Guest Stars

TARGET LEMURES
Amy Sammy Ponko


Translation

1) After Tiger-eye asks if Amy wants to join him at his private beach and the girls all invite themselves, in the Dub Amy refuses by saying, "I can't go without my buds!" in the original she says, "I was careless too"
2) In the Dub Tiger-eye thinks Sammy is a relative of Amy's. In the original Tiger-eye thinks Sammy is Amy's boyfriend.
3) Here's a good one...
Close your eyes and listen to the Dubbed Ponko voice. Now think about a Smurf and how they sound. Freaky isn't it!


Animation

1) Just some funny things that are worth mentioning, I am supprised that the Dub left in the close-up shot of the speedo that Raye sees while looking for some hot guys.
2) A very funny joke that the Dub kills is "Sammy the Pimp". Neither the Original nor the Dub ever call him a Pimp but if you just think about it that's the image he is supposed to have in this episode
3) The wrapping around the wooden spoon that Tiger-eye uses says, "Ice cream"


Cuts

1) After Zirconia speaks to the Trio it cuts (with a graphic)...

can see the radio's
brand is a Zony)

2) After Tiger-eye bumps into Amy, right after the pan left shot of the girls with heart eyes it cuts a shot of "Sammy the Pimp" saying, "Hey, you! Listen up! If you want to get a woman..." Then Mina shoves him out of the way and so ends the cut.
3) On the boat right after the pan-up shot of Amy, it cuts short the next shot of Sammy with rosy cheeks.
4) Right after Ponko pulls out the first ball (the red one) it cuts a close-up shot with some text that reads, "Warning it's dangerous, Don't do it".


Music

1) After the wipe scene change you can hear "Onaji Namida wo Wakeatte" playing in the background. Some background info on this song in the original, this is the same song that was played way back in the R season when Amy was going to go off studying ("Sailor Mercury Moving On?" in the Dub which was replaced with "Only A Memory Away").
2) Right after the commercial break you can hear "Rashiku" Ikimasho playing in the background. In the original, this song is the second ending theme for the SuperS season as well as for the Ami-chan special.

Usagi: I'll become a ballet star, shining in the sky at night!
Chibiusa: Usagi is burning with desire!
Usagi: No discipline would beat me!
Chibiusa: Then, you must go on a diet! You are getting too big these days!
