10''Sailor Moon Abridged'' (SMA) is a GagDub of the 1992 ''Manga/SailorMoon'' anime created by Corinne "[=Megami33=]" Sudberg, written by Kris "[=KrisRix=]" Woodside, and also starring Eric "[=Roll002=]" Pietrangolare, Constantine "[=Whip0fAlchemy=]" Angelos, and Christian "[=Judgement915=]" Bellucci. This series covers the entire ''Dark Kingdom'' arc and most of the ''Doom Tree'' arc. It's a notable AbridgedSeries for being one of the few among its peers to have more than 40 episodes, and the first to prove that a female main cast can be just as funny.
11
12It derives most of its humor from {{flanderiz|ation}}ing the show's main characters, mocking its general premise and ''especially'' the show's [[{{Macekre}} famously horrible 1990s English dub]]. Not to mention just about anything else it can think of. There's also notably little reliance on pop culture and Internet references.
13
14All of its creators handle the writing and most of the voice acting. Season 2 adds [[https://www.youtube.com/user/evilchicken25 EvilChicken25]] of ''WebVideo/GargoylesAbridged'' and editor [[https://www.youtube.com/user/thenyceleb Lana Shittles]] to the cast. And none other than Creator/LittleKuriboh cameos as Moonlight Knight. Corinne herself is also part of Creator/TeamFourStar.
15
16Former members [=MaxSkate2001=] and [=Whip0fAlchemy=] both resigned for scheduling reasons. [=Whip0fAlchemy=] has since [[ExecutiveMeddling attempted]] abridging ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'' and joined the cast of ''WebVideo/MetalGearSolid2SonsOfAbridgerty''. SMA was dragged into JustForFun/TheWarOfTheAbridgedSeriesCreators in 2008, which they handled in a surprisingly mature way.

20The official site's domain has sadly expired, but an archived version is thankfully available [[https://web.archive.org/web/20150928112305/http://www.sailormoonabridged.com/ here]] (with still-active links to unlisted episodes on their main Website/YouTube account, as long as you delete the Internet Archive portion of a link) and the [[https://www.youtube.com/user/SMAseries backup YouTube account]] is sadly purged of episodes. However, [[https://archive.org/details/SMASeriesEpisode51/SMA+SERIES/SMA+Series+Episode+1.wmv Archive.Org]] still has all of the episodes. So be sure to download them if you're able!
21
22Seeing that no new videos have been put up since 2012, it's probably safe to assume this series has gone the way of the dinosaurs.
23
24In 2018, the Mexican youtuber [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHSp1HFjDElP-9Q9FMYlUEw/playlists Otamon]] did a Spanish dub of the series and an unofficial sequel, focusing on the ''Sailor Moon R'' season. It respects the continuity of the original abridged series, keeping the characterization and jokes, but because it's made in Mexico, the series is in Spanish.
25
26----
27!This show provides examples of:
28[[foldercontrol]]
29
30[[folder:Sailor Moon Abridged]]
31* AccidentalMisnaming:
32** Nephlite always gets Molly's name wrong. [[spoiler:Until his last two episodes, at least.]]
33** A lesser example in Episode 4, with Saffron. No one can remember exactly ''which'' spice she shares a name with.
34* AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle: The "Sailor Moon Says" segments are [[SpoofAesop thoroughly mocked]].
35** Occasionally, they Lampshade the fact that [[CluelessAesop some of the original morals don't make sense]].
36* AdaptationDeviation: The Mexican dub made several changes to the abridged.
37** The first season ended with the defeat of Queen Beryl and they made their own second season, the ''Sailor Moon R'' series.
38** There's an extra episode about Mina's backstory.
39** When Queen Beryl destroys the world in Queen Serenity's timeline, Sailor Saturn awakes and kills everyone. Also Saturn has Molly's obnoxious voice.
40** The battle against Queen Beryl, while funny, has some emotional moments.
41** The movie changed many things, such as Rini being more prominent and Sailor Moon gaslighting Fiore with a fake memory in order to turn him to the side of good before killing him. Also the movie ends with Rini shooting Serena with a fake gun as "punishment for endangering Darien". Then [[TheDitz Mina]] brings a real gun and starts shooting everyone for fun.
42** Alan and Ann have a different plotline and they're killed by Mina at the end of the episode.
43* {{Anvilicious}}:[[invoked]] The Remix episode really hammers in the message that ThePowerOfFriendship and TeamSpirit can help a team overcome a challenge, as it does the Sailor Scouts, while a refusal to cooperate can doom a team to failure, as it does the Negaverse generals.
44* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Pointed out in episode 32. Plot Point 5 - Mina somehow picks up Serena's DNA just from brushing her hair (enough to fool a DNA scanner disguised as a hair steamer). Of course, the original point was that a loose strand of Serena's hair could have wound up in Mina's brush, which then ended up in Mina's Hair. That one piece was picked up by the scanners. Plus, even if somehow all of those incredibly contrived events panned out exactly, it ''still'' wouldn't work because '''hair doesn't have any DNA in it'''. There might be a few testable skin cells on the follicle-end, but that's a long shot at best, and if the scanners were so absurdly sensitive that a few stray cells could fool them, anyone Serena made physical contact with in the past week would have yielded a similar false-positive result. In short, like Raye said, it is a [[NoIndoorVoice REALLY F#*KING RETARDED plot hole!]]
45* BetterThanABareBulb: Can cross into this at times with pointing out flaws in the anime.
46* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: All mentioned InUniverse:
47** The dream footage of Serena apparently marrying Tuxedo Mask ''and'' Andrew in Episode 13/14. {{Lampshaded}} by Serena.
48** In episode 32, Queen Beryl's orb does... ''something''...
49--->'''Orb''': "Unh!!" ''*brief flash of white flies out of the orb*''\
50'''Beryl''': "Sorry, it does that sometimes. Ignore it. What where you saying?"
51** Both {{Lampshaded}} and subverted in Episode 26/27, where Luna is being chased by a crowd of horny pussies, only to be saved by a large cerulean male cat. "Well, ''that'' was just pointless and weird," she grumbles... but the large male cat turns out to be the MonsterOfTheWeek.
52** In episode 36/37, the random singing of Pokemon parody songs, but most notably Ami's song, which was lampshaded by Greg's reaction
53** "Here's a completely useless scene, with Raye in pink overalls. Please laugh at your own discretion." ({{beat}}) "WHAT?"
54* BizarroUniverse: In the Remix Episode, the Sailor Scouts are transported to another dimension where everyone's names are different (the Sailors' are taken from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEXqoPgbH0c DiC's pitch reel]]), Sailor Mars tolerates her teammates better, Sailor Mercury speaks like a Pokémon, and everyone in the Negaverse has different personalities as well.
55* BlackComedy:
56-->'''Artemis''': Run Luna! Run off that pregnancy!\
57'''Luna''': What?! [[SomeonesTouchingMyButt I thought you said that was your tail!]]\
58'''Artemis''': Run it off, bitch!
59** We all know it ends with [[EarlyBirdCameo Diana]].
60** From episode 41: "Didn't there use to be an orphanage there?"
61** Used horrifically in episode 46/47.
62* BlackComedyRape: The ''whole'' plot of episode 42. DoubleSubverted in the Sailor Says!
63-->'''[=Megami33=]''': Hi Everyone, You know here at SMA we like to joke at a bunch of things but rape isn't funny. At all. In fact all those that joke about it should go straight to-(Gets taken away by several people)
64** Also invoked at the end of Episode 18 when Tuxedo Mask kisses a very, very drunk (and unconscious) Serena. She isn't perturbed by it in the slightest.
