In 1991, [[Manga KaMangaka]] [[Naoko Takeuchi]], at the time popular for her figure-skating manga ''[[The Cherry Project]]'', was offered the chance to do a one shot story about anything she wanted. Being a fan of both [[Magical Girl]] and [[Henshin Hero]] shows, she created ''Codename Sailor V'', intended to be a humorous one-off in which a girl was given [[Henshin Hero]] powers due to her connection to Venus, both the planet and the goddess.
 
This little one off caught the attention of [[Toei Animation]], who saw potential (and yen signs), and contacted Takeuchi with the view to expanding it into an anime, though one with more characters in the style of a Sentai show. Eventually that series became ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', a manga and anime that [[Adaptation Displacement|are far better known]].
