The article became a GA on time. I assume good faith on a few of the references. A QPQ has been completed. All hooks are directly cited (I took care of one). My only issue is that reference 44 is unreliable considering any user can submit their reviews to the website. SL93 (talk) 04:53, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Thanks. I am approving ALT2 because I feel that Sailor Moon, being one of the most known anime still today, will help bring viewers along with the definition of the genre. SL93 (talk) 18:01, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
