with the original version when ever that might be. Rolling Eyes

They are/did. I watched some SMC episodes dubbed already. Not bad so far.

Well, there it is, I don't mind it with the art, at least it shows some things to be surprised.

Also, yes SMC has been dubbed for a while, 12 eps. have already been up in English lately.

My mistake I haven't been keeping up with Viz as of late since the only show I watch from them is Naruto Shippuden. Anime smile + sweatdrop

After seeing it in better quality, I like the designs. Mix of the old one and a new design, so overall okay with that. Just have to see it animated to be sure of it.

Makes me think the secret project might be a new musical that might tie in with a future season.

Chibiusa looks like a tsundere moe with that expression.

I certainly like these designs better than the previous ones, but I'll wait to pass judgment until we see how they translate to animation. I do note that Mars's arm is, as usual, in a horribly unnatural position. I do wonder if the people in charge hate her or something, she's gottent the worst treatment of all the senshi in terms of getting drawn in terrible poses

I also like these designs better. Though I worried about the director *uninekocough*

I think the character designs are much improved from the first two sagas. Most of the image is pretty lovely to look at, however something tells me the picture didn't turn out nearly as badass as the artist wanted...

Better not screw up the casting for Hotaru. Heads will roll!

I think so too and if that's the case then I assume this will have new actresses since IIRC, Un Nouveau Voyage was promoted as the final event for most of the previous cast.

Is there anything other than Umineko that she did badly with? Haven't watched any of her shows myself but I do plan to watch Higurashi in a few months.

There's a second image that gives an even better idea as to what they'll look like. I'm not 100% sold on the new art style. But it might look better in the actual product. So I'll try reserving judgment until then.
