August is the last month of 2003 which Takeuchi crafted an illustration for... unless mangastyle.net failed me this time. And, considering just how much extremely rare art that site hosted (some of which I’ve never ever seen anywhere else), I honestly doubt it.

I don’t know what to think about this particular artstyle except that it’s very original. Image credits to mangastyle.net.

Here we go with the 2003 Nakayoshi calendar, of which Takeuchi illustrated the first eight months! Image credits to mangastyle.net.

The remaining Sailor Warriors from the last postcard of this series. It’s a shame that, unlike the Inners, they didn’t get to be featured in their very own card! Image credits to mangastyle.net. Weirdly enough, while everyone else is in their Super forms, Saturn is wearing her regular uniform! But what may be even stranger is that ChibiMoon’s Super uniform has somehow got her regular form’s sleeves.

Anyway, Chibiusa was the only one to be reprinted on full page, and her illustration is featured as the first page of the Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Short Stories volume 1 of the shinsoban edition:

Production drawings for the Sailor Warriors’ Super uniforms and Princess outfits, along with the human forms of the cat family, coming from the seventh artbook. Image credits to mangastyle.net.

Production drawings for Haruka the crossdressing icon coming from the seventh artbook. Image credits to mangastyle.net.

Let’s get started with the settei of the Infinity saga! Here are production drawings for Uranus, Neptune and Pluto coming from the seventh artbook. Image credits to mangastyle.net.

The Outers over Tokyo. Nice. Image credits to mangastyle.net.

Someone must make an edit using the lesbian flag as the background. Image credits to mangastyle.net.

Happy birthday, Haruka!! May you spend a wonderful day with your precious Big Outers Family <3
