I hope everyone has had an excellent holiday season! I have a bit of exciting news for today. A Sailor Moon tribute CD was announced yesterday in celebration of the franchise's 20th Anniversary. "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The 20th Anniversary Memorial Tribute" will contain various songs from all seasons of the Sailor Moon anime, including favorites like "Moonlight Densetsu." Another exciting feature of the CD is that the front album artwork will be original artwork from Sailor Moon creator, Naoko Takeuchi. The CD will also feature many collaboration artists, including: Shoko Nakagawa, Momoiro Clover Z, Mitsuko Horie, Tommy heavenly6, Mariko Goto x Abu-chan, and Haruko Momoi. It should be noted that more artists are to come, and which song(s) each artist will record has not yet been released. The songs that will be recorded are:
- "Moonlight Densetsu" (Opening Theme for the 1st through 4th Seasons)
- "Heart Moving" (1st Season 1st Edition)
- "Princess Moon" (1st Season 2nd Edition)
- "Otome no Policy" (2nd Season Edition)
- "La Soldier" (88th Episode Insert Song)
- "Ai no Senshi" (68th, 89th, 102nd Episode Insert Song)
- "Tuxedo Mirage" (3rd Season Edition)
- "Rashiku Ikimasho" (4th Season 2nd Edition)
- "Sailor Star Song" (5th Season Opening)
- "Kaze mo Sora mo Kitto..." (5th Season Edition)
And, here is a shot of the gorgeous album artwork:
The "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The 20th Anniversary Memorial Tribute" CD will be available to purchase everywhere on January 29, 2014. This is definitely something Sailor fans will want to pick up, and something that won't break the bank like some of the recent collectible figurines. While all of the new merchandise is exciting and beautifully designed, I am really wanting some previews of the forthcoming anime, even if it is just a screenshot or short trailer. Oh, well. . . fingers crossed for something soon. If anything new surfaces, I will be sure to let you know. Stay safe, everyone!
