SN 80: "The Terrifying Illusion: Ami All Alone"

Sailor Noob

Sailor Noob is the podcast where a Sailor Moon superfan and a total noob go episode by episode through the original Sailor Moon series!
Cheaters never prosper this week as the Black Moon Clan targets the Sailor Scout's most gentle member. Ami continues to excel as a student, but when a sinister plot frames her for cheating, she'll be pitted against her friends in a battle for her honor!
In this episode, we discuss academic pressure in Japan, ijime or "bullying" and the endemic problem of bullying in Japanese schools, hikikomori, futoko or "truancy", and Japanese "free schools". We also talk terrible Sailor Moon takes, developing while you regress, the Esai Morales Cram School, whomp whomp jokes, the high school to pre-school pipeline, organic plugs, Free to Be You and Me, Meryl Streep deep cuts, Aeon Flux chic, Jagged Little Etchings, being effective in your ineffectiveness, and Kal and Mika share their personal stories about school pressure!
How do you solve a problem like Usagi?
