and here are some low-level monsters to occupy the Sailors' time.


It's funny you call them low level when the girls struggled to even remotely damage the Heart Snatchers in the anime (and most of the time, Uranus and Neptune had to provide an opening for Sailor Moon to finish the enemy off). XD

Thanks for using my Reader's Choice review, Carlo. I wasn't sure if it was going to be used at any time, but thanks for a nice surprise today. Anyway, I would say that Hareluya is "too controversial to be licensed," per se, but I do see it being too much of a pain for Viz to bother licensing it, especially since changing/removing the Christian imagery would remove a fair amount of the humor in the title.

And, yeah, I'm not surprised to see Message to Adolf get such high marks. I have to buy that sooner or later.

I actually think Sailor Moon slowing down it's pace a bit is a HUGE evidence for it and is a big reason why I think 6 is the best volume of the series so far (though 7 just came out, haven't had a chance to read it yet). I'll admit, I love the Outers more than the Inners but I really think the storytelling has gotten a lot better as the series goes on and the fact that things aren't moving at the same breakneck pace as the beginning is the main reason everything is working so much better.

Message to Adolf definitely sounds interesting. I definitely need to read some Tezuka (which reminds me that I still need to actually look my copy of Princess Knight at some point).

Loved the Message to Adolf review, though you wrote "fail in love" instead of "fall in love" when talking about Sohei.
And I agree with what you wrote about Sohei. After like the third or fourth time someone just suddenly falls in love with him I rolled my eyes. Other than that it's a great read. Buy it if you haven't.
