This 4 -hour video set is an excellent introduction to the Sailor Moon series. Serena (Sailor Moon) and the other Sailor Scouts live as ordinary schoolgirls, apparently unaware of their magical powers. We learn that after their last battle with the Negaforce, they've been shocked into amnesia. When evil threatens, they must re-awaken to their powers and responsibilities in order to save the world. As Sailor Venus exclaims, "I feel the strong urge to do something other than run around in circles!" The architects of this new threat are the attractive, green-skinned Allen and Anne. This cool couple is bent on consuming the life force of Earth's teenagers to fuel their jaded passions. With a plethora of minions, ranging from a rather racy minotaur to multitentacled monsters, this dissolute duo is consistently thwarted by the Sailor Scouts. The plot is simplistic; it is the world Sailor Moon inhabits that makes this series so charming and popular with kids (mostly girls) age 6 and up. It is a place where girls take the forefront and the guys are second bananas. You would expect Serena, as the leader of the Scouts, to be a strong and tough-minded commander, not a boy-crazy ditz; however, she's lazy, crazy, and somewhat superficial. But the other Scouts are ultimately subordinate to her because she has the most important quality for the fight against evil--a kind and generous heart. In the end, it is not strategy or power that preserves this corny world, but love. --Clarke Fletcher

 Sailor Moon- The Doom Tree Series January 4, 2000
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
The Doom Tree Series is something you have to watch. It shows that after Darien was revived from the Imperium Crystal, a part of him has escaped. That part was when he was Tuxedo Mask, and that part turned into Moonlight Knight. It's pretty annoying when Serena tries very hard to give Darien his memories back. She goes past stupid to revive his love for her. Anyways, I do not want to say everything about it. The last thing I watched was about the 4 sisters which I can see is not out dubbed. I think the Doom Tree Series is for people who love to see Serena and Darien alot. This is also a great time to watch something before Reeny came. This was made for those people who love to watch Serena and Darien together! Bye!
 For Dic Dubbing, these episodes were INCREDIBLE. June 16, 2000

If you have seen ANY of the dubbed Sailormoon or Sailormoon R epeisodes, then you will know what I mean when I say that Dic cannot DUB. But, I throughly enjoyed the Doom Tree Series.. ESPECIALLY the last two episodes of it. They're superb. Being a fan of Serena's (Sailormoon's) and Darian's (Tuxedo Mask's) relationship, I thought this series was a turning point for their relationship. I especially found it incredibally sad when Darian broke up with Serena for her own good. I haven't purchased the boxed set of the Doom Tree Series, but I did tape all of the episodes when they aired on Cartoon Network. If you are a Sailormoon fan, or would like to become one, I HIGHLY reccomend this set. It's also good for a collectible. I hope this review helps you in your decision. Have a nice day^-^
These Episodes are Great! November 8, 1999

I say buy it, it's difinately worth it...you get to see how Serena makes a fool out of herself trying to get Darien to remember her. I love Alan's Flute!
Allen and Anne rock!! October 17, 1999

If you are a true moonie fan (Who doesn't mind the butchered DIC episodes) you should get this one! It has everything! Romance, Adventure, Mystery, Comedy, The arts (Snow White and the seven dwarfs), and of course, the best of all, ANIME!!! If you like anime, BUY it!!!!
