For those of us who can’t make it to either Tokyo or Paris this time round, there are more opportunities to catch Sailor Moon live. There will be a new stage musical on the way in Summer 2019 featuring the girls from Nogizaka46 as Sailor Moon characters!
And if you can’t make it to that either… Well, there’s always staring at the visuals and crying in a corner. (Sobs!)
