I can’t believe this! Viz Media pushed the release date back for Sailor Moon SuperS Part 1. It was set for release on April 10th. Now it won’t be out until April 24th. I am so angry about this. I was looking forward to it coming out on the 10th as well.

I’m so excited about Anime Matsuri, I’m so hopeful Chiaki Kon will reveal something regarding the movies. It has been so long, I miss Crystal with all his flaws.

@Justme Exactly! We know character development in crystal as a whole was an issue but these would have been such wonderful additions. Agree with Adam that they definitely break up the flow of the story line but especially in the older season that’s what I liked- I loved episodes that strayed from the Monster-of-the-Week formula (see Minako’s tragic love and the ski vacation/beach vacation episodes).

Thanks for looking into this. Looks like most retailers are listing the 24th now so that seems to be the current release date.

Oh yeah all of those would have made for great side stories. It probably just didn’t fit well into the TV series.

I hope the fact that there’s been a long wait is because they’re planning to release it in theatres! Haven’t heard anything from Viz at this point.

Oh ok. So they did move the release date after all. I wonder if Right Stuff is still going to be the 10th or will they change it in the next coming days as well.

True, I once hoped Crystal would adapt all the specials like Casablanca Memories, which would have go nice into the first season of Crystal, making the friendship between Usagi, Ami, and especially Rei and Makoto way more plausible, while fleshing out Rei, which was and still is the most glossed over character in the Crystal version of the story.

I just messaged Viz Media on Facebook to try and make sense out of this and I was told the street date was April 24th.

I was always so disappointed they never animated the rest of the exam battle series- The Melancholy of Mako-chan and more specifically Rei’s and Minako’s Girls School Battle…
