Was surfing around and stumbled across this post on how someone found release dates for Akira and Ghost in the Shell mangas at Amazon.ca for later in the year.
How is this connected to Sailor Moon? Well both series are owned by Kodansha which has basically killed or let expire any rights to their manga series' distribution in North America. This is one of the reasons the redesigned Sailor Moon manga that was released in Japan a couple of years ago never saw a release and the original Mixx English version of the Sailor Moon manga is now out of print.
With both Akira and Ghost in the Shell now officially being rereleased this signals Kodansha's move into direct distribution and could very well means a rerelease of the Sailor Moon manga is in the near future, especially considering how popular the manga was when first released in the U.S.
Have searched all Amazon sites for any new Sailor Moon releases and still nothing official but this is a very good sign.
Will keep you posted.
