Recently Sera Myu fans have been blessed with a music festival in honor of the 30 year celebration of the Sailor Moon Musicals! 8 full performances showcasing the nostalgia and the love of the musicals from one of the most beloved anime/manga series created by Naoko Takeuchi: Sailor Moon. These performances occurred from Nov. 17- Nov. 20, 2022 all with the same story line along with special guests from previous actresses from Banmyu to KaguMyu and the wonderful and the amazing Akiko Kosaka (Twitter) who has written several songs for the anime as well as songs and background music for the musicals. A list of the actresses can be found here: Sailor Moon News Network with the exception of Meiku Harikawa who had to miss the last day due to health. Here is also a wonderfully created visual layout of the performance schedule by @landofanimes .
Before I start my review, I would like to give a huge shout out to the absolute GOAT @crazykacey for providing not only access to the livestream of Sera Myu Chronicle but audio recordings from the performances as well. @crazykacey also provided a plot summary for those who are interested which can be found here along with an English translation of the musical numbers in the pamphlet! I would also like to give thanks to Sea of Serenity’s @britchan for recording and uploading the last two performances!
All of the images/gifs in this review were screenshotted/created by me. They’re not of the best quality as they were made specifically for this review but if you do use them, please give credit!
Anyways..
I was able to watch the Sera Myu Chronicle together with so many Sera Myu fans. It was amazing to enjoy it with others in the Sea of Serenity Discord. If you haven’t checked out yet, please do! There is a wonderful and supportive community there for all of Sailor Moon! The link can be found in the Sea of Serenity website. It truly made the experience magical as we all fangirled and cried over the entire performance.
This is my first review I’ve ever written so please bear with me if I get anything wrong, especially any details regarding the Myus. I may be a fan but my knowledge isn’t as vast as compared to the many dedicated and devoted fans in the Sera Myu fandom. Keep in mind, my thoughts and opinions may not be in line with others as this is a subjective review with a hint of objectivity since I’ll reference some Myus in the past. If you do not agree, I respect that. If you do decide to comment on this review, please do so in a respectful way that isn’t hateful towards myself, the fandom, or even the performers.
Coming back to this introduction, I will most likely have to break this review into 2 maybe 3 parts because it is LONG. Please look forward to the other parts in the following days.
There seems to be some sort of official questionnaire regarding the musical, created by Nelke, I heard Riko(Sailor Moon), Ayana(Neptune) and Shinju(Uranus) talk about it in their IG lives and apparently it was in the Official Fan Club but Ayana had posted a link to her story so I managed to grab it and have now translated it so please fill it if possible as it might affect any future Myus as there currently is some uncertainty if they are gonna continue

Coming back to this introduction, I will most likely have to break this review into 2 maybe 3 parts because it is LONG. Please look forward to the other parts in the following days.
Now…
On to the Review!
MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!
This review will be of the Senshuuraku performance meaning the last performance of the musical as well as my reactions from my first viewing. I want to say this is more of like a review mostly for the songs since I haven’t learned enough Japanese to fully understand what’s going on. Plot wise, I’m clueless but I will try my best!
The intro of the Sera Myu Chronicle reminded me of the TBS 2 streams of the 2018 NogiMyu performances. I’m not sure if the intro was the same as the KaguMyu live streams since I didn’t watch those, but it definitely made me nostalgic in anticipation for the performance to start.
After waiting (and writing) for a couple of minutes, the lights dimmed and the performance started soft musical transition to a voice-over of the current cast. The Senshi start talking to each other about what I presume is a short recap of the previous musical as this performance is sort of like a sequel to it.
Edit: “ It is actually kind of a recap of the first arc/season when Usagi meets Luna, becomes Sailor Moon and then meets the rest of the girls...” Bless you @crazykacey
AND THEN BAM:
We are hit with a tribute to all the special guests for the Sera Myu Chronicle in a timeline-like video format to Moonlight Densetsu. It also featured past Myus which was a delight to see. I immediately fangirled as soon as Moonlight Densetsu hit. When ANZA appeared on screen in the tribute, I lost it. I can’t imagine how I would have reacted if I was in person on the day ANZA was the special guest. Another thing I liked about the timeline was that it also had The Super Live and Shining Moon Tokyo. I actually went to NYC to see The Super Live so it has a very special place in my heart.
Now before I dive further into this reaction & review, I want to preface that I haven’t actually seen KaguMyu. This is actually my very first impression of everything.
NOW WAIT A MINUTE, TAKAA. YOU HAVEN’T SEEN KAGUMYU YET? HOW COULD YOU?! I THOUGHT YOU WERE A TRUE FAN. THIS IS BLASPHEMOUS. HOW DARE YOU CALL YOURSELF A SERA MYU FAN.
