From the flaps on the book- The guardians in sailor suits return in this definitive edition of the greatest magical girl manga of all time! Features all-new cover illustrations by creator Naoko Takeuchi, a glittering holographic coating, an extra-large size, premium paper, French flaps, and a newly-revised translation!
Teenager Usagi is not the best athlete, she's never gotten good grades, and, well, she's a bit of a crybaby. But when she meets a talking cat, she begins a journey that will teach her she has a well of great strength just beneath the surface and the heart to inspire and stand up for her friends as Sailor Moon! Experience the Sailor Moon manga as never before in these extra-long editions (about 300 pages each).
Review- So much happens in this volume. We get so much plot and everyone's basic back story from the Silver Millennium, and we met Sailor Venus and the Sailor Scouts defeat the first major bad guy, Queen Beryl. Usagi and Mamoru remember who they were and how they died the first time. The action is very paced with a lot happening as Takeuchi wraps up the first major arc for the series. The ending is someone claiming to the Usagi, who is looking for the Silver Crystal, holds a gun at Usagi and Mamoru. This arc was very interesting with so much going for it, I can understand why Sailor Moon became a classic, just from this first story arc. The art is just beautiful, in this edition there are many full color pieces, that add so much to the series and really shows off Takeuchi's beautiful art style. I am looking forward to reading the next volume and seeing what is going to happen to Usagi next.
I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