65--->'''Tuxedo Mask''': ''{romantic music cuts out}'' Unconscious girls can't say no!\
66''{cut to Sailor Says}''\
67'''Serena''': I GOT KISSED BY TUXEDO MASK! ''*{{squee}}s*''
68** From Episode 30, after Darien and Serena (unconscious) appear in front of Zoisite:
69--->'''Zoisite''': Ooh- woah there am I interrupting? Should I close up that pod for a minute, let you finish up there?\
70'''Darien''': No- no! She's just passed out.\
71'''Zoisite''': ''[-{Incredulously}-]'' That doesn't change anything.
72** And then of course, there's the question of how Serena and Darien had Rini when she was supposedly in a food coma for seven years.
73* BookEnds: The series begins with [[TheHero Serena]] waking up late for school screaming,
74--> ''Serena'': AAAH! I hear loud noises!
75** [[spoiler:It also ends like this; Serena wakes up having lost her memories of being Sailor Moon. She also says the [[CallBack exact same line as in the first episode]].]]
76* BrainBleach: Serena flips out when the "seed" metaphors in the movie get out of hand.
77** In another episode she requests some eye bleach. Lucky that Raye has some!
78* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: When the Sailor Scouts find Anne visiting the shrine where Raye works, Serena exclaims that she might do something evil, such as performing a voodoo ritual, [[DrugsAreBad taking drugs]], or performing a voodoo ritual ''while'' taking drugs.
79* BreadEggsMilkSquick: In episode 46/47 when Mina is talking down a kindergartner.
80--> '''Mina''': You are on my turf HONEY! We may share a classroom and like share books and share needles but I ain't sharing my clientele.
81* BrickJoke: In their version of episode 33, it just focuses on Serena going to (and getting expelled from) the finishing school. Then, before the episode ends, Serena realizes that she forgot something. Cut to the room filled with girls who were frozen in wax by the Monster of the Day and never rescued.
82** An earlier example from episode 3, where one of Serena's friends -- a short, nameless fat girl -- is on a treadmill at the gym while her trainer keeps pushing her to go faster. After the "Sailor Moon Says" segment, she's still running and begs the trainer to let her go home. His response: "No. Keep going, Pillsbury!"
83---> "I'm still fat from the other episode!"
84** "Still waiting on that pizza... [-pizza-]..."
85* ButtMonkey: In RealLife, [=Roll002=] (Eric). If the bloopers are any indication, he can't get through a single line without messing it up at least a few times. Add to this the fact that he plays villains [[TheOtherDarrin and, later, Darien]] (who are, by definition, MrExposition) and we get a lot of bloopers and a very sarcastic SMA crew.
86* CallBack:
87** Episode 39 is referenced by Artemis in TheMovie, when he mentions the moon kingdom had no militia.
88** When Beryl yells at Zoisite at the start of Episode 23 and Zoisite can't counter any of her arguments, she harkens back to Episode 8 when she quips that [[MediumAwareness at least they're the opening skit this time]].
89* CallingYourAttacks: Just like in the dub, but exclusive to the show:
90--> '''Useless Attack, Blast!''' - Sailor Mercury\
91'''RUN AWAY!''' - Sailor Mercury\
92'''Moon Healing Activation, GODDAMMIT!!''' - Sailor Moon\
93'''GIANTCRYSTALOFDEATH!!!''' - Queen Beryl\
94'''Venus Anal Beads, Vaginate!''' - Sailor Venus\
95'''Jupiter Hoe Slap Nipple Shocker!''' - Sailor Jupiter\
96'''Jupiter Home Biscuit Dizzle Slices Crash!''' - Sailor Jupiter
97* CatholicSchoolgirlsRule: "CATHOLIC GIRLS TASTE BETTER."
98* CensorBox: Lita's friend Ken took a real long dive early in episode 43. Amy knows it can't be good since there's a [[MediumAwareness giant censor bar]] on him.
99-->'''Serena''': (In response to Amy's and Lita's concern) You guys are overreacting. I'm sure he's (''censor bar shifts a little to show a pool of blood'') [=fiiIIINNEEE!!=] OH, GOD, PUT IT BACK! PUT IT BACK!
100* ChristmasSongs: Parodied in an album offered on their site. Chris "Kirbopher" Niosi, Megami's (ex)boyfriend, animated a video of one, including [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sailor_pac_man.jpg drawing]] Serena as VideoGame/PacMan.
101* ComicallyMissingThePoint:
102-->'''"Trainer"''': "Hey guys, I'm your token homosexual of the episode."\
103'''Serena''': "He's really cute, but the purple's a little [-gay-]."\
104'''Molly''': "Serena, he already ''said'' he's a homosexual."\
105'''Serena''': "So does that make him ''gay?''"
106* CompressedAdaptation: In the original North American dub of ''Sailor Moon R'', Luna restored the memories of Amy, Raye, Lita, and Mina in episode #42, returned their old transformation pens in the same episode, and gave them upgraded pens in episode #56. In the ''SMA'' version, Luna gives the girls their restored memories ''and'' upgraded pens in episode #42.
107* ContractualGenreBlindness: Episode 26/27 (even though s/he's definitely shocked when s/he fails):
108-->'''Zoisite''': The fact that I'm showing up within the first thirty seconds of this episode proves that I'm not going to succeed, even though all the odds are in my favor.
109* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: The unofficial Mexican dub of the movie ends with Luna saying that Fiore's plan to crash the Earth with his flowers would have failed anyway because they would have burned upon entering the atmosphere. Nobody is happy about this....except Raye, because she got to see Fiore die in such a sadistic way.
110* CurseCutShort: "But do not fail me, Jedite, or I will shove these nails straight up your--"
111-->[[BrickJoke "Oh shit, I'm... gonna get nailed."]]
112* TheDayTheMusicLied: Happens in Episode 46/47, when Sailor Venus stops her ThemeMusicPowerUp to call [[MonsterOfTheWeek Vultros]] out on attempting to use the "[[Anime/DragonBallZ Over Nine Thousand]]!" meme.
113---> '''Sailor Venus''': "That shit hasn't been funny since 2007!"
114* DefiledForever:
115-->'''Molly''': He touched me! I'm not a virgin anymore!
116** Also...
117--->"He touched that boy's breast! There's no greater offense!"
118* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "Did you just self-censor yourself?"
119* DevilInPlainSight: Most of Jedite's schemes for sucking energy were not what you'd call subtle.
120** "Hey, nerd, you've really put in a lot of ENERGY into this class and I'm really impressed by your ENERGY input. So I wanted you to lead the class today and teach them how to give more ENERGY for completely innocent reasons. …'''ENERGY!'''"
121*** "That was really weird. [[CaptainObvious She sure says 'energy' a lot]]."
122* DisneyDeath: The resurrections in Episode 40 and ''Promise of the Lost Rose'' occur more abruptly than they did in the show.
123* TheDogBitesBack: [[AssholeVictim Some idiots tried]] [[AttemptedRape sexually assaulting]] [[HeroicComedicSociopath Raye]] [[SuperVillainLair in her own home]] [[AloneWithThePsycho alone]]. [[TakeOurWordForIt Whatever she did]], [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil they]] [[LaserGuidedKarma deserved it]] [[PayEvilUntoEvil on every]] [[TooDumbToLive possible level]].
