Sailor Moon’s Cultural Impact Has Made It a Global Phenomenon

Without a doubt, Sailor Moon is one of the most successful manga franchises ever created. It not only set new standards for literature within its genre but continues to influence creativity and culture even decades after it first appeared. First published in 1991, the series had already sold over a million copies by 1995, and by the time the franchise celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2012, it had sold an impressive 35 million copies worldwide.

Naoko Takeuchi served as an influential source for many writers and artists, ultimately giving rise to other notable anime and manga giants such as “Magic Knight Rayearth”, “Pretty Cure”, and “Wedding Peach”. Both the Toei animated series and the original manga made a significant mark on the emerging Western anime scene, earning the title of “the most significant breakthrough” in the English-dubbed anime market at that time.

The anime has left a significant mark on Western animators and creatives, being referenced in shows like “Steven Universe”, the 2018 reboot of “She-Ra” and “Craig of the Creek”. Similar to how “Dragon Ball” became a beloved classic among shonen fans, “Sailor Moon” has become an iconic work that transcends the boundaries of the anime and manga industry in terms of its relevance and influence.
