Tomoyo Daidoji was renamed Madison Taylor, the rich and elegant character's speech pattern was changed to 'valley girl' speech. This was thought to be more relatable to the audience.

Spideyfan-0913 4 years ago Report
This change was in line with changes to all the characters. While Cardcaptor Sakura featured more polite and soft-spoken Japanese children, Cardcaptors portrayed the young characters to be far more outspoken. The dub aims to match what the new target audience would expect and appreciate.

Jack is less savage in the English dub, which is OK...but why did they have to make him British!?!

Despite that, Hun is never directly mentioned in dialogue as either male or female; the only pronouns referring to Hun are those used collectively with Attila, such as 'those men' or 'those guys'.

In Sailor Moon R, his harassment became so severe that no women stopped visiting the Hino Shrine. The local newspaper published an article about his perverted behavior. To meet women, he decided to abandon being a Shinto priest and find a job where he could interact with young women again.

Zoisite and Malachite had a loving relationship and still thought of each other, even when they were both killed. The censors didn't want young audiences to see LGBT relationships in Sailor Moon.

Some names were changed just because of the negative connotations they carried with them. For instance, the evil forces the Sailor Scouts battled against were originally called the Black Moon Clan. This was changed to the Negamoon Family.
