Which is great cos Sailor Moon was out of print so the Manga is ridiculously expensive on ebay and its badly translated. :p

    The world imploded and we're back to the 90s now are we?

    I hear the japanese version isn't quite as cheesy. Maybe this won't be a bad thing.

    Hehe the dub turned up the cheese level to over 11..but the japanese wasn't innocent with the cheese level. :p

    I'm almost a little afraid to ask what this means.

    The dub made the two Sailor Soldiers Neptune and Uranus cousins instead of girlfriends to explain why there always together...but they still flirted a lot due to bad editing.

    Is it in original reading order? I can't find where it says in the article.

    Yh the first will come out then the second will come out 2 months after ect till the 12th. They condensed all 18 into 12 and the 3 Codenamed Sailor V into 2.

    EDIT
    Unless you mean if the book will be in the japanese style :p then yh it wont be flipped to match western books but keep in the original japanese format.

    Yeah, I meant the second of these two. I wasn't sure how to phrase it. I know in the old days they used to mirror manga to realise it for western audiences, and well, I was making sure that kind of insanity wasn't still going on :P

    I don't think any translated manga does that these days.
