Sailor Moon 30th Anniversary Musical Festival -Chronicle- (2022)
Opening Video
In celebration of Sera Myu history, this video played before each performance of the festival. It features a little of the first era of musicals (produced by Bandai), then recaps every show produced by Nelke up to the festival!
MORE RECORDINGS?!?!? Yes! I was able to buy tickets for both streams and while I'm not able to screen record them since I don't have a laptop or anything with me here (but someone else is working on that👀) but I was somehow able to audio record We are the Pretty Guardian by Satomi Ookubo(LR-UNV Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon and LMF Sailor Cosmos) and Momoyo Koyama(PE-UNV Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury) who were the guests on that performance!
It sounds like some sort if chipmunk version with the way they sing it lol
I asked my sister if she had any thoughts/comments about the musicals that she’s seen so far so that I could post them here.

Her favorite actors are:
Sailor Moon: Anza Ooyama and Miyuki Kanbe
Sailor Mercury: Chieko Kawabe
Sailor Mars: Megumi Yoshida
Sailor Jupiter: Minami Umezawa

Sailor Saturn: Ayami Kakiuchi and Karin Takahashi
Sailor Uranus: Nao Takagi
Sailor Neptune: Yuuka Asami
Sailor Chibi Moon: Ayano Gunji
She said there was a Sailor Venus that she really liked but she couldn’t remember which one.
Okay, so here’s what she remembers from the musicals she’s seen. I can’t guarantee that this is going to make 100% sense because we were being really silly when I was asking for her thoughts. I probably should’ve asked for her thoughts as we were watching them because she couldn’t remember a lot from some of them, but I’ll do that moving forward :)
Yume Senshi – Ai – Eien ni… (Kaiteiban) – Saturn Fukkatsu Hen: “That Pegasus made me feel scared, I couldn’t tell if it was flying away from or towards me. There should’ve been more Hawkseye” (because Hawkseye is played by Hikari Ono)
“These 3 Lights are my favorites because they are the nicest and they vibe with the other guardians” (in comparison to the 3 Lights in Le Mouvement Final and in the anime)
Kaguya Shima Densetsu Kaiteiban: “The pirates doing their walk is my last few brain cells” (about Kern, Serpen, and Kraken doing that weird walk where they are kind of crawling?? I don’t know how to describe it??)
Dracul musicals:
“Why doesn’t Michiru just bite Haruka and then they can be vampires together?”
“I couldn’t wait until the second one because you told me Vampir was in it, but everyone was mean to her and she just wanted her dad to be there for her, and when she changed her outfit to look like the cool kids he didn’t like it. Also Le Fay wanted to wear matching mother-daughter outfits”
When Vampir says “Damn it!” in “All of You Shall Die” my sister said “Did she forget her line?!” (she didn’t realize that it was part of the song).
Un Nouveau Voyage:
“You didn’t prepare me, I wasn’t ready for the Haruka!! You told me she was an idol, but I didn’t realize she was that kind of performer. I’m not mad, I’m just surprised, I was just so confused” (about Haruka’s idol performance at the beginning of the musical).
“Professor Tomoe doesn’t win father of the year award”
“This Michiru is baby, she looks really young”
Petite Étrangère:
“Sapphir was like ‘Demande, I think you’re being tricked’, and Demande was like ‘Don’t ask questions, just leave it to me’. And that didn’t work out well”.
“Maybe this is more manga-based and I haven’t read the manga, but how upset Usagi was over Chibiusa felt really exaggerated. It seemed like she tolerated her more in the anime and the other musicals. It felt really forced. I like Satomi better in Un Nouveau Voyage”
Le Mouvement Final:
“The 3 Lights were SO RUDE to Setsuna. THE DISRESPECT”
She said that Yaten (Saki Matsuda) reminded her of Yurio from Yuri on Ice. “Yaten is Yurio. If there were a Yuri on Ice musical, you’ve got a Yurio”.
“This Galaxia is terrifying”
10th Anniversary Festival – Ai no Sanctuary :
“Oh my god, they had matching jackets!! Happiest Happy Family!!” (We refer to the outers family as the Happy Family because they’re just so cute and we love them!!)
“I think Marina would’ve been a good Chibiusa. Or if they need an Usagi for like a flashback scene where Usagi was younger”
