I am currently watching the Wedding peach series(it is a good show) and when I was watching episode 20, Wedding Peach took of her Tiara and threw like Sailor Moon does. I know some of the producers from Sailor Moon worked on the show but I didn't think they would go that far. It was awesome though.

*cough*
Wedding Peach has actually been accused of copying Sailor Moon, for other reasons, so I'm not sure if that qualifies as a "tribute".
I shall stay silent as I have never seen Wedding Peach.

It is not a copy. It is just a similar genre, and you never seen it anyway so how do you know if it's a copy.XD

I also noticed that Angel Lily has the same ending pose as Sailor Mercury (trust them to use that pose...of them all, I mean...) But, yeah, it has been accused of copying but alot of magical girl series are accused of copying Sailor Moon because it has pretty much everything to make a magical girl series in it...it's kinda hard not to copy to anymore

But I hate how people say it is a copy, it is a whole other show. Sure Sailor Moon was the first but people liked it and so they made other shows similar to that style and people like them. I still don't see it being a copy.

Yeah, it pisses me off a bit too...but people have their "opinions" (hint I didn't use the word "fact")

I meant no disrespect. All I am saying is that you should see it yourself instead of listening to other people rant about how they think it is a copy.

I've seen only a couple episodes, and I personally think it's quite copyish... >_<
I stopped watching because it annoyed me lol
I mean I understand that all Magical Girl animes are similar... but I just couldn't ignore it, so I just stopped watching.
I'm not gonna go around and say "AUGH WEDDING PEACH IS TERRIBLY HORRIBLE DON'T WATCH IT!"
I just refuse to watch anymore because of how much of a copy it appeared to be...

And I'm just the messenger; I do not have an opinion on either side although what I have seen does appear rather copyish.

Eh, the "copy" aspect of Wedding Peach didn't really bother me. It's made by Toei, so there's bound to be a ton of similarities. They even use a ton of Sailor Moon sound effects. No, what bothered me was the really long transformations (think Sailor Moon's were long? OHOHOHO) and some of the attacks. The grenade attack thing? Yeah, wtf. And putting on the wedding dresses before their battle outfits seemed really unnecessary. For the record, I've never seen a full episode of Wedding Peach. I've just seen clips and shoddily made "battledomes" on Youtube and developed an opinion of it very quickly.

I hate the long transformations. They show them every single episode for some reason. i just skip them, and watch them when I am really bored.
The most useless attack though is one of Angel Lily's. All it does is shoot out stars. Nothing more. It doesn't even harm the enemy. Just distracts them for like a second.

I've seen (and own) the entire Wedding Peach series. It is similar to Sailor Moon in some ways but it's also different. I mean not every single anime/manga series is completely original so you have to expect some similarities sometimes.

Yeah. I am only up to episode 35. I need to keep watching. It also has Sailor Moon voice actress as one of the villains.
