I am so happy you are reading the Sailor V manga, I honestly go to it as a pick-me-up more than any other SM canon because it’s just RIDICULOUS sometimes. Some of the dialogue between Minako and Artemis is so bizarre. Plus Minako switching to Sailor V just to scold people on the street for “blocking foot traffic” is too accurate to her character.

I’m happy too! I sort of love that not only is the franchise just getting on its feet, but Minako herself is just getting on her feet as a soldier. Hence, the over-abuse of the disguise pen and transformation powers. It’s also no secret that I greatly appreciate Artemis’s prominence in this series. 

I’ll probably read chapter 8 tomorrow and finish up the first Sailor V book, hopefully with more Artemis 

and less random bitter man

It gets funnier if you think this wasn’t an error on Takeuchi’s part but the possibility that Minako got conned at the gift shop when she bought that rug.

Salesman: Don’t you want to bring back a GENUINE, BONA FIDE Ancient Greek fine woven tapestry to your very own home?

Minako: I’m pretty sure Greek was never a pictorial language at any stage in its linguistic evolution, and this is just a larger-than-average placemat. 

Salesman: It’s only $7.99.

Minako: OH SWEET

better question: why is this souvenir from ancient Egypt 

Minako: AN ENEMY HAS APPEARED

Minako: QUICK, DISGUISE PEN, MAKE ME LOOK SUPER HOT

DID THESE TWO POOR OLD HISTORICAL RUIN FANATICS JUST BREAK THE ACROPOLIS 

With Minako in Greece, it would be a wasted opportunity for her not to find a statue of Aphrodite and share a meaningful glance with the chiseled marble silhouette 

… and then compare chest sizes with it because this is Minako we’re talking about

Poor thing, being forced to go to the ancient cultural epicenter of the world instead of a beach.

Sailor V: Whoops we boarded the flight to Greece for a police inspection conference

Police: Whoops there are empty seats left on the Hawaii flight we should follow Sailor V there

Wacky Hijinks: *ensue*

This is like an international equivalent of a Scooby Doo chase scene