124* DontExplainTheJoke:
125-->'''Raye''': YOU'RE TURNING ME DOWN?! WELL, I HOPE YOU GO TO HEAVEN!\
126'''Chad''': What?\
127'''Amy''': I think that since Raye holds Hell in such a high regard, spending the afterlife in Heaven is a terrible fate for her, hence the insult.\
128'''Serena''': And that is the joke!
129** Happened again in the trailer for the remix episode:
130---> [Sailor Moon]'s sailing to the USA! Get it? It's a pun! Because [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment she's a sailor who's sailing]]. From the moon!
131* DoubleEntendre: Too many to count.
132--> '''Alan''': "Please say I can play my flute for you."\
133'''Serena''': "You can do whatever you want with that flute!"
134* DressHitsFloor: Used by Zoicite to ditch her fake Sailor-Senshi costume and reveal her standard [[SpaceClothes Negaverse uniform]]. ...[[FridgeLogic Which involves grey slacks]], even though when she was wearing the SailorFuku there was a PantyShot.
135* DudeShesLikeInAComa: Beryl, with unconscious Darien in her evil grasp!
136** Also, Tuxedo Mask with the unconscious Serena.
137---> '''Tuxedo Mask''': "Unconscious girls can't say no!"
138** Serena makes a call-back at the end of the series in the Mexican dub....with Darien's corpse.
139---> '''Serena''': "Dead boys can't say no!"
140** Again in episode 30, when Zoicite teleports Darien and Serena, who is unconscious, into the Negaverse's lair.
141--->'''Zoicite''': Welcome Tuxedo Ma- [[InconvenientSummons whoa, there! Am I interrupting?]] Do you want me to close up that pod again, give you a minute to finish up there?\
142'''Darien''': [[NotWhatItLooksLike No, no- she's just passed out.]]\
143'''Zoicite''': ''(scoffs)'' That doesn't change anything.
144** This comes up when the scouts discuss where Rini came from
145--->'''Mina''': Don't you remember? You were in a food coma for seven years and this is your daughter, Rini\
146'''Serena''': ''(visually shocked/confused)'' WHAT!? How the heck did that happen!?
147* EarlyBirdCameo: [[spoiler: Sailors Uranus and Neptune show up backstage while the evil clown ruins the ''Snow White'' play and attacks everyone, but decide to wait a few episodes before they start randomly appearing to save the Sailor Scouts.]]
148* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first few episodes contain a LaughTrack, and footage from the first 30 episodes seem to retain [=DiC's=] added censorship and effects (such as the IdiosyncraticWipes).
149** Apparently the laugh track was in-universe as Sammy once asks where all the laughter is coming from.
150* ElementalRockPaperScissors: Subverted. "Yeah like fire's gonna help when you're fighting water. Oh shit it did."
151* EvenEvilHasStandards: Subverted each time it occurs.
152** When Jadeite suggests that he be given a sidekick to help him, Beryl seems to reject it on the grounds of pedophilia, but it's probably more that she thinks he'd get distracted. [[AllGaysArePedophiles Plus, she essentially saying she thinks he'll exploit a teenage boy just because he's gay.]]
153** In another episode, Zoisite is worried about going after a priest, but it's because she doesn't want trouble from the Vatican, rather than the man being a holy man.
154* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Serena blatantly displays LesYay when she first meets Raye and Mina.
155-->'''Meeting Raye''': Wow! I wanna be a lesbian for her!\
156'''Meeting Mina''': HAWT!
157** Rei for her fangirls/hench-girls. And Serena when they first met until she realized what Rei's personality was actually like.
158* EverybodyLaughsEnding: The Remix episode
159* EyesAlwaysShut: [[NoIndoorVoice "GRANDPA! WEAR YOUR GLASSES, DAMMIT! YOU LOOK LIKE]] [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} BROCK!"]]
160* FakeStatic: Attempted. With videophones.
161-->'''Serena''': What's that? I can't hear you! ''kkkkkkkkkkch'' You're breaking up!\
162'''Amy''': Serena, ''I can see you!''\
163'''Serena''': ...No you can't.
164* {{Filler}}: Parodied to the most logical extreme.
165** An example being episode 32, in which they just point out all the important (and not-so-important) plot points.
166*** "Plot Point 4: [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment Beryl's Orb did... something]]" ("Sorry, it does that sometimes. Ignore it! What were you saying?")
167** Episode 33 cuts out the fighting, leaving just the finishing school plot.
168** Amy was left for dead in Episode 34. But then again, considering it's filler, [[SnapBack it won't even matter]].
169-->'''Luna''': [[LampshadeHanging "Windows Vista Intelligence System. We're 33 episodes into this show. How come nothing has actually happened yet?"]]
170* {{Flanderization}}: Par for the course, being an AbridgedSeries.
171* {{Foreshadowing}}: In an early episode, Melvin discuseses the character of the day, Princess Diamond, who he says has no relation to Prince Diamond. When Serena asks who that is, Melvin says she'll see when the show gets to that part, to which she answers the show will never get that far, and sure enough, the show indeed ended before the second half of Sailor Moon R, which is where Diamond appears.
172* FromDressToDressing: Just like in the series, Molly does this for Nephlite. She tries to play it up for {{Fanservice}}, but he was too busy taking off his shirt to notice.
173* FunnyForeigner: Andrew (see CanadaEh) and Rita, who is a Swede with limited English skills here.
174* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Raye slapped Serena five consecutive times in Episode 31, but Serena [[TooKinkyToTorture got used to it]]. Amy also slapped Serena in the season finale, only to get kicked out of the team.
175* GilliganCut: Episode 2.
176-->'''Serena''': Everybody's gonna love my letter!\
177''{cut immediately to Serena sitting by the radio}''\
178'''Serena''': Those pricks didn't read my letter!
179* GloriousMotherRussia: Where Alan and Anne pretend to be from.
180* TheGodsMustBeLazy: Jesus doesn't seem too keen on helping the Scouts out whenever they call on him. Considering that one of their members is a proud Satanist...
181** Though at least one episode had him say he was busy dying for everyone's sins, so... Subverted...?
182* GoshDangItToHeck: Aside from one instance of 'heck' from Luna in Episode 41, and the "Bridge to Heck" sign in the war video, it [[AvertedTrope never happened in the series]].
183** Well, Serena did say "Oh my gosh" a few times, but it didn't seem to be an intentional toning-down.
184* GratuitousForeignLanguage: RunningGag throughout Season 2. In Episode 42, the Scouts transform in the [[GratuitousEnglish original Japanese phrases]]. Lampshaded kind of by Mina.
185-->'''Mina''': I spoke in Asian!!
186** In Episode 43 Sailor Moon transformed with [[GratuitousSpanish the Castilian Spanish phrase]], 44 used Cantonese, 45 Swedish and 46/47 GratuitousGerman. Usually rather poorly pronounced, but AsLongAsItSoundsForeign...
187* GuiltByAssociation: All the sailor scouts [[spoiler:go to hell in the first season's finale]], even [[NiceGirl Amy]], despite Raye being the only one who's a Satanist.
188* AHellOfATime: After [[spoiler:Raye is killed during the season finale]], her "motivational speech" for Serena is to not die and ruin her eternal paradise.
189** Although if SHE enjoys it so much, it must REALLY be bad...
190* HijackedByJesus: Sort of. Jesus appears as an unseen character. And at one point Sailor Moon saves a priest.
191** Having Raye being a Satanic Pyromaniac instead of a Shinto temple {{Miko}} would probably qualify. No complaints here though :)
192** From the episode 7 bloopers:
193--->'''Amy''': "Please, Jesus, bring my friends home."\
194'''Jesus''': "No."
