Super Recaps: Sailor Moon Crystal (Episode 17)
We’re back with another episode of Sailor Moon Crystal and boy is getting harder to wait those two weeks for another episode! With the stakes getting high and the writing getting sharper, are we in for another great episode of this born again series, or is this this the beginning of an inevitable spiral downwards into mediocrity and animation cutbacks? Let’s find out!!
The episode begins in the aftermath of Sailor Mercury’s kidnapping. The scouts are now down two members and none of them have any idea what these new foes are after or how to strike back against them. This causes Usagi to be mopey in her room once again (she’s been REALLY sad this story arc) and so Chibi-Usa’s freaky cat head thingy tries to cheer her up.

Will we get a satisfying conclusion to this story arc, or will it all just fizzle out in a hodgepodge of mixed metaphors and obtuse symbolism? Let’s find out!!

Super Recaps: Yuri Kuma Arashi (Episode 5)
We’re back with another episode of everyone’s favorite series about stalker bears! When we last left off, Lulu’s backstory was explained and they were trying to get ever closer to our hero Kureha! Now the last one ended on a pretty good note with the solid storytelling and the surprise twist at the end of the episode that Lulu has Kureha’s mother’s necklace. All good stuff, but that puts a whole of pressure on this episode to not only live up to the quality of the last one but to expand on what was revealed before! Was the last episode a sign that the rest of the series will be headed in a similar direction, or is it back to business as usual for this neigh impenetrable show about lesbian bears? Let’s find out!!
The episode begins with a look back to when Kureha’s mother was still alive. She’s taking a picture with her daughter as well as someone else! Bear Shock!!

Super Recaps: Yuri Kuma Arashi (Episode 4)
We’re back with another episode of the Lesbian Bear Soap Opera Extravaganza! The last episode ended on a really high note with Kureha finally standing up to the bear menace and landing a decisive blow against one of her enemies! Needless to say that this episode has a lot to live up to after such a great ending. Does the show continue to impress, or will it fall back on old tricks that always kept me at arm’s length? Let’s find out!!
The episode begins with a bit of back story for Lulu. Right off the bat, this episode is headed in the right direction because the one thing I’ve been begging for this show to do is flesh out the world and the characters we follow. That said however, it still doesn’t quite make sense.

Super Recaps: Sailor Moon Crystal (Episode 16)
Has it been a fortnight already? Well we find ourselves with yet another episode of Sailor Moon Crystal!! Will the show continue its upward swing from the last episode, or will reality come crashing down once again to remind us that we’re watching a rushed and under budgeted remake that doesn’t understand why COPYING THE MANGA EXACTLY TO A TV SHOW ISN’T A GOOD IDEA!! We can only hope for the former. Let’s get started!!
The episode begins with a recap of Sailor Mars getting kidnapped by the big bads of this story arc. Sailor Moon is clearly upset but notices that Chibi-Usa is standing off to the side. Usagi confronts the brat and demands to know what’s going on!
