August 6 is International Sailor Moon Day. It all began with a small black cat with a lot to say, and a young girl called Usagi Tsukino who received a brooch that converts her into the titular Sailor Moon. From that point forth a team of Sailor Guardians becomes assembled, and they’re out to protect the world from all the opponents that come on their way. International Sailor Moon Day honors this incredibly popular manga and the anime series that began with it, so get out there and get the Guardian on this day!
History of International Sailor Moon Day
The day of International Sailor Moon Day is a subtle analysis to determine just how much of a fan you are. Rather than the simple choice of Sailor Moon’s birthday or the day the manga was first designed, it’s set on the anniversary of Mamoru’s birthday! It makes perfect sense admitting that he’s the Prince of Earth and represents us all. Sailor Moon is so familiar that it has garnered an international following, initially being distributed in Japan in the year 1991 it had over one million copies sold by the year 1995, and the number just kept improving over the next couple of decades. Now it’s loved the world over, both in its manga and its anime form, and it has sold over 35 million copies in about fifty countries, that’s some serious Sailor love right there!
Speaking of Sailor Love, (the manga) Sailor Moon has stood as a potent symbol for the LGBTQ societies thanks to its “naturalization” of lesbianism, a result of the futuristic environment, and the goals of its authors to show equality in its work. It’s been said to emphasize a particular feminist design by “combining traditional masculine action with traditional female affection and sexuality,” a genuinely daring advance by its authors and fans considering the time it was made.
