My Animation Era

The live-action version of "Sailor Moon" has received widespread attention and rave reviews since it was broadcast on Jiangchuan Satellite TV's evening prime time slot.

Among them, the scene about "Mercury turning black" caused thousands of fans of the original animation to exclaim.

Dark Power

Make Up! (Transformation)

When everyone saw the dark Mercury that was finally born after being eroded by Queen Medalia's dark power, their eyes couldn't help but shine.

Oh yo yo!

It's incredible, this sweet girl transformed into a cold and cold lady, and what she looks like after the transformation, so cool and beautiful!

The appearance was immediately improved.

If normal Mercury's appearance is rated at 7 points, and after transforming into Sailor Mercury, it can be rated at 8 points, then the appearance of Darkened Mercury must be rated at 9 points or even higher.

All of a sudden...

Mercury, who originally didn't have many fans in the "Sailor Moon" five-person group, even less than Venus, relied on the dark plot of these few episodes of the live-action drama to attract countless fans at once.

Popularity climbed to the top.

As the plot progresses, the number of darkened Mercury's appearances increases, and almost the entire Internet is discussing Mercury and her darkened appearance.

On the other hand, the first heroine, Xiaotu, has no sense of presence anymore.

However, the first heroine is the first heroine after all. Even if her popularity is temporarily sluggish and she is overshadowed by Mercury, she can quickly regain her place.

That's right!

Princess Serenity has awakened!

After Xiao Wei blocked the knife for him and was extremely sad, Xiaotu awakened the power of the moon princess Serenity in her previous life and saved Xiao Wei.

But there is one pity.

Bunny only awakened her ability as Moon Princess Serenity, and did not awaken the memory of her previous life.

Therefore, Xiaotu doesn't know why the Earth and Moon Kingdoms were destroyed, and what she and Xiaowei experienced in their previous lives.

Actually seeing this...

Most viewers have discovered that the plot direction of the live-action version seems to be no longer in line with the animation and comics.

So far, neither the blackening of Mercury nor the awakening of Serenity seems to have appeared in the original work.

Just when everyone was full of doubts and guessed how the plot would develop in the future, a new "branch" appeared.

Queen Belial actually sent a clone to Little Rabbit's class to bully Little Rabbit, throw dirty water on Little Rabbit, wrongly accuse her, etc.

at the same time.

Xiaowei returns to Jiangchuan, recognizes the reality and begins to fall in love with Xiaotu. And Sally, Venus's condition deteriorated rapidly...

Finally the finale has come!

When everyone learned that the reason why Queen Belial planned so many conspiracies was because she loved the Prince of Earth and was jealous of the love between Mamoru and Usagi, their expressions were all messy.

"No, aunt, you..."

"Why does Queen Beria still have this special hobby of old cows eating young grass? I wonder if she is old enough to be Xiaowei's mother?"

"Being a grandma is enough!"

"Don't be embarrassed! Counting the prince of the earth in his previous life, he and Xiaowei are actually about the same age. Why are we the old cows eating the young grass?"

"That's right... true love doesn't distinguish between age, distance, good and evil! Come on, the aunt with thick eyeshadow makeup can't lose to that little girl!"

"I wish lovers will get married eventually!"

puff!

Seeing everyone's reaction to the fact that Queen Belia likes Xiao Wei in the comment section of the video, I have to say that Gu Miao was really amused.

Is everyone so naughty?

Although it can be seen that everyone is just joking and does not really support Queen Belial's pursuit of Mamoru, there is one thing that may disappoint everyone.

The love between earth and moon cannot be broken up!

The little girl everyone talks about, that is, Xiaotu, is not a war scumbag, the "weak" crybaby in animations and comics.

This is the real-life version!

A real-life version of Bunny...

Gu Miao covered her face. If he remembered correctly, after transforming into Princess Serenity, Xiaotu seemed to be the most powerful and buggy character in the entire show.

What Queen Belial?

If you can, don't take Wei as a hostage, come out and challenge Solo! I must slap you in the face and pull your hair out to make you understand the amazing fighting power of the Moon Princess.

Princess Serenity, YYDS!

As the only person who defeats the whole show and is also the final BOSS, after Xiaotu awakened as Princess Serenity, not only did her appearance increase steadily, but her combat power also soared exponentially.

I believe at that time...

Everyone will be shocked when they see the scene where Princess Serenity is destroyed, right?

Ridicule is ridicule.

Gu Miao is very satisfied with the broadcast results of the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" so far on television and online platforms.

In terms of TV ratings, although it failed to break through ten points, it was still stable at above nine points, locking the title of the best TV series ratings champion in the second half of the year in advance.

Not just domestically.

The live-action version of "Sailor Moon" has also been broadcast on many foreign TV stations such as Neon TBS and FOX in North America, and the results have been very impressive.

Don't ask, why are so many foreign TV stations, including foreign audiences, favoring such a Chinese TV series?

Just ask...

You simply don’t understand the amazing influence of the IP “Sailor Moon” abroad.

So far.

For many foreign fans, the only impression they have of Wanbao Animation is the "Sailor Moon" animation.

Animation works such as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", "Pig Man" and "Racing the Line" may be slightly famous in several East Asian countries.

But in Europe, America, Africa, South America, Central Asia and other regions, few people know and have seen these animations.

Therefore, the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" is very popular abroad. Gu Miao and all the employees of Wanbao Animation think this is normal.

Too normal.

After all, in the name of "Sailor Moon", even if the filming is bad and the plot is a piece of shit, there is no need to worry about no audience watching.

Apart from the ratings...

On the online platform, the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" has also achieved quite good results.

The cumulative broadcast volume has exceeded 500 million. Although the total broadcast episodes have reached 42 episodes, which does not sound high, the average ratings of a single episode have also exceeded 10 million.

A single episode has 10 million views!

For a live-action film and television drama that does not focus on "online exclusive broadcast", this number of views is already very high.

If you don’t believe it, take a look at the Wanbao (Neon) branch next door. The recently released new animation "The Three Sisters of the Nan Family" was launched on Wanbao Video for a week, and the first episode only had 3 million views.

Three million!

For a film that cost tens of millions to produce and is the second TV animation launched by the Wanbao (Neon) division after the hit animation "Sailor Moon", is this number of views justified?

"This is the first episode! The first episode!"

Setoguchi argued hard: "What's more, TV animation is not an online animation, so wouldn't it be normal for it to be less played?"
