I was trawling about for news about the new Sailor Moon Crystal, and found this little tidbit about Viz, the company who's producing it.
Namely, that they acquired the rights to the entire Sailor Moon catalog (all seasons, 3 movies, unedited) with plans to release them both in subtitled and eventually (newly) dubbed form.
Needless to say, actually seeing the old shows may soon be a lot easier than it has been in decades, given the crazy rights spillover of different seasons, and I'm seriously intrigued to see what some of the more modern voice actor talent these days could make of a new Sailor Moon dub (particularly one not deviating so sharply from the source material).

waste."
