Fans of one of anime's most popular magical series of all time have enjoyed a sort of renaissance of the last five years. Sailor Moon became relevant again when, for its 20th anniversary, a new anime series was announced. This began an avalanche, with a new manga edition release, a total of three anime seasons, a two-part anime film project underway, new musical productions, and every kind of merchandise tie-in under the sun.
Much of the new Sailor Moon merch has sold through the Bandai Premium online store, namely everything related to the series' beauty line, high end prop recreations, and collectible figures. Others, like designer apparel and fashion accessories, are stocked at Isetan stores.
There has yet to be a one-stop shop for the plethora of Sailor Guardian goods. That will change this week when the permanent Sailor Moon Store location opens in the Laforet Harajuku Department Store and Museum.
Located on the 0.5 basement floor, the shop will have two sections dedicated to both exclusive goods, limited edition items, and resale products. The shop is opening with an original line of iPhone cases, tote bags, handkerchiefs, konpeito candy, and more.
