Sailor Moon S: Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus
You don’t need expensive wigs to cosplay like a pro! This is a lovely picture of Neptune and Uranus (their human names escape me).
There have been a lot of controversy about these two. USA nearly banned Sailor Moon because these two were in a lesbian relationship. They changed the script (with the original author’s consent) so that they are cousins instead.
But, I think they are in such a situation that… Well, Sailor Uranus seemed to be a guy when he was still in Moon Kingdom (ruled by Sailor Moon’s mother). Proof of this is that there are short scenes showing Neptune and Uranus together, and Uranus was wearing a Prince’s clothing and he was obviously male. I believe Uranus and Neptune were engaged, but they never got to marry because of the war. Their rebirth resulted in a dilemma that Uranus was now a girl.
Kinda sad, don’t you think?
But really, I don’t know what the concept behind the artist’s story telling is… I just really like Sailor Moon when I was really young…

Aww.. Yup, that’s sad. I mean, they were once lovers and then, things changed. Or something like that. Hahaha:D Anyway, I also liked Sailor Moon when I was younger!

I think a lot of people loved Sailor Moon at one point in time… though they refuse to admit it. ^_^

I’ve heard that Uranus was always a girl, since Sailor Soldiers are only girls. Otherwise, that’s a nice cosplay.

Ah really? Perhaps what I hear about them was only a mere rumor.
Thanks for the info!
