With an in depth look at the history, culture, and society of Japan, you will be sure to learn many new things about the country.
Included in this book is a detailed analysis of the characters, explaining many of Takeuchi's inspirations for character designs.

Thoughtful descriptions explain the origins of many of the locations used in the series, from Mamoru's KO University to Madame Rose's "Princess Seminar" Mansion. If you've ever wanted to know the Sailor Moon landmarks to visit on a trip to Japan, this is the place.