195* HilariousOuttakes: There are consistent blooper reels for the first 22 episodes.
196* HypocriticalHumor: From Episode 35:
197-->'''[[NoIndoorVoice Raye]]''': "GOD, ARTEMIS, YOU'RE SO LOUD!"
198** A meta example when Mina (played by [=KrisRix=]) castigates a MonsterOfTheWeek for trying to invoke the "Over 9000" meme, when Amy (also played by [=KrisRix=]) did exactly that during Episode 10.
199* IfYouDieICallYourStuff: In Episode 10 (the one where Jedite dies).
200-->'''Random Negaverse Creep''': Can I have your [[PornStash porno collection]]?
201** In episode 46/47, Mina's kindergartner protege/rival calls dibs on Mina's turf if she snuffs it. [[ThemeMusicPowerUp Mina doesn't take it well]].
202* ImAHumanitarian: When Serena was starving she contemplated eating a little kid. [[TemptingFate A little kid happened to be passing by.]] He was obviously terrified beyond belief when she approached him.
203* InMemoriam:[[invoked]] Episode 46/47 is dedicated to [[spoiler:Jordan Winston, Jr. II, the baby Serena and Darien were babysitting.]] To Amy's horror, [[spoiler:Serena threw him into the garbage.]]
204** Played straight in an earlier episode which was dedicated to the memory of [=KrisRix's=] pet hamster.
205* InTheNameOfTheMoon, [[ParodiedTrope I like wiener schnitzel!]]
206* IronicEchoCut:
207-->'''Darien''': Don't underestimate her and her friends, simpleton. She'll never go to the ski resort.\
208'''Serena''': I love the ski resort!
209** Or...
210--->'''Andrew''': You'll never leave me, right?\
211'''Rita''': Ja!\
212''(cut to the airport)''\
213'''Andrew''': I guess I'll see you around, eh?\
214'''Rita''': Ja! Bye-bye!
215* KilledOffForReal: Implied with Jesus, he says at one point he's dying for everyone's sins, he hasn't been heard ever again since then.
216* Music/LadyGaga: Alan is a fan of hers - he plays various songs of hers on the flute. Mixed with MediumAwareness when Mina hears him playing [[{{Leitmotif}} "[=LoveGame=]"]] inside the VR theatre in Episode 44.
217-->'''Alan''': I definitely know your culture! For instance, I am down with the Gaga lady!
218* LargeHam: "Are you questioning ''the talking cat''?"
219** Nephlite as well when he goes off on his "Star" based rants.
220--->'''Nephlite''': Everything is ruled by the ''stars''. [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment The movement of the]] ''[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment stars]]'' [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment rules everything. The ruling of everything is by the]] ''[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment stars]]''. [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment The]] ''[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment stars?]]'' [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment They]] ''[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment rule.]]''
221** [=KrisRix=]. It'd take too long to list all of the hammy characters he voices, so...just [=KrisRix=].
222* LarynxDissonance: Andrew ([=KrisRix=]) and Malachite ([=Whip0fAlchemy=]).
223** Played with by [=Whip0fAlchemy=], who (as of [=LordQuadros=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTvxbwtaCSE "Yay, we got engaged!" video]]) has been established as a transgender man. However, he has on multiple social media networks stated (i.e. Facebook) that he is "pre-everything" and cannot afford to take hormones, therefore, he is naturally an example of LarynxDissonance for either gender.
224* LeftHanging: The last episode of the series has Ann saying that the Scouts would be fighting on their turf next time with a ominous shot of the Doom Tree. This was meant to set up the two-part finale that would have ended SMA (as said by WordOfGod they planned to end at the Doom Tree Saga and do the other two movies) but RealLife got in the way and SMA was discontinued.
225* {{Leitmotif}}: For the girls' transformation sequences:
226** '''Sailor Moon''' - "Barbie Girl" by Aqua;
227*** SMA Remix: "Hungry Hippo" by Parry Gripp;
228---->"Oh, '''*honk*''' you, SMA!"
229*** Movie (and [[strike:Season 2]] Episode 45 - Present): "Candy Store" by Hyper Crush;
230** '''Sailor Mercury''' - "Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice;

245* LimitedAnimation: Serena personally [[MediumAwareness points out this trope in action]] during Episode 23.
246-->'''Serena''': Wow! That blur filter almost makes it look like he's moving! [[LimitedAnimation I love low-budget anime!]]
247* TheLoad: Sailor Mercury is so utterly useless in a fight, Serena offered a MonsterOfTheWeek Mercury's position. Plus, the one time she DOES defeat a monster, Serena is convinced that the Moonlight Knight took care of it. The worst part: He took the credit. Ouch.
248** Mina manages to be even more useless, being so ditzy as to actually FORGET how to transform at one point, only remembering when all the fighting is over. Also, at the finishing school ball, she nearly forgot her own name.
249--->'''Serena''': What? Raye? Amy? Lita? Mina?\
250'''Mina''': My name's no- oh, wait...
251*** It should be noted in season 1, Mina only ever did anything all of TWICE. The first time in her introduction to save the Scouts, and the second time to kill a PsychoRangers version of herself for having bad hair (which also resulted in her own death)
252** And most tedious of all is rescuing Molly for the umpteenth time.
253--->'''Serena''': Christ, ''again?'' I mean, every '''*honk*'''ing episode...
254* LyricalDissonance: Raye's song "Oh Bloody Night" sounds like a sweet love song, but is about how she tortures a guy for Satan.
255** Actually, judging by the first two lines of the song(and the first subliminal photo in the part of the song in the actual episode) it may be about her torturing her boyfriend(?), Chad, which makes it both this and a "normal" love song.
256* ManOfAThousandVoices: If no one else, then definitely [=KrisRix=] – he voices Amy/Mercury, Raye/Mars, Mina/Venus, Beryl, Zoicite, Andrew, Molly, and any number of random background characters.
257** Eric as well, though it's somewhat more obvious it's him. He plays Melvin, Lita/Jupiter, Jedite, Nephlite, and Darien ([[TheOtherDarrin sometimes]]).
258** Corinne is no slouch either, playing Serena/Moon, Luna, Haruna, Sammy, Serena's mom, Jesus, and any incidental characters Kris or Eric don't play.
259* MediumAwareness: Per standard procedure as on so many Abridged series. Though this one does it more often than most.
260* MilestoneCelebration:[[invoked]] Episode 50 includes several gags written by the viewers.
261* MoodWhiplash: Certain scenes (like Nephlite's death and the flashback to the destruction of the Moon Kingdom) are honestly played a bit too straight to be funny. It's seriously jarring, especially as the dubbing is still deliberately comically bad.
262* MotorMouth: Nancy Vargas, the IntrepidReporter from Episode 38.
263-->'''Serena''': I, uh, have a letter from Sailor Moon!\
264'''Nancy''': [=OhmyGodwhatascoop!=] [=Itsaysshewantstomeetmeattheparkatmidnightandtellmeallabouthowshewantsto=]\
265[=quittheSailorScoutteambutIdon'tknowwhyI'mreadingthistoyoubutheyhow'dyougetthis=]\
266[=letteranywaysyoucouldn'tpossiblybeSailorMoonyoulooknothinglikeher!=]\
267'''Serena''': I have nooo idea what you just said! Bye!
