Sailor moon was a shoujo manga originally published in 1992 by Naoko Takeuchi since then it has been copied and its formula has been used in a countless number of shoujo mangas. Its republication has long been awaited in Japan, North America and Italy. Back in its time a modified version of the Anime played along side Dragon Ball-Z. This is what I personally fell in love with has a five year old. However, because they were editing something that was meant for a 14+ demographic into something for all ages, the fifth installment , Sailor Stars, could not be published because the content could not be made into something for all ages. After the Anime stopped the manga and merchandise left with it. After a long wait however the manga was being released first in Japan, then Italy and now North America. The complete twelve volumes will be released bimonthly. The first issue was released September 13. The next issue is coming November 15. Although I was planning to do a full review of Sailor Moon in this blog post, it has come to my attention that that I should be reviewing the released issue and not my old one as the art work as been redone and there is better translation. I will pick it up ASAP and write a review. Until then follow this link to Chapters to buy an edition:http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Sailor-Moon-1-Naoko-Takeuchi/9781935429746-item.html?ikwid=sailor+moon&ikwsec=Home
