There are websites where you can download the scans of the entire manga series! Please feel free to message me or comment this video to ask for a link to such a website. I’ll be more than happy to send it to you! ^_^

ABOUT THIS PROJECT:
This is the first part of a project I’ve decided to undertake to compare the Sailor Moon anime with the manga. The goal is to point out scenes that seem somewhat similar but are actually very different, especially in respect to how the characters are portrayed. If you would like to see how a particular scene in the anime was shown in the manga, or if you have read the manga and would like to suggest a scene comparison, feel free to request it and I’ll see what I can do.

Although the anime was based on the original manga of Naoko Takeuchi, the animators changed a lot of things, including parts of the storyline and characterization. This is not to say that the anime completely ruined Takeuchi’s story, since it did add more humor, color, and life to the story. However, being a team of all males, the animators were at times unable to fully connect with the female audience as Miss Takeuchi was able to. One major example of this is the obvious difference between anime Mamoru and manga Mamoru. While the male animators tried to portray anime Mamoru as more “manly” by making him stiff and aloof, Takeuchi portrayed manga Mamoru as, in the eyes of most girls, the ideal man: tender, loving, and strong. Because I’m rather disappointed with the anime portrayal of one of my favorite characters (Mamoru), you may notice that many of my comparisons will involve scenes with him and Usagi.

I hope that with this project, I can encourage more people to read the true, original masterpiece: the manga.

This particular comparison compares Mamoru’s departure in Episode 173 of the anime with Act 43 of the manga.

A FEW THINGS TO NOTE IN THIS VIDEO:
In the Tokyopop translation of the manga, ‘Darien’='Mamo-chan’, ‘Bunny’ (when said by Mamoru)=’Usa’. Mamoru also sometimes calls her ‘Buns,’ which is the same as ‘Usako.’

When the manga was translated from Japanese to English, all the pages were flipped to allow American readers to read from left to right (Japanese mangas read from right to left). That’s why, in this video, it seems that Usagi’s ring is on her right hand, when it is really her left in the original Japanese manga.

As you’re watching, look at the way…
Mamoru & Usagi arrive at the airport TOGETHER in the manga.
Mamoru embraces & kisses Usagi in the manga vs. the anime.
MAMORU is the first one to say that he’ll write and call Usagi in the manga.
