New Sailor Moon Anime

Publisher Kodansha and creator Naoko Takeuchi announced on Friday that a new anime adaptation of Takeuchi's Sailor Moon manga is being produced. The new anime series is aimed for release next summer, and the idol group Momoiro Clover Z will perform a theme song.

Kodansha and Takeuchi made the announcement during a live event celebrating the 20th anniversary of the manga. Momoiro Clover Z sang the first Sailor Moon anime's theme song "Moonlight Densetsu" at the event via a live video feed from France, where they are guests of Japan Expo.

Update: More background information added. Although Kotono Mitsuishi and Tohru Furuya, the voices of Sailor Moon/Usagi Tsukino and Tuxedo Mask/Mamoru Chiba in the first Sailor Moon anime, were present at the live event, the event did not specify that they will reprise their roles in the new series. The event also did not specify which song Momoiro Clover Z will perform as a theme song of the new anime.

Update 2: Kodansha editor Fumio Osano confirmed that the new anime project is not a film project.

Still a bit shocked, didn't expect this to happen. Definitely awesome tho! :awesome:

well, we needed some new transformation scenes anyway, not like we don't have enough of them in AMV's already ;p

I think i'll actually check this out, hopefully they modernize it nicely enough to stand up to the current generation of mahou shojo series.

Notice anything in common? All these franchises are nine or more years of age, or "old", as you call them, have an immense fanbase, and have little to no signs of aging or slowing down. Now, please, word your thoughts carefully before you try to dismiss something. Though, on the other hand, I do wish Toei would decide to bring the last two seasons of the original Sailor Moon to the U.S. before going through with this new series, or at least do a simulcast of the new series.
