Anime Is Real

Here’s Russian figure skater Evgenia Medvedeva, world champion, record-holder, and 2018 Olympic gold medal favorite, performing as Sailor Moon.

Observation: The moment when she unveils the Sailor Senshi costume–while spinning, you’ll note–is the feminine equivalent of Clark Kent opening his suit jacket to reveal the big red S.

As a classic anime fan, I couldn’t help but picture this as a 26 episode series by Studio Deen made way back in 1992 or so.

      A clip from an episode of the anime followed by the show's opening theme.

    I knew someone who loved Sailor Moon and I'm sad now she never got to see it performed in the Olympics.
