Fighting Evil By Moonlight: Sailor Moon Roundup 


Sailor Moon Anime, Manga, Movie, Live Action and Musical (Sera Myu) News. Wow! I just realised I completely forgot a Moonie Music Monday! Really sorry guys! My first ever Kids Yoga classes were on at 9:20am Monday morning in a studio over an hour away and I was just so nervous and excited about it I forgot about the update. I don't get home until 7:30pm Monday nights and once I got home I used my free time to eat dinner and prepare for my first Tuesday classes the next day which started at 8:45am!!! (Needless to say I was very tired on Wednesday!)

In case you're interested the classes went really well! Teaching Kids Yoga to kids 3 - 8yr old kids in Japan is so much fun and really rewarding!

To relate this more to Sailor Moon, during my teacher training each teacher had to do a "practice lesson" using a kids yoga lesson plan they wrote themselves. I based a whole class around Super Mario Bros and Mario Kart and it went off! Definitely will be reusing it in one of my real Kids Yoga classes in the near future. I always find using a topic that interests kids to teach them something (be it English or Yoga or something else) really maintains their attention and motivates them to learn. I've begun thinking about writing a Sailor Moon themed Kids Yoga lesson plan lately. The show's values definitely connect to the Yoga value system and the numerous aspects of nature and of course the obvious posing done by the characters makes it a very natural fit for a Yoga lesson theme.

When I write this lesson plan, I'll definitely post it here for people to use. Are there many teachers, Yogis or parents who read Moonkitty.NET who would be interested in Sailor Moon Yoga lesson plans? Comment on this post if you would like to see this kind of content.

p.s. In other site news, I've transferred my site feed to Google so it now has a new address: http://feedproxy.google.com/sailormoon. You don't need to update you feed programs though as the old address will be forwarded to the new one. If you're a clean freak like me though you may want to.

Now on with the Sailor Moon Roundup!

  • Moon Collection is a great new Sailor Moon blog well worth subscribing to. Covers the merchandise side of Sailor Moon fandom and is well written with some great pictures!

  • Sailor Tiger's Grotto has added a new picture.

  • The Sailor Moon Fanlisting is almost up to 10,000 members! If you haven't joined up, do so and let's show everyone how popular Sailor Moon is!

  • A new version of Moonlight Soldiers is on the way.

  • SailorCosmos.org has some new content.

  • Senshi Card Mania R has updated about a possible continuation (though also an equal possibility of not continuing). If you're a fan, check it out.

  • Check out these cool Sailor Galaxia graphics!

  • Sailor Moon Obsession continues to rock with frequent content.

  • Several old school animes coming to film soon have been rather active though still no news of a Live Action Sailor Moon Film. The first teaser for the upcoming CG version of Astro Boy has been released and looks pretty cool. Would you like to see a CG Sailor Moon film? The same guys that made this Astro Boy film made that kick arse Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie. Something tells me they'd do a good job of Sailor Moon (April and Casey looked great!).

    The Dragonball Movie is looking pretty cool and word is a He-Man movie, G-Force Movie and a Voltron movie are also in the works.

    Of course there's the second Transformers Movie out next year which is probably my most anticipated film. Strangely enough, while I hated the DBZ anime (and I do mean hated) I'm actually really looking forward to the DB movie. Go figure.

    While I'm on a retro kick, if you were born in the 80s you probably saw the Disney movie, Race to Witch Mountain. Well check out the trailer for the remake! Pretty kick arse!

  • Back to Sailor Moon, The Deep Submerge Awards only have two more weeks left to vote for your favourite sites. Don't forget!

    Ohh wow!!! A huge entry! I love it! :p


    I'm so happy to read that your class went so well!! You must have tons of fun there, specially since Japanese children are so darn cute!!!! I don't get how the themed lessons work though. :/

    So many pages have done updates this week, I gotta check them all out.. OOHHhhh!!!! Thx so so much for the "rocking" thing BTW xDD

    And yeah... there are a lot of anime based movies coming out. I truthfully fear that IF a SM LiveAction movie were to be made they would make it really cheesy.

    3d on the other hand... well I really like 3d animation, but I think it would be too easy to go overboard and end up with something like Speedracer. It's not that bad but it's a delicate balance.

    And finally, about the DB movie... well, you know what I think, but I'm going to watch it anyway xD


    Ok. I'm off to continue ROCKING (I LOVED that, can you tell??? HAHA)
