Fans of the iconic magical girl series, Sailor Moon, can rejoice as significant discounts are currently available on various collector`s items. The highly sought-after Naoko Takeuchi Collection Box Set 1 is priced at an unprecedented low, alongside other manga editions and anime Blu-ray sets, making it an ideal time for enthusiasts to expand their collection.
Naoko Takeuchi Collection Manga Box Set 1 (6 Volumes)
The first box set of Naoko Takeuchi`s original manga collection is available for just $35.45, a remarkable 55% off its original price of $78. This special offer represents a new historic low for the glittering collection. Released last November, this set features paperback editions of “Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Vol. 1-6,” accompanied by sixteen exclusive art cards, all housed in a beautifully designed holographic display box with a magnetic clasp. Each of the six oversized paperbacks contains between 300 and 400 pages, offering over 2,100 pages of reading material. Given its immense popularity among readers, this deal is expected to sell out quickly.
Naoko Takeuchi Collection Manga Box Set 2 (6 Volumes)
Anticipation is building for the release of the second Naoko Takeuchi Collection Manga Box Set, expected on November 11th. This follow-up set completes the original Sailor Moon series with Volumes 7-10 and includes the two-volume prequel manga, “Codename: Sailor V.” Similar to its predecessor, Box Set 2 will come in a holographic display case with a magnetic closure, featuring sixteen art cards and exclusive stickers. While slightly shorter with 1,888 total pages (across four mainline volumes and the two-part prequel), it remains packed with collectible content. Pre-orders are currently open for $66.25 (down from $78), with a price guarantee ensuring you receive the best offer before release.
The Enduring Legacy of Sailor Moon Manga
The Sailor Moon manga, the inspiration behind the beloved anime, chronicles the adventures of Usagi, an ordinary teenager transformed into a superhero after an encounter with a talking cat. This series became a cultural phenomenon in the 90s, establishing itself as one of the best-selling manga of all time, alongside giants like “One Piece” and “Tokyo Ghoul.” Its profound influence helped shape the “Super Girl” genre in anime and manga.
Sailor Moon: Eternal Edition Manga
For those who prefer not to wait for Box Set 2 to complete their series or wish to collect individual volumes, the Naoko Takeuchi Collection volumes can be purchased separately for around $13 each. Another excellent option is the Sailor Moon Eternal Editions. This series re-prints the original artwork on larger pages. The complete 12-volume Eternal Edition series, encompassing the original 10 Sailor Moon volumes and the two “Codename: Sailor V” prequel volumes, is available in paperback.
