The Mexican dub of the Sailor Moon anime was done by Intertrack. The dubbing was directed by Gloria Rocha for the first season, and by Patricia Acevedo for the second through fifth seasons. Patricia also provided the voice for Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon in the dub.
All five seasons were dubbed, as were the three movies. None of the specials were dubbed. All of the episodes were aired without major changes except for episode 89, which was the only episode never dubbed.
The show was aired on Mexican local station TV Azteca from 1996-1999. At first it was aired Monday-Friday from 15:00-16:00, but it was later moved to Saturdays from 11:00-12:00.
Music
The music was kept intact, but only the theme songs "Moonlight Densetsu" and "Heart Moving" were dubbed (as "La Leyenda de la Luz de Luna" and "En Mi Sueño," respectively), so these songs were used for the entire series, including the movies. The only other song from the original which was dubbed was "Maboroshi no Ginzuishou," which was used when Princess Serenity appeared for the first time.
Names
In the Mexican dub, the Inner Senshi were called "Sailor Scouts," the same as in the English dub. The Outer Senshi were called "Sailor Guerreras" (Sailor Warriors). Sailor Pluto's name was changed to "Sailor Plut;" this was reportedly because of copyright issues with Disney, but no official reason was ever given. The Senshi's civilian names were also usually changed to use the English dub names, although Prince Endymion kept his name. Princess Kakyuu was called "Princesa de Fuego" (Princess of Fire), or "Princesa del Planeta de Fuego" (Princess of the Fire Planet).
The Dark Kingdom was called the "Negaverse," and the Shitennou were given the same names as in the English dub.
Ail and An were named "Alan" and "Ann," and their civilian names were "Steven Alpha" and "Melissa Alpha." The Cardians were called "Naipes," the Spanish word for playing cards.
The Ayakashi Sisters were given the names of the actual minerals from which the original names were derived, so they were Kermesite, Berthierite, Calaverite, and Petzite. Rubeus kept his name, but the other members of the Black Moon Clan were given the Spanish-translated versions of their namesake gems; Esmeraude became "Esmeralda," Saphir became "Zafiro," and Prince Dimande became "Diamante." Black Lady was referred to as "La Dama de la Oscuridad" (The Lady of Darkness). Droids were called "Droidos."
Most of the villains in Sailor Moon S either kept their names or had them directly translated, as in "Dama 9" (Mistress 9) or "Faraón 90" (Pharaoh 90). The only exception to this was Eudial, who was renamed "Yuyal." The Daimons were called "Demonios" (Demons).
In the Sailor Moon SuperS season, most of the main villains' names were either kept or directly translated, but Hawk's Eye became "Ojo de Águila" (Eagle's Eye) for unknown reasons. The Lemures became either "Sombras" (Shadows) or "Comesueños" (Dream-Eaters).
Sailor Galaxia and the Sailor Animamates kept their names, although they were pronounced like the Japanese version (e.g. "Aluminum Seilen" or "Lead Kurow") but the Phages were referred to as "Zombies."
Censorship
Compared to the English dub, there was only minor censorship.
Zoisite and Fisheye were both changed to be women, just like in the English dub, but later since episode 140 Fisheye was a man, instead.
The Holy Grail was renamed as the "Copa Lunar" (Moon Cup), and the Messiah was mentioned once by that name and later renamed to "Enviado del Bien" (Envoy of Good) or "Enviado del Mal" (Envoy of Evil). Star Gentle Uterus was also changed in its translation, and became "Estrella de Sailor Maker" (Star of Sailor Maker).
Other than that, no censorship was done; the Senshi deaths, the nude scenes, and Haruka and Michiru's relationship all remained. The Sailor Starlights still changed gender when they transformed, and were even given different voice actors in their male and female forms.
Phrases
In the original, Mamoru called Usagi "odango atama," a reference to her hairstyle. In the Mexican dub, Darien called her "cabeza de chorlito," which translates approximately as "scatterbrain" or "airhead." Instead of teasing her about her hair, he was actually being rude to her.
Sailor Moon's trademark "I will punish you" speech was translated into two different forms. The first one, which was used for almost the entire series, was, "Soy una Sailor Scout que lucha por el amor y la justicia, soy Sailor Moon! Y te castigaré en el nombre de la Luna!" (I am a Sailor Scout who fights for love and justice, I am Sailor Moon! And I will punish you in the name of the Moon!). The second version, which appeared only in a few of the first episodes, was, "Defiendo el amor y la justicia, soy una Sailor Scout con traje de marinero, soy Sailor Moon! Y te voy a castigar en el nombre de la Luna!" (Defending love and justice, I am a sailor-suited Sailor Scout, I am Sailor Moon! And I will punish you in the name of the Moon!)
