Sailor Neptune & Sailor Uranus

As I've mentioned before, and recently, I love Sailor Moon.  It's one of those totally girly things that I just can't get enough of.  I mean, a bunch of girls that get along & can work as a team!  How much more mythical can you get?  Of course these girls have super powers, so that helps.  Seriously though, it's a great show about love & friendship & acceptance.  

The outer Sailor Soldiers are my absolute favorites.  They are older girls.  Haruka Tenoh & Michiru Kaioh or Sailor Uranus & Sailor Neptune especially.  After the end of Xena,  T& I really wanted to find another couple of bad ass chicks that kicked butt together.  These two were totally it!   Haruka rides a motorcycle & gets mistaken for a really cute guy by the younger scouts at first.  Whenever Haruka & Michiru show up anywhere not as Sailor Soldiers, this really elegant music plays, and the younger scouts are always awestruck.   Sailor Moon Super was INTENSE!  There's this whole episode where Sailor Uranus & Sailor Neptune get all shot up & are dying & Sailor Moon is bawling, and I'm bawling & T's bawling, and OMG guys!  You have to watch the entire Sailor Moon Super series.  For real.  

   

In the US dubs of Sailor Moon, these two were "cousins".  LMAO.  Um, yeah, they ain't cousins kids.  Just like Xena & Gabrielle weren't just "best friends".  LMAO.  Oh, America...making them cousins makes it really weird.  And wrong.  So wrong.  

Anyhoo, that's a whole 'nother issue in itself.  Right now over at Hot Topic.com and in their stores, they have really sweet Sailor Scout stuff including Haruka & Michiru stuff!  Belts & shirts!  SaWeet!  I bought T the Sailor Uranus one the day of her book signing at 50 Penn Place.  I'm going to get myself the Haruka one ASAP.  Right now hottopic.com has Buy one, get one for 50% off on all their non-clearanced T-shirts!

Even GoHastings.com has a Sailor Moon shirt!

It's like a Sailor Moon revival up in here!  Woo-hoo!

Hot Topic & Sailor Moon

I love me some Sailor Moon! When Xena went off the air, I quickly searched around for something, anything to take my mind off the painful ending of my hero. I had already become a huge Anime fan through shows like Gatchaman, Robotech, Starblazers, Project A-Ko and more. I can't remember what channel it was that started showing Sailor Moon, maybe Cartoon Network, but I was hooked.

Of course I'm a big original language subtitle kinda girl. No dubs for me. So once I decided I loved it, I was off in search of uncut, undubbed versions. I learned early on what America does to Anime & I knew Sailor Moon was better than what I was getting to see on American TV. I wasn't wrong. Especially when it came to Haruka & Michiru. T & I were on the edge of our seats & soaked in tears at one point. I'm not even kidding. Sailor Moon Super had us. 100%.



It's been a while since Sailor Moon has come & gone. I miss it. T & I started watching the series again a couple weeks ago. I realized I was missing the movies that come between each series. BAH! How did I do that?!? Then I remembered...I had them once. On VHS. Crap in a hat.



So I started looking around. That's when I discovered an exciting line of Sailor Moon apparel at Hot Topic. Yep, clothes, bags & belts all with the Pretty Sailor Soldier herself! Awesome sauce!



So, I am passing on the info to you. Sailor Moon at the Hot Topic. Get it quick because Hot Topic merch changes fast.