268* TheMovie: The first was released on February 18, 2010, but before Season 2 actually began. According to Episode 45, they're in a different canon from the rest of the series, so Serena should've forgotten about it afterwards...
269* MusicalEpisode: Doubles as a Pokemon Crossover, sort of...
270** Somewhat lampshaded in the same episode when Greg, on the phone with Amy, reacts to her sudden burst of song like a normal person might - first confusedly, then just giving up and hanging up the phone.
271* NegatedMomentOfAwesome: The first time Raye uses her Shinto scrolls onscreen, she fails to eliminate the evil force she sensed, because Serena got in the way of her scroll.
272** Poor Amy. If those sailor scouts only saw you destroy that monster in Episode 46/47, you could've gotten some, if any, respect.
273* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: The "time-rewinding powers" Darien used to pull Serena to safety when she nearly fell off a balcony. He received such powers as a reference to the fact that in [=DiC=]'s version, the footage of Serena falling plays backwards to make it look like Darien pulled her back up. (Originally, they both fell and [[ParasolParachute used Usagi's parasol as a parachute]].)
274** Sailor Moon once turned her tiara into a "lesbian trapper", binding the MonsterOfTheWeek. When Luna asked Sailor Moon how she did that, she answered, "Hell if I know! This show makes no sense!"
275%%* NoblewomansLaugh: Zoisite and Malachite laughing must be heard to be believed.
276* NominalHero: The entire cast, really, a collection of [[{{Jerkass}} jerks]], [[TheDitz idiots]], a [[HeroicComedicSociopath psychopath]], a drunk, are basically a generally incompetent and unsympathetic bunch.
277** The unofficial ''Sailor Moon R'' sequel reveals they're aware of it though.
278-->'''Rini:''' You don't just ruin everything, you follow the orders of that whiny and useless Sailor Moon.
279-->'''Raye:''' And your point is....?
280-->'''Rini:''' Serena doesn't deserve to be Sailor Moon. She's not a warrior of love and justice....SHE'S A USELESS FATASS!
281-->'''Raye:''' You're goddamn right.
282-->'''Rini:''' .....W-what?
283-->'''Mina:''' Like, nobody in their right mind would give Serena that power and responsibility.
284-->'''Lita:''' Or any of us, yo! But that's how things are.
285* NonSerialMovie: Played for all its dodgy canon by being put right after the ''first'' season rather than somewhere in the second.
286* NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer: Some of the [=DiC=] dub's more ridiculous lines were kept in as-is, with a caption like "(actual dialog in the English dub)" appearing on-screen.
287** If a scene has a particularly weird line-read, it may be accompanied with "(she actually talks like this in the dub)".
288** Lampshaded when Serena comes up with an insult so bizarre, EvenTheSubtitlerIsStumped as to where the hell it came from, the caption reading simply: (actual dialog in the English dub'''?''')
289* ObliviousYoungerSibling: Literally with Sammy. It's become a running gag that Serena has no idea who he is.
290* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Melvin torments Molly with Nephlite's death repeatedly.
291** In a minor scale, both Serena and Amy stop trusting Luna after she confused Amy for a monster of the Negaverse for a few episodes.
292* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Titus refused to join the Sailor Scouts as the new Mercury because the Negaverse pays better.
293* OverNineThousand: The only time you'll ever hear [[ShyBlueHairedGirl Amy]] scream like [[NoIndoorVoice Raye]].[[note]] (admittedly something of a case of EarlyInstallmentWeirdness)[[/note]]
294** When one of the two [[MonsterOfTheWeek Monsters Of The Week]] in Episode 46/47 tried to use that line, Mina cuts it off, stating [[DiscreditedMeme it hasn't been funny since 2007]].
295* OverlyLongGag: From episode one: Sailor Moon is heeeeeeeeeeeeeeere-eeeeerrrrrrrrreeee-eeeeeeerrrrrrrrreee… …yeah.
296** And one example from the movie.
297--->'''Lita''': Jupiter Home Biscuit Dizzle Slices Crash!\
298'''Mina''': Haha, woah Lita like, no, never again, joke over!
299** Episode 28:
300--->'''Serena''': Wow, Luna, way to stereotype, you bitch! I guess all fat people like cake and donuts too, right?\
301'''Luna''': You said it, not me.\
302'''Serena''': ...And pizzas, and pretzels, and chips...\
303'''Luna''': Okay, Serena, I get it.\
304'''Serena''': ...And cotton candy, and corn dogs, and hot dogs, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick dogs in general]]...\
305'''Luna''': This is Japan, not Korea!
306* PalsWithJesus: As an unseen character, who tends to speak up with an annoyed "''What?''" if someone takes His name in vain. Amy seems to be his favorite, though.
307* PassThePopcorn: Sailor Mars in episode 20.
308* PerfectlyCromulentWord: Continuing the "[[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer Actual dialogue in the English dub?]]" gag:
309-->'''Serena''': "Oh, come on, Luna, don't be such a stoidgemeister!"\
310'''Luna''': "A what??"\
311'''Serena''': "I like making up words! Fudgecracklesnott!"\
312'''Luna''': (EyeTake)
313** Serena does it again when she threatens to beat someone into the "Tyrannosphere".
314* PersonAsVerb: [=KrisRix=] suggested in the bloopers to refer to the team's mishaps as Erics, for [[ButtMonkey obvious reasons]].
315* PokemonSpeak: The stray cats in episode 26/27.
316* PostScriptSeason: The Doom Tree arc. To elaborate, Kris mentioned in an interview that, at the time, she only saw herself and the rest of her team getting through season one.
317* PreAssKickingOneLiner: Played straight and then subverted in episode 21:
318-->'''[[MonsterOfTheWeek MotW]]''': I am Game Machine Man! Time to play...WHACK-A-BITCH!\
319'''[[TheBigGuy Lita]]''': Time to play- oh, f'''*honk*'''k it! I'ma just beat the shit outta you!
320* [[PsychoExGirlfriend Psycho Ex Boyfriend]]: Fiore. But not from any of the girls... That's right. Not even [[ReallyGetsAround Mina]].
321* PsychoRangers: The Doom and Gloom girls are made into this for the Scouts. Though only the evil-Mina has a personality similar to her counterpart
322* PublicServiceAnnouncement : Amy tries to deliver one of these until Raye and Serena show up and give it their [[JerkAss usual treatment]].
323* PunctuatedForEmphasis: MUST! PRAY! TO! SATAN!!!
324** Also by Raye, as she sees Sailor Venus fly away for the first time:
325--->'''Raye''': "STUPID. BITCH. CAN FLY. WHAT THE ''F[[SoundEffectBleep *honk*]]K''."
326* RealLifeWritesThePlot: The aforementioned PSA is about [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_mononucleosis mononucleosis]], brought up because Eric ([=Roll002=]) had come down with the illness and had to be replaced as Lita for the episode.
327** Another one comes in Episode 36/37 where Prince Darien states that he loves Twilight. In real life, Eric is a fan of it.
328* ReallyGetsAround: Mina and, to a lesser extent, Darien.
329* RecordNeedleScratch: This series ''loves'' this. It usually happens when someone says self-incriminating…
330-->'''Alan''': (Actual English Dub Dialog) Serena, my love for you circles the orbit of your planet—\
331'''Serena''':: *vrrrp!!* WHAT?!
332** But it can also happen when something in the show makes no sense, like in Episode 3 when the Moon Tiara is able to bind the MonsterOfTheWeek (something it was not shown to do before or after).
