Sailor Moon Petite Étrangère Song Collection

Site Stuff, Site Updates

Happy Sunday Miss Dreamers! We hope you’ve been enjoying Viz’s new dub of Sailor Moon as well as the new episode of Sailor Moon Crystal, all of which came about this weekend. Early this morning (for our time zone, last night in Japan), Sailor Moon Petite Étrangère was finally broadcast via Niconico Japan region. Thanks to Aers00, we have a recording of the show that James, sassypants678, and DJ are working on as I type this. As of this typing, the first 20% of the musical’s translation is done, plus 70% of the total songs.

To preempt any questions, no, we do not have a solid estimate as to when this will be completed. If we compare this to last year, La Reconquista first streamed early Saturday morning (our zone), so we’re at least 24 hours “behind” so to speak. As we all have to go back to work tomorrow, free time will be used to get this done as soon as we can. It will get done when it gets done, we’re trying to have that be as quick as possible. I would be shocked if it were ready tonight.

With all that said, I have finished ripping all of the songs from the broadcast, making this unofficial “album” available for download!

Removed, see here for details

The download contains all of the songs from Sailor Moon Petite Étrangère ready to be played on the device/software of your choosing!

That’s all for now. The new lyrics should be ready not long after they are translated, I’m not exactly sure when that will be either. If you enjoy this new addition and are looking forward for the rest to come, please donate to help keep us going. We need as much caffeine and snackies as we can to get us through, plus the assistance putting a good dent in the server cost. Thank you! =)

We hope you enjoy the Sailor Moon Petite Étrangère Song Collection, and are looking forward to continuing work on everything else! See you soon! =D

Sailor Fan Book – Princesses

This is a English translation of a “Das Offiziele Sailor Fanbuch” – officially licensed German Sailor Moon fan books that were released between 1999 and 2000 by Diamond Publishing. Originally, the Germans had translated the first five Japanese official Pretty Soldiers Official Fan Books into their own language, however, due to the immense popularity of those items in Germany, Diamond Publishing eventually expanded on the line, creating 22 books in all. 17 of the 22 books are completely original works which you can’t find anywhere else.

These have been translated by our German staff member, P-chan and graphically designed by staff member Christina. Please note while reading these translations, that these books are essentially the German equivalent of our Tokyopop and other releases. This means that the books may not necessarily reflect accurate information in comparison to the show. This is most notable when these books print out “Rea” instead of “Rei” and so on. These are direct translations of the books, and to maintain the integrity of these translations, nothing canon has been “fixed” as a result.

Nakayoshi August 2014 Issue

Many of Naoko Takeuchi’s works, including Sailor Moon, were serialized by chapter in this monthly publication before being published by Kodansha in book format. These back issues of Nakayoshi are extremely difficult to find due to their age, the fact that the publisher does not allow for direct back issue re-ordering, and their rarity – many collectors in Japan prize these issues, especially when they feature famous artists such as Ms. Takeuchi.

Sailor Moon Crystal Mook

Again donated by Mizuno Caitlin of Wild Mushroomland!

Mizuno Caitlin: Published this week, the First Visual Book isn’t entirely comprehensive. There are things obviously left out, like details on Sailor Venus’s transformation. But, what we have gotten reads and looks like a news magazine for everything that has been released and produced thus far in this whirlwind Sailor Moon revival. Included are: Momoiro Clover Z photo sets, interviews, and behind the scenes content. Character designs and profiles for all characters who have appeared on screen thus far. A look into the backdrops and storyboards used to render the animation. Interviews with, among others, Mitsuishi Kotono aka the voice of Sailor Moon herself. Also, a pretty comprehensive merchandise list and a look at the current musical. The included DVD had three tracks: A trailer with Momoiro Clover Z’s singing in the background, a trailer with only BGM, and video of the Nico Nico Chokaigi3 Sailor Moon panel/presentation from the spring.
