Real life has really gotten in the way of my site plans recently and for that I really apologise.
I've been working full time six days a week and any free time I've had has been spent applying and interviewing for new jobs which hopefully will start next month.
For the next two weeks it's really going to hit the fan as one of the companies I work for will be making everyone work on the next two Sundays which means.... 14 days straight of work! Yay! I'll still be updating with any interesting and amazing Sailor Moon news and of course will try my hardest to post the Roundups and Moonie Music Mondays but will most likely combine the two features until late March when my time will free up more.
Now funnily enough, one of the job interviews I went to on Friday just happened to be literally across the road from the Hikawa Jinja that was the inspiration for Sailor Mars' shrine in the manga (different temples were used for the anime and live action versions)! I'd been here once before with Jay from Genvid but that was three or so years ago and I hadn't been since.
Out of curiosity I decided to check out the wish tags and see if there were any Sailor Moon fans who had visited the shrine recently. I didn't really expect to see anything Sailor Moon related but right on the top row were two tags with some amazing Sailor Moon artwork and messages in Japanese that basically read (I will punish you!). Here's the photo I took on my phone of them!
Pretty cool that Sailor Moon fans still visit the shrine on a regular basis!
Now here's your Sailor Moon music video spotlight! In kind of a musical mood right now so thought I would feature one of my favourite songs from the musicals featuring Yu Shirota and Marina, New Moonlight Romance.
I really hope the musicals come back for the 20th anniversary!
Now for the roundup! (busy! busy!)
There's a cool new Italian Sailor Moon poster here.
And finally all the new Sailor Moon CDs seem to be keeping all the same covers of the originals meaning they're just regular rereleases but still a Sailor Moon product release nevertheless. I will be picking up a few as they are pretty cheap and the only Sailor Moon CDs I have are musical, PGSM or NA Dub.
In site news I have updated the Sailor Moon Channel Layout Archive with February's layout. I'll also be getting around to regular site emails and tweets sometime this week I hope (if I have time). Keep sending in Moonie Mailbag questions! I WILL answer them whenever I get the chance. If you haven't been answered yet, don't worry! You WILL be!
That's about it for now! Comment below, follow on Twitter and have a great week!
