10 out 10 The True Sailor Moon Excellent! 10 out 10! The true story of Sailor Moon! If you're into Manga and Anime, I would recommend this manga 100%. Sailor moon is full or Romance, Adventure, Drama and More. If you like sailor moon you might also like Revolutionary girl Utena another Manga written by Naoko Takeuchi.
Get it while you can! I am so sad that Sailor moon products are out of print. This is an amazing story. I love the Manga and the Anime. 200 episodes wasnt enough!
Another volume This is a wonderful volume. Bunny/Darien, Usagi/Mamoru, Serena/Darien are my favorite couple. I loved both the Japanese and English versions. The Japanese version is my favorite and the English version is great. I use both the Japanese names, Usagi and Mamoru and the English names Bunny and Darien. In this volume, Darien discovers that something is changing. When he discovers a shadow in his lungs, he doesn't want to burden Bunny. Bunny becomes worried. Darien and Bunny are boyfriend and girlfriend and eternal lovers. When Bunny discovers the truth about Darien, he tells her what he was going through. It is revealed about his destiny and the truth about him. Darien tells Bunny he doesn't want her to catch what he has. Bunny tells Darien that she will share his pain and that his pain is her pain and she will cure him. Bunny hugs Darien tightly and promises to protect him. Find out more in this volume.
A different look at SuperS If any of you have seen the anime, you can tell it is VERY different, but in a good way. You should definitely see these mangas if you want to know the original SuperS. Here's a preview:
SuperS 2 contains 3 seperate story lines. The actual SuperS story line, and the three Exam Battles.
In the SuperS story line, Jupiter struggles with not being able to transform, while Chibi-Usa and Usagi worry about Mamoru and the fact that he's sick, and coughing up black blood. Venus is also struggling to transform, and feels useless as the supposed leader of the inner senshi. She doesn't even notice Artemis's obvious love for her, though his daughter does.
The three exam battles are as followed: Lita's (Makoto's) Melancholy, Ami's First Love, and Rei and Mina's School Girl Battle. Each of them concentrate on the girls efforts to just be themselves, which trying to be senshi as well.
In Lita's, she struggles through her exam studies, thinking she isn't cut out for high school. It also gives you some cute facts about her, like why she's scared of airplanes.
Ami's First Love in the manga was actually better than the OAV (which I didn't like). Though I'm still not a big fan of it, it was cute.
Rei and Mina's School Girl Battle was my favorite part of this book. This so should have been animated. Mina is jealous of Rei because she goes to a school with an elevator system, where she doesn't have to take entrance exams. It lets you in on a lot of things about Mina and Rei, and shows you that they are best friends, something that was missing in the anime. Plus, the end was REALLY funny and can always be refered to for a laugh.
Sailor Moon Super S 2 : Well Worth the Money Sailor Moon Super S vol. 2 is very good. The book has beautiful art. Takeuchi's art gets more detailed with each successive volume. Readers are treated to the breathtaking Helios in his human form, and a glimpse of Artemis' unrequited love for Venus. The main theme is that a dark, malicious sickness is weakening Darien and tearing him and Bunny apart.
SMS vol. 2 is packed with more extras at the end than in previous volumes of the SM series. Naoko Takeuchi gives us a glimpse of the school lives of Ami, Lita, Raye, and Mina. These three short stories are a refreshing break from the dark plot of the book. My hands-down favorite is "Lita's Melancholy." I truly felt I was in Lita's world. I related to her procastination-cleaning tactics, her love of herbal teas and pastries, and her desire to forgo all her responsibilities and stuff her face with Chinese scones and brownies (I have never heard of a Chinese scone, though. Scones are British, as far as I know)!(...)
