Episode 1: Codename Mooncakes - Sailor Moon

Welcome to the first episode of Ruining Our Childhood. We're kicking it off with one of the biggest cultural phenomena of the 90s/00s because we did not think this through and definitely should have chosen "go home" instead of "go big." Oh well, too late now!

How does Sailor Moon hold up today? Listen to find out.
