Sailor Moon 11

I’m sorry. I didn’t…intend to hurt you…
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, V. 11 by Naoko Takeuchi🌟🌟🌟🌟💔🎤🌙💫UGHHH. The last two books in this manga mess me up. The Sailor Star Lights are just so damn sad. This book in particular is mainly tragedy after tragedy after tragedy. But Chibi-Chibi finally appears! And we also get to see Chibi Usa in the future, along with her family, actually just living it up, which I think is pretty neat. Neptune cracks me up. Saturn brings me joy. (Ironically, too.) And Usagi—sniffles everywhere. As much as I enjoy Stars, it’s such a quick arc that it can feel rushed and a bit insane (but I also think that has a lot to do with Usagi’s state of mind). For the first half of the volume though, it’s really neat to see how every character has settled into a calm lifestyle, but as usual, that never lasts for long. A new enemy appears…and then the Sailor Star Lights come in.Seiya is a fan favorite, but I really think this volume doesn’t cover enough of Seiya for me to love her just yet. (The next volume is a different story.) In fact, I really love Seiya in this volume just because of Haruka’s reactions. (Uranus.) Haruka in particular is a lot like Seiya, which makes sense considering they are all guardians but in separate sections of the Milky Way. This volume really makes you want to dream up of all the other guardians and possibilities out there…which brings me to my next point. I LOVE that the guardians are the enemies in the final arc of Sailor Moon. I love reading about how all the “lesser” guardians are jealous and want their own planet. I love the idea of these “protectors” finally snapping and wanting to be the ones that are protected. It adds a flawed dynamic to the series I wish Takeuchi could’ve explored for ten volumes. But alas, we have two. Two great ones. (And one left.) I’m going to cry. Onto the last volume!~SATRecommended to: Sailor Moon fans (must read first 10 to understand this one), but you might enjoy Sailor Moon if you love female superheroes, galaxy-themed villains and mythology, and cheesy romance. This volume in particular also deals with severe denial and delusions.Favorite panel: Seiya and Usagi: “I’m sorry. I didn’t…intend to hurt you…” Not only is it emotionally tense but it’s a moment of awakening for Usagi to face her trauma and fears. It’s the breaking point of the arc.

The saga is almost over
Like every other kid in the 90s, Sailor Moon was my first introduction to anime when it appeared on Cartoon Network. This is my first time to actually read the series for the first time. I've given Sailor Moon and Naoko Takeuchi a much greater appreciation. Honestly now that I've read most of the books, I prefer the manga over the anime. This volume was especially good. Leaves a huge cliff hanger at the end so I can't wait to get volume 12 and complete the series. Sailor Moon has been a part of my life for years. Since I was six and I'm so glad that it made a comeback. I want my daughter(s) (hopefully I'll have ONE) to know about Sailor Moon and read the books as well.Volume 11 continues out of the Dream Arch and into the Stars so I'm excited to see what happens next and the showdown between Usagi and Galaxia. Moonie 4 life :)

Perfect.
I had to return the first because the cover was damaged, but it was super easy to do, and the replacement arrived damage-free, so I'm very happy. Everything is in good condition now!

I cannot get over how beautiful the art is.
I cannot really go into much detail without spoiling anything especially since this is so far into the series, but it is amazing how things start coming to a head so quickly.

Gift for our granddaughter's collection
This adds to our granddaughter's collection of the Sailor Moon series, except for #12 and the two "short story" books coming out later this year, which is on her wish list. I was a fan of the original series way back when, and I thought she would like it, and the new series has been done rather well, and does justice to the original, and she does like the story line and the action. But then she also likes a lot of anime that is along these lines of story and action.

A wonderful volume to a wonderful series
A wonderful volume to a wonderful series. It has amazing art, characters, & plot line. I recommend it fully to anyone who loves anything shoujo. Also to anyone coming over from the anime, it is more straight to the point then the 90's anime was. But it still has its own way of being amazing.

Cliffhanger!
I have been a huge Sailormoon fan since I was a kid, but since they never released these issues in paperback before I feel like I am getting to read all new stuff! This book has so far been amazing, introducing new characters, new problems and the adorable Chibi Chibi! I love it. It leaves you hanging desperate for the next book to be released already!

Brilliant!
This product was in perfect condition upon arrival, it was packaged securely and arrived on-time, no damage whatsoever. First-class delivery.I grew up watching Sailor Moon on TV as a child, I actually first started reading the manga online, then when they started releasing it in the shops, I bought them like a flash! I'd actually been waiting for over 3 months for this volume to come out in the shops, but eventually grew impatient and found that it'd already been released on here and did not hesitate to order it right away!The only MINOR negative is (not just with this volume, but all the other's as well) that sometimes the translations can be a little different or 'off' at times, Usagi is sometimes called by that, or Bunny or even Serena, luckily I know who is who, but for first-time readers it can be a tiny bit off-putting.I would suggest this to all the graphic novel/manga enthusiasts, Sailor Moon is a classic must-have, it definitely is one of the first few iconic manga to inspire the magical-girl genre and in my opinion is a lot better than the anime.Bearing in mind that in some scenes you need to have a little patience with the flow of the story and characters, towards the 9th volume I start to feel the storyline is rather rushed and focused a bit too heavily upon Chibi-Usa, which I've never been fond of as a character-in fact, she's probably my least favourite character.Up until volume 8 or 9, the romance between Usagi and Mamoru is at times very sweet, only that fizzles out a little after the 9th or 10th volume, focusing more on the drama and fantasy.The one thing I DO love in the manga-in specific-is that Queen Serenity/Goddess Selene is mentioned on and off throughout the story-something which they did NOT do in the anime and was disappointed with (a definite waste of a solid background character), but just when you're going to forget about her, she pops up in a flashback or is mentioned once more, it is a glimpse into her and Princess Serenity's past lives.In volume 7 or 8 the lives/wishes/dreams of the inner-senshi is really looked into, which I think is a nice touch, it was finally great to read and get to know more about the supporting characters, it was a nice dynamic in comparison to seeing Usagi's POV.Something that does irritate me however is that Chibi-Usa is in love with her dad in the past and has been throughout most of the manga...I just...no, I'm sorry, but it really bothers me, simply because he's already taken with Usagi and incest? Really Japan? Didn't know your standards of morality had dropped that far! It just...I dunno, I can see why Usagi gets jealous, the manga after a while does focus a lot more on Chibi-Usa and her relationship with her parents in the past as opposed to focusing more on Usagi and her love with Mamoru. I don't recall seeing him and Usagi going on a date alone...ever!Another thing that bothers me is that Mamoru is pretty much the only guy that is consistent with the storyline and has any 'power', there are other guys that pop up in the manga on and off, but Mamoru is the one you'll see the most of.Finally, be prepared to be bombarded with information, because there's a lot of it, there are SO many evil characters/background characters/supporting characters, most of which are forgotten about once they're no longer of any 'use'.Don't misunderstand, Sailor Moon is a wonderful manga-especially the first season! Up until the 3rd volume it is-in my opinion-an epic tale of drama, romance, fantasy and action-a true fairytale/magical girl story.I definitely recommend buying into the series if you haven't done so already, this being the second-to-last volume of the entire series is along with the last volume a pretty good ending to a very decent series.Not everyone will agree and it certainly has it's flaws, but I believe that if the relaunch of the new Sailor Moon anime (in 2014 I believe) sticks as close to the manga as they say they are then I believe it'll be a re-awakening for the older generation like myself that grew up watching this on TV in the mornings, with any luck, it'll inspire a new generation into this manga and to just give it a chance.Definitely grab this volume while you can! :)
