By definition, Sailor Moon underwear isn't going to be realistic. The Sailor Moon characters wear sailor suits, not lingerie. But these satin threads are officially licensed, so that counts for something!
According to website Natalie, Japanese lingerie company Peach John is teaming up with the famed anime and manga series for a line of Sailor Moon-inspired undergarments to celebrate the franchise's 20th anniversary.
Besides monogrammed bras and panties, there are "Turn into Sailor Moon Bra Sets" for characters Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Moon, Sailor Mars, and Sailor Venus.
Each is priced 4,980 yen (US$48) and available for order in Japan from today until December 25. Orders will be delivered in late February. Sailor Moon will live on.
Update: After selling out in a day (well before its Christmas cutoff), Peach John's Sailor Moon underwear will go on sale again in Japan to the general public on February 19. The lingerie's sale won't be for a limited time only, and if you weren't able to secure a pair this month, it should hopefully be easier then.
