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.
Sailor Moon #11 This book is mostly about Luna, Sailor Moon's pet cat. But all the Sailor Scouts are in it (except Saturn.) They are Usagi (Bunny), Minako (Mina), Ami (Amy), Rei (Raye), Makoto (Lita), Rini, Haruka, Michiru, and Setsuna. Artemis is also in this book. I think Diana is, too. Luna meets a man named Kakoru. He finds an ice crystal, but it keeps growing and a monster and things called Ice Dancers try to kill him. Sailor Moon/Usagi meets his girlfriend. The Sailor Scouts fight the monster and the Ice Dancers. There is also another story in the back about Rei. Usagi, Ami, and Makoto are also in it. This is one of my favorite Sailor Moon manga books, but the first story has nothing to do with the books before it. The second story takes place right after they meet Makoto.
A Seperate Sailormoon Masterpiece In my opinion, this is the best Sailormoon book Takeuchi did. I love Stars and all the other series, but this one was just in another field of excellence.
It begins with the manga version that was eventually turned into the S movie. It has more detail and less action scenes than the movie did, which I think is better. It concentrates a lot more on the Luna/Kakeru aspect than the fact that Princess Kaguya (what Kakeru named the enemy) is trying to freeze Earth. The two aspects of it fit together nicely though. The only problem I had with it was that they were having a birthday party for Makoko (Lita) and Mina, whose birthdays are over a month apart.
The other part is a backstory about Rei. This is what got me immediately hooked to this manga and made me read it again and again. It happens before they meet Minako (meaning I guess they didn't meet her till after April). It has Usagi (Bunny) and Ami meeting Rei as she gets a birthday gift from a guy who has a crush on her. They get her a popular music box and find out she has a dinner with her father. It turns out that Rei's mother died, and because her father was in politics, she decided to move in with her grandfather. Rei and her father's assisstant (and possible successor) are supposedly "kindred spirits". I don't want to give away the ending, but just know that it is BEAUTIFUL and you will want to read it over and over again. Its a nice backstory on Rei, and I, who had prefered anime Rei over her manga counterpart, had a great deal more respect for her.
I hope you'll take a look at this manga and consider buying it, it's definitely worth the money.
What are you waiting for? ORDER IT!!!! Do I really have to say that this woman's artwork is gorgeous? No, I don't think so. In this book, Bunny, who's Sailor Moon, helps Luna-her cat advisor from planet Mau- have her Christmas wish. Luna falls in love with an astronaut named Kakeru. However, there are more than a few problems. 1:She's a talking cat, he's human. 2. He's in love with his childhood friend Himeko. 3. He found a crystal falling from a comet he discovered, and it's sort of draining his life force. 4. In a thousand years, Artemis-another cat advisor-and Luna live in Crystal Tokyo with their daughter Diana. If Luna doesn't stick with Artemis, Diana won't exist. 5. Princess Snow Kaguya is trying to freeze the Earth. Not your average love triangle, is it? There's also a great bonus story at the end about Hino Rei, Sailor Mars. It happens when the senshi were first finding each other, and it really helps you get a better look at Rei's personality. I love Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon.
Heartwarming This book has love,comedy,and action all entwined together in one story. I love how it has Luna as the main character and how it shows no matter who you are you can always fall in love. And just because you're diffrent it does'nt mean you don't have a chance at love. Also the story about Rei in the back is so sad and sweet it made me cry.