Yup, that’s correct. I haven’t seen KaguMyu yet and I’m actually not sure why. It’s one of those “if I really wanted to watch it I would have already”. I probably had to prioritize certain things in my life around the time KaguMyu was hyped. It doesn’t make me any less of a fan though. I still love Sera Myu even if I haven’t explored every aspect of it.
Now back to the Sera Myu Chronicle…
The first song that was sung was You’re My Universe which I thought was wonderful. What a powerful song to start with!
I loved how the song individually featured all of the actresses. Riko Tanaka (Sailor Moon aka Rikomoon) had surprisingly strong vocals for Sailor Moon which I appreciate. I was going to comment on how she was throughout the performance but I want to say that Riko actually doesn’t have a lot of lines as compared to others in the performance. She mostly just sings. lol. Even the Inner Senshi had more dialogue than her. Interesting.
I loved the transition to the Outer Senshi the most. They still are my favorite Senshi and the Myus do a wonderful job in casting actresses who give us those deep, dark vocals we need for a big group song. I always am a sucker for deep vocals and these queens delivered. Bless.
I love big group songs and this one did not disappoint.
After You’re My Universe, the new song Chronicle the Story of Sailor Moon sung by Rikomoon with Luna as her background dancer twirling and jumping all around the stage. This song was absolutely beautiful. It gave me goosebumps and I thought Riko’s vocals paired well with the melody. Now that I think about it, Riko’s characterization of Moon in this song is probably why she doesn’t have much dialogue throughout the whole of Sera Myu Chronicle. To me, she gave off a wholesome and hopeful Moon and I really quite liked it!
I’m growing to love this new song.
HOLD THE FRONT DOOR. I DIDN’T REALIZE THE FIRST TIME WATCHING THAT MARISALUNA WAS THE ONE DANCING TOWARDS THE END OF THE SONG. What great attention to detail. I was so focused on Riko!
My jaw dropped after this realization. Heh.
After Chronicle the Story of Sailor Moon, we get a cute dialogue with the inners, Mamo, ChibiUsa, and YuneLuna as well as the transition to Takene no Lady sung by the inners and ChibiUsa. It’s such a cute song and it reminds me of Tsukiiro no Syndicate which was sung by MarinaMoon in 2003 Starlights Ryuusei Densetsu.
Can I say that I absolutely love Marin Makino as Minako/Venus?! She did such a great job exuding Minako’s idol-like energy. I LOVE IT and I continue to find myself loving Marin throughout the entire performance.
I mean look at her in Eye Candy which was the next song after the introduction of Ms. Frozen who was obviously not the villain.
SO FREAKIN PRECIOUS. DA HECC.
Speaking of Eye Candy, I thought it was cute that ChiseChibi sang along with a solo part! Each Inner had their solo part as well. I guess I could talk about KisaraJupiter’s vocals here. Sure, it doesn’t sound as strong as everyone else’s but there may have been some underlying circumstances that we may not be aware of ever since KaguMyu. Did I enjoy it? Yes, in fact, I found her voice to be endearring and very cute but definitely not Jupiter-like since we associate Jupiter with someone who is very strong.
Ms. Frozen does a monologue and I guess YuneLuna gets brainwashed. Big Bang Riron, one of my favorite NogiMyu songs, is performed by Ms. Frozen and oh my gosh did my jaw drop. It was such a great performance AND THEN OUT POPS MARISALUNA AND SHE’S SO FREAKING CAPTIVATING. SLAAAAAAAAAAAAY.
This arrangement was so fun! Actually, I want to say that most of the songs had different arrangements and they’re so fresh!
Usagi, then, finally makes it on time for Usagi Band to perform Otome no Michi from the 2017 Le Mouvement Final(LMF). About damn time Usagi!
The one thing I didn’t like about this was Usagi’s boots. It should have been pink or even white would suffice. The black boots just did not match Usagi at all. I actually read about it in someone else’s tumblr and I completely agree. (Please let me know who you are because I absolutely for the life of me cannot remember the post I read it from. I want to give you credit for pointing it out!)
As soon as Otome no Michi was finished, ShinjyuHaruka, RionaMamo, and ChisatoSetsuna appear. RionaMamo is against the idea of performing (please correct me if I’m wrong) BUT THEN PULLS A 360 AND IMMEDIATELY CHANNELS HER INNER TAIKI BECAUSE WHILE THIS SCENE WAS HAPPENING, THE INTRO TO WANDERING STARS STARTED PLAY. BUT OH IT DIDNT STOP THERE, ITS THE FREAKING FULL VERSION OF WANDERING STARS. Truly blessed.
