Would anyone like to explain to me why the vast majority of the QRTs on this post are calling her “mother”? This is not a term I heard before this week. I appreciate the enthusiasm I’m just confused about the meaning.
The long lost Toon Makers’ Sailor Moon Pilot has been found! Check out that footage and much more in the "Finding Saban Moon: The Western World of Sailor Moon" documentary by

The Sailor Moon manga is 30 years old! The manga was first published in December 28th 1991. We can now celebrate the 5th anniversary of the ongoing 25th anniversary of Sailor Moon.
19 years ago today the live action Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon series first aired in Japan. A great series that’s well worth watching. Did you like this show?
A new Sailor Moon Cosmos trailer gives us our first look at the Sailor Starlights! It features the voices of Saori Hayami as Sailor Star Maker, Marina Inoue as Sailor Star Fighter and Ayane Sakura as Sailor Star Healer. The films come out in Japan in June!
These recently surfaced images appear to be from a planned Sailor V anime series which was scrapped when it was decided to make the Sailor Moon anime instead. These images are from a Yahoo! Auctions Japan listing which is no longer online.
June 30th is Usagi and Chibiusa’s birthday! Since Usagi was 14 in early 1992 this would make her 44 today. Chibiusa is likely born on her 23rd birthday making her 11, though her growth would already be stunted by 2021.
Sailor Moon Crystal started in 2014. Usage was 14. She gets married and is pregnant with Chibiusa at 22. The post credits scene, if taking place in real time, occurred two years ago. Chibiusa would be one or two today.
Twenty years ago today the first episode of the live action Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon series aired on Japanese TV. Did you watch this show? What did you think about it?
Sailor Moon Cosmos Part 1 is now out in theatres in Japan. We have not yet heard any news about a release outside of Japan but this isn't necessarily surprising. If Sailor Moon Eternal is used as a precedent we may not get details for a few months.
Happy Birthday to Naoko Takeuchi, the creator of Sailor Moon! Thanks for all the good times. Is she 51 or 52? Check out this post to see why I'm not sure!
This gift bag is 27 years old. My mother reused it for my gifts for years and last night she put one my daughter’s birthday gifts in it. Let’s see how many more years she can get out of it!
After nearly 20 years an updated English translation of Sailor Moon Another Story has been released. This Super Famicom (SNES) JRPG is a fan favourite. This version includes 400 updated bits of dialogue as well as code changes for optional cheats.
The first episode of the original Sailor Moon anime, The Crybaby: Usagi’s Beautiful Transformation, first aired on Japanese TV 32 years ago today, on March 7th 1992.
Thanks to a collaboration between Bufferin and Sailor Moon Eternal we finally have a look at the designs for Sailor Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Saturn from the upcoming Sailor Moon Eternal film. What do you think?
They made a live action show based on Naoko Takeuchi’s husband’s manga. Isn’t that nice for him. Now they can both talk about their live action shows at the dinner table.
Hiroshi Watari, a popular actor from metal hero series and the husband of the late Emi Shinohara, shares these photos of some Sailor Jupiter objects displayed at her funeral, including an art piece by Naoko Takeuchi.
Sailor Neptune is Nerissa. Sailor Uranus is Corinn. Sailor Pluto is Celia. I’d never heard this alternate dub names before. This is the booklet for a Super Sailor Moon toy from 1997. Sailor Moon S was dubbed three years later so these characters didn’t have official names yet.
I love this scene. Sailor Moon has no plan. She has no reason to believe she will survive this. Chibiusa is in trouble so she leaps to what is likely certain death on the off chance that she can save her. It embodies what Sailor Moon is about.
