MOON PRIDE//www.youtube.com/embed/deXkJlDxs8w
I liked the new theme. I don't like it as well as "Moonlight Densetsu", to be sure, but it's a modern take on the the music. Instead of being about the romance, it emphasizes the team. Maybe not quite so easy to sing along to.I’m not a frail thing that needs to be protectedAndShiny Make-Up I’ll be fighting, protecting the starsA new legend begins here and nowTranslation which is better than the one on the video. -- +kanji -English
But the music itself emphasizes one point that had escaped me: Sailor Moon is pretty fucking metal. Sure it has schoolgirls going to the arcade and talking about their crushes and the senpai that broke my heart. But underneath that is is a story so legendary and savage that it's worthy of metal döts.
In the wake of near extinction in the solar system, legendary warriors are reincarnated using an artifact of divine power. These warriors must fight ordinary things and people twisted by ancient evil. Finally, they fight the cosmic horrors who aim to destroy everything with no backup plan, no assistance forthcoming. If they fail, life is basically gone forever in the solar system, and probably the galaxy.
Plan A is to walk up to the Elder God and try to teach him about love. That never works, so they they attempt the beatdown. And if normal tactics don't work, well, you know the end of seasons 1 and S.
References to cultural legend, high magic and the occult, legendary warriors, and sacrifice, all mixed up with teen angst. Sounds like heavy metal to me!
I suppose I'd have picked up on it earlier if I had listened to the last SotD thread, but I'm pretty bad at watching videos thrown at me.
