>>289901884>is this for realNah, she’s bluffing
And that's it. RIP Mars.Do you believe in the supernatural?
>>289902517Well that's not good Absolutely Thanks as always OP!
>>289902027USA! USA! USA!
>>289902054>middle of head sweat dropI love it
>>289901845One of the saddest things about Sailor Moon is that there are no prepainted scale figures that truly capture this sort of coloring and beauty from Naoko Takeuchi's art. I would love for a figure of Sailor Mars with this sort of perfect shading and coloring.
>>289901884I'm surprised this one isn't a mainstay of OPTs
>>289901884things the magical sailor guardians are weak to: 1. gun
>>289901902Is there a version of this image without the text? This is amazing wallpaper material
>>289902517Yeah kinda I've come to try to rationalize it through being things in another dimension, glances at the fourth dimension and such.
>>289902517no, but it doesn't mean I'll ignore it.
>>289875990Reminder that this whole spread was drawn by Naoko PURELY to fuck with us fujos and retcon Ikuhara’s cute and canon KunZoi, after this she didn’t bother doing anything with these ships and went back to yurishipping the Inners with each other and constantly reminding the audience that they’re off-limits for men like the true yuritroon in spirit she is.
>>289901902Damn, look at all those legs.
>>289901884RUN THEM POCKETS
>green hair instead of dark blueIt bugs me when official art gets shit wrong.
>>289902517I wouldn't go as far as to say that I believe in the supernatural but I will say I think there have been occurrences and events that are beyond the explanation of science as we understand it. Although maybe I should, since my mother has had like a dozen supernatural experiences.
>>289902096Unscrupulous use of mind control? I wonder where she got that from.>>289902185Cutie>>289902391Finding a burnt corpse? Damn, shoujo manga are hardcore.>>289902517Thanks, OP. I am really not a fan of abduction plots/protagonists getting captured, especially of characters that JUST got a supposed powerup, even if it's a new adversary with unknown abilities.>Do you believe in the supernatural?Not really, though I am sometimes doubtful.
>>289902185Here we see another example of Naoko’s deliberate baiting and then mocking of the fujo audience with Mako and Minako here serving as the proverbial stand-in for said fujos which she’ll later proceed to pull the rug out from under them when she ships Asanuma off with Makoto for a chapter purely to spite us!
>>289902096Was Umino brought here just for that gag?>>289902156Jupiter is a very large planet.
>>289906686Umino is the representation of Naoko’s audience.
>>289906686Yes and it's hilarious
>>289902517Thanks, anonsito.
>>289910566
>>289904623>t. Prismatic-bell
>>289901884bless Smith and Wesson>>289902246U F O E?>>289902517thanks, OP
>>289902067Umino out of fucking nowhere
>>289906297Didn't ask.
>>289902027>her name is USA>first thing she does is pull out a gun
>>289902484Well she didn't last long
>>289902484The villains in this series tend to get defeated pretty anticlimactically, I've noticed.
>>289902115Akanbe
>>289914621>>289914813We've already seen with the Shitennou how quickly these sub-bosses get killed off compared to the anime, and it's pretty much staying this way.
>>289902096Where's Shingo?
>>289902128Ah, there he is.
>>289902185Cute girl. And cute boy, too.
>>289902517Thanks, OP.No, although I find it to be fun in fiction.
>>289917637In the page yoiu replied to?
>>289906297????
>>289904623I never thought I'd find posters that were even more annoying than yurifags.
>>289901845Is this when the other girls start doing things in the manga?
>>289905853>Damn, shoujo manga are hardcore.Reminder that Junji Ito was mostly published in shoujo magazines.
>>289901884Incredible
>>2899046675 foot tall girls drawn like 6 foot models
>>289901948Our heroine is so dignified.
>>289902027We all live in Amerika
>>289914254He realized he hadn't appeared in a long time and found an excuse for panel time.
>>289902096>even getting tuxedo maskExtremely high power level.
>>289919759True, though he seems to have regained his composure without Luna's intervention.
>>289919326Isn't that Umino?
>>289919326That is Umino.Shingo wasn't hypnotized on panel.He might be going along with all of this just to fuck with Usage.
