[color="Plum"]With the Sailor Moon re-release and Sailor V debut manga coming very soon, I'm curious to know who's going to buy them.[/color]

I would if I had money and if there was a store near me that sold them. But I guess I could use Amazon, so really it's just the fact I have no money preventing me from buying it.

I don't know. I want to, but I need the money to do it! I think I will when I have the cash. But that won't be for... a while.

I'd like to but I just don't have the money to blow right now :\ Maybe eventually.

hecks yeah!!! Got volumes 1 of both series pre-ordered already. I'm really glad they are doing this; my old copies of the manga are so worn out now, a couple of them have the pages falling out. plus they're the old flipped volumes from before everyone caught on to releasing series like in Japan. I can't wait!!

My *only* complaint is that I heard this is going to be a bi-monthly release, with 12+volumes, which means it will take two+ years. But I guess It could be worse. It could be Bokurano's release schedule :(.

I want to, but I don't really have money either. I definitely plan on it once I have a job.

I wonder if they're goijg to be using the original names this time, or if they'll use the dub names like the old tokyopop translation

I think they're using the original. I'm pretty sure that they know a lot of fans are hoping for a more faithful adaption than the Tokyopop translation. I certainly wouldn't like it if they used the dub names, because I just prefer using their Japanese names. But, I guess only time will tell. ^_^

Well remember, the Tokyopop didn't fully use the dub names. I remember people scratching their heads over the name "Bunny," though I think they pulled some BS excuse about "Well her name is actually Serena but everyone calls her Bunny." And the outers kept their Japanese names completely.

Kodansha: The Japanese names and cultural references will remain intact, and there will be our standard "translation notes" section in the back of the books.

[color="Plum"]It also says on Amazon and Barnes & Noble in the overview, that they'll use their japanese names when you look up the volumes.[/color]

I will be getting the new Sailor Moon volumes right away (the old ones weren't so great), but Sailor V can wait a few years, me thinks.
