Customer Reviews

Love it

This is a good volume of Bishoujo Senshi Sailormoon Manga (Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon comics). The story line is where Sailor Moon kills the Ayakashi sisters after they kidnapped all her friends. Only Sailor Venus remains after being saved by Sailor Moon who killed the last sister that tried to kidnap her. Sailor Venus decides to help Sailor Moon travel to the future to save Sailors Mars, Mercury and Jupiter. On their way they are helped by the mysterious Sailor Pluto. I loved this book very much which is why I gave it 5 stars

Sailor Moon Vol. 5 Rox!

Sailor Moon kills the last of the Four Sisters of Deception, Avery(that is changed in the tv show, and the sisters live), but the three scouts(Mercury,Mars, and Jupiter) that the Dark Moon captured are still gone(another thing changed for tv). Bunny, Darien, and Mina confront Chibi-usa(Rini) about what she knows. She tells them that she's from the future, and Sailor Moon, Sailor Venus, and Tuxedo Mask decide to go back to the thirtieth century with her. On the way they meet the forbidden Sailor Pluto, who tries to kill Sailor Moon, until Chibi-Usa(who Pluto calls Small Lady)tells her to stop. Pluto reveils that Chibi-Usa is a Princess,too. Once in the thirtieth century, our heros are attacked by to Dark Moon flunkies, Chiral and Achiral, and Sailor Moon finds out her powers wont work in this time period. Tuxedo Mask and Venus save the day. Then they all meet Tuxedo Mask's future self, or his soul anyway, who tells them that Chibi-Usa is Bunny and Darien's future daughter, and what happened to the moon kingdom. Luna and Artemis meet their future daughter, Diana(who is sooo cute it's a crime, and is left out of the tv show). Then Sailor Moon is captured by the Dark Moon. In the end there's a extra little story called "Rini's Picture Diary" about Chibi-Usa's school experience.

Comment on The 1st American Manga

I love Sailor Moon. I started with the TV show, so when I tried to read the Manga with the names like Usagi and Mamorou it was kinda hard to understand. This is better for me because it has the names from the TV show. It has a way better plot and totally different story. It isn't as corny as the TV show, and it is pretty good morally. (You can tell this is good because It is waaaaaay better than the TV show, and I LOVE the Tv show :)

Enter Sailor Pluto

This is the fifth book in the regular Sailor Moon series (not Sailor Moon SuperS). I am fairly biased, but I have to say that it was very good. There is so much stuff in the manga that never was in the cartoon, and this manga in particular has some interesting details which I won't spoil, of course. I would definitely recommend this one; for all the Rini fans out there, there is one whole section devoted to her. It's pretty cute. The storyline is great, and it introduces one of the most mysterious scouts...Sailor Pluto.

Sailor Moon Manga (this book) is better than Anime (tv show)

I don't know about everyone else, but i like the manga a whole lot better than the anime. The relationship between Darien and Bunny (Serena) is so much more romantic and everything is alot cooler. I'm not saying the Anime is bad, I'm just saying the Manga is better. If you are a Sailor Moon fan, even just the tiniest bit, you must get this series!
