For this edition of Saturday Anime Night, the people demanded more Sailor Moon, and so, we’re continuing on, with episodes 7 through 12 of the 1992 series, the definitive magical-girl anime. This is the completely unabridged, unexpurgated, uncensored, Japanese version of the show, including everything that the English dub butchered, altered, and/or cut, which is quite a bit. Tonight’s episodes see the downfall of Jadeite and the beginning of the Nephrite arc. After that is French slapstick fairy-tale cartoon The King and the Mockingbird (1952/1980), concerning a bird that uses all of his wits to end the reign of terror of a tyrannical king. It originally released in incomplete form in 1952, and, in that form, was a major influence on the work of Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. Director Paul Grimault eventually completed it, and the whole film was released in 1980; this is by far his best-known work, and his only feature. It is often considered the best animated French film of all time, so let’s give it a whirl.

We’ll start at 9PM EST on Hextube, right here: https://live.hexbear.net/c/movies
