Day 1 - Bandai Myu
Let’s celebrate @sera-myu-week by watching the musical that started it all!
1993 Summer - Spin-off - The Dark Kingdom Resurrection Chapter
You can also download this musical along with all 25 recorded Bandai Musicals at Seaofserenity.net.
This musical acts as an alternate sequel to the first season of the original 1990′s anime. This is the show that started it all debuting actors and actresses who would go on to be involved in the Bandai produced Sailor Moon musicals for many years. This show also features the only BanMyu which includes Luna and Artemis in the cast.
This musical is the first Sera Myu show to debut in 1993. It is also the first musical for Anza Ohyama as Sailor Moon, as well as the popular first Sailor Mercury actress, Ayako Morino. This is the show that starts it all and many of the cast go one to be involved in later Bandai produced Sailor moon musicals. This musical acts as a direct sequel to the first season of the original anime, being the only musical to directly relate to the anime series and have direct references to it. This is also the only musical where Luna and Artemis were characters in the story. Neither of the cats are cast in a Sailor Moon musical until 25 years later with the Nogizaka 46 x Sailor Moon musical project, which has Luna in the form of a puppet.
It's kaiteiban (revision) was unfortunately never released on VHS or DVD, so this is the only version of the musical that is available to watch.
