Sailor Moon in Italy
From WikiMoon
Sailor Moon in Italy refers to the Italian adaptation of Sailor Moon. This included a dubbed version of the anime, translated versions of the manga and anime comics, and monthly magazines about Sailor Moon which were published by Diamond.
The magazines included Sailor Moon, which contained summaries of the episodes, games, and fan mail; and Gioca con Sailor Moon (Play with Sailor Moon) and Le avventure di Sailor Moon (The Adventure of Sailor Moon), which contained summaries of certain episodes of the anime, though with some poetic license.
Italy's Backstage Licensing and Toei signed an exclusive deal to resurrect Sailor Moon in the Italian market in 2010. Backstage is now managing the TV, publishing, merchandising, and theatrical release rights of the franchise.

Anime
The anime was first aired 1995 by Mediaset. Episodes of the anime were aired every day from Monday to Saturday. The first and second seasons were part of the afternoon-long children's program Bim Bum Bam on Canale 5, but the later seasons were aired in the evening as part of the children's program Game Boat on Rete 4. After the end of the Sailor Moon Sailor Stars season, some of the previous seasons were re-aired, but episodes were skipped or shown out of order.
Mediaset also dubbed the movies, but called them special episodes of Sailor Moon S (the first and second movies) and Sailor Moon SuperS (the third movie).
The broadcast of the last movie was followed by the other special episodes:
- Il Primo Amore di Amy (Amy's First Love)
- La Storia di Bunny (Bunny's Story)
- Nemici Insidiosi (Insidious Enemies)
- Il Ritorno del Vampiro (Vampire's Return)
- Le Guerriere Sailor Unite per la Libertà (The Sailor Soldiers Joined for Freedom)
The anime comics were translated and published by Marvel Manga (now Planet Manga) in 30 volumes.
On August 23, 2010, the anime began airing on Italian television once more.

Sailor Moon Italian Opening Songs
The theme songs were original Italian songs and changed every season. They were sung by Cristina D'Avena, a famous Italian singer. Each opening song had the title of the corresponding season. The following list shows the original title of every season with the title of its Italian song:
- Sailor Moon: "Sailor Moon"
- Sailor Moon R: "Sailor Moon, la Luna Splende" (Sailor Moon, the Moon Shines)
- Sailor Moon S: "Sailor Moon e il Cristallo del Cuore" (Sailor Moon and the Heart Crystal)
- Sailor Moon SuperS: "Sailor Moon e il Mistero dei Sogni" (Sailor Moon and the Mystery of Dreams)
- Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: "Petali di Stelle per Sailor Moon" (Petals of Stars for Sailor Moon)
Abridged versions of the Italian songs accompained the opening sequence of each episode, which were a combination of scenes from the season and parts of the original opening from that season. As there were no ending themes in the Italian dub, at the end of the episode the same video was shown, but with the addition of sliding subtitiles.
A collection of all the Italian opening songs is found on the album Cristalli, Petali e Misteri per Sailor Moon (Crystals, Petals and Mysteries for Sailor Moon), a CD produced in 1997. The album also contained a remix version of the first Italian song in an electropop style, and a narration of the last episode titled "Sailor Moon e il Trionfo delle Stelle" (Sailor Moon and the Triumph of Stars).

Censorship and Changes
- In the Italian version, as in many of the other foreign-language dubs, Zoisite and Fisheye were changed to be female.
- Wiseman was not Death Phantom, but instead was his servant.
- Haruka and Michiru were shown as two friends who considered each other as sisters, which meant any dialogue which referred to their relationship was completely changed.
- During Sailor Moon S, Mediaset put in flashbacks to earlier episodes to fill in running time.
- In episode 140, all scenes of Fisheye without his shirt were ethier zoomed in, or were replaced by fixed images or different shots.
- In Italy the anime was blamed by some psychologists and parents' associations because of its violent scenes and sexual references which, in their opinion, made it unfit for a young audience. In 1997 the psychologist Vera Slepoj declared that the last season would seriously compromise children's sexual identity, because of the Three Lights' sex change when they transformed into Sailor Senshi. Because of this, there were a number of changes which altered the storyline and affected the popularity of the series, one of which was that the Sailor Starlights were the twin sisters of the Three Lights. This change, however, did not occur until episode 188.
- In the last episode the voice actor for Kou Seiya, who was also the director of the dub, was added as a narrator, while all the scenes of Sailor Moon's nudity were replaced by fixed images or different shots.
- The last episode's ending was removed.
- Episode 89 was never aired.
- Episode 138 through episode 147 were broadcast in opposite order.
- Almost all vocal songs were removed. In episode 54, "Anata no Sei Janai" was replaced with a non-vocal version of "Eien no Melody." The same was done with "Ai no Senshi" in episode 68. "Azusa Nigou" in episode 99 was replaced with a non-vocal version of "Tuxedo Mirage." "Motto Suteki Na Asa Ga Kuru Yo" in episode 178 was replaced by a dubbed version of "Route Venus." However, "Watashi-tachi ni Naritakute," "Eien no Melody," "Route Venus," "Nagareboshi He," "Todokanu Omoi: My Friend's Love," and "Sailor Star Song" were all dubbed into Italian.

Manga
The manga was translated and published by Star Comics from 1995 to 1999, and released in 49 volumes. In the first and second Acts, Star Comics used Italian names (Bunny, Morea, Rea, etc.), the Death Phantom was renamed "Des Fantom," and Mamoru Chiba was called "Marzio Mamoru." The first volumes were published like a children's magazine, including games like tests and crossword puzzles.
Star Comics also published the Sailor V manga in the magazine Amici (Friends), releasing it in the first 14 volumes together with the other manga series Kaitou Saint Tail, Miracle Girls, and Haikara-san ga Toru.
In 2010, GP Publishing purchased the rights to the manga and reprinted it in both "standard" and "deluxe" versions, with the first volume released November 4, 2010. This reprint version contained all twelve volumes of the series, two volumes of the short stories, and two volumes of Codename: Sailor V, all with a new translation and new lettering, faithful to the original work.

Trivia
- Sailor Moon's usual Italian introductory speech was, "Sono la paladina della legge! Sono la combattente che veste alla marinara! Io sono Sailor Moon! E sono venuta fin qui per punirti, in nome della luna!" (I am the paladin of law! I am the soldier wearing a sailor suit! I am Sailor Moon! I am here to punish you, in the name of the Moon!). In the Sailor Moon R movie redubbed by Shin Vision, however, her introductory speech was more close to the original one: "Di amore e giustizia sono... la bella guerriera con la sailor-fuku... Sailor Moon! E adesso in nome della luna io ti punirò!" (Of love and justice am I... the pretty soldier with the sailor-fuku... Sailor Moon! And now in the name of the Moon I will punish you!).
