Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon or simply Sailor Moon is one of the most popular manga – anime of the nineties, released in December 1991, written and illustrated by Naoko Takeuchi, a work that became famous for popularizing the subgenre of magical girls and their sentai elements.

Serena, also known as Usagi Tsukino, is the current reincarnation of Princess Serenity and the civilian identity of Sailor Moon. Originally, she is a 19-year-old girl with a particular life: she spent her time reading manga, playing video games, and eating, unconcerned about her studies.
