I can't still believe it, Sailor Moon is going to be aired again on the Mediaset Channel Hiro (a brand new channel)!!!!

More info on the channel:

http://www.mediasetpremium.mediaset.it/ ... hiro.shtml

In a recent interview on the italian site Anime Fun (http://animefun.forumcommunity.net/?t=29955204), Fabrizio Margaria (the channel director) said that Sailor Moon is going to be aired again!!!!!

The interview will be released next week!

Some words from him:

"Dopo lungo lavoro di convincimento, hanno sbloccato i diritti quindi confermo che dal 2010 l’intera serie sarà di nuovo in onda."

"After a long work, the rights was released, I can confirm it, the series will be aired again next year"

The rights was released!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The italian fandom is crazy!

Stay tuned for more info!

The Queen is back!

Italians are so lucky, I've seen the italian version before on youtube, the theme music is awesome, especially R & S themes.

This is awesome! I was upset when I last went to visit my family in Italy, none of my younger cousins knew Sailor Moon. Now they can watch the series!

I love the Sailor Moon Italian dub, despite some of the censoring. Is Sailor Moon airing anywhere else in the world?

Lady Aino · **Posted:** Wed Jul 29, 2009 12:33 am

With a tinge of Italian blood in me, I'm happy for all my fellow Italian moonies. :lol:

Hope more countries will get their chance to watch Sailor Moon back on TV. Newer generations need to see true legends in action. :keke:

Toy Soldier · **Posted:** Wed Jul 29, 2009 12:37 am

I'll keep you guys updated, and, no, I don't think SM is currently airing anywhere else in the world.

The most important thing is that the rights has been released, so we can expect more official stuff such as dvds, manga reprint, toys, etc!!!

I'm dying....

totally agreed with you!

I hope this leads to America being able to air it again, even if it's the dic dub.

Yeah, even I'll accept the DiC/Cloverway dub at this rate. I just want quality anime put back on TV, and Sailor Moon is the top of the heap in that department for me.

For now, I'm just happy for every Italian Moonie right now. Pure jubilation! :love:

Like Toy said, having SM back on TV in general, is a really good sign of things to come.

Mercurylover · **Posted:** Wed Jul 29, 2009 12:48 am

Okay, if they were able to get the rights released to them then I believe that Funimation has an even better chance to get the Re-dubbing rights here in the US!

Exactly, thank you Lady Aino.

One small step for moonies, one giant leap for moonie-kind.

I wonder, then, if that Italian book was released in anticipation of the series re-airing?

Sounds like they've been fighting for the rights for a while

This is pretty huge news!

Awesome news. Now for Canada......

Come on YTV, bring back the magic.

i wish we could get in touch with the tv station and asked them how they did it!

The good news: There's hope for the rest of the world, and Sailor Moon is resurrected
The bad news: A whole new generation gets introduced into the Three Lights whose twin sisters replace them in order to fight evil :roll:

When you say the rights were released, does that means that they received a license for the show? Released can sometimes mean something different in English; as in, they expired...

Anyway I've updated Genvid's front page accordingly.

These are my thoughts... is it true? The rights aren't locked down?

Toy Soldier · **Posted:** Wed Jul 29, 2009 1:47 am

Yes, seems like they received the license to broadcast it, that's what the channel director said, the full interview is still not available. Seems like the rights are unlocked now.
Thank you so much for posting it on you site.

It's not that bad. It's not like in the CWI dub, where we needed to be reminded every 10 minutes Uranus and Neptune were cousins. P-:

true, I'll even take that instead of the CWI version.

I almost peed myself when I read this.
Almost.
I hope it works out.

In a way, the Italian dub is comparable to the SuperS dub. Pretty faithful, just with name changes, and some minor censoring. Of course, the voices in the Italian dub are alot better. P-:

Wow!! This is great news!! After all that pushing, they finally unlocked the rights!

Sailor Moon shall be broken free from that crystal they kept her in for so long.

Some background info about the Italian dub at WikiMoon:

Let's see how it'd be received in Italy, & how this might in turn change things beyond that country.

Maya · **Posted:** Wed Jul 29, 2009 7:00 am

Nani?!
Thats great news for Italy, now lets get SM back to the US, Canada and Australia (and other countries)
But I can wait for the redub first... ^_^'

Sailor T · **Posted:** Wed Jul 29, 2009 8:25 am

I hope this is the beginning of the rebirth of Sailor Moon!

:love:

Yay! I'm so happy, and my heart even raced for a minute there, I'm not normal. P-:

I hope that opens up the opportunity for other countries as well, we desperately need it to come back in Sweden, so we can get S, SuperS and Stars dubbed, plus the movies of course. ^_^

On what Italian channel they will broadcast it (on cable tv I think I've got some Italian channels).
