Firsts


The project I am working on presenting is focused on Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon is a popular manga/anime series created by Naoko Takeuchi in 1992 as a show to rival the popular Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. The focus of this blog is to briefly introduce the viewer of the blog to the characters but as well as the connotations behind their characters.
