# Anime-Inspired Disney Heroines Artist Drachea Rannak Gives Disney Characters Sailor Moon Makeovers By Meghan Young | Published 2014-01-22 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drachea-rannak References: [nerdapproved](http://nerdapproved.com/movies/disney-heroines-as-sailor-moon-characters/) & [facebook](https://www.facebook.com/pages/Drachea-Rannak/116180445083574) Artist Drachea Rannak combines two iconic cartoon franchises into one: Sailor Moon and Disney. Unlike [Manon Yapari](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-princesses-sailor-moon), who also tackled the same theme, Drachea Rannak incorporated the Disney princesses and heroine's iconic garbs into the design of the crime-fighting anime character's costumes. Extremely well-executed, the Disney heroines may still look very much like their original states, but they take on the characteristics of Sailor Scouts perfectly, right down to their stances. From [Ariel and Tiana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-the-little-mermaid-collection) to Esmerelda and Jessie, no character is left untouched by Drachea Rannak. While the Disney franchise continues to pump out strong female protagonists, hopefully series such as Drachea Rannak's will encourage studios to revisit the Sailor Moon phenomena again. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 59% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Anime-inspired Disney Characters:** Opportunity for the creation of unique crossover merchandise that combines the popularity of Disney with the aesthetic of anime. - **Iconic Costume Designs:** Potential for the development of innovative fashion collaborations that incorporate elements from well-known animated characters. - **Reviving Franchises:** Possibility of reviving nostalgic franchises like Sailor Moon and introducing them to a new generation through creative reinterpretations. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion and Merchandise:** Opportunity for fashion brands and merchandisers to collaborate on unique clothing and accessory lines inspired by the fusion of Disney and Sailor Moon. - **Animation and Entertainment:** Potential for studios to explore crossover collaborations between popular cartoon franchises to attract a wider audience and fan base. - **Art and Illustration:** Opportunity for artists to create and sell fan artworks that reimagine beloved characters in new and exciting ways. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dairytale Bridal Tributes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1.md) - [Diverse African Doll Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creativesoul.md) - [Opulent Anime Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jimmy-choo-x-sailor-moon.md) - [Whimsical Character-Inspired Statement Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney.md) - [Soft-Colored Disney Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinderella-capsule.md) - [Sparkling Detailed Princess Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/american-girl-doll-1.md) - [Fairytale-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection.md) - [Reimagined Beloved Character Comics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marvel-and-disney.md) - [Villainous Bridal Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allure-bridals-disney-bridal-gowns.md)
