Thompson said fight scenes are not physical and "boil down to their
purest form of a clash of wills", which he says "makes thematic sense" for the manga. [144] Comparing the manga and anime, Sylvain Durand said the manga artwork is "gorgeous", but its storytelling is more compressed and erratic and the anime has more character development. Durand said "the sense of tragedy is greater" in the manga's telling of the "fall of the Silver Millennium," giving more detail about the origins of the Four Kings of Heaven and on Usagi's final battle against Queen Beryl and Metaria. Durand said the anime omits
information that makes the story easy to understand, but judges the anime as more "coherent" with a better balance of comedy and tragedy, whereas the manga is "more tragic" and
focused on Usagi and Mamoru's romance. [145] For the week of September 11, 2011, to September 17, 2011, the first volume of the re-released Sailor Moon manga was the best-selling manga on The New York Times Manga Best Sellers list, with the first volume of Codename: Sailor V in second place. [146][147] The first print run of the first volume sold out after four weeks. [148] In English-speaking countries, Sailor Moon developed a cult following among anime fans and male university students. [12] Patrick Drazen says the Internet was a new medium that fans used to communicate and played a
role in the popularity of Sailor Moon. [13]: 281 Fans could use the Internet to communicate about the series, organize campaigns to return Sailor Moon to U. S. broadcast, to share information about episodes that had not yet aired, or to write fan fiction.
