Drops of Moonlight Zine: A 30th Anniversary Sailor Moon Fan Project

Because Sailor Moon is a Millennial like so many of us, next year she will have been around for 30 years. And because that’s HUGE, we’re gonna make a huge deal out of it, and we want you all to contribute!

Together, collaboratively, we are planning a friggin monster of a zine. A fan book. A bilingual fan book in both English and Japanese, by both English- and Japanese-speaking fans. A tribute to the show. Our theme? Post-canon. Everything and anything about these characters and this fandom since the curtain fell on all iterations of canon.

We want fics and fanart and doujinshi (fan manga) about what our favorite characters have been up to since Stars or the end of PGSM or even Parallel Sailor Moon. We want essays about anything from Sailor Moon’s impact on both your life and your culture to what fandom spaces have been up to in the past 30 years. We want cosplay photo love stories of adult Hotaru and Chibs, and we want documented walk-throughs of your Sailor Moon collection and what these pieces mean to you. We want it all and more.

So yes. This is gonna be big. It’s gonna be zine-exclusive, and it’s all for charity: All proceeds of this project that exceed its production costs will be donated in full to Archives of our Own and the Organisation for Transformative Works.

Are you interested? Are you with us? We’re super excited, and we want you all to be a part of this, every corner of the fandom!

In 1995, Bandai released a Sailor Moon arcade game. Naoko Takeuchi herself supervised the game and the Senshi’s voice actresses reprised their character roles. In addition, the game animated several attacks only seen in the manga.
