A wonderful conclusion to a wonderful series

Sailor Moon Sailor Stars is the final season to one of the most successful anime ever, Sailor Moon.

The first part of the series finishes off the SuperS series(this 7-episode part was wonderful). The rest of the series deals with Sailor Galaxia. We are also introduced to the Sailor Starlights.

This season is a good conclusion, and in the end we learn about Chaos(evil energy) and Cosmos(good energy)

However, I feel that the series shouldn't have focused so much on the starlights and their gender-changing wasn't necessary.

Plot:8/10 Characters:7/10 Screenplay:8/10 Music:9/10 Presentation:8/10 Action:7/10 OVERALL:8/10

The verdict? If you're a Sailor Moon fan and have watched the previous seasons: WATCH THIS SEASON!!!! If you're NOT a Sailor Moon fan, you should ultimately watch this season, but start off with the earlier ones first.
