Reviews Literature / Sailor Nothing

Its Kind Of Silly.

Sailor nothing is... meh!

To be honest, there is nothing new, amusing or even all that well thought about the Fanfic. It can be entertainment, mind you, but its suffers horrible by the Hyper Backlash of old fans that keep praising it as the ultimate deconstruction of the Magical Girl Genre.

Its not a deconstruction.

Whathever it can be said about the work, a deconstruction is not one of them. Its brutal, is grim, its sadistic, extremely jaded but that doesn't make it a Deconstruction, an error that many people keep pointing over and over again. The protagonist suffer for the sake of suffering, the twist ending was badly done, the powers have massive plotholes, rely to much in Murphy law to create drama and the idea of her suffering migrane by detecting the Demons even after abandoning her powers, while original it has nothing to do with the Magical Genre per se; the battle are not very well thought and the idea of making the "good guys" side as equal monsters was so and so.

Also, there is also rape and heavy description for a suicidal attempt.

This is a work from the Generation X. From the era where "cynicism" (which has absolutely nothing to do with actually cynicism) reigned supreme: World Of Darkness, Warhammer 40k, Dark Cyperpunk, Spawn and Ninety Anti-heroe, Fight Club, the birth of the Emo movement, of the Apocalypse and the War of Terror. It was fair for its day and for what I see, very well done to catter such desires.

For this generation, this culture and this era.. its a Narmtastic, silly, "extreme edgier", cliche ridden work. It was never meant to become a work to trascend time or really a work to be considered anything else but a Fanfic with original characters.

Its not a bashing review or simply a boil of complaints for complain sake.

But don't let the review and gushing of fans paint you a Master Piece. Go with an open mind and a desire to see and old time fic, a window of a previous generation and the type of culture it spawned.

You will not be severely dissapointed as long you don't let your expectatives go away from a normal Recommendation in the Sailor Moon page instead of the quintessential Deconstruction this very page try to paint.
