Any love for Sailor Moon anymore??

[TheMuseErato]

I've read the entire manga series, seen the anime, including the movies, and part of the live action series AND some of the musical production that I believe is still shown in parts of Tokyo. Yes, it's now a musical XD!!

[Xenolord]

Well, if we all have an understanding about the "Toss Out and Try Again" tweaking, and if we're already calling characters...

I would like to call Ibs on Makoto.

[Major Major]

So... What's happeneing on this thing then?

[white]

I used to watch it weekly when I was still on elementary school, but I already forgot the main story for it...

[Vergil1989]

It's late here but I just thought I'd throw my hat in as well.  I am unfamiliar with most of the newer Sailor Moon stuff since I missed more episodes than I was able to watch, but if you'll have me I'll try to catch up with whatever I need to know and all.  Where is this going or do you not know that yet?

[Vergil1989]

I'm hoping this hasn't bit the dust.  Started watching Sailor Moon again on Anime Freak just for this and it feels like I'm losing brain cells considering the cheesy moments lol.  Other than that though love the show and will continue to watch even if this doesn't pick up here soon.

Sailor Moon Opening (English)

[pendarious]

i like this version of the song better myself.


Sailor Moon - Moonlight Densetsu

[TheMuseErato]

I do love the Japanese theme far better than the english. About the only two songs from the english version of the series that I liked were, 'My Only Love' and 'Power of Love'.

[Major Major]

Perhaps we should work out the background details first, here and now, before we get into the game, yes?

[Vergil1989]

It works for me although I don't know how much help I'll be unfortunately.  I know very little about the show despite watching it on Anime Freak of late and all.

[Major Major]

In that case, may I vote that: [1] We use the Japanese names for the characters, and [2], we use the anime's date of 10,000 years ago, so the Moon Kingdom's fall.

[TheMuseErato]

Has anyone heard from the original creator of this thread? I'm totally game for setting up plot and such but I just don't want the OP to come back and we've gone in a different direction than he/she wanted.
But yes, I agree that we use Japanese names for characters and that we use the anime date so that the moon kingdom has already fallen.

[Vergil1989]

When Queen Beryl first unleashed the power of the Negaforce?  Sounds good to me, and I guess we could use the Japanese names although again not enough knowledge to go on on my part.  Still, thank god for Wiki!  Lol.

[Major Major]

I just noticed that I typoed up there; I wrote so when I meant for.

and also, what about the question of Original Characters?

[Vergil1989]

I have to agree with Muse on this one, and so I propose we start our own just to be sure we don't step on any toes myself.  Still, OC sounds good to me.

[TheMuseErato]

I'd be game for original characters so long as they..made sense for lack of a better way to put it. It'd give me an opportunity to dust off my Sun character, though I also don't mind doubling up on characters either.
And I was thinking maybe in terms of when to start this roleplay, we could do it after the Stars series ended? Giving us a clean slate to work with and all?

[Major Major]

Heh; oddly enough I'm reminded of my crossover fanverse that me and a buddy created a few years ago; it crossed over Sailor Moon with a few other series.

[Vergil1989]

Really?  I did that for a Myspcae Blog thing I had going for the longest time, except there wasn't really any particular rules or anything at the time lol.  Almost anything went so long as it didn't get too extreme and all since it was Myspace lol.  Everything from Stargate to Bleach somehow found a place there to a lot of original stuff as well.  Anyway, as I said before, I'd recommend starting our own thread just in case the OP does come back, but it's your call Major Major.

[TheMuseErato]

Which series? And yes, I think we should start our own thread. Who would be GMing? I wouldn't mind GMing as long as there is another to help keep things fresh and flowing.

[Vergil1989]

I'd offer but I don't know enough to truly be helpful, although on the other hand that would give me an edge since I'd be forced to think of Original stuff and all.  If you'd have me Muse I'd be glad to give a hand where I can, unless Major Major prefers to do so of course lol.

[Major Major]

Thanks Muse. I'll offer any help I can; it helps I know someone on another site who is a huge Sailor Moon fan.

I believe the questions that must be answered before we can start are: [1] What is the objective to lead towards, and/or enemies the girls would face? [2] What rating to put this under? and [3] Which, if any, series might be crossed over with it?

[Vergil1989]

The first depends mostly on what you want the enemies to be after.  Simple world domination to harvest humanity and use them as slaves seems too cliched, as does just simply destroying Earth, but it seems to work for Sailor Moon lol.  As for enemies, that will depend upon the rating, but I'd recommend Extreme myself only cause that way we are not limited in any way.  As for the series, I know a little about the Dream Mirrors and Heart Crystals, as well as the Gem things that contained uber powerful creatures if memory serves, but beyond that I am of little help here, so that will have to be up to you two.

[TheMuseErato]

Hmm...I think for now we'd better steer clear of crossing over given that some of those who have expressed an interest are not familiar with the series we plan to roleplay from. And throwing in other series may offer additional confusion and snag the plotline. Once we've established a plotline that is.
The objective would of course borrow from the series usual formula of insert baddie/villians/nemesis here and the girls of course must struggle to defeat afformentioned baddie/villians/nemesis and protect the universe. At least as a base, of course I personally would like to see villians that are more challenging thus warrenting the arrival of any new characters and such to assist the girls.
As for rating? Um...rated E for Epic? Okay okay, in all seriousness, this is an adult roleplay site so give it a mature rating so that anyone stumbling upon our game won't go shrieking should they see a couple of characters snog or whatever. I mean, it's Sailor Moon, there wasn't much in the way of sex, but there were some romantic moments unless you count that part in the manga where Mamoru asked Usagi to spend the night.

[Xenolord]

If you guys wanna get away from the MOTD theme of the series, I could create a hell of villain to be the biggest pain in the ass you've ever seen.

Just an idea.

[Vergil1989]

That's what they all say XenoLord lol.  Joking aside, I agree wholeheartedly with you Muse.
