I rather like the lyrics, myself. "We don't need boys, we protect ourselves!" is exactly the kind of message I would've liked to see in a theme song when I was younger, and I still appreciate it today. The song itself is just kinda okay to me, but the fact it's attached to Sailor Moon gives it like a +100 for immediately making me perk up when I hear it, because of the attached nostalgia.

Which is why I really hope you're right about Moonlight Densetsu, because I had no particular love for the song except "Sailor Moon opening, yay!" in the same manner, but I'm pretty sure if they do break it out at some dramatic part I will start bawling like a baby.

(And re: other comments - I liked the Stars opening better than both, musically speaking. :D)

I'm one of the Stars people! /high-five

The "we don't need boys" lyric actually drives my translation friend nuts because the original wording is more "we're not fragile beings who need outside protection" (no gendered language). It was probably too wordy to manage anything else, but it's the most common complaint I've seen from people, including her. Now I think of it every time the line flashes by.

Hmm, well either way I like the sentiment that they're tough enough that they can stick up for themselves just fine. It's something young girls didn't get often enough when I was a kid, and I get the impression that's still the case. =)

Hmm, really? There's still a long way to go in regards to empowering girls, but I figured series like the Hunger Games were giving younger fans more to work with nowadays. A new Sailor Moon is always a nice bonus, though c: Most of my friends watching are career women/dual degree grad students in their twenties or higher, but hopefully a lot of new kids are also able to see it with such accessible licensing. I missed the first wave back in the day because I didn't have cable.

I think SMC is a nostalgia show with no intent to capture younger fans, so even in Japan it would mostly be women in their 20's watching it.

You saying that reminded me of some staff comments I saw back when the show first premiered that mentioned older women, but I thought I was reading too much into it. Nice to know that wasn't the case after all.
