Broadcast
RTP1 buys the rights of the anime, in 1999, and premieres it in 2001, with a new dubbing made by Nacional Filmes studios, which covered all the 200 episodes of the anime. However, the old dubbing was shown again on TVI and Canal Panda channels (on Canal Panda only the S, SuperS and Stars seasons). Despite starting to broadcast the 1st dubbing in 2002, Canal Panda decided to broadcast the 2nd dubbing from 2003 to 2004, when lost the exhibition rights.

From 2005 to 2006, RTP1 returns to broadcast the first 2 seasons at midnight.

Between 2007 and 2008, Prisvideo (nowadays PRIS Audiovisuais) launched DVDs of the anime, with Japanese and Portuguese audios and Portuguese and English subtitles. Only 10 volumes with 3 episodes each were launched (with a total of 30 episodes released).

Between March 2011 and 2015, thanks to Toei's efforts to re-promote the brand internationally, Canal Panda broadcast all seasons with the 2nd dubbing, completely remastered.

At the end of 2015, NOS Audiovisuais edited the anime on DVD and this time also in Blu-ray format. The films and specials were released at this time and dubbed by a new cast.

On March 1, 2020, the 1st season premieres, without any notice, on RTP Play (RTP streamimg platform). On June 7, in addition to debuting the R season, it also adds the option of subtitles in Portuguese (although Japanese audio is not available). On September 6, S season was added. On December 5, SuperS and Stars were added.

Since January 2, 2021, RTP2 has been broadcasting the anime every weekend at 10:00 pm.

Trivia

 * In episode 10 of the 1st dub it is revealed that "Bunny" is just a nickname for the character, but despite her real name being Berta, everyone calls her by her nickname. This also happened on the 2nd dub.
 * This dub stood out for not having any type of censorship, softened dialogs or gender changes that happened in the 1st dub.
 * However, the dub adapted even more names and terms than the 1st version.
 * Attacks and transformations were retranslated.
 * All openings were dubbed but of all endings only "Heart Moving", "Otome no Policy", "Tuxedo Mirage", "Rashiku Ikimasho", "Kaze mo Sora mo Kitto ..." were dubbed as well.
 * During Season 1, "Heart Moving" is shown with the footage of "Princess Moon" between the episodes 26-46;
 * In SuperS season, "Rashiku Ikimasho" is used in the first 13 episodes with the footage of "Watashitachi ni Naritakute";
 * R, S and Stars seasons are as in the original version.
 * Insert songs that are not sung by the characters were not dubbed.
 * In RTP and Canal Panda broadcasts, translated credits are used for those involved in the dub (only during closings, because the openings had no credits), English credits for mentions that were originally in Japanese and the same logo in all seasons.
 * By Toei imposition, Prisvideo edition was marketed under the name of Sailor Moon, and also had untranslated songs and credits, which did not please the public used to the TV version which resulted in the withdrawal of the publisher to continue publishing the DVDs.
 * Prisvideo edition was based on ADV Films' "Sailor Moon - Season One - Complete and Uncut", that's why it has English subtitles, the only difference is that this edition was divided and not finished.
 * NOS edition featured credits completely translated, new credits of the dub, translated songs and new logos for each season, inserted on the covers of the volumes and in the opening and closing of the anime.
 * NOS also adapted the name of the Stars season to "Navegante da Lua nas Estrelas". To all the others, just added the original subtitle.
 * When the films and specials were dubbed it was not possible to call the original cast because all the studios of Nacional Filmes were liquidated.
 * Most of the new cast would end up dubbing the 2nd European Portuguese dub of Sailor Moon Crystal.
 * RTP Play and RTP2 broadcasts use the NOS edition.
