Angry Letters 2
~*~*~*~
From: Queen Beryl
To: The animators of Sailor Moon, and the people at DiC
I would like to complain about my hair. When Takeuchi Naoko-san
told us
that we were going to be animated, I'd had great hopes for my
future. I
was promised hair like the golden sun, and that I would defeat the
senshi. Of course, I find myself with the most awful red hair. I
don't
mind red hair. But if you were going to give me red hair, could it
have
at least been a -nice- colour of red? And then there was the bit
about
the senshi defeating me. How undignified is that? Having a rose
stabbed into ones heart and then having their body taken over by an
evil
queen and having -green- hair as a result is the height of
indignity.
And then, we were all betrayed when DiC took over. We got our voices
butchered, each episode butchered, and the plot so screwed up it
wasn't
funny. Do you want to know why my minions were -really- losing?
Because of that damned annoying voice that they gave 'Amy'! And they
were too busy cackling over all these Japanese girls with American
names. If you had left them with their -real- names and not given
them
high-pitched 'my-panties-are-giving-me-a-wedgie-that-kills' voices,
maybe this time I could have won. Now, re-dub the entire show! Give
them realistic human voices! Or I'll drain your energy, or something
equally cheesy that inevitably involves me being defeated by the
senshi
for doing.
-Queen Beryl
P.S. While you're at redubbing, could you please fix the colour of my
hair?

Dear Sir,
I wish to throw my support behind Ms. Beryl 100%. I think that
Kodansha should give rights to translation for video release to
another company, say Viz, or (to satisfy my friend Jeff) ADV. Any
company that'll put the original music and eyecatches back, as well as
restoring all the original footage. (compressing two episodes into one
kind of reduced "Day of Destiny" to incomprehensibility.) However, I
think the hair is rather nice.
Sincerely,
-Koban "the Ninja Kat" Hiryuuno
PS. No, that is not my real name, but my real name is high-security,
ultra-sensitive information.
