Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Crystal - if you Have to Ask, this Story is Not For you

During a discussion last weekend, several community members suggested that at weekends we look more closely at the non-technical aspects of nerd life, so cafebabe writes:

I'm not sure if this is on topic but the other site used to cover anime quite extensively.

A new series of Sailor Moon is being released via hulu.com and neonalley.com in which the story of Sailor Moon is retold from the beginning. (This is colloquially known in the film industry as a "reboot" but such a term is probably irksome to geeks who find rebooting a computer to be tiresome.)

The series will be particularly popular with the demographic of women who watched previous incarnations of Sailor Moon and who are now in their late 20s. Laura Hudson writing for wired.com is presumably in this demographic and gives away a few spoilers despite promising not to. A trailer for the series reveals much less.

    i forgot to include that a new jojo's bizzare adventure anime is also currently running, about halfway through part 3, and should run through at least part 6, and hopefully sometime this year we'll finally get movie 4 of Rebuild of Evangelion :D

    anime is the one place where "reboots" are almost universally a good thing.
