Perez, who goes by SparkleArmy in the artist forum DeviantArt, brought together two favorites, Golden Girls plus Sailor Moon, to create some powerhouse art with attitude.

Perez hones in on a girl-power sensibility to combine the dry wit of the Florida Foursome with the equally empowering anime supergirls.

The series titled Beautiful Guardians Golden Girls is both artistically uplifting and sassy. Each character seems perfectly in her place wearing her own take on a Japanese-school-girl ensemble (with a bit of Miami class). Stanley Zbornak cleans up alright in his own "Tuxedo Mask" (not)double-breasted suit, too.
