Originally broadcast in Japan between October 2003 and October 2004, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon was a live-action Tokusatsu re-imagining of the original Sailor Moon manga, announced to coincide with the franchise's 10th anniversary. A Live-Action Adaptation of the series, it ran for 49 episodes, plus two direct-to-DVD bonus acts that formed a prequel and epilogue. Although it shares the same name as the original anime (Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon), it is commonly referred to as "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon" to distinguish it from other works. (The original translations of the original anime used "Senshi" as Soldier. The current translations of both the new and old anime and manga uses "Guardian".)The first half is a retelling of the manga's Dark Kingdom arc, in which Ordinary High-School Student Usagi Tsukino (Miyuu Sawai) and four others (Chisaki Hama, Keiko Kitagawa, Mew Azama and Ayaka Komatsu) discover that they are reincarnations of ancient lunar warriors, reawakened in the modern day to fight the evil of the Dark Kingdom. The second half of the show spins off into its own original arc, as the team struggles to balance their friendship, personal lives and responsibilities as Sailor Soldiers, and more sinister details begin to emerge about the disaster that destroyed the Moon Kingdom. In addition, several characters (particularly Minako, Ami and Princess Serenity) got significant overhauls to their story arcs.A widely-popularised nationwide search assembled a cast of unknowns for the main characters, for many of whom this was their first big acting gig. While the quality of the CG, a few rubber-suit monsters and many combat scenes that resembled dancing more than fighting (a style derogatorily referred to as "Ballet-Fu") expose its uncertain beginnings, all of the staff - from the actors to Toei Animation's CGI artists - gradually grow accustomed to their roles and produce a slow but smooth improvement in the show over time.The overall direction of the plot diverged into a much darker direction of things only previously suggested, such as the home life and social troubles the girls faced. On the other hand, the show was also known for Mood Whiplash due to its cartoonish sense of humor, which tended to contrast wildly with the more somber scenes.The ratings were lower than anticipated, and never reached the popularity of the phenomenon that was the anime. This led to the original 52-episode order getting cut down and the ending being rushed as a result. Toei explicitly produced the show with no intention of a release outside of Japan. In spite of that, fansubs abound online, allowing it to reach the rest of the international Sailor Moon fanbase even in the absence of official distribution.Not to be confused with Toon Makers’ Sailor Moon, the proposed pitch to Toei Animation for an Americanised live-action/animation hybrid version of the franchise for western television before DiC's dub of the anime came out, which would have strayed even further from the source material. Also not to be confused with the new anime, which has the official English title Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: Crystal or the recent reprints of the manga which use the "Guardian" branding rather than "Soldier".See also the entry for Sailor Moon; most of its tropes also apply to PGSM. | |

Hypocritical Heartwarming: In one episode Rei and Makoto get into a fight over whether or not to help Usagi with English homework. Makoto rescues Rei, however, from what she believes is a kidnapping. Rei is touched since Makoto was technically right; she was being forced to see her father, and they bond over the experience as well as then helping Usagi with a costume contest. Minako is cold and aloof towards Usagi in civilian guise, since she thinks Usagi is a "baka" and not fit to be a Senshi. When Mio tries to humiliate Usagi by claiming the latter has gotten Minako to perform an impromptu concert for her classmates? Minako shows up, sings a showstopper, sends a Death Glare at Mio, and spares Usagi the humiliation. Not to mention protecting the Princess from the Dark Kingdom. | |

Good Is Not Nice | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_21f3aa44 | comment |
Good is Not Nice: Minako, being the only Sailor Senshi with memories of the fall of the Moon Kingdom, takes the burden of leading the Inner Senshi into the fight against the Dark Kingdom and preventing the past from repeating itself onto her own shoulders, and sees her life as completely unimportant with regards to her mission. She is dismissive of the other Senshi, and frequently berates them both for their (relatively) idealistic outlook on life, and because she doesn't want them to mourn her inevitable death due to her illness. | |

