The very first episode of Sailor Moon in the English speaking world. The next day, everyone recalls a dream about a monster attacking them, but Usagi is too tired to care. Luna then tells Sailor Moon to use her tiara to destroy the youma. The masked man who threw it introduces himself as Tuxedo Mask and says he will protect Sailor Moon. Just when things seem hopeless, a red rose shoots from the sky and stops the youma from attacking. The youma sends her servants after her and Sailor Moon doesn't act very super hero-like. Once there, they see the youma attacking Naru. Luna and Sailor Moon immediately rush to help. After she becomes Sailor Moon, she hears Naru scream and yell for help. Usagi doesn't really believe any of this at first until she actually transforms.
She introduces herself as Luna and tells Usagi that she is Sailor Moon. The cat she saved earlier jumps into her window and begins to talk. When Usagi returns home, she decides to take a nap, but her nap doesn't last long. Mamoru makes fun of Usagi's grade and gives her the nickname "Odango Atama" (Dumpling Head). Unfortunately, it lands on a man's head (who we later learn is Mamoru). She is upset about her test and throws it away. Usagi decides to leave the store and go home. She sends the General, Jadeite, to collect energy for her and he thus sends Morga, who impersonates Naru's mother. First, she wants energy to revive their great ruler, and second, she wants the Legendary Silver Crystal. The Dark Kingdom is ruled by Queen Beryl, who is trying to do two things. Unbeknownst to Naru, that is not really her mother but a youma of the Dark Kingdom. She is giving out ridiculous bargains which is not something she usually does. Once there, Naru finds her mom acting quite strange. Naru and Umino explain and Naru then suggests that they go to Osa-P, her mom's jewelry shop. Usagi had never heard of Sailor V before. They begin to talk and Sailor V comes up.
Of course, Usagi is late and is forced to wait out in the hall and is unfortunately notified that she got a 30% on her last test.
The cat jumps back and starts to investigate Usagi, but Usagi has no time for this and runs off as soon as she hears the late bell. Usagi removes it to reveal a crescent bald spot. Usagi rushes to its aid to find a Band-Aid on its forehead. As she is running to school, she notices a group of kids tormenting a cat. As usual, she has overslept her alarm clock and is late for school. As she would say, she's a bit clumsy and a slight crybaby, but that's Usagi for you. (Crybaby Usagi's Beautiful Transformation!)