333* RoboSpeak: Serena does this after Darien reveals himself as Tuxedo Mask, for no good reason other than to emulate [=DiC=]. And of course she lampshades it ''while'' saying the line.
334-->'''Serena''': Oh my god Darien is Tuxedo Mask. I can't believe it. I don't know why I'm talking like a robot.\
335[[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer (Yes she actually speaks this way in the dub)]]
336* RunningGag: Many of them including, but not limited to:
337** [[YouAreFat Fat jokes]]. No episode would be complete without one of Serena's friends, enemies, or family members delivering a couple of these. Some of them get quite creative too.
338** Other characters' inability to hear anything [[ShyBlueHairedGirl Amy]] says.
339** Raye's desire to sacrifice people to Satan.
340** Lita's none-too-convincing attempts to pass as a girl.
341** Serena not being aware she has a brother.
342** Zoisite's inability to determine [[strike:her]] [[strike:his]] whatever-has-a-void-down-there gender.
343** Nephlite never getting Molly's name right.
344*** It's Mawwwwwwwwwwwlly.
345** Nephlite and the stars… which ''rule''.
346** Melvin (and later Serena) constantly reminding Molly about her dead boyfriend.
347** Queen Beryl's addiction to the Internet.
348** Queen Beryl's unhealthy fixation on Darien.
349** Artemis' drunken ramblings, and (eventually successful) attempts to seduce Luna.
350** The Moon Princess is still waiting for that pizza.
351** Mina's promiscuity.
352** A bit of a minor one, but whenever someone says Jesus' name, the off-screen voice of Him will respond with, "Yeah?"
353** Saying a line from the DIC dub and pausing with stunned silence, disbelief, reaction or apology.
354* SarcasticClapping: Raye, at Amy, in the movie.
355* {{Satan}}: Raye's almighty lord.
356* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: Words like "Rose", "Whoosh", "Kaboom", and "Loud noises", which you just have to hear to believe.
357** In the very first episode, when Luna opens Serena's bedroom window: "Creak."
358** Also: "Shit be blowin' up!"
359** A quiet example- [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} "Ring, ring, ring, ring. Phone call. Phone call."]]
360** Not to mention Mina usually saying "Giggle!" instead of giggling.
361* ScareChord: A handful of stock variations are used, and you'll often hear at least two different ones in the same episode.
362* ShesAManInJapan: Zoisite gets really {{Mind Screw}}ed by this. It has been established that his/her gender is in fact "Void".
363-->'''Zoisite''': What? You want me to wear a skirt?\
364'''Queen Beryl''': What's wrong with that?\
365'''Zoisite''': But... but...\
366'''Queen Beryl''': You ''are'' a woman, aren't you?\
367'''Zoisite''': ''{breaking down}'' I... I don't know anymore!
368** This was a TakeThat to Creator/DiC, the original dubbers of ''Anime/SailorMoon''; they made Zoisite a woman.
369** His/her upskirt-causing hijinks as a faux-Sailor Scout are accompanied by horrified cries of "Oh my God what ''is'' that thing?!" When the camera is low enough to get a {{panty shot}}, all we can see is what looks like a portal to a realm of madness.
370* ShoutOut: Episode 50, courtesy of a fan, has Melvin commenting that he got the animal costumes on short notice from his friend named [[WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries Joey]].
371** Episode 36/37 is pretty much one giant reference to the Pokémon dub.
372* SlidingScaleOfSillinessVersusSeriousness: ''Very'' silly. It's an AbridgedSeries after all. However, parts of the flashback sequence in episode 39 are [[CerebusSyndrome definitely serious]].
373** Nephlite's death in Episode 20 is also played fairly serious… at least until Raye realizes what's going on and deliberately kills the mood.
374--->"OH GOD~!! Wait. This is great! Where's the popcorn?"
375* SomethingElseAlsoRises: Rare female version on episode 20 – after Molly sees Nephlite fight back against the demons who kidnapped her, the ''demon'' says, "I think I just wet my panties... and not with pee-pee."
376** (It's an easy mistake to make, but one of the bloopers has [=KrisRix=] saying that line in ''Molly's'' voice and Megami correcting him)
377* SoundEffectBleep: The '''*honk*'''ing effect is so popular, the creators have apologized[[note]] (they actually called it a Halloween treat)[[/note]] for forgetting to use it from time to time.
378** Episode 2 contained some additional sound effects as the students watch an ambulance take away Miss Haruna:
379--->'''Serena''': Seriously guys, that mother'''*slide whistle*''', monkey'''*foghorn*''', doughnut-sucking '''*bicycle horn*''' failed me. Who cares if she dies?\
380'''Molly''': Aw, Serena, you're a total [[PrecisionFStrike bitch]]!\
381''(LaughTrack)''
382* {{Spexico}}: The caption before episode 43 starts is "Today's episode is brought to you by España" (Spanish for Spain), but the backround picture shown is the Mexican flag. At first it might look like a blatant error, but the title song was the Latin American version and the [[ByThePowerOfGrayskull transformation key phrase]] was the Castilian Spanish one, so it was actually {{played with}}, [[RuleOfFunny maybe too much]].
383** This combined with [[CanadaEh the Northern Mexico comments]] can also be taken as [[CreatorsCultureCarryover every other country]] can be mocked.
384* SpoofAesop: The "Sailor Says" segments are used to teach these, encouraging (among other things) bulimia, steroid use, and Satanism.
385* SpoofedWithTheirOwnWords: The "actual dub dialogue" has become a staple of the series, to the point that there are now several of these lines per episode.
386** There has also been "actual noise from the English dub (Sort of)" and "she actually talks like this in the dub".
387** And a couple times, even the SMA crew couldn't figure out the dialogue themselves – the "tyrannosphere" line in Episode 17 and the "stoigemeister" line in Episode 26/27 had the disclaimers typed with a question mark.
388** Episode 45: "Actual lack of [=DiC=] dialogue." The villain in question is limited to the NoblewomansLaugh and the occasional "Racy!"
389** Episode 18 had the famous scene where Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Moon fall over a balcony and use [[ParasolParachute an umbrella to float down safely]]. Probably [[DontTryThisAtHome to keep kids from trying this out]], [=DiC=] cut the part after they both fell and ''reversed'' the part where Tuxedo Mask lost his grip on Serena's wrist.
390---> '''Tuxedo Mask''': Oh, goddammit, she's so heavy! I have to use my [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands time-rewinding powers]]!
391* StockFootage: Aside from the normal [[TransformationSequence uses]] associated with a MagicalGirl series, the show occasionally uses footage from previous episodes when the current episode doesn't have enough dialogue scenes.
392* SuddenVideoGameMoment: In Episode 36/37, Sailor Mercury and Prince Darien faced off against each other as if they're in a Pokémon battle.
393* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Fiore does ''not'' consider Darien his lover, he did ''not'' sleep with him when he was ten, and he most certainly is ''not'' gay.
394** Or you can interpret it [[StalkerWithACrush another way]].
395*** Whaddaya mean ''[[TransparentCloset interpret]]''?
396** And there's also this part of Episode 43:
397--->'''Alan''': Serena, my feelings reach beyond the orbit of your planet[[note]] (Actual Dialogue from the English Dub)[[/note]].\
398'''Serena''': Your what?\
399'''Alan''': I mean, your country! Yes, It was silly of me to say planet because that makes me seem like some kind of alien which of course I'm not because we're from the same planet. That being Earth. Which I'm from. Like you.
