Slim CityEpisode Number: 3 Season Num: 1 First Aired: Wednesday September 13, 1995 Prod Code: C03 |
After weighing herself, Serena thinks she's gaining weight and is getting fat. Luna draws a picture of "Sailor Blimp," so Serena gets upset and looks into this weight thing. At school, Melvin shows Serena some pictures of Mrs. Haruna, who lost tons of weight at a new fitness center. Serena, Molly, and their friends decide to check this place out. The fitness instructor, Jed, is a "total hunkster," so the girls do exactly what he says. Luna investigates and notices that their are 'relaxation pods' in the basement that drain human energy, and Mrs. Haruna's going to die soon from it! She pulls Serena away from her dieting to check it out. It's apparent that this whole fitness center is another trick by the Negaverse to steal energy! Serena transforms and battles hypnotized body builders, one of her toughest challenges yet (the first and last time you'll see her actually hit someone). The day is saved, by Sailor Moon!

(edit)
In the dub, at the end, Sammy messed with the scale to make Serena think she gained weight. But in the original, Serena really did gain weight!
(edit)
When Sailor Moon battled the hypnotised body builders, she was scared. In the dub, Luna gave Sailor Moon a lecture about being brave. In the original, Luna told Sailor Moon to destroy the gold rings to put them back to normal. In the dub, Luna reminded Sailor Moon about Mrs. Haruna when she ran away. In the original, Luna told Sailor Moon she might lose weight if she fights the body builders.
(edit)
In the original, Jedite mentioned that Mrs. Haruna would die soon.

When Serena puts up her hand to transform, we see her palm instead of the usual back.
(edit)
The title of this episode is a refference to the Sim City game. in a manner of speaking.
