As the new Sailor Moon Crystal series is not a remake of the previous 1992 anime but a new adaptation of and hewing closer to the source manga, wouldn't it be more accurate to refer to Crystal as an "alternate retelling" rather than its current "remake" label? I point to Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood concerning this, which has the same relation to its 2003 predecessor and their source manga, but is labeled as an "Alternate Retelling".
