Description

Chibi Usa's sickly friend Hotaru isn't just Sailor Saturn, Deity of Destruction. She's also possessed by Master Pharaoh 90. Facing this cataclysmic power will be impossible - unless Sailor Moon can unite the powers of every Guardian of the Solar System. Then, when the moon eclipses the sun, a mystical unicorn begs for help. An elaborate ship floats through the sky, and Usagi and Chibi-Usa have trouble seeing eye to eyea.

This new edition of Sailor Moon features-
- An entirely new, incredibly accurate translation!
- Japanese-style, right-to-left reading!
- The original Japanese character names!

Story Locale-Tokyo, Japan

Series Overview-Usagi Tsukino is a normal girl until she meets up with Luna, a talking cat, who tells her that she is Sailor Moon. As Sailor Moon, Usagi must fight evils and enforce justice, in the name of the Moon and the mysterious Moon Princess. She meets other girls destined to be Sailor Senshi (Sailor Scouts), and together, they fight the forces of evil!

Reviews

-With its whimsical sense of fashion, thrilling adventure and complex backstory, Sailor Moon was like little else young girls had ever before seen on television, and miles above anything American animators were offering them. The anime led to interest in the manga, which in turn became the sort of success that made the bookstore market sit up and take notice. Scratch a modern-day manga fangirl, and you're likely to find someone who watched Sailor Moon when she was young.- -The Comics Journal
