PGSM (2003) Fan Fiction Sequel Season Launched!

[ThatNerdDave]

Although I've been a writer most of my adult life (comic books, mostly), I've never actually written fan fiction. My love for the live-action Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon show has caused me to write fan fiction for the first time.

I am writing a full second season for PGSM. I'm sure I'm not the first person to do so, but I do hope my approach is somewhat unique.

So far, I’ve posted a primer for the show (Act 0 - The Story So Far) and the first episode (Act 1 - A Certain Future). I plan to release new episodes monthly. The rest of the season is already outlined, and Act 2 - An Inner Light is about half finished.

I've put a lot of effort into crafting something that carries on the spirit of PGSM: true to the base concept of the manga while doing its own thing. I even enlisted some Photoshop wizards to help me "redesign" the original cast outfits and also edited opening and closing credits for this new season of PGSM.

I'd be honored if you would give it a look. I poured decades of love for Sailor Moon into this little fan-project.

Here's the link to the opening credits.

Feel free to ask me any question you might have, as well! I’ll do my best to discuss and explain my choices for the story.

For those curious to read more, here’s the opening scene of Act 1 - A Certain Future:


It’s all gone. They’re all dead.

The white-clad figure walked across the surface of the moon in slow, measured steps. There was no atmosphere, yet he needed no protective gear. He was beyond such petty concerns now. His steps made no sound.

He stopped, then hunkered down. A single white glove sifted through the dirt, as if he hoped to find a sign of life hidden there. Nothing, of course. Nothing would ever grow here again.

He closed his eyes and conjured up memories from long ago. The palace, resplendent in its glory. The sweet scent of moon lilies in spring. The princess, a vision of beauty.

He sighed. His revenge was nearly at hand. Only one task remained. He stood and turned to face his destination.

The planet Earth rose across the moon’s horizon. He gazed at it with hatred in his heart.

“Come.”

A dark silhouette, not a man but a thing, appeared behind him.

”You know what to do?”

The creature screeched. It was an inhuman sound. In another life, he thought, that sound would have made his blood run cold.

“Then go.”

The creature bowed, then disappeared.

Soon, Earth will be mine, and its people will die screaming.

For the first time in millennia, the white-clad figure allowed a smile to dance across his lips…
