If you're a fan of Spy x Family, then picking up Blade of the Moon Princess Vol. 1 is a no-brainer decision.
. The first volume, which was originally released in Japan in 2010, is now available in English, and fans won’t have to wait too long for the second volume as it will be released in December. Overall, the coming-of-age series based on a Japanese folktale will span five volumes.“Defiant and vulgar, Princess Kaguya Takenouchi is not the heir to the moon’s Silver Court that her mother’s retainers had hoped for.
A manga series often lives or dies due to its protagonist. Thankfully, Kaguya Takenouchi is quite the likable one. She’s royalty who desperately wants nothing more than to be a normal girl rather than the future leader she was born to become. It’s not the most unique of circumstances, but Endo’s fantastic style and writing shine through in making her an enjoyable character who proves up to the task once her mother’s health begins to fail.
Blade of the Moon Princess has an interesting history as it was originally a one-shot manga that was released in 2000. It wasn’t until a decade later that the series went into full production, which is a good thing as it allowed Endo to develop his skills. The manga is beautifully illustrated, and the terrorist group that uses Tengu masks looks fearsome. For fans of Spy x Family, this serves as a look at Endo’s creative growth and his range, as it is quite different from his biggest hit.
Things really start getting interesting once Kaguya is forced off the moon and onto the “tainted world” — Earth. This version of Earth serves as a place of exile for criminals and suffers from famine, a far cry from the royal upbringing that Kaguya had. It’s the perfect place for Kaguya to grow as both a warrior and a person while also on the run from five elite assassins that the terrorists sent in pursuit.

Should the Next Big Observatories Be Built on the Moon?As the next round of giant observatories nears completion, astronomers are starting to ponder what comes next.

Still, solid ground, lower gravity, and potentially human astronauts are available to do maintenance and make upgrades. A new paper reviews different kinds of telescopes that could be built on the Moon and their unique advantages over Earth- or space-based instruments.
