You may be asking yourself, what is Parallel Sailor Moon and what does it have to do with Kousagi? Well all those questions and more will come to rest hopefully by the end of this article.

For those of us who like the manga more then the anime subed or dubed, will know that in the last volume #18 Eternal Sailor Moon/Usagi saves her friends once again and becomes the ultimate form of her future-self Sailor Cosmos. She is given a choice to either return as a senshi or be a normal girl again. She wakes up in the arms of Mamoru, who is now her husband and she asks him to ask that question again. The question of course is, "Usa marry me?"

We are then taken to the chapel were we see Usagi and Mamoru in their wedding clothes kissing. Then we see the other senshi in wedding gear with smile on their faces. The last shot in the manga we see is of Usagi and Eternal Sailor Moon side by side almost as Mamoru says that she will live forever.

That is were Naoko leaves us off, well as I recently found out the sixth artbook which was released in 1999, last year has a small comic in the back and it explains Usagi's life. The things in pink are my comments, what is italicized were taken off a site. As taken from SweetUsagi.com:

The year is 1999 in the month of July...

Sailor Moon/ Usagi is married to Mamoru, of course, and she doesn't have a job. Usagi's last name, Tsukino, was kept as the family name. They have a daughter named Kousagi, who loves to eat food even if it was found laying on the ground(Like mother like daughter,uhu?) and she is scared of cats. Kousagi is in the 3rd grade.

Just her luck in this chapter, Kousagi meets a pure pink cat that looks suspiciously like Chibichibi with cat ears and whiskers when she morphs into a human). The pink cat tells her that she must save the planet from a new enemy (which turns out to be a massive bunny head made of thousands of smaller bunny heads ). She is resistant until the catgirl tells her that the other senshi the children will be under her control if she does morph into sailorform. Kousagi likes this idea because the others always run away from her or boss her around. She agrees and the catgirl tells Kousagi to say Parallel Moon Power Make Up!! Suddenly, Kousagi becomes a Sailorsenshi in sailor-fuku adorned with miniature bunny heads.

Kousagi has no real attacks, but she defeats the massive bunny head monster by creating a huge mountain cat from a bunch of small cats, which then swallows the massive bunny head whole. When it is all over, all the children wake up on the floor of the cooking class to the sound of a very angry Michiru. Was it a dream? If it was, then why is the pink kitty winking at Kousagi after she wakes up?(Umm.. where have we seen this before?*Cough,cough*)

Chibiusa is still living in the past with everyone so she must play older sister to Kousagi, even though Kousagi is the older sister in the normal timeline.At this time, both Hotaru and Chibiusa are both in 3rd year of middle school. They both wear glasses now and are very smart. Chibiusa even says she wants to go to the same high level schools as Ami /Sailor Mercury.

Sailor Venus/Minako is married to a comedy assistant director, and he helps Minako get more signatures from her favorite idols. Minako has a tatoo of a winged heart on her right arm. Minako's last name, Aino, was kept as the family name. They have a daughter. Her name is Mina, and she is in the 3rd grade.

Sailor Mercury/Ami is an assistant doctor and she is married. They kept Ami's last name, Mizuno, as the family name. They have a daughter, named Ami, who loves to play on her computer and is in the 3rd grade.

Sailor Mars/Rei is a preistess and shodou teacher and she is married to a school teacher who is also a preist in a shrine. Rei's last name, Hino, was also kept as the family name. They have daughter also named Rei.

Sailor Jupiter/Makoto is the manager of her own store and her husband of 7 years helps her with it, but it has only been a month and she isn't doing well in the business yet. She lived with her husband 2 years before they were married. They kept Makoto's last name as the family name, Kino. They have a daughter named Mako.

Setsuna, Haruka, and Michiru run their own cooking classes, which all the senshi's children attend.

Now that all has been said. If, KoUsagi is actually in 1999 that means that when Crystal Tokyo comes along she will be much older then Chibi-Usa. She, kind of looks like, a small version of Sailor Cosmos a bit, don't you agree? We always have seen (for those that have read the manga) that Small Lady is an only child and that the Queen can only bare one child but whatever the case maybe for Naoko throwing this in there one has to admit it is entertaining. At least we know what happens before the earth is silenced in frozen darkness and the crystal Ethiopia is born.
