So I guess they're saying July for the new Sailor Moon.
Skeptical until it's actually out.

I was hoping it would still somehow get released this month...oh, well. Hopefully it'll actually come out this time.
So many more months, though...

July is my birthday month, so that'd be a great present if it actually does come out...
That would just be way too sudden.. No way they'd release this month after not releasing any promotional material whatsoever.
I still kinda secretly hoped, though.

I remember the manga re-release being announced the day right before my birthday. Best birthday present ever.
Still waiting on a new re-release of the anime, though. The DVD prices are too ridiculous.
Well, I think PGSM came out a week after they announced it, so...heh.

There's a bunch of other mugs, too (perhaps not as cute, though): http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&field-keywords=Sailor Moon mug

That better be one expensive show with all those marketing bucks they're raking in. I've never seen anything like it.

Coffee with Sailor Mercury's company doesn't come cheap. She's gotta pay for her classes and books somehow.

Oh hey that Sailor Mercury mug looks pretty cool, wonder how mu..
Godddaaaammmnnnittt.... >_< I guess I'll have to settle for Moon or Venus.

Her mom doesn't know she's Sailor Mercury!
Moon is $200. :/
That HobbyDojo seller is charging way too much for their listings. The rest are under $20.
Anyway, how about some good ol' Toonami Sailor Moon stuff?

Don't like to double post, but I felt this was worth a bump: New Sailor Moon Anime's Producer: Not Remaking 1st Anime
It's starting over from scratch, adapting the manga.

Toonami thread people don't think SM is fit for Toonami. HATERS GONNA HATE.
That's a lie and you know it. The one guy who loves to argue about how crazy popular anime wasn't that popular is more or less the only person saying it.
Schadenfreude and GMN were saying it too.
Yes the same fanbase that begs for DBZ every month and tunes in at 5:00AM (now 5:30!) to watch Inuyasha has somehow "outgrown" Sailor Moon. Ridiculous.

Oh god the mug with the chibi sailor scouts. Crush it and inject it in my veins.
Also, yay for finally having a date. I'm a little worried about having the director of One Piece, but I'm staying cautiously optimistic. Can't wait till we get a trailer.

The new series is a (straight?) adaptation of the manga. I guess we shall see if this is a FMA: Brotherhood or Hunter x Hunter. Either way no filler garbage, hopefully. (Take that Hito.

)While I like the manga's storyline it doesn't really have any room to breathe for characterization which is what made the anime so special. I dont mind if it keeps true to the mangas story, but I hope at least its padded out so the characters just dont show up and are killed like the manga did at times.

It's fascinating that they are letting someone with such little experience write the show.
I haven't read the manga. It was just a jab at Hito, as indicated by my edit.

I already posted about that, but no one seemed to noticed. Heh.
Anyway, I'm interested to see how the adaption ends up...and whether or not they'll change the artstyle to match the manga more. I'd also like to see a bit of Codename: Sailor V throw in there. Maybe some of the side stories...
I need to finish buying the manga...I actually haven't started reading it yet, despite having bought the first volume of the re-release back on release date just a little over two years ago. I guess I kinda wanted to collect it all before I started reading. Or maybe I'm just lazy. I don't know. Hah.

Shit, sorry.
Hitokage hasnt even shown up here yet.
Get the manga then! I read the whole thing at once during the summer.

It's cool. Maybe people will notice the news now. Hah.
I have the first half of it (1-6) and all of Codename: Sailor V. I've been tempted to order the box set that has 7-12 in it so I could finish it up in one go. Since I have a lot of Amazon credit, it'd cost me about the same as just getting one volume at regular price. The only reason I haven't ordered it yet is because I'm also tempted to get the S.H. Figuarts figures. Hah.

I was wondering about that. I hope the lack of manga coverage isn't why, I know he(?) loves the manga.

I was under the impression he liked the anime and maybe live action better.

I can't help but think it would be a lot better if it didn't have the silly sentai shenanigans, though that is part of the charm in a sordid kind of way.
The drama/characters are great though. My biggest complaint is Minako. Her being a sad character really doesn't add anything. Could have easily just thrown in Hotaru instead of performing character assassination.

I'm glad there's at least a nice small group of fans here. My coworker was drooling at the mugs today, I showed her a picture and she just freaked out at how cute they were.
