Joana’s Reviews > Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon – Livro 1 > Status Update

I’m confused now, for some reason when Sailor Jupiter used her powers, they added translation notes with the power names in English, saying as it is in the original… First why would you?? When you didn’t do it for the others!!! Second, isn’t the original Japanese??

But moving on, Makoto is so good!!! She was always my fave from the inner circle!!!

So wait, it was a fake ID he was showing that said 9th grade, bc now they’re saying he’s 17/18, which again worrying age gap!!! Or was he held back and repeating a few years… still very confused…

Not the point, but I wanted to share!! Starting the Rei AKA Rita chapter, so maybe on point, I went to this talk on Sailor Moon today by the Portuguese publisher, and it was the original Japanese publisher that made it part of the deal for the rights that they had to keep the original names!!!

We have met Ami now and she’s the sweetest girl!!! And also I find her quite relatable to who I was at that age!!! (Also now also feeling nostalgic about my friend that when we were 5/6 and played Sailor Moon, she was always Ami - I wonder if she knows the manga has been published here, or she’s even interested in reading it - the anime meant the world to us!!!)

I really don’t wanna read it too fast… this is bringing me so much joy… she just run into Gonçalo for the first time and he called her “cabeça de bolos de arroz” which is iconic!!! (But also her being introduced as being in 9th grade, and if I remember right he’s studying medicine…)

Also interesting that they kept the original names, so no more Bunny… but learned that’s actually Usagi!!!
