One of the companies that became famous in the 90s was sabanwhich adapted mostly Japanese programs to have them in a version for the USA. The clearest example is Power Rangers, which are inspired by the series of super sentaiand now, discarded material has been found regarding a version of sailor Moon for USA.
This project would take the main idea of the original manga and anime, but changing some specific aspects such as the narrative and the names of almost the entire cast of known characters. In addition, there would be a change that adds live action parts to the series, a twist that fans would not have thought was a good idea, because it would break the continuity.
saban presented the idea Toei Animation during the anime expo nineteen ninety five, where the promotional video was released with fragments of some episodes already prepared, but in the end they never came to light. However, that is over, since the youtuber, Ray Mona, made a documentary looking for the lost version, finding the first chapter.
Here you can see it (check the minute 1:43:48 of the video):
Without a doubt, this American version of sailor Moon, although its release would have been interesting, since its episodes could have contributed to the world of the internet in the form of memes. Still, the decision not to make the deal made it clear that the manga author cares enough about her property to give her such a radical change.
