My younger sister bought Sailor Moon & Codename: Sailor V just last week! (I would have bought my own copies, but we live in the same house anyway, plus they only had 1 Sailor V left...)
I'm super glad that it's doing so well. I knew it'd do fine the first week of its release, but I didn't think it'd be #1, let alone top the charts for multiple weeks!
I think it's wonderful to see a shoujo title (and a magical girl one at that!) do so well, especially in a world where some people (mainly just DC) completely ignore the fact that women do read graphic novels

I am sooooo glad this is doing so well I'm a huge long-time fan and it's nice to see it geting re-released and see that it's doing this good!
Hopefully a lot of people can now love it for it's original manga version and realize there's more too it than the terribly dubbed anime xD
Hope this has made a lot of long-time fans like myself as happy as I am! and hopefully made some new fans out of people who either didn't know this was available, or never had chance to get it the first time round. More Moonies is always a good thing!
I have been a fan since I can remember and have all the original manga and GNs, but I will still be getting all these new released ones as they are just so beautiful! And I'm just obsessed with buying anything SM related!
LONG LIVE SAILOR MOON!

This X 1,000,000. Not just the US, but the world, pure and uncut.

Next time I go to Barnes and Noble I'll have to buy the manga. I've never seen the anime because when it was on in the US I was only about 4 or 5 so I really didn't get the chance to experience it. And now that the Manga has been released I get to experience a piece of anime history!

Awesome O.o It came late to my local comic shop though I guess diamond and Kodansha didn't expect to sell so well.

I honestly doubt they are able to see beyond their own noses, but it would be amusing to see all the trades of the reboot selling less than Sailor Moon
I liked few of the titles of their relaunch but to be honest... I was more excited about Sailor Moon.

I was so excited when I saw this! I've been a fan since '97 and really enjoyed this new translation. I've already pre ordered my copies of volume 2 of SM and SV.
