Okay, so Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon R on Game Boy is one of those old-school side-scrollers where you play as Usagi—or one of the other Sailor Scouts if you unlock them. It’s got that classic 90s anime vibe, with chibi-style sprites and these weirdly catchy chiptune renditions of the Sailor Moon theme.

At first, it feels like a standard beat-em-up—you’re running through Tokyo smacking monsters with your Moon Tiara. But then the game throws these weird time-travel enemies at you, and suddenly it’s not just about punching stuff. Some stages have these annoying platforming bits where you’re jumping between floating platforms, and the controls are… well, Game Boy controls. You’ll get used to them, but don’t expect precision.

Honestly, the best part is unlocking the other Sailor Scouts—Mercury’s bubble attack is weirdly satisfying, and Jupiter’s lightning actually feels powerful. The game’s short, but if you grew up with Sailor Moon, it’s a fun little nostalgia trip. Just don’t expect a deep story—it’s mostly about kicking bad guys and looking cute while doing it.
