Introduction:
If you have not been offended by the time you have finished reading this story, then you must be dead. Which doesn't really matter, since death is a fairly inconsequential event herein.

Mark Page (otherwise known as Dark Day for Anime) manages to find the darkest aspects of Sailor Moon. He tells a story of ancient kingdoms and rivalries, where the greatest heroes are merely pawns and absolutely nothing is what it seems. And through it all runs a note of underhanded absurdity.

Well-written, dark, difficult to follow, dark, well-edited, dark, long, dark...
