Sailor Moon Scheduled to be Aired Three Times a Day in Japan!

Pages for Sailor Moon are coming up pretty quickly! We have just learned from ANIMAX that Sailor Moon will be airing three times a day - mid-morning, afternoon, and primetime. The show has also been added to a special section on the site entitled "Anime for Girls" (though we think a lot of the series they have listed have a much wider appeal). Yoshihiro Togashi's Hunter x Hunter is also scheduled to air three times a day as well, more on that later.

Sailor Moon Schedule for Weekdays, beginning September 1st:

10:00 AM - Dragon Ball Z

Hunter X Hunter will air 3 times a day, at 4:00 AM, 10:30 AM, and at 7:30 PM. A new episode will air in the evening during primetime, and will be repeated in the wee hours of the morning at 4:00 AM and also at 10:30 AM. We wonder if Yoshihiro and Naoko will record the morning broadcast so that they can watch their shows together with their son?
