Review

"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

5.0 out of 5 stars Glimpse of pre-Sailor Moon Feb 26 2013
By Sarah TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
I love this manga! It was really interesting to see what helped the amazing mangaka, Naoko Takeuchi, begin the story of Sailor Moon.
Sailor V was the original Sailor Scout until Naoko Takeuchi began developing other characters and made Sailor Moon the central character. No wonder there are so many similarities between Sailor Moon and Sailor V including that of their looks.

Sailor V was discovered by Artemis and was an independent Sailor Scout until she reunited with the rest of the Sailor Scouts much later.
It was interesting to see that Usagi Tsukino admired Sailor V, and watched Sailor V on the news headlines, even before she knew that she was a Sailor Soldier herself.

Another interesting thing to watch out for in this manga is how the Sailors cross paths with each other unknowingly, how they hang out at the same arcade, and walk past each other like stangers on the road.

The only negative thing about this manga is that it's too short (only 2 books)!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Prequal to Sailor Moon but every bit as cool Dec 2 2012
By Sakura Yamato
Format:Paperback
I'm a huge fan of Sailor Moon but I had no idea that Sailor V was the original Sailor Scout and the prequel to Sailor Moon until a friend told me about it. So I was super excited to get this series (vol.1 & 2) and I was not disappointed. Naoko Takeuchi merges the stories together very well, and you even see glimpses of Usagi (Sailor Moon) and others in the second volume of this series. It's very humorous and a little less serious that Sailor Moon, but a great read with fantastic art. I really enjoyed it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Happy to have this on my shelf! Oct 23 2011
By Shauna TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. Like the Sailor Moon Volume 1 re-release, the book itself is attractive and shiny on the covers, and has a couple of color pages at the beginning. As expected, the artwork is gorgeous, and for sound effects both the original Japanese characters AND the English translation are present. This is done in an unobtrusive way that does not clash with the drawings.
