Premiering in 1995, Sailor Moon swept the U.S. with her battle against the Negaforce. Lovesick schoolgirl by day, daring crime fighter by night, Sailor Moon gave teenage girls a new and exciting role model. Based upon the manga created by Takeuchi Naoko, the anime series features a milder version of Serena (Sailor Moon) and gang. Still, Serena remains the ever-whining "crybaby", appearing somewhat shallow and.. well... weak. Even so, accompanied by the mystical (and talking) cat, Luna, Serena discovers she is, in fact, Princess Serena and can wield the power of the Moon. Her cohorts - Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus -- appear within the first 50 episodes and compliment Serena's whining with courage, intellect and good ole fashioned moxie. Later episodes include Sailor Pluto, Sailor Uranus, Sailor Neptune and Sailor Saturn.Cartoon Network, the show's last network, pulled the series from its line-up in 2002, despite protests and an online campaign to keep the show running. ADV, it seems, is now taking the next step.ADV confirms that episodes currently in retail outlets are available "while supplies last". Grab your coat... I'm driving.