As you can see, all caps was necessary.
Just a little background Riona also played Taiki Kou aka Sailor Star Maker in the previous 2017 musical, Le Mouvement Final. She sang this song along with Saki Matsuda (Yaten Kou) and Meiku Harukawa (Seiya Kou).
I actually really enjoyed Riona as Mamo/Tux in this entire performance! I felt like she wasn’t forcing her lower voice/notes and she just seemed to have a lot of fun! She definitely shined as Mamo/Tux here as compared to The Super Live where the most memorable thing of her part was the merry go round dream sequence where she laughs “AH AH AH”. It was hilarious to me. Actually, I don’t quite remember what happened since it was a long time ago but it was such a great experience.
So, we’re about 40 minutes into the performance I think this might a great spot to end Part 1 of my review. I had a closing thoughts for this entire review but I didn’t realize it was going to be so long...
-------------------------------------------------------
If you haven’t had the chance to dive into the magical world of Sera Myu, I highly recommend it. This link here is a guide to Sera Myu. Credits to the many fans who contributed to the document. Fansubs of the musicals can be found at the Sea of Serenity website, but I highly recommend purchasing the unsubbed physical copies (probably of the more recent myus) to support the franchise.
Thank you so much for reading this unexpectedly long review and please look forward to the next parts!
<3 Takaa
I posted a bunch of stuff on my Instagram story so check that out if you are interested!
https://www.instagram.com/silverhoshi/
ANYWAY I also bought lots of stuff!
So the two things on the left are clear files which came as a set and they were just so pretty I HAD to get them. And the two on the right are promo posters that were free
They were also selling some Shining Moon Tokyo stuff so I got myself this Sailor Venus towel which goes well with my Sailor Venus headband that I got a couple years back. Then there's the Moon Stick plushie/cushionthingy which is actually quite stiff like a soft hammer or something idk lol. Then in the middle there is this coaster that I got when I went to the Sailor Moon Museum Cafe and I'm not sure if I was actually allowed to take it since it was given alongside the drink that I ordered but I just took it lmao. Then lastly there is this Museum Original Badge WHICH SPARKLES
So I love it 😍
After that I went to the cafe (waited an hour in the line) and ordered the Sailor Mars & Venus muscat and berry soda
And then a "Christmas Pancake" which was only recently added to the menu so I had to try it! And it seems to be something that many couples share and eat together but I said bugger it and ate it by myself lol
Sera Myu Musical Festival -Chronicle- Pamphlet translation
hi
I'm currently at the airport waiting for my flight back to Finland so I decided to translate the first page of musical's pamphlet
Once again sorry if my grammar is pure shit and this might not be 100% as there's many kanji I didn't know so keep that in mind!
(sorry if these pics are crappy, I'll try to take better ones later!)
Welcome to Sailor Moon's 30th Anniversary performance, Musical Festival -Chronicle-! This year is a special moment that I have been waiting for and it has finally arrived!
This time the theme is "Chronicle". From the long history of Sera Myu, many familiar songs and new songs have been brought in this live performance to entertain everyone.
There are many dark and painful events every day, so there are a lot of people who took a huge step forward by coming to see the musical. I thank you from the bottom if my heart!
I also want to thank all the fans for their support and for looking forward to this everyday! I'm the most grateful!
A lot of feelings, nostalgia, joy and bittersweet memories are all packed into so we will definitely produce a mountain of fun and memories.
Do your very best tomorrow! All the people involved in the musical are excited about delivering this power of warm light so that thoughts of doing your very best will well up at the end of the day!
Oh! As some of you may know, I used to do Sera Myu covers on YouTube. I may continue to do that when time permits but I was thinking about creating a discord for those who are interested in a space (outside of YouTube) to communicate and collab with. Perhaps it’ll kick started doing covers again and a revival of the cover commyunity? ☺️
Once I’ve completed it, I’ll share a link here! It will be open for anyone to join. ☺️
And then there is the thing with the guests... AND I RECORDED THE WHOLE THING. And a interesting thing is that they actually had a small talk show... Not at the end of the musical like Anza & co. had the Special Live in the middle of the musical like they had with Riona in the previous performance I went to see. So it features the Amour Eternal & Le Mouvement Final Inners, Yume Takeuchi(Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury), Karen Kobayashi(Rei Hino/Sailor Mars), Kaede(Makoto Kino/Sailor Jupiter) AND Rimo😍Hasegawa(Minako Aino/Sailor Venus). Apparently Hotaru Nomoto(AE-LMF Sailor Moon) was supposed to come but wasn't able to due to time management issues but she wrote a letter which Yume read. So Ms. Frozen asked them few behind the scene questions from their performances(which I'll go intro greater detail on a later post) And gosh Rimo was being so chaotic I loved it💛💛
While I'm very happy about it, it makes me wonder why Anza & co. didn't have a talk show... What a missed opportunity
AND They performed Speed of Light at the end of it. (starts around 21:45) So while they may not have sang multiple songs like Anza & co. I think it's safe to say that the other guests also sang something (hopefully other songs than Moonlight Densetsu tho)
They also appeared at the end and danced the end part of Moonlight Densetsu!
