During the mid 1990s, two companies, DiC and Toon Makers, were battling for the rights of the anime Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon. DiC wanted to localize it for North American syndication, while Toon Makers wanted to rework the anime series entirely, into their live-action/animation Americanized version. In the end, DiC received the rights to the first two seasons of the series.
DiC had altered several things during their tenure with Sailor Moon, such as choosing to replace the already made Japanese soundtrack with their own, in-house work. Although the vocal music including insert songs and the theme song from the show did get three official CD releases. The background soundtrack, including transformation and battle cues, have never been released in their entirety.
On November 12th, 2002 only nine cues from the DiC background soundtrack were released on the "Sailor Moon: The Full Moon Collection" CD.
Going as far back from 2013, many fans of the DiC soundtrack have made many attempts to get the soundtrack released including creating petitions to raise awareness and gain attention from record companies who may show interest in releasing the DiC soundtrack but to no avail.
In February 2021, a Youtuber by the name of ThomasFan1945 ProductionsTM, contacted the composers of the DiC background soundtrack Bob Summers and Don Perry to ask them whether they had a copy of the soundtrack which they did not. However in September 2021, the composers did find a CD that was made during the early production of the DiC dub that contains some of the cues including demos and unused tracks to which ThomasFan1945 ProductionsTM uploaded on one of their YouTube channels on September 11th, 2021.
The DiC soundtrack is currently owned by a Canadian company Wildbrain.
