The twice a month schedule for Sailor Moon Crystal is a rough one for fans of the series, but it’s that time again and a new episode has arrived to kick off the new year! There’s a lot going on with the Sailor Moon franchise in general lately as the classic series has had the first DVD/BD set arrive and there’s several new clips out to promote the second season and introduce more of the characters from there. Add in things about new replica items, Australian acquisitions and a little bit of fashion as well and it continues to be an exciting time to be a fan of this property.
Check out the details on what’s going on with Sailor Moon here!
Directed by Munehisa Sakai at Toei Animation with Yuji Kobayashi doing the scripts. Yuki Sako joined the team as the character designer, whose recent works include Majestic Prince. Yasuharu Takanashi is serving as the composer, having worked on some big franchise including Fairy Tail and Precure. Art direction is being done by Takashi Kurahashi and Yumi Hosaka, both of which worked on Gatchaman Crowds and Mononoke. The soundtrack is set to be produced by King Records, which means we should be getting plenty of clips and samples of everything once they start to the marketing side as they’re very involved on that front. Momoiro Clover Z is performing the theme song.
Plot concept: Sailor Moon stands up to destroy Queen Metalia, who radiates a tremendously dark energy. The power of the “Legendary Silver Crystal” is finally released.
