We all know Sailor Moon- wither as a passing fancy from your childhood, waking up at 6am every Saturday to watch it, or it's your current obsession. We've seen her drawn and redrawn throughout the ages, cosplayers (both women AND men) dress like her, doodle her on little scraps of paper, and make fun of the famous catch phrase, "In the Name of the Moon, I will punish you!". Most of even know the words to her classic theme song "Fighting evil by Moonlight!" She's a part of our culture.

And now, a month and a half after the first announcement was made, the winners can be announced…

Alright- onto main awards
I couldn’t help myself, there were too many votes for good things. Therefore I also awarded a fourth and fifth place. Even though there were MANY beautiful designs, there were a few that kept surfacing as the best designed and most true to the spirit of the contest. After a little back and forth, the final Five have been chosen:
