Sailor Business

Welcome back to the adventures of everyone's favorite Sailor Scouts--Victoria, Sarah, Blue and the rest! Whether you're a fan of non-stop action or glorious transformations, you're heart will not be unmoved when Blue plans to move to Germany, turning her back on her resposibilities completely! Storyboard artist Cassidy Stone returns to cheer on Chibi-Usa as the scouts are broken apart forever!

We're back, kicking off Sailor Business 2016 as we go full-steam into the second half of Sailor Moon R! The Dark Moon Clan goes after the first Crystal Point of Crystal Tokyo, and lo and behold...it's a make-up shop! We're joined by storyboard artist Cassidy Stone whose favorite Scout is SAILOR CHIBI MOON! How can this be? Find out this episode!

We've dreaded this day for a long time, but...at last, it she has come. With this episode, we meet that horrible spore, that famingo-haired freak, that father-loving war criminal...Chibi-Usa aka Reenie aka Mini-Moon! Nothing will ever be the same again. Chris and Jordan are not thrilled, but thankfully, Aidan Sullivan is with us--someone who actually LIKES the little fungus. PLUS: we reveal the winner of the complete set of Sailor Moon Manga provided by Kodansha!

This is it--the actual END of the Doomtree saga! The terrible tree teens, Alan and Ann, stand revealed...and both Mamoru and Usagi are captured and being drained of energy! Can the other scouts save them? No--they are useless this episode! But can they make it through some other way? Well, there are still 141 more episodes, so...probably, yeah. And we're joined by Aidan Sullivan to dig into the ROOTS of the issues.

We're reached the penultimate episode of the Doomtree Saga! It's been a weird road to get here, but as the Doomtree withers, Alan and Anne up their game and target the one and only moon pudding! Leanne Bartle is back again to help Chris and Jordan navigate their way through this nutso episode...which kicks off with a mascot-style, big-head stage show of Sailor Moon, complete with Luna. It's...real weird.

Get ready for Sailor Moon's Breakfast Club! Ok, now that I've said that, I can tell already it's confusing--no, I don't mean we should all eat one slice of toast on the run, I mean this week, Usagi is in detention! Ironically, she's in detention for eating lunch early, so it's more of a lunch club. Thanfully, Leanne Bartle joins the boys to stay after school and watch the fun! PLUS, this is the LAST DAY to send your contest entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com!

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, who's got the "most talent" of all? That's right, it's time for the obligatory school play episode, and all the cat fights you can imagine would ensue over what scout is most qualified to play Snow White! Thankfully, Donna Dickens (of Hitfix) is back to help Chris and Jordan sort through all the headshots and organize callbacks.

This episode is the one we like to affectionately call "The Food Episode," as Alan is discovering the weird connection between food and love that seems to have a startling hold on every single teen girl in Japan. Plus, Donna Dickens (of Hitfix) is back to tell us what she thinks Alan is REALLY "eating". This is going to be a fun one. Oh yeah, and keep sending your contest entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com!

This episode has been mentioned on the podcast a few times before...yes, we have finally reached the infamous "one where Rei does the talent show thing"! Will Chris and Jordan start liking her once they get to know her? Will Kristina Murdaugh, former fandubber from Negavision, help them come around to Rei's side? And will you all enjoy Jordan's ukulele cover of "Oh Starry Night"? Let's find out. PLUS, keep sending your contest entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com!

And, we're back! And our next target is babies! Or rather, Alan and Ann's next target is babies...which introduces us to the superstar of the show, BABY JORDAN! Chris and Jordan are joined by Kristina Murdaugh, former fandubber from Negavision, to learn all about how babies pee on faces! Meanwhile, keep sending your contest entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! This week, we take a break from the anime to watch the year 2000 Sailor Moon Musical "Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon New/Transformation - The Path to Become the Super Warrior - Overture of Last Dracul"...also known as the one where Sailor Moon fights Dracula! Sort of. The boys are joined by T. A. Noonan for something they never thought they would encounter...AN INTERMINABLE, TERRIBLE SAILOR MOON SHOW! Meanwhile, keep sending your contest entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com!

This week, Sailor Venus takes the spotlight, kind of, as we explore the world of little children! Were the animators trying to warm the audience up to little kids because they knew Reeny was coming? Who knows! Perhaps Annie Craton of The Jem Jam can shed some light on the subject? BE STRONG, CHRIS SIMS! YOU CAN DO IT, JORDAN D. WHITE! Meanwhile, keep sending your contest entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com!

The long wait is over! Sailor Business is back, kicking off the 2nd quarter of Sailor Moon by announcing the contest to win the full Sailor Moon manga collection, as donated to us by Kodansha! Listen to the podcast, then send your entries to sailorbusinesspodcast@gmail.com! But first--we're joined for this Cherry Blossom Festival by Annie Craton of The Jem Jam podcast! Zip up into your sleeping bags and camp out!

FIFTY EPISODES OF SAILOR BUSINESS! That's 1/4 of the way through all of Sailor Moon! Not counting the movies! Or the Musicals! Or the live action show! And what did the awesome creators at the Sailor Moon anime cook up to celebrate their 50th episode? Why a look into the futuristicest of all futuristic technologies: VIRTUAL REALITY! Chris and Jordan are joined once more by Aidan Sullivan for a trip into the future of gaming!

Welcome back, Trash-Piles! That's right, we're back in the world of people treating Usagi like dirt...but could it be because she is immature and not capable of adult relationships? Wait what--who would suggest such a thing?!? Perhaps this week's special guest, Aidan Sullivan, can help shed some light on the subject! All this, plus a talking cat monster, the relevance of blood types...and maybe another song!

Alan and Ann, the ALI-ENS here to sap energy, have decided to take over a movie studio's casting process...because that's the easiest way to get energy, for sure. But the scouts don't have their memories anymore! What will happen??? Chris and Jordan are joined again by Dr. Devon White to help jog the memories of all the listeners and celebrate another person's first episode!

Welcome back, as we enter the next phase of Sailor Business! Now that Queen Beryl is defeated, the show becomes a straight-up teen romance show, right? WRONG! It becomes an ALIEN INVASION! Sort of. If two people count as an invasion. Back to watch the skies with Chris and Jordan is Dr. Devon White (Jordan's wife) to celebrate the occasion of the first episode she'd ever seen of the show! A great jumping on point! Tell your friends!

So, let's summarize--all the Sailor Scouts except Sailor Moon are dead...and her destined Moon lover has been turned evil. Things are not looking good, even if you didn't know that this was the last episode of Sailor Moon. Sort of. I mean...not really. Anyway, the climactic battle is here, and Jordan, Chris and Juliet Kahn are here to give you the play-by-play! PLUS: another musical bonus from Jordan! I give you the strength to listen on!

It all comes to this! The start of the two-part season finale of Season One of Sailor Moon...which was condensed into one episode by the original American adaptation. In this first part...THE SAILOR SCOUTS DIE! Which would be a spoiler, if it were not the NAME OF THE EPISODE. Mourn along with Jordan, Chris, and the return of our first guest ever, Juliet Kahn! Get ready for sadness!

Another episode with the death of a King of Heaven, let's all say good bye to Kunzite/Malachite as we learn all about the Moon Kingdom! That's right--lots of Jordan and Chris's questions get...answered(?) in this episode...to varying degree of satisfaction. Joined once again by artist Erin Gladstone, we journey back into the past to see the invasion of Earth, and the super important dance that it nearly interrupted!
