Tuxedo Mask: It's become really annoying saving the sailor scouts. I really gotta get myself a real job

Sailor Moon was created in Japan as  an "anime" a Japanese cartoon. The creator was a female named Naoko Takeuchi and since 1992 when Sailor Moon first started, it has become very popular in Japan and all around the world.

These days Sailor Moon is shown all around the world such as Hong Kong, Australia, Italy, Spain, France, Canada and the US.

Sailor Moon is about a 14 year old teenager named Serena who is like any other teenager with a family, friends, goes to school, hangs out with friends, loves to shop and eat, talks about boys and have major crushes on cute guys.

However, when evil lurks by usually getting energy from humans she turns into a female super hero called Sailor Moon and her other friends "The Sailor Scouts" which are Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus help and fight against evil to protect the universe. Even her darling Darien helps by becoming Tuxedo Mask.

Sailor Moon was created in Japan as  an 'anime' a Japanese cartoon. The creator was a female named Naoko Takeuchi " That is only half of the truth. Originally, sailor moon wasn't suppose to be an anime, but a real life series (like power rangers, or any other TV show that uses people actors instead of just voice actors) I found this out last year by a friend of a friend of mine (who are founders of my school's anime club) he told me that the original idea only lasted 1 episode before that idea was scrapped majorly (then the anime idea came up a bit later on, don't know when exactly the idea came). I saw the promotional commercial (about 30 seconds) it is as so bad you would laugh your butt off. If it would have stayed in that format, then most episodes to be aired would be 3 until people started to turn on something else. I am trying to ask my friend to ask his friend to find that commercial, plus the episode its self, and if they can re-find it, I will forward the info along. From what I remember a few of the characters were different. Just thought you'd like to know is little piece of info about the Sailor Moon series.
