コードネームはセーラーV [Kōdonēmu wa Sērā Bui] #1

This first volume of Code Name: Sailor V collects the opening chapters of Naoko Takeuchi's original magical-girl series, which serves as a direct prequel to Sailor Moon. It follows Minako Aino, a lively middle-school girl who is recruited by the talking cat Artemis to become the masked heroine Sailor V, fighting evil forces in Tokyo. The volume establishes the tone and mythology that would later expand into the more famous Sailor Moon saga.
