So Nostalgic~

Does anyone remember those Sailor Moon dolls that were released by Irwin Toys? I used to have one when I was younger, and it was my most favorite doll! Unfortunately now, that doll is at my dad's place, and I would rather not stop by there to go and get it, even though I've been wanting it back for so many years. Amazingly enough, my husband had found the exact same doll off of ebay and he got it for me! I'm so stoked over it!




It was listed as mint condition, but..... I opened the box anyways. >.> ( I can hear the hearts of collectors shattering everywhere... Sorry guys!) I didn't want it just to keep it in a box and put on display, anyways. I wanted the doll so I can play with it like I used to! Think what you will of an adult like me playing with a doll, but it just brings back such fond memories for me. In my opinion, reliving those happy memories is what makes this doll valuable, not the condition it's in. Now I just need to find Tuxedo Mask so Sailor Moon won't be lonely!

Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon



I'm so so SO happy that volumes one and two of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon had come in yesterday! As soon as they came in, I ripped open the box right away and I couldn't help but admire the cover art on each one. It's just so pretty! Lols! xD I have to say that I think the second volume's cover is my favorite of the two, which is odd for me since usually I would choose whatever has pink on it over anything else. :P But I really love how elegant Mercury looks on there and I think the water in the background looks, too.

 I haven't read the manga before, so I am looking forward to seeing how it turns out. So far I've finished reading the first one, and it started off pretty similar to the anime at first, and then it became way different! Some of the encounters that  Usagi had when meeting some of the other sailor senshi for the first time had been altered quite a bit in the anime. Also, Usagi doesn't appear to be nearly as cowardly or as much of a crybaby in the manga. She seems to be a bit more brave and more willing to investigate things, and she also doesn't seem to refuse her role as leader like she does in the anime. 

The manga also goes along a whole lot faster compared to the anime. There aren't so many in-between chapters or fillers and all of the sailor scouts have all pretty much been assembled aside from Sailor Venus in the first volume. Two of Queen Beryl's henchmen have also pretty much been killed off already, and don't have much of a story behind them, nor were they really given much personality.. It is kind of a fresh new take for me on the series. ^_^ I really enjoy it. :D It's fun spotting all of the differences! I can't wait to read the rest!

"On behalf of the moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil..."

I was so stoked to have found a Sailor Moon sticker! x3 I used to be so obsessed with that show when I was little, so I kind of freaked when I saw it. xD I always thought Sailor Moon was kind of a good role model for girls, even though she was an anime character. Think about it, at the end of every episode, they had that one segment called "Sailor Moon Says..." that had good lessons to teach, such as being kind to others, being responsible, and not judging others by their appearance, and of course, much more. ^_^ It really influenced me as a child to be as good as I could be in hopes to be like her. Amazingly, the things that I learned from just that tiny part of the show still stuck with me as I grew older, too! :D It's a shame that most cartoons and shows now don't have lessons to teach or a moral. Most of it is mostly compiled of random garbage that really does rot your brain. Seriously, I feel like I lost a few brain cells watching some of the newer stuff on Cartoon Network (though I have to say, Adventure Time and Regular Show are still pretty funny despite being completely random).


Anyways, after thinking of where to place the sticker, I finally decided to put it on my laptop. Take a look! ^.^




Yeah, I've also got Chrono from Chrono Trigger on here, too. :3
