Thanks. Not quite a billion pictures, but before omitting the blurries and the bad shots, there were almost 1000 pics. Up until now, it's mostly been Sailor Moon, specifically, the musicals since Sailor Moon's music library between the anime, musicals, and live action is HUGE. If you watch the clip I did for Pixar Play Parade from our 2008 trip, you'll hear the orchestra version of "Sanctuary" from Kingdom Hearts 2.

This time, I decided to use more Final Fantasy. Having the albums for 7, 8, and 9 is a huge resource. FF9 seemed to work best this time around. Ironically enough, there never used to be Disney music and now there is (most of it being eurobeat) and even "Aoi Kaze No Hope" from the Dragonball Z Trunks OVA, too.

Are you talking about "Ai" in part 1? That one comes from the regular Sailor Moon R anime. The parts I remember that appearing was when the Usagi got back the Silver Crystal and her Crystal Star compact was born and also after defeating Death Phantom in episode 88. It was also used when Nehelenia visited Helios during SuperS.

If you're talking about another track, part 2 has 3 tracks from the musical. The music playing during Indy is a villain piece from Black Lady. The music overlayed on Pirates is from Black Lady and it's a fight scene (Mars, Jupiter, and Mercury vs the Ayakashi 3 Sisters). The last one is from Mugen Gakuen and it's based on that musical's theme song "Hereafter".

Part 6's "Mou Ii No Fantasy" is from the Shin Densestsu musical, which is Chibi Chibi's song (the only time the song is not sung a capella).

The music at the beginning of part 7 is from the Sailor Moon S musical. It's from an Usagi/Ami scene. If you've never seen it, I'll use a spoiler box.

Spoiler

It's from Ami's death scene

"Usagi Circus Showtime" in part 8 is from the SuperS musical (Usagi's circus dream sequence) and "Variety Bangumi Opening" is an instrumental verion of "Usagi Circus Showtime" from Shin Densetsu (the inner senshi go on a game show with the Amazon Trio in disguise).

In part 9, "Shin Henshin Sailor Moon" is transformation music. Pretty much, you hear Usagi shout one of her transformation phrases, then she comes out from the wings, or in the case of Mugen, she flies in. The "Fire" portion of that song typically isn't heard.

Part 11 uses the overture from Eien Densetsu while the track that comes after it is comes from a fight scene that's in the Sailor Moon S musical (Serenity, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, and Tux vs Death Busters).

Thanks. I was thinking of the music more in that "after the battle" sense from SMR ep 88. The music has a warm feeling, so why not use it through Main Street as well? To give you a little perspective on last year's Main Street segment used "Omoinokino****e", which is from Sailor Moon's first musical from the Venus vs Kunzite scene. It's based on Minako's solo, which has a title that's translated as "Love on a Tree Lined Road".

BTW, the correct kana characters for my name are コーテス.

It's just my last name (Cortez) in katakana. Since it's foreign (to Japanese), katakana are the appropriate characters.

I know. The whole thing is on the long side. It took a couple months to complete the entire thing.

Thanks. Sometimes I play around with effects and stuff. This time I played with zooming.
