But then wouldn't SMC just be an almost exact copy of the original anime? I honestly don't understand why some people want Crystal to be like the old anime. The 90s anime was clearly directed for a younger audience. The feeling I get with Crystal is they know their audience is older now (in their 20s and 30s) and probably want to move away from the silly tone the 90s anime had which I think is great.

What does being an adult have to do with humor though? Honestly the episode where Minako purposely tries to get her heart crystal stolen is still one of my favorites because of how funny it is. I am a grown adult and I still love Usagi's silly faces.

Not OP but I am fine with a more mature style and it being different then the original anime, it is more that is very little to no character acting in the animation. And I'm not talking about the extreme gags, there isn't even much subtle stuff going on to be able to tell how the characters are feeling. The voice actors are giving all the emotion in the performance, not the animation.

I'm not saying that it should be 'super duper srs' and devoid of humor. Just that the original anime was really campy compared to this one. I'm a fan of the original too and the silliness was part of its charm. But I also don't see the point in remaking that version of it with fixing the few changes the 90s anime made with the manga. I already saw and enjoyed that anime and I'm looking forward to the direction Crystal is going.

I actually liked Usagi's portrayal in Crystal because she felt more relate-able and real. But I admit that was mostly due to dialogue and performance and less to do with the animation. So, I agree that the style isn't showcasing as much as it could be. But it's also not that big of a concern for me either. Different personal preferences, I suppose.
