My white whale! I very excited to purchased this book. I noticed when I received this book seemed a lot "newer" than I expected.
I received it in the mail and naturally two days later, it was revealed bootlegs of the book were created and released. I have determined this book in fact not an original one. I could choose to be really upset but instead I'm going to focus on the idea that I at least have a copy of this book. I have no plans to purchase another copy due to all the bootlegs now available of this book.
Usagi's hair is a bit more yellow and the spacing for the letters are off.

October 1992 Animage Interview
Lunar Logs is a weekly series featuring full translations of interviews with Ms. Takeuchi and others — such as the directors, writers, voice cast, and more — responsible for making Sailor Moon into the massively popular franchise we know it as today. Though not every interview will directly address or even mention Sailor Moon, I find it an interesting look into the…
An AMV focusing on Rei Hino/Sailor Mars from Sailor Moon to her image song "Flame Sniper", sung by her VA Michie Tomizawa. You can see the translated lyrics here. This AMV includes the completely cheesy and ridiculous English intro I adore.
This is probably my best Sailor Moon image song AMV and I think it was the last AMV I ever made. That's because it's actually a partially remade version of an older AMV! I think I did it for a contest @keyofjetwolf was holding back in the day.
The original version had quite a few views (so much so that it's preserved on Wayback), but it had a bunch of timing issues, which is why I did this remake. And somehow Toei didn't destroy it! Which I'm glad about. It's a jam and it was fun syncing all of Rei's badass moments to it.

Which sailor mars do you prefer? Reserved, elegant one from manga or fiery hotheaded one from 90s anime?
The elegant one from the manga. I'd love the 90's anime a whole lot more if she weren't so unnecessarily mean to Sailor Moon, who's also, like, the fucking princess she has sworn to protect.
And the fact her seiyuu, Michie Tomizawa, has performed in Housekeeping Hamster Ebichu, doesn't help one bit.
She was Ebichu's master/owner, and would often mistreat her pet. Ebichu herself was voiced by Kotono Mitsuishi, Usagi's seiyuu.
This is a random book that was inserted with the AR scripts. I have no idea what this is.
It features a bunch of 90s animes I haven't seen.
Why is Sailor Moon listed as File - 1 Secret Service?
Inner Senshi and Sailor Moon.
Miracle Girls. Twins with super powers. Michie Tomizawa and Kotono Mitsuishi starred in one episode where they actresses in a television show that were superheroes.
During the production of the original 1992 Sailor Moon anime the voice actresses for the five Inner Senshi (Kotono Mitsuishi, Aya Hisakawa, Michie Tomizawa, Emi Shinohara, and Rica Fukami) formed a group called Peach Hips which performed several songs from the anime.*
Astonishingly, the group never performed Moonlight Densetsu, the defining theme for the original anime/the Sailor Moon franchise as a whole.
That is...with the exception of a bonus feature attached to Vol. 9 of the Sailor Moon Laser Discs. The performance can be viewed here:
youtube
As you can tell the sound quality is unfortunately not great.
However, a higher quality version of the performance also exists in another video which presents the full bonus feature:

I have used my amateur sound editing skills to extract the performance as an mp3 so that you can all enjoy the song as performed by the original voice actresses.
*The most famous of which was probably 'Moon Revenge', the theme song for the first Sailor Moon film, Sailor Moon R The Movie (aka Sailor Moon R: The Promise of the Rose for you DiC fans).

In the Sailor Moon manga/anime; Sailor Mars [Rei] (voiced in Japanese by Michie Tomizawa and in English by Katie Griffin, Emilie Barlow, and Cristina Vee) is one of the main characters. In addition to a bow and arrow, she is the Sailor Scout that uses fire powers; which she gained as a skill from being a shrine priestess. Rei has very long straight black hair with a purple tinge to it and deep purple eyes. When transformed, she wears the traditional sailor scout uniform in white, red, and purple. It’s finished with golden star earrings, a red choker, white elbow-length gloves with red cuffs, and red pumps.
