I do not own Sailor Moon. It is owned by Naoko Takeuchi.   1. Sailor Moon: A book that makes you hungry.  Several! I am a huge foodie so I read a lot of books centered around food. Two that come to mind are A Banh Mi for Two by Trinity Nguyen and  The Princess and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich  by Deya Muniz.  2. Sailor Mercury: A book that features science and technology. Two that come to mind are both by Margaret Peterson Haddix: Double Identity and Turnabout .  3. Sailor Venus: A book that makes you want to play video games. Bye Forever I Guess by Jodi Meadows.    4. Sailor Mars: A book inspired by mythology and folklore. Where the Mountain Meets the Moon by Grace Lin. 5. Sailor Jupiter: A book that gives you strong feelings I got several, but a re...

So we are all familiar with Sailor Moon (I assume), but have you ever read Minako Aino (Sailor Venus's) story before she met the rest of the Sailor Scouts? Well, here it is! Codename: Sailor V by Naoko Takeuchi is a manga duology on how Minako meets Artemis (the cat), and learns that she has an ultimate mission to fufill as a Sailor Guardian. She finds out what it is via fighting and defeating the bad guys that come after the citizens of Tokyo (and later other places!). The bad guys are from the Dark Agency, and their plan is to take over Earth and then destroy it.

I wish that one day Minako's story could get ani...

  Some other anime I like. Maybe you do too. Or these can be added to your to-watch list. 1. Lovely Complex This is a cute and funny contemporary romance anime about a teenage girl named Risa Koizumi who has been good friends with a guy in her class named Atsushi Otani for a while. She starts to feel romantic feelings towards him, but he doesn't reciprocate at first. Risa's friends and even Otani's friends constantly help Risa out to get closer to Otani, but it doesn't always work out smoothly. As more things get in her path, eventually Risa and Otani do become a couple.  This was such a funny and cute show! I remember a lot of laugh out loud funny scenes from this anime. This show will tug at your heartstrings. Oh yeah, and one of Risa and Otani's friends is a transgender girl and she's portrayed in a really positive manner. So there's good trans rep in this anime. (This is some minor transphobia at the beginning when the other characters find out she's...