(If using headphones, it only works on the right ear. Also there is a lot of clapping cause everyone had the time of their life. So yeah I didn't edit any of them at all cause I only have my phone with me. Also also if shared, please credit me!)
Today's question is how the hell you can get so much text from a 20 minute conversation. I finally translated this talkshow (mostly anyway). It is not 100% and sorry for my crappy grammar once again.
And there is a lot of text
A lot
First everyone introduced themselves and then Ms.Frozen points out their Sailor Moon(Hotaru) is not there and Yume explains that the schedules would match and wasn't able to come. Ms. Frozen comments that it's good that she has one enemy less lol but quickly averts the attention away from her by asking if they have a message or something from her and Yume tells that she has a letter from Hotaru. Hotaru writes that she is very disappointed that she is not able to be there and is not sure whether the letter shouls be read seriously or jokingly and tells Yume to read to room to define how to read the letter (iirc the other inners used to jokingly tease Yume as she was the youngest of the Inners so I guess that falls on that). Hotaru writes that she very jealous of everyone who gets to be as she would also like to. Back when she was cast as Sailor Moon, she didn't find being on stage that enjoyable as she hated her voice and there were times when they weren't able to communicate properly and while she has many regrets, she is very happy about all the love she was able to get from her Sailor Moon and her co-workers. And no matter how many years pass, she will never forget all that love and is very proud she was able to be part of Sailor Moon. She then writes for the others to have the best time and to take lots of pictures and them to her and if they don't, she'll start sulking. Everyone is confused since they thought she would say, "if you don't send any pictures, in the name of the Moon, I'll punish you!" "Until we meet again, Hotaru Nomoto."
Ms. Frozen says that the things she heard makes her heart cold and shivering and Kaede then asks that is there any chance that she is Snow Kaguya. She then reassures that is not and teels the girls that they must have heard about Ms. Frozen before somewhere. And the girls "remember" hearing about her.(Apparently this is done woth every guest tho) And she then sarts her Guest Chronicle Corner and proceed to show a slideshow of several pictures from their time in Sera Myu. The first pic is from LMF when the performed Speed of Light during the service numbers. The second picture is from the beginning of AE when Karen(Rei) says "Something is approaching" and Dead Moon Circus arrives on Earth. The next pic is from the end of AE when Sailor Moon transforms into Eternal Sailor Moon and they sing Amour Eternal ~Speed of Light~ and fight Nehellenia. (I love Rimo's high-pitched "Nehellenia-sama"). I think the next pic is right at the end of LMF when they strike their poses at the end of Moonlight Densetsu. Kaede mentions that there was such little time between giving high-fives in the audience to striking the pose on specific spot. The last pic is from the song CHIBI CHIBI in LMF. Karen mentions that she was super happy to wear Rei's miko outfit(is there a proper name for that? Priestess outfit? idk). Yume also mentions that wanted to wear glasses alongside Ami's school uniform and the staff about it and was able to do it!
