Movie: Sailor Moon S

English Name: Hearts in Ice
Description on the back:
As Usagi and her friends enjoy Christmas vacation, an unusual snow storm hits the town. When the Sailor Soldiers find it's source, they discover the Snow Queen, Kaguya, who wants to freeze the earth! Meanwhile, Luna falls in love with a kindhearted young astronomer whose girlfriend is an astronaut on an upcoming space shuttle mission. Can a cat find true love with a human? Sailor Moon has to defeat Snow Kaguya and her ice maiden minions to save the Earth, her loved ones and the young lovers, but what happens when even Super Sailor Moon cannot defeat her?! All hope now rests upon the Legendary Ultimate Power!

My thoughts:
Though not my favorite Sailor Moon movie, Sailor Moon S has its moments. Fans of the outer senshi will be pleased to see Sailor Pluto, Uranus and Neptune join the inner senshi in the battle, and fans of Luna will be overjoyed. The whole movie revolves around Luna, who falls in love with a human (poor Artemis!), which seems a bit strange to me since she's not only a cat, but has a daughter in the future. Nevertheless, the love story is sweet, and it's really neat to see Luna transformed into a human by Sailor Moon at the end of the story. Another must have movie!
