The
25th Anniversary Project of Sailor Moon has been officially announced with lots of new things to come. One of the more exciting announcements is a special performance of
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The Musical at AnimeMatsuri in Houston, Texas! This is a chance for American fans to get to see Sera Myu live without going to Japan.
The
announcement states:
We are pleased to announce that Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: The Musical is coming to Anime Matsuri 2017, to be held at GEORGE R. BROWN CONVENTION CENTER, Houston, from Friday, April 7, through Sunday, April 9. There will be a special performance by the Japanese cast of 9 Sailor Guardians joined by Tuxedo Mask to officially commemorate the establishment of “April 7th” as Sailor Moon Day in Houston.

So it appears to not be a full musical but I’m guessing possibly a concert like performance, maybe similar in fashion to the fankans of the old Myus.
Exciting times for Myu fans, old and new alike!
