I've even had some of more male friends kinda blink a few times when I list the themes of the manga outload. I got one younger friend Brirdie always asking me about animes he should try out or we talk about a lot of the deep themes going on in anime/manga. I mean Sailor Moon does stand as a piller of anime today and how it helped anime even take a stride in the West in the first place. Much as Dragonball and Pokemon did when anime started to first come out in the main stream.
Fav Scout: Sailor Moon is my 3ed, but I have a slight bug when it comes to the 90's anime. Not dont get me wrong, I love my 90's anime and go back and rewatch it, just yes Moonie in the 90's anime was always kinda put as the dumb "blond" to even lazy card a bit to much till Sailor Moon Stars came along. In the manga, she does mature and grow and is not a cry baby and shows true growth as a leader. Yet the core values she does carry in both the anime 90's and manga: selfless love, accepting all ppl, bravery in the standing up for her friend's and vaulies, reaching out to those often passed over by others, finding value in others most don't see, self sacrifice for love and fully knowing she might not make it to save her friends and world, being just being kind without asking anything in return.
