More about Sailor Moon Cosmos and the project as a whole

This entire project started in 2015, with the Sailor Moon Crystal series, which put the franchise back into prominence after a few years without new content. While the anime adaptation of the 90s was much celebrated and propelled the series’ popularity to new heights, transforming it into a worldwide phenomenon, it steered greatly from the manga with a lot of filler while Sailor Moon Crystal adapted the source material faithfully.

However, after a couple of seasons, the series ended, and it has been turned into a line of movies that are adapting the final couple of arcs in the manga. Sailor Moon Eternal was the first two sets of movies, released in 2021, and now Sailor Moon Cosmos is going to be the next one to fully bring Naoko Takeuchi’s vision in anime format.

Sailor Moon was a breakthrough manga series in the 90s as it showed a fully female cast fighting against the forces of evil, while breaking several gender norms of its time. It is also revered for being one of the first series that managed to combine the shonen and shojo genres into a single story.
