After nearly a year, as a New Year's present, the S episodes are (mostly) available!
I'm still missing the last four due to the rarity of the tape The Awakening, but I'll keep hunting for it and update when it's completed.
Enjoy!

"A Day in the Life of Yadoking"
A cute little short about a day in the life of the Yadoking from the second movie. It's not *great* or anything, but there are worse ways to spend three minutes.

I love it when the show plays around with different art styles like this.

I'm cracking up it's the Sailor Moon DIC dub font.
Dilberitos (1999-2003): A line of licensed vegan microwave burritos tied-in with the comic strip "Dilbert". Available in Mexican, Indian, Barbecue, and Garlic & Herb. Noted for it's poor taste and food engineering that packed all 23 essential vitamins and minerals into each one

Seeing Rei and Mako alongside Mercury and Venus is so strange (in a fun way). I can't think of any other artwork of the girls where half of them are transformed and the other half aren't. (Also, we need more art of Moon and Pluto together!) #SailorMoon

Although the actual Blu-ray release is lackluster, I’m glad Mahou no Mako-chan got an HD remaster.

I forget just how weird it is that Mako-chan has a pet bear.

It’s funny how different Sister Jill’s headquarters looks like in the last episode. I’m assuming they wanted something more spectacular for the final battle.

Takeshi's way of talking and gestures here are a kind of homage to Masanori Hata (aka Mutsugorou), a Steve Irwin-type zoologist who would do these sorts of things to put wild animals at ease.

My roommate is a teacher and has reported that ICE has been hanging around Septa stops and depots in the interest of abducting kids on their way home because they aren’t allowed to enter schools. They claimed to be part of a “Septa Strike Force” which does not exist. Boost if you can.
