Personally, I would't count either of these. They don't seem to fit the spirit of a new production.

Horrible. When the animators feel the need to show the main girl's huge boobs in three different scenes of the very first episode, you know they have nothing of quality to offer.
Too bad. The premise of a hero returning to his own world after defeating a demon king is kind of awesome... But here it's completely wasted on a show that revolves around shitty fanservice scenes.
Ugh. What a clown.
Wut.

You're right in that they don't represent a significant investment of time and resources on the behalf of a studio that a brand new production does. However, they do represent a 'scraping the bottom of the barrel for whatever people used to like' mentality. I'll have them separate.
This list got longer fast:

I find it pretty cool that a guy's singing it.

Drawing more parallelisms with the game industry trends, after sequels and remakes... enhanced editions! Thankfully, here there aren't compatibility issues with different platforms or things like that, and many film prints can be transferred with beautiful quality for new releases, but for popular works from the early digital era of Japanese animation they can keep trying to exploit them with these "enhancements" over and over again. Stagnation for everyone, no entertainment industry is safe!

[Moysahimon Returns] - 1
Well, that's a rather unfortunate way to start a new season of Moyashimon. This episode really had no focus to it at all and the pacing was all over the place. It was a bad mix of: narration to explain the world and characters to new viewers, exposition dumps about sake and sake processing, gags and the actual content of the episode.
I think it would have been a good mood to just let the show speak for itself without attempting to explain every facet of Moyashimon within the first five minutes of the new series. If viewers aren't familiar with the series then that's not really a problem because there's not that much you need to know.
Even ignoring that glaring problem, the pacing of this episode was really bad. A lot of those fact-heavy dumps could have been trimmed or excised to allow actual character interaction to occur.

You read it right to left, top to bottom. Eyes then mouth.
But, man... I can't always go composing the face like that when I am referring to it! That... is... wrong!

Oh my GOD, girl, that ugly CG car is going to eat you!
And so he did.
So this show is about a huge crew of annoying high school kids doing annoying things in their useless club and fighting for their right to waste money on ridiculous amounts of candy. Oh, and their school has an amazing student council structure. And there's apparently an espionage subplot.
I was already impressed by the osananajimi's color-changing hair...
... But then Queen Ahoge showed up. Seriously. It's amazing:
Wow.

From what I'm seeing, the new Sailor Moon project
- will not be a movie,
- will stick closely to the original manga,
- will be designed for older fans of the original, not for kids.
Following this example 'nowano' should be equally accepted... I demand compensations!

What is K-on?
but why are yout watching all the crappy shows? I'm confused. Is this a call for help?
Nah. I just watched the first episodes of these two shitty shows to assure myself that I'm not missing anything this season.

Bah, she's one of the better, more entertaining characters in the series. I like her.
Don't worry, episode 11 is even worse!
IS, truly one of the most entertaining shows around! Very few animes do inane idiocy better, after all.
(But yes, ep. 11 is the worst episode in the series. Have fun.)
Yeah, just watch the series a couple more times and you'll see the light. Focus particularly on rerunning ep. 9 over and over.
That's bad, not good. A series as entertainingly bad as IS is deserves an ending...
Whats the catch?

I don't know if this is a good (more classy) or bad (more fanservice) thing
That is certainly more than I was expecting to get. Thanks BGBW!
I'll name it 'nowano', obviously!

Huh? Any source for those, especially the first one? I don't think they've said anything officially yet about the content of this new production, aside from it not being a movie.
Anyway, I can't see Toei just leaving a property like Sailor Moon, so, if they're involved, I can see them going after an older audience here, considering how they already have Pretty Cure for young girls, so a new Sailor Moon series aimed at the same market would just be competing with themselves. On the other hand, I guess Sailor Moon does have an easier time with international distribution, so it could make sense if they have that as a goal.
pretty much my reaction.
I think some of it is taken out of context a little. There's a better article which has quotes from the event itself: http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/movie/2014017/full/
What they've said is that this is a series, not a movie, and that they do not want to disappoint long time fans who have grown up with the franchise and are now adults. So they are going to POWER UP the new anime compared to the previous works (higher production values?). They also confirm plans on a worldwide release next Summer.

I'm sure it'll be terrible like everything else these days. Speaking of which,
Dreadful.
Whatever.
From the Twitter of someone who was watching the conference live.
I take back what I said before about the changes not being noticeable. Downgrade total.
Holy shit, why the fuck did they butcher the designs?

Downgrade.
Well, shit; that sucks.

They both look pretty dreadful to me.
Come on, we are talking about a whole generation (from both genders) of now adults, things like obvious pandering or fan-service ain't gonna fly with such a general public, right?

It will be more fanservice-y. Bank on it.
Is that so, hosannainexcelsis? What happened to the tsu ri ta ma love? That series still needs you!
The worst thing about this is that everything is ugly now and it's still going to bomba.
If someone photoshopped cups of tea in their hands would you like it more?
Lol, going for dat throat.

I've never been a big fan of big red lips.
Which show is it? I'm still dreadfully out of the loop with recent stuff.
