Sailor Moon: The Series Signifigance to the West

Sailor Moon has played a crucial role in modernizing Western animation for younger audiences. The series has had literally everything working against it and it still managed to resonate with the queer community myself included. While the magical girl trend took root in European media in the 2000s it was not until the 2010s when it took root in far western media. This is in no small part thanks to Cartoon Network. Frankly I am not familiar enough with the American animation industry to say much more than that but a lot of talented wonderful creators are developing fantastic properties in American animation for youth right now with feminist and minority rights movements experiencing a new wave in the United States finally. Sailor Moon among other magical girl series in the 1990s ingluenced an entire generation of young creators who will go on to influence and inspire other young creators as time goes on. Time simply keeps churning foward relentlessly to how anyone feels.
