Sailor Moon Abridged

TeamFourStar, best known for their popular Dragon Ball Z Abridged web series, have released the first episode of Sailor Moon Abridged! This show is not simply a shortened version of Sailor Moon but rather a sort of condensed edited down parody of the show. This series uses original character names but voices often resemble those of the original 90s English dub of Sailor Moon. You can check out the first episode on the TeamFourStar YouTube channel. It is also embedded below.

This is not the first Sailor Moon Abridged series. From 2007 to 2012 there was a popular Sailor Moon Abridged series by Megami33 who returns as the voice of Luna in this new TeamFourStar version. The YouTube channel which originally hosted that version no longer has the episodes however you can get them on The Internet Archive. There have been other incarnations of Sailor Moon Abridged but this seems to be the most popular one.

Parody is fair use under US copyright law. These videos are clearly fair use and so anyone making a copyright complaint against them is not behaving in good faith. Of course YouTube is dumb so we will see if these episodes remain online.

New art by Naoko Takeuchi featuring Mamoru and Usagi

A Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cafe is currently open in Japan. This special cafe will only be open for the months of November and December and will feature some Sailor Moon art. This includes some new art made by Sailor Moon’s creator Naoko Takeuchi. This image features Mamoru holding Usagi who’s wearing a Princess Serenity style dress while holding her Moon Stick and a heart shaped jewel. The Moon Stick she’s holding is unlike the one in the manga or 90s anime. It somewhat resembles the Moon Stick from the live action series in that the Moon itself is a large gem, but it isn’t identical with the spherical gem between the handle and crescent.

There will be other art featured at this cafe including colour versions of some manga pages which will be on display. You can check out samples of that art at the official Sailor Moon site. File folders featuring this art will be available for purchase at the cafe.

Shall we use this image as the launching point for rampant speculation that a new season of the live action Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon series is in the works? Why not?