Then they moved to the next event called Freeze History! Punish You Corner (this translation sucks but honestly how to hell am i supposed to translate it) where the girls are asked questions about their time in Sera Myu. And if Ms. Frozen doesn't like their answers she will freeze a part of their body with those fancy "ice" badges. The ensemble/Snow Dancers arrive and the girls mention that there are familiar faces as they have performed together before. The first question is were there any sort of "terrible episodes" and it is asked from Karen and Rimo. Karen says that AE was the very first time she was cast to play on stage and there were many things she was very clueless about but she ended up getting do into that that se told her mother that she'll chastise her. So when they started practicing for the musical, she was kinda confused about Mars's catchfrase ("In the name of Mars, I'll chastise you/Ka-sei ni kawatte, sekkan yo/火星に代わって、折檻よ") as she didn't really understand the meaning of "sekkan"(chastise) so she looked it up and found it was a little bit stronger version of "I'll punish you!". So it left a really big impact on her as it is not something you'll say that often. So one day when returning home from practice she got in an argument with her mom and as she was super tired and still in a Sailor Mars mode, she told her mom that'd chastise her(折檻よ！). Ms. Frozen then asks how did her mom react and apparently she went silent and Ms. Frozen says that it really most have worked then and the other girls say that they have never heard this story before. When Rimo is asked the same question, she gets distracted and starts talking about the ensemble crew and how they are looking at her with such warm eyes. They talk about them for a bit until Ms. Frozen interrupts them asking if they can return to the main subject and meanwhile Rimo has already forgotten the question xD
As it was also her first time on stage so she was very confused about many things. Especially all the stage left ans stage right stuff and the markings on the stage (who stands where and all that stuff). And since the Senshi run a lot a when on stage and when told to run either stage left or stage right she was very confused where she should run. Yume then adds that it gets really confusing when the staff are telling them where to go from the audience so their lefts and rights are different. Ms. Frozen then adds two "ice" on both Karen and Rimo. The next question is were there any sort of accidents of mistakes that happened during the performances and it is asked from Yume and Kaede. Yume starts and tells about how they had swap their clothes really quickly from regular clothes to Sailor Senshi. Especially in AE in Shiratsuki Gonin Musume as Sailor Mercury came right after Sailor Moon so when she left the stage and Sailor Moon verse started, Yume only had like 30 or 40 seconds to swap clothes. So when went backstage, three members of staff were ready there to put the Sailor uniform on her. While they were putting it on her, for reason they stopped for reason and seemed very confused and even more staff members arrived there. It seemed that the zip on the back broke or got torn or something. And in the end she had 2-3 seconds before she has to run out to the stage and start her verse so then one of the staff members said to her: "Listen closely, you must not turn around under any circumstances" and then she rushed to the stage and started her verse trying not to show her back. And what made it more difficult was when she had to do her attack, Mercury Aqua Mirage, and usually she spun around while she did it so that time she had to do it without the spinning. After that they were able to salvage it with some sort of pin tho. She then adds that she is not sure what sort of "transformations" they do now and how fast they have to be but during AE they had to be super fast.
Kaede responds that since the Senshi have a lot of accessories like the chokers and earrings and the earrings even change between their civilian form and Senshi form so since there are so many accessories, many of them fall to the stage during the performances. Everyone agrees with her. And when someone notices that something has been dropped, the first thoughts is who is gonna pick that up? And start really thinking when would be a good opportunity to do it. And if it cannot be picked up and when entering backstage everyone would be told that something has been dropped and it should be picked up if possible. She then adds that if it is noticed that something has been dropped and if an enemy attacks, "falling" next to dropped item and then taking it to the backstage is something that is usually done. Since if they are not picked up someone might trip on them or something. Ms. Frozen then orders for the rest of the "ice" to be put on the girls and Kaede mentions that a familiar person is putting them on lol. The last question is for the past Senshi to give the new Senshi a "cold message".
Yume starts by saying that since Sera Myu has been able to continue all this time they are able to be there and hopes that it'll still continue for a very long time so that they'll have this amazing place to return to. And that she'll cheer them on for with all of her mighr. Karen says that ever since she been a part of Sera Myu she has found a lot of courage and dreams and is very grateful for everything. She then tells the new Senshi to do their very best. Kaede says that when she was performing she wasn't able to see it the same eay as the audience and now seeing it as a guest is amazing. She says that she'll cheer them on and to do their very best till the Senshuuraku. Rimo says that Sera Myu is one of her greatest treasures as it was her first performance and when she went to see KHnK(which she accidentally called Kaguya Hime no Monogatari XD) she remembered how much she loves Sera Myu and as she now saw how much fun everyone was having cheering and waving their penlights and she loved to see it how "this is a world where everyone becomes one". So it really reminded her how amazing Sera Myu is how exciting every performance is, with different guests for everyone, for the audience, the Sailor Senshi and even for the enemies and she at this point she had forgotten Ms. Frozen's name was about to call her Shining something😂😂 (i love her so much) Everyone starts laughing (it was so funny) and Ms. Frozen saves it smoothly by saying the she is shining indeed XD She than wishes the cast do their very best. Ms. Frozen then gets at mad them for telling such wonderful things and asks them who has the Silver Crystal(like she does with every other guest) And they all say Sailor Moon (tbh I was kinda hoping for them to say their own Senshi names lol). Ms. Frozen then tells them that they are wrong and they must be too frozen to answer properly. Yume then replies that she is wrong as they arrived there with such an fiery enthusiasm enough to melt any ice and then they sing of Speed of Light. After that the musical resumes
