A Tribute To “Sailor Moon”

How much do you remember about this anime series that made everyone want to dress like a magic nautical schoolgirl? (Much to your parents' chagrin.)

If you were around in the early- to mid-'90s, you know that the Japanese anime cartoon, Sailor Moon, had a lot going for it — girls with magic powers; really cute outfits; and all the best words like "princess," "moon," "crystal," "heart," and "tuxedo." So, who was Sailor Moon? She said it herself most episodes: "I am Sailor Moon. The champion of justice. And I say on behalf of the moon, I shall right wrongs and triumph over evil and that means you!"

Of course, we know it's a bit more complicated than that...

Meet Serena Tsukino, a young teen who is really bad at math and kind of an airhead. Like most works of cinematic genius, this is the person who must save the world. Next to Serena is her friend Molly who has a very heavy Brooklyn accent for a Japanese schoolgirl.

This is Luna, a talking cat who reveals to Serena her hidden identity and acts as a spirit guide. She is wise and knows all the things.

So, basically, the world is going to end pretty much every day thanks to this bitch (and a bunch of other villains down the line). Sailor Moon's mission is to destroy this space skank and find the Moon Princess.