>>289902170Team Sailor Moon just went from 99% power (just Usagi) to 100% power.
>>289902185>>289902205The Sailors are into younger guys.....
>>289902231My dignified priestess.
>>289902277The new villain team is far less ambitious.
>>289902325Breast milk
>>289902354>>289902371>>289902391Poor ReiThis is a lot of bullshit to handle at once.
>>289902294>random immolation of a young girlI remember this one shocking me when I first read it, the manga is far more gruesome than the anime.
>>289920000A sign of good taste possessed by only few girls.
>>289902438Jobber
>>289902517Thank you for posting! These threads shouldn't die before they're due.
>>289919354Naoko was deliberately baiting Mamoru/Asanuma there just to fuck with us fujos.
>>289901845Act 16: Abduction: Sailor Mercury
>>289928086Damn, we're really gonna lose one senshi per chapter?Did the sailors get abducted in the anime as well?
>>289928134>Did the sailors get abducted in the anime as well?Anime spoiler: Yes, but they get captured simultaneously and only for an episode or two. They spend the majority of the season (minus the anime original filler arc at the beginning of R) fighting Rubeus and his underlings, the latter of which all survive and get healed to go on living ordinary lives, unlike their manga counterparts.Manga spoiler: Venus does not end up getting captured, she's just that awesome.
>>289928263>Manga spoiler: Venus does not end up getting captured, she's just that awesome.Can she get any more perfect?
And that's it. It's all falling apart again.Are you the abductor or the abductee?
>>289928661Scary way to die I'd rather just be neither Thanks as always OP!
>>289928134I mean, it’s not like the other sailors did much
>>289928661Thanks, OP. Hopefully neither.
>>289927810I really don't see it.
>>289930042Why do you think Mako and Minako fangirled so hard there when he was glazing Mamoru? They’re the standin for the fujo audience Naoko was mocking.
>>289928601V shines once again.>>289928704It's still better than being lit on fire like Mars.I guess Jupiter will get shocked, but I'd be curious how they get Venus.
>>289928661Thank you for posting!
>>289928661I'm the innocent bystander
>>289928661I'm the protagonist with the troubled background who inadvertently ends up in a chase after the abductor.
>>289927810Not every instance of two males talking to one another or about one another is intended to be fujoshi bait.
>>289928311She could be the protagonist again.
>>289928158>still thinking chibiusa is a real little girl
>>289928223When would Tuxedo Mask have learned ventriloquism?
>>289928661Thanks, anonsito.
>>289928237Little lady makes way more sense as a localization.
>>289928342She is the fairest maiden.
>>289928380Why are boys so cute?
>>289934478Fujoshischizo will be a regular as much as she wants
>>289928394Strictly hetero
>>289928463She looks like a Mortal Kombat character.
>>289928492Just shitposting as harassment at this point.
>>289928514This villain was created based on whatever the mangaka read about in a trivia book the day before.
>>289928661They're all jobbers
>>289928492that pool...
>>289934478>Not every instance of two males talking to one another or about one another is intended to be fujoshi bait.Did you not see how Asanuma was blushing while he was praising Mamoru?
>>289919759She even got Usagi. Oh well I guess she's weak to hypnosis anyway.
>>289928297He's rather nonchalant about it
>>289934998He's the best at everything didn't you hear?
>>289935819Except they literally call her small lady in english in the anime.
>>289928297Wait when did he learn this?
>>289928367>vibe>in MY 90's manga
>>289939944Well his store blew up a few chapters ago, leaving a hole directly to the command center. They can't really hide that from him.
>>289936265Yeah it's called a handshake and saying something nice.
>>289930547Thats retarded.
>>289940027Simple gas explosion, nothing to see here.
>>289936733In the same scene that several girls squeed over him and where he later found Rei's hidden charms?
>>289928661>Are you the abductor or the abductee?Nice try, glowie.
>>289941495>several girls squeed over himWhat were they squeeing over him about? His praise and blushing for Mamoru.
>>289942236Him being a conscientious and polite cute younger boy.Makoto isn't thinking about Tuxedo when she's hugging him.
>>289935894Especially middle school boys.
