Heck yeah! According to this site, a special event will be held on July 6th to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Sailor Moon in Japan. (Obviously you'll need to tune in on the 5th to catch it) Attending the event will be Kono Mitsuishi (Sailor Moon) and Toru Furuya (Tuxedo Mask). It will be live broadcast at the following site: live.nicovideo.jp/gate/lv97379631 |

YES I SAW ANIME IS HAPPENING IM LIKE SCREAMING THIS IS MORE EXCITING THAN HS TRANSLATION ANNOUNCEMENT SOMEONE HELP MY TUMBLR IS ME CAPSLOCKING ENTHUSIASTICALLY LIKE I AM NOW edit: okay now that I have jumped around like a loon I am better able to articulate my thoughts on the reboot - pretty much, it's set that Mitsuishi is returning as Moon, and Furuya is basically a given as Tuxedo, but I'm curious how much of the original cast is also going to return, and how far the series will end up going. Takeuchi is having a direct hand in the anime this time around, thankfully, so of course that will change things up a little - also, I'm interested in how much the show's art style will match up hers, since we all know the original series had a different style than Takeuchi drew in. Also, Mitsuishi wrote on her blog: I’m itching to get back into performing this role again!
But the enemy this time isn’t the Dark Kingdom.
It’s my reckless past self. Curiouser and curiouser. But I'm still super excited because JUST IMAGINE THE ANIMATION QUALITY AAAAAAHHHHHH |

okay doubleposting but whatever. Anyway, I just watched the live event since Miss Dream subs posted it up on youtube. Couldn't understand shit besides a few things here and there so I kinda skipped to the meatier parts of the program (aka watching the guests come out and the musical performance and I spent a while ogling the host me-ow baby). I'm going to wait until Miss Dream posts the subs.
Mitsuishi is as cute as ever and sflksjdf CUTIE SAILOR MOON DOLL I JUST WAAAH. Furuya was dressed like a dork and I love him for it what a goofball.
As for Momiro Clover Z, who is apparently officially slated to do the new series' opening theme - wow, the cover they did of Moonlight Densetsu was so nasally it kind of hurt me. I'm not too sure but I think the two songs they performed were the OP and ED themes for the new series, too, so I guess this is why there's been such a hush as far as having a reairing of the series over here for the past year - this is something that's been in the making for a while.
I can't say I'm a fan of their live performances because they were kind of .. amateur, to put it nicely, but weren't near as nasally as when they sang MD (though lots of yelling into mics wow). The two songs they did were kind of steretypically bubbly and lighthearted and I can't say I hate them.
And if you want a taste of their music, well:
bodacious. What do you think about these girls doing the new OP and ED?

I like the voices of the purple and green girls. Even though I can't understand anything they were singing about, it seems like they've got a lot of energy, so that's good.

Just to clarify, I have no problem with Nico Nico... but they seem to always have the most recent news regarding topics of this nature.
My brother called me and sounded disappointed, I don't really know how to feel about all this... but I suppose this will be something worth checking out to see if this is truly a second coming?

Apparently so.
Also, Miss dream subs has posted up an English translation! I really like the host; he's all talking to the audience like "COME ON THIS IS THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY WE HAVE THE ACTUAL VOICE OF USAGI HERE DO YOU SEE THESE MANGA I HOLD UP THESE ARE ORIGINAL COPIES NOT SOME STUFF I WENT OUT AND BOUGHT AT A BOOKSTORE!!!!"
Also Mitsuishi is still the most adorable and fsdflkjg I WANT TO HUG HER?!! Anyway I'm going to continue watching this and get some more scoop.

Uh, anyway, clarifications?
The songs Momoclo performed were not the new theme at all, old works obviously. Voice actors are not set (so there's a chance we won't get any of the old cast, which would be a shame and rather upsetting to a chunk of the fandom, especially considering that many of them still are fairly active in the industry). Basically, nothing is set in stone and we're in for a buttload of surprises.
