the art here is gorgeous. pretty guardians, indeed. 

i loved how this dived more into the mystery/spiritual aspect than the show has (so far, i'm still on season one, and have now read past my point in the show, so this might change!!) and the way it discusses/touches on reincarnation is fascinating; i can't wait to read more of that going forward.

bonus, it was gayer than i expected, this early on. i now understand why people ship rei/usagi, lol.
