Manga Review: Pretty Guardain Sailor Moon Vol.2

                                      Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Vol.2 Review

This volume begins with Usagi discovering that Mamoru is actually Tuxedo Mask and he already knows that she is Sailor Moon. Usagi and Mamoru seem to grow a bit closer in this volume and there are quite a few moments were they cutely flirt with each other in the first half of this volume. It's also discovered in this volume that Usagi is the reincarnation of Princess Serenity and that Mamoru is the reincarnation of Prince Endymion who was Princess Serenity's lover who was killed in front of her and who's death drove her to take her own life.

In this volume Sailor V is revealed to be Sailor Venus the leader of the sailor scouts but in this life goes by the name of Minako there actually not all that much revealed about her within this volume. In a battle with the last of Queen Beryl's servants the legendary sliver crystal is formed from Sailor Moons tears after Tuxedo Mask is injured in her place the power of the crystal is able to heal him but his taken prisoner by the dark kingdom.

In this volume we learn that Queen Beryl wants the legendary sliver crystal in order to revive Queen Metalia who was the one who brought destruction to the moon kingdom many years ago. The dark kingdom ends up brainwashing Mamoru and using him as weapon in order to get back the legendary sliver crystal and at the end of the volume Queen Beryl has gotten the legendary sliver crystal and is vowing to kill all of the sailor scouts.

I overall really liked this volume and I liked how much plot development happened in this volume. I still really like the artwork but brainwashed Mamoru looked a little silly at times. Please tell me your thoughts on this volume.
