I liked it. Sometimes some things were rather technobabbly but

One thing--

I will be staying at the Azabu City
Hotel for the next several days and it is vitally important that you 
..."

Sailor Moon takes place in Minato-ku, like Ranma takes place in 
Nerima-ku. "Azabu" means "district" and "Juuban" means "tenth" -- the 
tenth district of Minato-ku. This area of Minato-ku (in the real world) 
is rather upscale. You can see a brief outdoor shot of it in the extra 
features portion of one of the Escaflowne DVDs.

So "Azabu City" is like saying "District City"...it doesn't make sense.
