Viz Media Responds to Sailor Moon Sailor Stars Anime's Booklet Errors
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Viz Media revealed in a statement on Tuesday that a booklet bundled with the limited edition of the first Sailor Moon Sailor Stars home video release contains text errors. The company said, "The erroneous text is in the romaji provided with the song lyrics. The booklet is the only item affected and the issue does not affect the rest of the Limited Edition set or the Standard BD or DVD releases."
Viz Media also stated that it is working on a "replacement solution" for people who already purchased the set. The set shipped with 17 episodes on Tuesday. Viz Media's release marks the first time Sailor Moon Sailor Stars, which is the fifth and final season of the original Sailor Moon television anime series, is getting a home video release in North America.
The previously revealed dub cast includes:
- Stephanie Sheh as Chibi-Chibi
- Melissa Hutchison as Sailor Star Fighter
- Erika Harlacher as Sailor Star Maker
- Sarah Williams as Sailor Star Healer
- Carrie Keranen as Sailor Galaxia
- Corina Boettger as Sailor Tin Nyanko
- Faye Mata as Sailor Aluminum Siren
- Katie Leigh as Sailor Iron Mouse
- Andi Rich as Sailor Lead Crow
Similar to Viz Media's previous Sailor Moon sets, the release has a limited-edition Blu-ray Disc/DVD combo pack, a standard Blu-ray Disc/DVD combo pack, and a standard DVD release. The limited-edition set includes a full-color episode guide inside a collector's chipboard box.
The anime originally aired for 34 episodes from 1996 to 1997.
Viz Media released Sailor Moon Super S, the fourth anime season, on home video in two sets last year in April and November.
