A mysterious girl walks in the rain… An ordinary day, an ordinary stretch of Tokyo road. Usagi walks blithely to school, distracted by the rain and her exhaustion. She misses a traffic signal. She steps out into the street–and straight into the path of a speeding car! Just then, the mysterious girl hurls herself in …
This week, according to Luna, Mamoru is a Suspicious Character! Yes. Thank you. Somebody finally noticed. This week, everyone is in a tizzy because Princess D is coming to Tokyo to show off her “secret treasure.” Um. Princess D of the Kingdom of D sounds like the title of a Sailor Moon porno, but, uh, …
This week features the appearance of Sailor Mars, the third and most hot-headed senshi. We also learn more about the Silver Crystal, via Queen Beryl and Luna. It has so much energy that whoever wields it will be the ruler of the world. Neato. Glad our MacGuffin is, like, a really good MacGuffin. We also …
In the original, Sailor Moon was, for a decent chunk of episodes, actually about Sailor Moon and only Sailor Moon as she went about fighting crime in her own unique way.

Sailor Moon is unquestionably the sparkling, magical queen of the magical girl genre. What Sailor Moon did would redefine the entire genre, as well as introduce an entire generation of young people to manga, anime, and girl power. A brief history of Sailor Moon: in 1991, a one shot manga called Codename: Sailor V was …
Last night I was a real rockstar and went to bed at 10 PM. I woke up refreshed from a dream about Mads Mikkelsen, and had tea and homemade scones for breakfast. And yet, I still don’t have the energy to care much that Crystal is ending, or how it ends. We drop back in …
It’s the end of the world and thank God, because that also means the end of Sailor Crystal (for now, anyway – no word yet on season three) is swiftly approaching. When we last saw our ineffectual heroes, Prince Demande was about to touch the past and present Silver Crystals together, bringing about the end …
Each fortnight, the pit of cold, nauseating dread in my stomach sinks just a little bit lower when I realize that it’ll soon be time to do another review, and I have to once again contemplate how much this show will ruin a couple of hours, and in what way. I only get so many …
