Ami! Now Usagi isn't alone any more.

It was hilarious with Mamoru asking if Luna was talking; Usagi and Luna freaked out and ran away.

Luna thinking Ami was the monster lol and Usagi not knowing about gravity.

Yeah Usagi is such an idiot xD they don't do comedy like this these days :'(

Finally they introduce a new permanent character, I was getting tired of the monster of the week routine.

Yay for a new sailor soldier.
Does that mean that if mercury was not in this episode then Usagi would have lost since Tuxedo Mask is nowhere to be found? He was probably hiding on the roof though...

Yay! Sailor Mercury!
I like the start, about how Japanese parents pressure their children to be the best at everything. Then Queen Beryl's question "What do they do after that?" "I don't know." Nice.

Though not incredibly deep, the social commentary is interesting.

Ah! Sailor Mercury is adorable! Man, she a genius, humble and sweet... Haha, I like her much better than Sailor Moon. I hate that I share the same astrological sign as Usagi xD

Lol, we finally see Serena's trademark cartoon books ^_^

Finally we get to see Sailor Mercury. She's a great role model for studying! Wonder why she transferred to Serena's school when it's clear that her previous school had better education.

Just remember that Serena is the bottom one on the class (based on what she said to her mother). I don't think she's in a bad school, I think it's just that she isn't the best student in the world.
Please don't feed the trolls!
In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student

I'm sure Serena's school isn't bad but judging by the responses of Molly and the other students, the school Amy transferred in from was much higher level in terms of education.

So I don't get why Amy would transfer from a better school (full of brainy people) when she clearly would obviously be better off where she was. I suppose it's the general "my parents are moving so I have to transfer" scenario.

So much goodness in this ep.
The sequence at the start actualy surprised me, they were plainly speaking of a social problem, criticising parents who demanded too much of their children not only in Queen Beryl and Jadeite sequence, but in the zombie-students scene too.
QB: "And after that, what do they do?"
J: "I'm not sure yet."
QB: I'll leave this up to you."

Luna calling someone through game terminal of Sailor V - nice. Another easter egg from SM prototype.

I'm loving Sailor Mercury. Ami is so beautiful, humble and sweet, not mentioning smarts. Can't wait to meet Sailor Mars. Usagi might be an (adorable) idiot, but she has a great intuition, which tells her, she will have tough time keeping up with Ami and other Sailor Guardians :D

It's funny how the monster was again related to the theme of ep, being a testing monster, which is, of course, too tought for Usagi to beat, as her other tests)

A new ally has been added to the party! It would have been nice if Mercury had got her own theme during transformation, but at least it didn't take over 30 seconds like Moon's usually does.

It's a little dumb that Luna didn't suspect Mizuno Ami to be a sailor scout sooner. They knew her real name, which sounded similar to Usagi's, an besides, every Youma has been disguised as an adult so far.

Decent episode. Things started out slow and unexciting but things got interesting in the second half, so the episode was okay as a whole. It also had several funny bits.

Sailor Mercury is here! Let's see if this brings the freshness I felt the series needed, this introduction episode was solid.

> All I'm good for is studying
> Makes the top high score at the arcade in her first try

Floppy disks tho, that's some ancient stuff.

Luna is so adorable. She jumped like a ninja cat onto Ami's shoulder but then immediately forgot what she was doing and snuggled her. Introduction of my favorite character from when I was a kid, Sailor Mercury. I'm pretty sure she's still going to be my favorite.

Floppy disks, arcades, good old early 90s.

Mercury didn't react much to a talking cat. I guess the monster didn't give her much time.

So there's now a second guardian, should make things more interesting.

Finally some variety! All these "monster of the week" style formulaic episodes were getting pretty tedious. I also like how Ami/Mercury is pretty much the opposite of the hyperactive, clumsy, airheaded dunce Usagi, so she'll be a good contrast to her.
