The Sailor Moon R art begins today!

I have mixed feelings about R as a season. On the whole, it's my least favorite of all of the seasons, though I am very fond of the Makaiju arc. It's the Black Moon arc (the "proper" story which accounts for most of the season) that I don't particularly like. It still has its moments, but a lot of the time it just seems humorless and uninspired, and I can't say I have much time for the villains either. SuperS is the season that gets the most criticism from the fandom at large, but I'd take a randomly-selected SuperS episode over almost any episode of R's main arc. So, sorry for sounding negative, but my R-antipathy was inevitably going to come up at some point, so I thought I'd get it out of the way.

Anyway, as I said, I rather like the initial arc, which has some entertaining and very sympathetic villains. This week is dedicated to them! All misunderstood naive aliens, all of the time!

And so, with 125 chibis uploaded, I've completed Sailor Moon's first season!

So what's next? Well, Sailor Moon R. I'll be taking a week off from uploading new chibis, in part to build up my backlog again, and you'll be able to see the first of Sailor Moon R's characters on the 21st of January (or maybe the morning of the 22nd depending on where you live).

But there'll still be things to see next week too! What things? Well, you'll have to wait to find out...

Due to house-moving issues, I don't have proper internet access right now, and won't be able to update until some time next week. However, I'll be posting all of the updates I would have posted during the downtime once I have internet again.

Current backlog status: Characters up to the end of episode 21 are completed; characters up to episode 31 are inked and awaiting scanning, cleanup and coloring.

I like Sailor Moon. I like drawing cute things.
One day I wondered: "What if I drew every character from the Sailor Moon anime?"
"Not just main characters, but monsters and characters-of-the-day as well?"
"And in a cute chibi-style?"
"Yeah, what if... that?"

And then I did.

As time goes on, I'll be adding more and more characters, in (more or less) chronological order of appearance. The criteria for precisely which characters are worth drawing are still a little fuzzy, but it's more or less this: if they played a significant part in an episode, they're in. All monsters and victims-of-the-day will be included. Alternate identities will also be included if they are a significant part of the character concerned. And there will probably be a bunch more caveats to go along with these rules eventually.

I'll also be posting some information and thoughts about the characters along with each illustration.

Enjoy~
