Sailor Moon 1

Basically, I started reading this because 1) I remember how big Sailor Moon was when I was a kid, and 2) I needed a palate cleanser after reading volume 1 of Uzumaki (so I probably have this read date and start date wrong).

The manga was okay, but I know that I'm not the target audience. It's melodramatic and silly all at the same time - which is kind of what I needed after Vol. 1 of Uzumaki.

Gorgeous, charming, fun and funny; and some of the depictions of the villains are genuinely creepy, so it's winner for me.

It was so delightful to revisit Sailor Moon, since she was a big part of my childhood. I wasn't disappointed.

The translation notes in the back explaining what CDs and VHS tapes are... that made me feel ANCIENT though.

So excited about this English re-release of the manga. Sailor Moon was one my early passions in life (leading to my first website, a lot of fan fiction, online friends, etc.) and still good to revisit.
