This article is about anything related to Sailor Moon releases in the country of Spain. In Spain, the series was dubbed in three languages: Castilian, Catalan, Galician.
Anime[]
Sailor Moon Classic, R and S appeared on Antena 3 starting from 1993. Vulpi Yuri recorded dialogues for Spanish. In the late 1990s, Canal Sur 2 translated Sailor Moon Sailor Stars. Arait Multimedia recorded dialogues. In 2000 Antena 3 translated Sailor Moon SuperS. Tecnison recorded dialogues and also released Sailor Moon R as Sailor Moon: La Película.
Later, the series was also broadcasted on Fox Kids España.
Censorship and Changes[]
The opening for the European Spanish dub is the same as the original Japanese opening with the obvious exceptions being the language of the title card and song (Luz de Luna, a Spanish language version of Moonlight Legend but not the same one as Mexico's) as well as the fact that a male voice says "Sailor Moon!" as the title card appears.
For some reason, the Sailor Guardians' are called Guerrero even though it's the male form of a warrior, and is omitted the particle 'de' that means 'from', for example, Guerrero Mercurio instead Guerrero de Mercurio or in the other case is Guerrero Lunar or Guerrero de la Luna. Bizarrely the characters' first names are changed while their surnames remain the same, similar to the trading card game.
Usagi's name was changed to "Bunny", same as other european dubs like French, being an obvious translaton of her Japanese name to English. In the first season, Mamoru Chiba's name was changed to "Armando Riva", but in Sailor Moon R his surname was changed to "Hiba" and since Sailor Moon R: The Movie to he rest of the series he remained his original surname. Despite Usagi's name being changed, Chibiusa remained her original name, same as other european dubs, breaking the play on words of their names. Haruka and Michiru were renamed as "Timmy" and "Vicky", having similar names. However, Haruka being renamed as Timmy has no sense as Timmy is a male name and Haruka is a woman.
The villain groups and monsters also had their names changed:
The Dark Kingdom is known as "Reino de la Oscuridad" (Kingdom of Darkness), being a similar name as the original. The Youma are called "Devilsters", being a combination of the English words "devils" and "monsters". The Shitennou are known as "Los Cuatro Grandes del Reino de la Oscuridad" (The Big Four of the Kingdom of Darkness). Jadeite and Nephrite has given regular names as "Daniel" (Jadeite) and "Ramiro" (Nephrite), and his pseudonym, Masato Saunjoin, was changed to "Antonio Saunjoin"; while Zoisite and Kunzite had their names mispronounced, similar that in the DiC English dub, being "Zósite" (Zoisite) and "Constite" (Kunzite).
The Makai Tree was called "Árbol de la Maldad" (Tree of Evil), while Ail and An were called "Álex" and "Annie" in their both identities. The Cardians are called "Cartas" (Cards).
The Black Moon Clan is known as "Clan de la Luna Negra", being a literal translation of the original name. The Droids are pronounced as "Droidas", also Atsugessho and Furaiki were called by this way. The Spectre Sisters are known as "Las Cuatro Hermanas de la Maldad" (The Four Sisters of Evil) and their names are "Karmesite" (Koan), "Berthierite" (Berthier), "Petzite" (Petz) and "Calaverite" (Calaveras); changing only the termination of their names. Wiseman is known as "Hombre Sabio" and every member of the Black Moon Clan has their name translated to Spanish except Rubeus, who remains the original one.
Xenian Flower and Fiore's names weren't changed, while the Flower Youma are called "Demonios" (Demons).
The Death Busters are known as "Asociación de Brujas Impías" (Impious Witches Asociation), Pharaoh 90's name was translated to Spanish as "Faraón 90" while Mistress 9 had the same problem as the Sailor Guardians as she was named "Maestro 9", being maestro the male form of master. Kaolinite both in her villain and civilian indetities she was named "Yuka", beinh a female Japanese name. Witches 5 was translated to "Brujas 5", similar to the Shitennou, most of them has given regular Spanish tipical names: Eudial as "Eugenia", Tellu as "Marta" and Viluy as "Beatriz", only Mimete and Cyprine remained their original names and Ptilol has the same name that in the CWi English dub and other foreign dubs, "Petirol". The Daimons are called "Dimones", being probably a mispronunciation of the original name and the Daimon Eggs are called "Semillas del Mal" (Seeds of Evil).
The Dead Moon Circus was translated as "Circo de la Luna Muerta", the lteral translation of the original name. Same as other dubs Queen Nehelenia's name was pronounced as "Neherenia". The Amazon Trio are known as "Trio Amazón" while their names where literally translated to Spanish. The Amazoness Quartet are known as "Cuarteto de Amazonas" and their names are unalterated, althougn PallaPalla is pronounced as "ParaPara". The Lemures are known as "Rémones", being probably a mispronunciation of the original name or derived from he CWi English dub name, Remless.
Shadow Galactica's name was never mentioned in the dub while same as the Sailor Guardians, they villains are always called Guerrero instead of sailor. While Sailor Galaxia and Sailor Iron Mouse's name were not changed the other Sailor Animamates' names were literality translated, in the case of Sailor Tin Nyanko was named "Guerrero Chica Miau" (Sailor Girl Meow). The Phage are known as "Marionetas" (puppets).
In the first season, Princess Serenity was named "Selene", the name of the godess that Queen Serenity her mother is based on, despite her mother retaing her original name, although since Sailor Moon R to the rest of the series she is named Serenity, same as the original.
Since Episode 25 almost every Monster-of-the-day when they are killed by the Sailor Guardians says "Desaparezco" (I dissapear).
In Sailor Moon S, Sailor Chibi Moon was named "Guerrero Chibiusa", but in Sailor Moon Super S and Sailor Moon Sailor Stars she is named "Guerrero Chibi Luna".
There is hardly any censorship apart from Zoisite calling Kunzite "uncle" and both of them having feminine voices. Additionally, Kunzite is referred to using a feminine pronoun.
Queen Metalia's gender was changed to male for unknown reasons, as well he is called "Energía Metalia" (Energy Metalia). Sameway, the Makai Tree has given a male voice despite in the Japanese version and most of the dubs she has a female voice.

Trivia[]
- In the Latin Spanish dub, the voice actress of Queen Nehelenia (Reina Neherenia) had a Spain accent because the dub used the Spain masters for the SuperS arc.
