Sailor Moon/Wall Banger: Difference between revisions

** That was in the dub only. In the original, she just orders the plant to let her go and never asks for help. Still, Sailor Moon arguably could have attempted to save her anyway, but didn't. In fact, the Sailor Senshi ''really'' could have tried to stop Telulu from "unplugging" Mimete earilerearlier (she spent a while monolouging to Mimete so there was a good opportunity to attack her). At least the reaction to Viluy's death was appropriate: they [[Alas, Poor Villain|lamented it]] but given the nature of the death, it was kind of ''impossible'' to do anything about it when it was happening.

* Queen Nehelenia's portrayal in the beginning filler arc of ''Stars''. She is suddenly made out to be a [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]] who grew up lonely and unloved, and she became so vain because the only one she could count on to love her was herself. This is revealed in an ''incredibly'' heavy-handed way, with all the Sailor Senshi crying over this sob story (''even Uranus and Neptune'', which is so out of character it's ridiculous) and Usagi suddenly in full [[The Messiah|Messiah mode]] and desperate to redeem Nehelenia. In the end, Usagi actually pushes the [[Reset Button]] on Nehelenia's life, making her back a child again able to grow up with love and friendship. All of this completely ruins how Nehelenia was portrayed in ''SuperS'' which, while usually criticized for being too [[Lighter and Softer|light]], had her as a very dark character: a woman so obsessed with staying beautiful that she would cross the [[Moral Event Horizon]] to do so, and whose ending (willingly staying sealed inside a floating mirror so that she'd remain young and beaufiul, and laughing insanely about this fact as she dissapearsdisappears into space) was so darkly tragic and well-done that seeing it undone in exchange for a (as of this point overdone) "villain gets redeemed and has a happy ending" outcome is ''really'' frusturatingfrustrating.
