The latest English dubbed episode of Sailor Moon Crystal is now available on Hulu and Neon Alley. Act 20, Crystal Tokyo – King Endymion, is all about the future. The gang arrived in Crystal Tokyo last week and here they are at the Crystal Palace. What a shock! Chibiusa’s parents are Usagi and Mamoru? This was strongly hinted at and after last week there wasn’t really any doubt. King Endymion, the title character, is a sort of ghost hologram in this episode. This is so that two of him don’t occupy the same space at the same time because that is apparently terrible, but never seems to be a problem.
We finally see Diana. Her voice actor was never previously heard in the new dub of the original Sailor Moon anime as Diana doesn’t appear until Sailor Moon SuperS, not in 30th Century Crystal Tokyo where she originally appears in the manga. What do you think of her new voice?
Next week is Act 21, Complication – Nemesis, which will have Prince Demande being terrible and give us a glimpse of Black Lady.
I don’t know about her new voice, but Sailor Moon gets kidnapped in this episode.
I liked the new episode. They do the dub very well in this show. But I have to wonder about one line: “Treason, terrorism, and mass murder were the least of their crimes” when describing the Black Moon clan. Wait, what’s worse than those? I mean, those last two encompass a lot of horrible things.
Also, on Diana: I recognize the voice actress. She’s whoever played Momo in Viz’s dub of Sailor Moon R. I recognized the voice instantly. What’s her name? Quick, someone find out!
The only type of thing I can imagine that could top those would be mass rape and the destruction of people’s souls…maybe somehow trapping people in some kind of mind control they can never come out of or something.
Illegally downloading MP3s.
No way?!!! Chibi Usa is the daughter of Usagi?!! But…but…all signs pointed to her being the daughter of Makoto and Asanuma!!!
On a serious note, Diana’s voice is much more mature than I’d imagined.
Does anybody watch the SMC stage event on Anime Japan? I still haven’t find anything about it… it was streamed on niconico for selected members, a lot of new details should have been revealed on that event
so here it is, 12 minutes of preview scenes from the Third season, I have to say that if this scenes are only from the first episode, some information which leaked out were not correct but if they are from first to episodes, the leaked information could be correct… I hope some news from the stage event are coming soon

I am surprised the animation looks really better although it is still not the best one, on the other hand the new opening and ending themes are really not impressive to me…
Additionally, Toei Animation on the stage event at AnimeJapan confirmed that the third season will have 13 episodes and also confirmed the following cast members:
Misato Fukuen as Chibiusa
Shoko Nakagawa as Diana
Youhei Oobayashi as Artemis
No announcement of possible US streaming release yet.

Thanks. Writing a post about it right now.
Can’t wait to hear the voices! I really wish they would have allowed more development of the stories and characters or expanded on some of the stories that needed some expansion. So far the series works in pace but lacks in story/character development.
So sad yet again we are going to get a too much crammed into one episode for sailor moon the third season. I am extremely disappointed. I will watch, but with the art style change(which I don’t like because the characters designs are just bleh) I was hoping at least they would change how they adapted the manga. I’m sure the manga was great but with how season 1 of crystal ended if the manga was close to that then there was no character or story development. The 90’s series has too much filler but crystal needs some development. I believe at least 26 or 30 something episodes would give the show the flexibility to develop the story and characters. I guess unfortunately all the information previously leaked wasn’t correct since we will only get 13 episodes for season 3 of crystal. I was hoping for at least 26 or 30 something to develop the story and characters. Disappointing.
Diana is voiced by Debi Derryberry who also voices Chibiusa’s friend Momo. She will continue to voice Diana and Momo for the upcoming SuperS dub as well, and as Diana again for the first episodes of Sailor StarS once production heads in that direction. ^_^
Yep seeing this on Wikipedia this morning as well. Do you know what the source for this is? I’d like to put it in the article.
