The second episode of Moon Animate Make-Up is here! This ambitious project has for a second time reanimated an entire episode of Sailor Moon, frame by frame, with new animation by a team of over 300 animators. The first Moon Animate Make-Up covered Japanese episode 43 which was actually dubbed episode 38, “Fracticious Friends”. This time the project reanimated the Japanese version of Sailor Moon R episode 68, Protect Chibi-Usa: Clash of the Ten Warriors, and covers the English version. This episode has Chibiusa attacked by the Ayakashi Sisters and Rebeus and the gang defend her.
The animation throughout the episode varies greatly, as it has a mix of original styles and some that are derivative of other source materials. All in all I think this one turned out great and I think Sailor Moon fans owe it to themselves to check it out. You can watch it on YouTube embedded below.

Not cricket.
Cricket?
It just means it’s not natural.
I somehow prefer the first one. How much you want to bet that if a third is done, it’ll involve Kaolinite and the Outer Senshi, with plenty of kissing on the part of the latter?
I love the Betty Boop styled one!
Oh I’ve seen this animators work before for Smash Bros.
Thanks for the blog post, I’ll check this out for sure when I get home.
Additionally, you’re still a hoe for not posting about the soundtracks release update.
Working on it!
*Insert kiss emoji here*
HAPPY NOW?!!
Yes master!
this was actually really good, and at times very funny, love the jabs they took at times and at other times how much better then the source footage looked, always loved when they made usagi fat as the running joke in the dic dubs and every once in a while the bird gets flown to add so much humor to the serious tones, I totally could see the 3rd one if they make it to take from the outers making out and calling them selves cousins lol, totally sharing this with a few friends and the bf was laughing to no end when I showed him the original dic and the new redubs of this episode
I.
Fucking.
LOOOOOVVVVEEEEEE THISSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it’s so original and creative and funny and there are SO many moments when I just went “oh wow! look at that!” I would go bananas to see the whole series in any number of these styles! I can’t WAIT for a third one!
This was actually surprisingly very fucking entertaining to watch. I gotta watch episode 1 now. I absolutely love the different art styles, and it was nice to hear the original soundtrack in action again.
Definitely looking forward to episode 3!
