On the eve of the series' 20th anniversary, Takeuchi and
Kodansha Comics announced that a new serialized Sailor Moon anime is in the works to premiere summer 2013. Does this mean the lesbian relationship of
Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune won't be censored out of the new anime?
That
all depends on who buys the North America distribution rights, but it does justify
my recent decision to re-watch Sailor
Moon, and watch (some for the first time) its subsequent sequels.
That's: Sailor Moon, Sailor Moon R, Sailor
Moon R the Movie: Promise of the Rose, Sailor Moons S, Sailor
Moon S the Movie: Hearts in Ice,
Sailor Moon Super S, Sailor Moon
Super S: The Movie, and Sailor Stars. In that order. So,
expect blogs on each of these.
Obviously, I'll be talking about other things, because even I can get
too much 90s-era girl power anime; but, when I'm fighting evil by moonlight, or
winning love by daylight, this will be the song I hear.
No, seriously, you won't forget it. Twenty years later, I still can't.
