Starscream

So far they're up to issue 8; I think nine is coming out soon.

0___o I think issue nine's out all ready, I keep seeing the cover with Pluto on it and keep seeing stuff that says Vol.10 will be out May 21.

429 yen, according to yahoocurrency, that works out to $63 Canadian (or $45 U.S.) Kick Ass!!

$45? For 9 or 10, I'm assuming...right now the exchange rate is 0.88c (US) to the yen ^^;;

And yes, you're right...that shows me never to go by Genvid's coverage of the issues as indicative of what's out already ^^;;

I love this cover!

Ah....Mars looks gorgeous on the cover...^_^
Anyway, I had no idea that they were realeasing those! *Wishes like Starscream that she could read Japanese* They sound awesome!

I can read Japanese? Woot.

...but in all seriousness, I can only read some basic kana. I only know of the prices and such because I pick up the volumes for a friend that lives out of state. I'm gonna have to wait until (if?) they decide to translate them to English to be able to read them.

In the actual forum, they talk about volume 9. It is almost 3 pages long. I would suggest going in there...but then again I say not to. And the article writer is done, but is looking over it before posting it on the main page.

And alas, I still only have volumes 3 and 4. But I will get more!

More like $3.76 US and $5.29 Canada. Did you really think it would be that much? Manga in Japan is very cheap. I don't know where you made a mistake with yahoocurrency, but I just looked up currency on Google and went to the first website. You can get an idea of what the cost in US dollars will be by moving the decimal two places over to the left (and subtracting a few dollars).

Yes, volume 9 is already out. Takeuchi Naoko said Chibi Chibi will be on volume 11. So that leaves only volume 12 up to speculation about who will be on it. Since we know Saturn will be on 10.

I would say it is more near 5$ american. That is what I paid when the yen was changed to dollars. I think peach might have put in 4290 yen accidentally...but then again, she/he did say that was a "kick ass" price?

I wanna go buy volume 9 because Pluto is gorgeous on the cover!

Oops. I meant altogether, all 12 issues would be about $63 Canadain. And I said kick ass because I'm going to Japan in the summer and plan on buying all 12 issues, plus all 3 Sailor V issues.

Chibi Chibi on Vol.11? Makes sense, I wonder if she'll jam the Starlights on Vol.12. Also, does anyone know if the Chibi-Usa diaries, Casblanca Memories, Kaguya story etc. will be in their own Volume?

Right now, I only have volume one, but I plan on buying all twelve volumes. I was a little disappointed that the linear notes were taken out. I wish updated liner notes were added.. or something o_O

So far I have Volume 1, 2 (damaged), 4, and 6.

I get them in Kinokuniya in NYC. Only 5 bucks a manga.

Now I get it. Thanks for clearing that up.

I have all the volumes of the new manga out so far, the Tokyopop version, and I used to say I had volume 4 and 18 of the original but I haven't seen those since before we moved to our new house, so I guess they're officially gone.

LOL. I know that picture of me in the "You're pics" topic is confusing, but I can assure you that I'm a girl.

ATTENTION EVERYONE!!. Me and my superior genius have figured out who will be on the cover of the final volume. :drum roll: Sailor Cosmos! I'm sure it'll be her. If I'm wrong, I'll give up my official title of Bishounen no Hime (my ego's so big it could fill a room

)

My bet's on Eternal Sailor Moon.

Sailor Moon is the only Sailor Soldier that didn't appear in Eternal form. Of course Cosmos would be cool.

I personally would LOVE to see Princess Serenity, or a Sailor Moon X Tuxedo Mask cover.

Where the love for Tuxedo?

I agree. It's probably going to be Eternal Sailormoon.

I have a question for any of you that have PGSM vol. 7

According to Antie from Dies Gaudaii (sp?) a shot of a nude Hotaru was edited.

Ms. Takeuchi decided to redo an image of Hotaru standing in front of the planet Saturn. (Hotaru is nude, but we do not see her nipples or the front area between her legs. Too bad, all you perverts.)

Did she just redraw it, or removed the nudity? I was wondering to see if Mrs. Takeuchi is editing nudity now.

I have a small picture of the Vol.10 cover on my site (merchandise page). It can also be viewed at Genvid's forum if you're a user there.

If anyone's interested, Alex Glover of The Manga of Takeuchi Naoko, who's translating the new manga, has added a section for the differences in dialogue between the old and new versions. He doesn't have the differences in artwork, so I guess I still have to find a site that has that, but still it's pretty cool. Not a lot of dialoge's been changed, and most of what has is pretty much the same.

Where are the stickers in the manga? I just got volume 2 today, and went though EVERY PAGE but I still couldn't find them. I ordered the book online from animecastle.com if it helps somehow.

Someone mentioned that maybe only the first edition printings came with stickers. But who knows.

I think it's safe to confirm that the stickers will only come in the first printing of the manga. Numbers 3 and 9 that I ordered from Kikiwai came in today and there were no stickers in number 3. It also lacked the wrap around advertisement and the logos on these second printings are no longer raised like the first printings. However, number 9 came with stickers. I don't think we miss out on that much in the second printing. It's not really the end of the world for me, but I do want those stickers that come in number 4 I think. I'm talking about the big stickers of Usagi and Chibiusa. They're wearing nurse uniforms and they say "How are you feeling?" and "Can I take your temperature?" I thought those ones were adorable when I saw them over at the Sailor Moon Soap Box!
