Sailor Moon on Jeopardy

On a lighter note, Sailor Moon appeared on Jeopardy earlier this week. In the anime category, the $1600 question was: "This 'Lunar' Naoko Takeuchi creation is an example of a 'magical girl' given powers to save the world." It's always nice to see Sailor Moon in unexpected places!! See the screencap of the episode on Genvid.

Other Sailor Moon Sites

There has been quite a lot going on with other Sailor Moon websites lately, so I wanted to share some news about them here.

Our newest affiliate is the wonderful PGSM site Kirari-PGSM.net. It's definitely one of my favorite websites!!

Another affiliate of mine, Chibi Land, is celebrating the site's 7th anniversary! Congratulations! As part of the celebration, Chibi Jennifer (the webmistress) has created some adorable chibi dolls. Go check them out!

The always amazing MoonKitty.net continues to update regularly. Don't forget to subscribe to the RSS feed there!

I'll leave you now with another excellent site that I didn't know about before. I really like it! DM Sailor Moon Cards has excellent scans and lots of information about various Sailor Moon Cards.

Ooh la la! A new layout! I made this a while back, but just decided to put it on the site today. I think it is a bit more appropriate for summer!

I also updated the links page today by removing several sites that are now gone. I hate seeing so many good Sailor Moon sites go... but fortunately, there are still some excellent, large sites which are still updating!

Speaking updating... seems like I'm getting back into the groove of things, so I hope for more updates very soon. I am already working on some new Sailor Stars screencaps for you!

It seems like I haven't been updating, but I have been adding things here and there! I've been really busy lately due to work (and addiction to my Wii), but hopefully I'll be able to spend more time updating now.

A few weeks ago, I added 123 screencaps of Fighter Star Power, Maker Star Power, Star Gentle Uterus, and Star Sensitive Inferno. I also added 1,838 screencaps of Stars episodes 174-177.

Just yesterday, I added 88 screencaps of Dead Scream and Sailor Star Healer's transformation. I also added 2,228 screencaps of Stars episodes 178-182. There are some really good ones including the appearance of Galaxia, the Animamates, and ChibiChibi. I hope that you enjoy them, and I hope to update again very soon!

First of all... I'd like to say happy birthday, Sailor Neptune!

In other news, I've added even more Stars screencaps, if you can believe it! Episodes 170 through 173 are now available. I feel like I've been going through these very quickly in the past week, so I hope to have them all done pretty soon. Then I'll start work on the movies and specials!! I'm also working on providing screencaps of all of the senshi's various attacks and transformations, so don't worry: they'll all be available eventually. Today, I added the longer version of Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss and Star Serious Laser.

I've been doing some really small updates to information lately, probably a lot of things that people won't notice. There are too many and they're too insignificant to note here, so I'll just say thank you! to all the people who have pointed out minor typos and other things I needed to fix. It really helps a lot!! I've also been working on some more Stars screencaps, so I've added episode 168 and 169. I have also added screencaps of Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss and an additional set of images of Space Sword Blaster. I'll be adding more transformatons and attacks in the future!

Check this out: MoonPrism.com has an awesome cosplay section, where the site's owner (who is also a published author) has a great collection of cosplay items for sale. There are some great things such as Sailor Uranus's space sword, and various transformation wands... but what I really like is the fact that she has made some very nice tiaras! Definitely something worth looking into if you are interested in cosplay.

Good news for those of you waiting on screencaps: I've added 624 new screencaps from the opening and episode 167 of the Stars season! I'll be adding more soon, so please don't send me 100 emails asking when I'll add more. o.o Also, as I said in the last update, I've really been trying to update more information, so I've added a summary of episode 044. Of course, that means I've added or updated several pages dealing with information from that episode!

New Page: D Point

Updated Pages: Game Center Crown, Kunzite, Moon Kingdom, Moon Stick, Queen Beryl, Queen Metallia, Queen Serenity

You can now browse the profiles of the Senshi's friends and family members based on the order in which they appear. I've made this list in addtion to the long list on the regular friends/family page so that you can browse them a little more easily, and so that you can find a character without necessarily having to know their name. As I add more episode summaries, I will of course be updating this list!

I have also added several Russian MP3s for download, thanks to Inna! Inna was also kind enough to provide us with a complete list of the Russian episode titles. I have no idea what they say, but there they are! Thanks very much, Inna!

I'm back at episode summaries! Today I added a summary of episode 043 as well as information for all the entries that go along with it (such as the profile pages for Oniwabandana and Nana Asahina). I summarize the Japanese episodes, but don't forget that if you want amazing summaries of the dubbed episodes, you can find them on my affiliate site, Moonkitty.net! I've also made lots of minor changes to various pages, although I'm sure not many people will notice those so there's no point mentioning them all here. Mostly fixing things like typos and stuff.

I've really been concentrating more on updating information than on more screencaps lately. Sorry, guys, I know you're wanting more screencaps, but they'll be here when they're here. Just be patient! After last month's screencap frenzy, I needed a little break from them. I should be back at making those very soon, and I'll definitely be adding some Stars caps by the end of this month.

Sailor Moon Mentions:

I love the online community Gaia Online - I've been a member for years now, and I've always been a big fan! My username on there is BettyAnn (appropriately enough); message me any time! Back to the point, I was surprised (and thrilled!) to learn that their new Monthly Collectibles (items that can be purchased for $2.50) for February include a set that is obviously inspired by Sailor Moon! It's called the "Magical Schoolgirl" item, which is very generic (they often parody popular series without directly naming them), and you'll see similarities with Sailor Moon and other shoujo anime/manga. Highlights of the set include a uniform and bows that are a lot like the Senshi's, and hair very similar to ChibiUsa's or ChibiChibi's! How interesting! I definitely plan on getting these items as soon as I can.

For further reading, Genvid has transcribed an article from Bitch magazine which comparing the "girl power" of Sailor Moon vs. the Spice Girls. It's a very interesting read! The series is getting older, and not many people remember it. References are few and far between these days, so it's always refreshing to see new references to Sailor Moon.
