Finally, we completed a portion of the Web site about why we do not want "The Other Name" to be used with the English-language version of the 1990's Sailor Moon anime. There are other arguments against the use of the name those on the Internet prefer, and we will add them as we think of them.
In other news, Naoko Takeuchi’s editor Fumio Osano has stated in English that it has not been decided as to what names will be used in a hypothetical English-language version of the new Sailor Moon anime. It was also suggested that that the choice to use a name other than "The Other Name" would be intentional. This means that in spite of what commentators have stated, the fight for Serena to keep her name is still very much alive. While we have mentioned we are neutral about the use of Serena in the new anime, we are not opposed to having it used, and having Serena in the new anime would make it more likely Serena would return if the old anime were re-licensed in English-speaking countries.
Let everyone know that we want Serena, and that we want her now!
