Authenticity Guide

This section is meant to serve as a comprehensive shopping guide for those interested in purchasing officially released VHS & DVD items containing the original 90s English Dub of Sailor Moon. Please consider this entire website your resource for Moon Power.

Due to the nature in which the series was released, there have been many unofficial Sailor Moon VHS & DVDs created and sold over the years. All items sold and featured on Sailor Moon Video are authentic, collectible VHS and DVD items with accurate images and descriptions. When shopping elsewhere, please feel free to reference any item's details from our website to be sure you are making an informed purchase.

The Signature Series

Some authentic DVDs (The Signature Series by Genon) and other official box sets are not yet listed on Sailor Moon Video. Don't worry! They're coming soon.

 

When shopping for The Signature Series, look for the Genon Pioneer Signature Series branding across the top of the case, and a white DVD case. Some DVDs get moved to less-damaged cases over the years, so keep that in mind.

 

Buena Vista Video, ADV Films, and Genon / Pioneer are the only production companies that officially released the original 90s dub of Sailor Moon in any format.