400* TakeOurWordForIt: Several scenes and a fair amount of episodes were cut down to a bare-bones summary or omitted entirely for being (a) [[{{Filler}} obvious filler]] or (b) mind-numbingly boring (or, [[TakeAThirdOption as a third option]], ''both''). Every time, Serena or the narrator would assure the audience that they didn't miss much, and we're better off for not having seen it.
401* TakeThat: To fans who might harp on them over inaccuracies. And to anyone who ever posted a comment, got offended by the show, or entered in contests. It takes a special mindset to be an SMA fan.
402** And to Windows Vista.
403** "I'll have you know that I'm the star of [=Megami33=]'s Sailor Moon Abridged. You know, the only ''good one'' on Website/YouTube!"
404** Episode 46/47 has Sailor Venus do a TakeThat at 4Chan and the "Over Nine Thousand!" meme, the latter of which she says "hasn't been funny since 2007!"
405* TakeThatAudience: During Episode 28, when Raye and Lita complain that it's 1991 and therefore mini-computers and PDAs haven't been invented yet, we cut to a viewer saying (in Melvin's voice) that they will have to look up the exact dates those things were invented and ridicule the SMA crew for getting it wrong, only to be interrupted by Raye screaming '''"GET A LIFE LOSERS!"'''
406* TapOnTheHead: Parodied in Episode 26/27, when after the MonsterOfTheWeek attacks Chad, he just won't stay unconscious to let Raye transform into Sailor Mars.
407-->'''Raye''': Oh shit, he's out cold! That's convenient; now I can transform! Mars Pow--\
408'''Chad''': j/k lol.\
409'''Raye''': Oh...oh hi...\
410'''Chad''': Don't worry, I'll protect you!\
411'''Raye''': Oh...great...\
412'''Chad''': ''(attacks the youma with his head, is thrown against the wall again)''\
413'''Raye''': Oh. He's out cold!\
414'''Chad''': Wow, man, I need to work on my headbutts.\
415'''Raye''': Oh… Uh, he's out… cold.\
416'''Chad''': Raye, avenge me!\
417'''Raye''': OKAY JUST STAY UNCONSCIOUS ''PLEASE!!''
418* ThatsWhatSheSaid: Episode 13/14. Wow, Serena really nailed him!
419* TheStinger: Similar to the ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'' examples, except these stingers mostly play music clips over the footage, rather than a clip from a movie.
420* TokenGoodTeammate: Queen Beryl in the alternate universe episode. Although the villains fail at villainy as much as the sailor scouts fail at heroism.
421* TrueLovesKiss: The final scene of ''Promise of the Lost Rose''.
422-->'''Darien''': I should at least kiss her goodbye.\
423'''[[spoiler:Raye]]''': NO!\
424'''Darien''': I think I should.\
425'''[[spoiler:Raye]]''': DON'T!\
426''(Darien kisses [[spoiler:Serena]], causing [[spoiler:the crystal to rebuild itself]]; [[spoiler:Raye]] screams)''\
427'''[[spoiler:Serena]]''': Wow, I'm feeling ''so'' much better!\
428''(pause)''\
429'''[[spoiler:Raye]]''': I'M GONNA STRANGLE HER!
430* TheUnintelligible: Titus in episode 9
431** Amy in her first few episodes if you don't have the volume cranked up
432** Artemis when he's being particularly drunk
433** Rini, the little girl who [[CousinOliver suddenly appeared]] in the movie. In the Mexican dub (where they adapted an abridged of ''Sailor Moon R'' series) she speaks normally, but will start blubbering when she's upset.
434* TruthInTelevision: After joking about the inconsistent name regarding that crystal everyone's suddenly obsessed with, Episode 19 ends with a compilation of dialogue snippets from the [=DiC=] dub, revealing that yes, they really didn't care.
435* {{Uncanceled}}: In 2010, Megami's channel was terminated by Toei, removing the entire series in the process. They started a new Youtube channel and uploaded a few more episodes before life stopped production. If they ever finish the last two episodes of ''Doom Tree'', that'll qualify for this too.
436* UnsoundEffect: Rose! (See also SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud above)
437** The fake crowd cheering and clapping in unison in Episode 4: "Cheer. Cheer. Cheer. Cheer."
438** Episode 26/27: "Shut your damn piehole, Serena! Shove."
439** Mina's "Giggle!"
440* UranusIsShowing: Episode 6.
441-->'''Queen Beryl''': And now we have Mercury to contend with. You know, there are nine planets so the longer we wait, the bigger that team gets. I mean, who's next, Uranus?\
442'''Jedite''': Hah, Uranus.\
443'''Queen Beryl''': Silence!
444* ValleyGirl: Mina
445* VocalEvolution: While many of the character's voices changed due to voice actors leaving and being replaced, Amy/Sailor Mercury plays this straight. When she started out, her voice was shy, quiet, and kind of cute. As the series progressed, she started having more of a squawk and spoke much more dramatically.
446* [[IDoNotOwn We Do Not Own]]: Originally averted, then played straight[[note]] Probably due to the original Website/YouTube account's suspension.[[/note]]
447* WhamLine: In the mexican dub, followed by the WhamShot of the Silence Glaive being lowered
448--> '''Queen Serenity''': Beryl, you idiot! You've doomed us all!
449-->'''Sailor Saturn''': Saturn Power Make Up!
450* WhoWritesThisCrap: All the actual dub dialog.
451-->'''Raye''': THAT SERENA ISN'T A SAILOR SCOUT, SHE'S A ''FAILURE'' SCOUT! ...OKAY, WHO THE F'''*honk*'''K WRITES THESE LINES?\
452'''Amy''': Don't blame it on the [=SMA=] crew!\
453'''Raye''': I BET THEY'RE LAUGHING AT MY MISERY!\
454'''Lita''': I know I am, yo!
455** If you listen to the bloopers, you'll occasionally hear Corinne and/or Eric have a terror-flavored one after Kris lets loose with Raye lines.
456* YouDoNotWantToKnow: Where Luna keeps all the sailor items.
457-->'''Amy''': [[AssShove How did you fit that up there?]] Do you want to get dysentery?\
458'''Luna''': Trust me, where ''I'm'' from, every cat can fit much bigger things than that.[[note]] ("that" being Amy's computer)[[/note]]
459* YouNeverDidThatForMe:
460-->'''Alan''': That girl has such passion. I want to lick her [[Film/TropicThunder Booty Sweat!]]\
461'''Anne''': You never like MY Booty Sweat anymore!
462** Another example came in the first season finale:
463--->'''Sailor Moon''': All you have to do is touch it.\
464''(Darien puts his hand on Sailor Moon's music box, which magically prompts him to perform a HeelFaceTurn)''\
465'''Queen Beryl''': You traitor! [[DoubleEntendre You never touched mine!]]
466* YourMom: Serena and Mina try pulling this on Amy, on two separate occasions, but their attempts end up sounding like {{Lame Comeback}}s.
467[[/folder]]
468
469[[folder:Sailor Moon R Abridged]]
470* BehindTheBlack: From Episode 11.
471-->'''Serena''' ''(after the other Sailor Scouts got kidnapped by Rubeus because of Rini)'': You stupid brat! ''*tries to slap Rini*''
472-->'''Darien''': Serena! ''*grabs her hand*''.....Not in front of the camera.
473-->''(cue a black screen as the sound of Serena slapping Rini is heard.)''
474* BewareTheSillyOnes: Mina is still ditzy and forgetful as usual, but she's still able to kick ass and giving murder threats while not dropping her cheerful demeanor. Rini states that she's the only Sailor Scout she's terrified of.
