I wrestled a Vong once

Just a guy trying to tell a story. And it’s side stories. And maybe it’s sequel.

Miyuu posted on her Instagram that she had gone to see the Sailor Moon Shining Theater Shinagawa Tokyo stage play!

Translation of her post:

🌙✨The other day, I went to see the "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon -Shining heater Shinagawa Tokyo-".✨🌙 It truly was absolutely amazing…!! The very moment I entered the venue, I was immersed in the world of Sailor Moon I was so excited even before the show started.💖 And then, th emoment the Sailor Senshi appeared―― I could not stop tearing up🥹🌙 The cast was truly captivating, and each Sailor Senshi looked as if they had stepped right out of the series itself✨ I was absolutely enchanted by their radiant presence💖 I was of course moved by the world of Sailor Moon unfolding before my eyes, But memories of my time in the Sailor Moon live action had also suddenly came rushing back at me… The time spent with my friends, the days dedicated to working on the show, the joy and nervousness I had felt back then、 so many memories flooded me one after another、 my heart was filled to the brim. It was as if my past self and present self were connected, It was an unbelievable, special moment✨ The story unique to this theater was truly wonderful, The love and friendship that is so characteristic of Sailor Moon, And the strength to believe in you comrades always moved me🌙💕 The live performance part was even more thrilling!! Even after the show ended, I couldn't shake off the afterglow for a while.🥹 By the way, in the first photo, I was so overcome with nostalgia I had to strike the same pose I did in the live action.🌙✨ I’m grateful all the cast members had welcomed me so warmly.🥰 And this time, I was also very happy that Rina Koyama, who’s from the same agency as me, is playing Sailor Moon.💖 To me, Sailor Moon is an irreplacable and precious part of my life. Even now, after all these years, I’m truly happy that it continues to be loved by so many people just as it always has, and that I, too, can still be moved by this world.🌙✨ In the name of the Moon, I received so much happiness and inspiration.✨ Thank you for such a wonderful time.💖 I still fully express all these feelings in words.🥹✨ The rest will be in the fan club, where I would like to talk slowly.🌙💖

Almost done with the current chapter, maybe I’ll drop it this weekend 😌

[iwrestledavongonce]

Work on the current chapter goes on, I wanted to finish it before the end of May but that’s probably not going to happen. Anyways, get ready for a little slice of life involving our favorite goddess of love/ hot mess/ young doctor as well as grandpa being grandpa.

Naoko Takeuchi visiting the Kennedy Space Center in the 1990s and meeting an astronaut! She was visiting the Center to do research for her Sailor Moon side story, "The Lover of Princess Kaguya," which was later turned into the Sailor Moon S Movie.

Decades later, when a plushie of Artemis was spotted in the mission control center during the Artemis II mission, Naoko expressed surprise and delight:

“In the manga, he’s the little cat who sends instructions to the Sailor Guardians from the command room,” she said. “That was just a fantasy that existed only in the story, so to think that 30 years later Artemis would appear in NASA’s mission control, a place I’ve always admired, is incredible. I’m so jealous. Thank you for watching over humanity’s great achievement for ten days. You did a wonderful job.”

“I’m overwhelmed that a classic from 35 years ago is still being talked about around the world,” she said. “I’m so happy. It may have been an immature work, but I’m amazed to realize that classics can become timeless across generations. Manga, anime, live action—it’s such a blessing that this work continues to be shared in so many forms.”

Maybe Gramps is getting soft in his old days.

While our two brides enjoy their honeymoon somewhere in the Galaxy far far away, we change the spotlight to our new favorite spot firer, his blonde bombshell and an old man who realizes something about his granddaughter’s acquaintance.

Finally made it to the last scene of the chapter! We’re getting there folks!

[iwrestledavongonce]

Always good to have a trusted Minako around when you almost throw away your champagne glass after seeing your wedding gift.

[iwrestledavongonce]

After getting absorbed into one of the most vivid and vibrant metropoles of the world I finally continued writing. In the midst of the wedding scene right now ;-)

[iwrestledavongonce]

Work on the current chapter is going on, just slower as I’m on holidays abroad.

[iwrestledavongonce]

I decided against dividing the current chapter into two parts, which means you have to wait longer for it to drop tho. But the Bachelorette Party Part is done and I just started the wedding part so I’m hoping to get it out in March still ;)

[iwrestledavongonce]

Guess who has the crazier Bachelorette-Party 😉

Also been thinking about to cut the chapter into two, with one leading up to the wedding and the other being the wedding itself. Not sure yet, though.

Dear fellow writers, am I the only maniac waking up at 5am with a ton of ideas and sentences in my head, preventing me from sleeping again or do you guys experience that as well?

[iwrestledavongonce]

Haruka is not amused that SunTzu is way too friendly with Countess Tenoh. Meanwhile SunTzu knows that it’s driving Haruka furious that he’s overly friendly and flirty to her mother and thinks it’s hilarious. As you can guess, we’re going into the wedding preparations.

This chapter has a honorable mention of the Neo Queen’s shoes. And probably not in the way you’re thinking of.
