Sailor Moon S - The Love War (Vol. 2, TV Version) [VHS]

Amazon.com Japanimation goes girl crazy in this pastel-propelled series about a lovesick middle-schooler, Serena, whose alter ego, Sailor Moon, aims to triumph over evil in the name of true love. Volume Two comprises three Eros-charged episodes from the third season of the show. First up is "Swept Off Her Feet," wherein a doe-eyed study buddy unwittingly falls for a villain intent on robbing her of her pure-heart crystal. Next comes "Blinded by Love's Light," in which the shaggy- haired Melvin, who sports a couple of psychedelic curlicues for eyes, enters a True Affection contest only to be hoodwinked into having his pure heart harvested by the heart snatchers. For a finale, "Lita Borrows Trouble" finds the evil heart snatcher Scar zeroing on the title character's much-coveted crystal. Constants in this series, other than the shrill-voiced Miss Moon, are hotshot high schoolers Amara and Michelle, a couple of best friends who, considering Amara's cropped haircut amid a sea of swirling ponytails, seem more like a couple. Together, they're heart-stealing schemers, but of a different order. For them, the goal is culling three crystals--that way, we discover way into the "Lita" episode, peace will prevail in their heart-shaped universe. Sailor Moon doesn't glide along without ripples; the plots are plunked down about three-quarters of the way into each episode, often unintelligibly, but the series is more about girlie good fun than strong stories. For teenage girls fond of Japanimation, the gender-specific nature makes this series a gem. The edited version (that plays on the Cartoon Network) is for ages 5 to 12, the uncut version is rated for teenagers for violence, innuendo, and brief nudity. --Tammy La Gorce
