Watch Season 3 of ‘Sailor Moon Crystal’ on Hulu and Viz
Sailor Moon Crystal‘s third season began yesterday. Airing as a subtitled simulcast on Hulu and Viz, this season follows the manga’s “Mugen – Infinity” story arc also known as the Death Busters arc. Right out of the gate, viewers will notice that the look of the animation differs slightly from the first two seasons, most likely because of fan feedback. The new characters and transformation sequences are what I would call “classic” and less “stylized.”
The first episode, entitled “Infinity 1- Premonition” (which, incidentally, is the same title as the corresponding manga chapter), also gives us our first viewing of the new opening and closing themes. The opening theme, “New Moon ni Ai Shite” (“Fall in Love with the New Moon”), will be performed by Etsuko Yakushimaru. The first of the ending themes (there are reported to be three in total) is “Eternal Eternity” sung by the actors for Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus, Sayaka Ohara and Junko Minagawa.
New episodes of Sailor Moon Crystal will be simulcast every Monday at 7: 35 AM Pacific.
