In case you don't follow me on Twitter, or you do, and I have no idea what all the RT-ing and inhuman screams of delight are about, the shit just got real.
I don't just get new/alternate canon with the arrival of
Sailor Moon Crystal. Oh no. I get completely remastered and freshly translated/subtitled re-release of old skool canon too.
FUCK YEAH
VIZ MEDIA Not that I'm desperate for a better anime adaptation of the manga (Crystal), or quality Sailor Stars, or to replace my dying VKLL fansubs on VHS, or decent icon source. Nope. And I'm totally not trying to figure out how to download it straight from Neon Alley or Hulu so that I don't have to wait for the Blu-Ray AND WHY CAN'T I JUST PREORDER IT NOW DAMMIT I CANNOT WAIT SMALL-ME WHO USED TO TAPE THE DUB OFF CARTOON NETWORK EVERY DAY NEEDS THIS NOOOOOOOOW.
...I also may have already gotten some small children hooked on this TODAY. Within 24 hours of it going online.
It's available now on both Hulu and
Neon Alley, for the Americans, and the awesomesauce
daimonhost already found rips available
online. And if you haven't read the manga yet, there's newly-translated (gorgeous) editions from Kodansha at your LCS, or the older translations available for free
on the interwebs.
AHEM. We now return you to your regularly scheduled week.
