I don't wait for anything.
I like to talk about the franchise in this forum and in a Brazilian Facebook group. I just happen to come by new announcements and artworks while interacting with fellow fans, but I don't follow official social media pages in order to know which women's franchise is gonna throw the new boring overpriced clothing collaboration.
Waiting for Sailor Moon stuff in 2022 is a waste of time and patience.

Why not November 1, for All Saints' Day? Since we always say it's the day of the dead, and this chapter of Sailor Moon Cosmos is deadly in every way.

Has any franchise had to wait this long between arcs already completed? I don't disagree with waiting but I was curious about the length of a wait for a series that has already been completed? The arcs have been done long ago and it's taking so many years to get through it, not to mention the inconsistency with the names and formats. I know it does take some time to wait because anime is not an overnight process but I would assume the process with Sailor Moon would be a bit faster since Pretty Cure and Dragon Ball pretty much have things churning out with content drops.

Nah, in this case it is not normal. This is not adaptation of an ongoing material. I am still wondering why they didn't simply started it as a full manga adaptation from the beginning a.k.a zenpen project the way they did for Fruits Basket or Dragon Quest - this is Sailor Moon, arguably the most popular magical show franchise globally, They knew from the get go a full adaptation is a given and it is happening, but it took ages as they for some reason started is a 26 episodes project instead of a 5 seasons series.

Dragon Ball Super had a 4 year gap between the Broly Movie and the new CGI movie being released this year. Long gaps happen. I don't even know why people are complaining in this instance since the turn around time between Eternal and Cosmos is smaller and we know when the films are getting released. Talk to Madoka fans who still don't even know when the new Walpurigs Night movie is being released and the story has been in a cliffhanger since 2013... 9 years ago.

I don't think it's just "the gap', it's the timeframe for an already completed manga. Even as the above case mentioned with shows like Initial D the manga was still ongoing. Both Dragon Ball Super, including movies and Puella are essentially new stories/content in the making. As far as I know Puella didn't start out as a manga, so I don't know if it or DBZ are still ongoing mangas or the animation is being adapted from these ongoing mangas.
Sailor Moon manga has been finished for eons. The original anime had 200 episodes and 3 movies that all fell in line one way or another and took 5 years.
Crystermos has a fraction of that and by the time we get to Cosmos it will have been 9 years...and depending on your country and how they release it... probably 10 or 10.5 years.
So my question was, has there been an anime with a completed manga (old work) that took this long to get through to reach the closing of its run?
Initial D has 48 volumes.
Sailor Moon has 18 or less.
They haven't taken the initiative to adapt any of the side/short stories of Sailor Moon in the new era either.
And this isn't a bash Crystal post as I still like it...just some chatter.

I hope we will get Usagi and Mamoru's wedding art in Valentine. They can create a new form of marriage certification too.

Btw new art revealed ( and it's not good ). It seems they will use the " Silver Moon Crystal Power Make up " line ( which was supposed to be a mistake ) instead of the Eternal Make up.

Tadano's art in Eternal so far has been BAD. She clearly delivered a much better work in the 90's than now. The only good art she made was in the settei ( character references ). The rest: initial artwork designs, official posters, bluray cover, etc... have been pretty irregular and cheap.

This is imo better than most of merchandise faces we had seen for eternal so far (like the recent collab with Waon). Style is a bit different though, if it’s Tadano, it looks like a bit like the face in the second promo poster with Neherenia. I don’t remember where it was teased to be drawn by Tadano though.

From what I know: all the official posters are drawn by the character designer of that season. Happened with Yukie Sako, Akira Takahashi and Tadano. Same with Cosmos I guess.