475* ButtMonkey: Nothing ever goes right for Rubeus. He's forced to work with the Spectre Sisters (despite his hatred for woman), cannot get the respect of his fellow Black Moon members at all and he's the only one that gets affected by [[TheLoad Sailor Mercury]]'s attacks. He also dies in a very pathetic way, trying to destroy his ship in order to kill the Sailor Scouts, only for the collapsing debris to fall on him.
476* CallBack: There are a few references to the first season, like Mina's "Revlon Wind" and Raye trying to use fire attacks in an enclosed space again.
477* CatchphraseInsult: The Black Moon Clan has the tendency to use "pizza", "meatball" or "ravioli" as insults. That's because Wiseman manipulated them into thinking Neo-Queen Serenity tried to poison them with Italian food (see DisproportionateRetribution below).
478* ChubbyChaser: The reason of Prince Diamond's crush on Sailor Moon.
479* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: When Mina wonders what Raye does with red-colored cotton, Artemis says [[BadPeopleAbuseAnimals she uses it for her stuffed toys in order to torture them in a more realistic way]]. Mina and Lita shrug it off, but at the end of the episode turns out he's right. He's also the one who gives Serena the idea to purify the Spectre Sisters.
480* CutenessProximity: Raye absolutely adores Rini and likes to dote on her. She gets really excited when Rini does something sociopathic and manipulative.
481* DisproportionateRetribution: Turns out Wiseman's reason to manipulate the Black Moon Clan and attack Earth was because Neo-Queen Serenity gave Italian food to the prisoners of Nemesis and he was allergic to said food.
482-->'''Wiseman''': Do you have any idea how hard it was to see everyone enjoying that feast while I swelled up just for eating Hawaiian pizza?! That's why my face looks like a skull! If I can't enjoy that food, nobody else will!
483* DoesNotLikeMen: PlayedForLaughs. Prizma has a grudge against men in general but Avery points out she's just embittered that Sapphire broke up with her in the past.
484* EnfantTerrible: Rini.
485* EvenEvilHasStandards: Sapphire is repulsed by Diamond lusting over Sailor Moon. Not because of his fetish for fat girls, but because she's underage.
486* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Rini travelled to the past in order to meet her mother as Sailor Moon. Needless to say, she's quite disappointed to see Serena is a fat, gluttonous crybaby and lets herself to be kidnapped in various occasions to see her mother in action.
487* {{Foreshadowing}}:
488** In an early episode, Prizma tells Avery that her ex-boyfriend has a "sexy, alluring voice". 5 episodes later it's revealed her ex is Sapphire, who's TheUnintelligible.
489** Also, in Episode 5, Lita says she wants a new technique when she summons a dragon made of lightning, but Amy says it isn't realistic. At the end of the series she gets the poweup she wanted.
490** After Sapphire leaves to convince Diamond about Wiseman's true colors, the Spectre Sisters try to make him stay so he won't be killed by Wiseman, but in the end Prizma gives up, stating that "there's nothing else we can do now". Sure enough, that episode is their last appearance.
491* GroundedForever: The series ends with Rini returning to the future and Neo Queen Serenity grounds her for life.
492* HeManWomanHater: Rubeus does not like women and thinks they're all moody and useless. That's the reason why he abuses the Spectre Sisters so much.

494-->'''[[NoIndoorVoice Raye]]''': "IT'S SO QUIET WHEN SERENA ISN'T AROUND!"
495** In Episode 10 Prizma tells Avery that she doesn't like Emerald because she's a "green-haired bitch".

498* ImStandingRightHere: From Episode 15
499-->'''Emerald''' ''(after being ordered by Diamond to bring Sailor Moon to him)'': If my finger slips and she dies, I'll bring her corpse. And then Prince Diamond will love only me!
500-->'''Sapphire''': You know I can hear you.
501-->'''Emerald''': N-no, you can't!
502-->'''Sapphire''': [[TheUnintelligible Nyehnyehnyehnyeh.]]
503* IrrationalHatred: Sailor Pluto has this towards Raye.
504* NotCompletelyUseless: Sailor Mercury is useless as usual during fights, but later episodes show she's very good at gaslighting people, such as when she manipulates Bertie to turn to the side of good.
505* LineOfSightName: How Rini comes up with her "Black Lady" name after being aged-up magically by Wiseman.
506-->'''Black Lady''': I am the Guardian of Planet Nemesis. And my name is....''(*thinking* Damn, I guess I didn't think this through. Alright, my name is Serena Small Lady Tsukino, therefore my evil name will be....)'' BLACK LADY!
507-->'''Sailor Scouts''': That's lame!
508* MakingLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: In Episode 17, it's implied Prizma rapes the gravely injured Sapphire. Bertie is not amused, since they're using her bed.
509* MoreThanMindControl: When Rini becomes Black Lady and starts breaking havoc, everyone thinks it's because Rini has been brainwashed by Wiseman. As Serena finds out in the final episode, she was conscious all along, [[SkewedPriorities she just went along with Wiseman's plans in order to see her mother in action]].
510* OutOfFocus: Luna and Artemis are not so relevant anymore and they're horribly aware of it.
511* PetTheDog: Raye is still a jerkass, but she's much nicer towards Rini. In Episode 9 she also helps Catzi to accept her inner sadistic side....by convincing her to become a satanist.
512-->'''Raye''': To praise a god...that won't allow you to embrace your inner desires....that won't allow you to suffer or making others suffer....it's total BULLSHIT! But you know who doesn't discriminate? OUR LORD....SATAN!
513* RedemptionEqualsDeath: Averted when Sapphire dies thanks to Wiseman's manipulations.
514-->'''Catzi''': He's totally burning in Hell right now.
515** Also after Prince Diamond dies in Serena's arms after protecting her from Wiseman, she says that dying doesn't redeem him and he's still a filthy rapist.
516* RunningGag: Many of them including, but not limited to:
517** Still more fat jokes for poor Serena.
518** Raye still wants to sacrifice people to Satan. And she's always gushing over how sociopathic Rini is.
519** Amy being bullied by the other Sailor Scouts for being useless.
520** Rini's letting herself be kidnapped on purpose to see Sailor Moon in action.

530-->'''Molly''': ....It was him or necrophilia.
531* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: When Amy gets brainwashed by the MonsterOfTheWeek, she sees illusions of her friends ridiculing her, including a smarter Mina who berates her for not knowing about binary codes. She gets off the mind control inmediately.
532-->'''Monster''': How were you able to see past my illusions?!
533-->'''Sailor Mercury''': Venus, spell "binary".
534-->'''Sailor Venus''': B-I-N-A-Bow-chicka-bow-wow! ...Binary.
535-->'''Monster''': Oh.
536* TheUnintelligible:
537** Rini starts blubbering whenever she's upset, possibly a CallBack to her appearance in the movie.
538** Sapphire can only say "Nyeh nyeh" but for some reason everyone can understand him and according to Prizma, he's quite eloquent. Strangely, he's able to speak normally when he's being serious.
539* WhoNamesTheirKidDude: Serena and Darien's reaction upon fiding out that Rini's second name is Small Lady.
540* WoundedGazelleGambit: Rini abuses this whenever the Sailor Scouts try to ask her where she comes from.
541* YouMonster: From Episode 17
542-->'''Serena''' ''(after being attacked by Black Lady)'': Stop this tantrum and I'll give you half of my pizza!
543-->'''Black Lady''': I want all the pizza and for you to become vegetarian.
544-->'''Serena''': You monster!
