Not really a single work per se; there isn't even an official title. This page is about a series of threads on RPG.net -- something falling into a bizarre gap between a recap and an AlternateContinuity.
One day, Shadowjack, an anime fan with almost no prior experience with ''SailorMoon'' (limited to the first dozen episodes and knowledge of two jokes about the English dub), started recapping the series episode by episode, similar in format to an AbridgedSeries in ScriptFic form.
What followed... was a surprisingly original take on the source material, shining with appropriate humor and insight into the theme and characters. The recaps themselves started very short, but grew increasingly detailed and peppered with in-jokes as time went on. Furthermore, Shadowjack started with almost no knowledge of ''Sailor Moon'' canon ''or'' fanworks, and his interpretation is thus entirely free of the {{fanon}} that's been built up around the series — leaving him and the other RPG.net forumites free to come up with entirely new fanon, for example, Naru's mother being [[spoiler:Queen Beryl]].
One constant feature of this series have been periodic summary comics, in which the characters themselves comment on the events so far in a NoFourthWall way. These, too, have been getting increasingly elaborate from season to season.
Currently the recaps have reached roughly the middle of the S series.
An index for all episodes is maintained on [[http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2133352/shadowjack.html this page]], and [[http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2133352/shadowjack_js.html this one]] lets you go directly from one episode to another without having to open new tabs, but for the best experience, it is recommended to start [[http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?468442-In-Which-I-Watch-Sailor-Moon at the beginning of the first thread]] and read through everything, including the recap posts themselves and everyone else's posts. Yes, the threads are ''long''.
'''Note to editors:''' Since the author himself or someone following the forum threads in a spoiler-free manner could be browsing this article, please spoiler-tag anything not yet revealed as of the latest recapped episode.

Instead, it takes all the "feminine" girly stuff like frilly princess dresses and pink unicorns and ''makes them into implements of power''. The hypothetical girl in the audience is being told that she can be ''as girly as she likes'' and ''still'' dream of growing up into power and responsibility. Feminine articles are not shackles or playthings to be eschewed, or tools good only for obtaining the approval of men -- they are treated as cool and desirable things, in and of themselves.
--> Boy craziness is even part of this, in the way they make the knightly romance fantasy an ''active one''. The girls wanna be swept off their feet by a handsome knight, and, damn it, they're gonna go out there and ''find'' that handsome knight and make sure he does it.