Taught by Experience | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_26beee71 | comment |
Taught by Experience: Kunzite. His first attack on the Senshi involved attempting to corrupt Usagi, by transforming her into a youma. Thing is he didn't anticipate that Usagi would fight the corruption from the inside or that The Power of Friendship would bring her back to normal. When he tries the same trick on Ami, he waits until she is isolated from the other Senshi, lets her waste multiple attacks on him, and then corrupts her immediately. The Senshi take a long time to realize that something happened to Ami, and by the time they do they're too late. Again, this happens between Kunzite and Sailor Luna. After she used Teleportation Spam to fight him while Sailor Moon fought with Dark Mercury, Kunzite managed to use a powerful attack that led to a Curb-Stomp Battle. They both lampshade on encountering each other for a second time that they have new tricks up their sleeves. | |

More than Mind Control: Although the senshi first assume that Kunzite's simply controlling Ami, they gradually realize that Dark Sailor Mercury is partly a result of Ami's own feelings of loneliness and inadequecy roaring to the surface (particularly when she uses her powers to make herself the most popular girl in school, and to turn her former friends into the same sort of outcasts that she used to be). | |

| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: "C'est la vie!" means "that's life" in French and is a pun on the Japanese "Sera Vii" (Sailor V). The pun is even more amplified since the line says "This warm feeling is c'est la vie". In fact, the name of Minako's CD in-world, on which that song is found, is "Venus". One of Ami's image songs was called "Mi Amor" which means "my love" in Spanish. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: Queen Serenity and much of the Moon Kingdom in general got cut or is entirely different on this version. For instance, there is not even a mention Queen Serenity until the Special Act, she's only briefly alluded to when Usagi begins wondering if Ikuko is really her mother. The reason why they have been reborn in the first place is also never revealed to the viewers, so they are left to assume they were really reborn to carry out their mission, rather than Queen Serenity's wish for them to live peaceful lives on the Earth. A new Sailor Moon fan can easily get lost while trying to piece together the backstory. | |

Lured into a Trap | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_34c3144b | comment |
Lured into a Trap: Happens every now and then, but one episode had Ami and Rei discover a website beckoning the senshi. Luna encourages them to investigate thinking it was about Sailor V, only to find out it's a trap by Zoisite, resulting both girls temporarily brainwashed and Luna incapacitated. When Usagi and Makoto arrive at the scene, the latter ends up mind-controlled as well. The girls were only saved when Tuxedo Mask's intervention breaks Zoisite's spell. | |

"I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: The team against Dark Mercury. Usagi even drops her costume rather than fight back, and starts with her speech (she is, after all, a Messianic Archetype), to the point of bringing out an object the one had given the other as a gift. Subverted when Dark Mercury cleaves the mittens in half. The team also tries this against Princess Sailor Moon. Mamoru is the only one who manages to get through to her and make Usagi revert back to normal. When Mamoru dies with Metaria inside him, the Senshi are forced to fight Princess Sailor Moon and lose. | |

Deus ex Machina | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_3fca462c | comment |
Deus ex Machina: On the Special Act, Luna and Makoto try to take the Legendary Moon Sword off the stone, but they can't. Makoto remembers that Queen Serenity had told them they need to be united in order to do so. Later on, when they try to take it off along with Ami and Minako, but without Usagi and Rei, they manage to do so because, apparently, "Usagi and Rei's hearts are aligned with [theirs]." This is a Deus ex Machina for two reasons: 1) If their hearts were already aligned to begin with, why did Makoto and Luna need Ami and Minako's help? 2) On top of that, it's clear Ami and Minako were worrying about the other senshi the whole time, whereas Usagi was only worrying about Mamoru and had no remote idea of what was going on with the other senshi, and Rei was uncounscious. It makes more sense that Ami and Minako's hearts were aligned with Makoto and Luna's rather than Usagi and Rei's with the other senshi's. | |

By the end, she's come to her senses and it looks like everything's back to normal: even Usagi's friends are talking about her like she's gone for good. But then Usagi suddenly realizes that her friends have started to think differently about Ami, as evidenced by this: | |

Bittersweet Ending: More sweet than bitter. The senshi and Earth are revived, albeit without their powers and the Shittenou stay dead. All the girls' love for Usagi allows them to revive her in turn, as a normal girl. She marries Mamoru after transforming one last time to save the world from Mio and is fine with moving on from the trauma. Makoto, unlike every other adaptation, gets a boyfriend and fiance in Motoki, who loves her. Ami becomes a successful doctor, Rei finds friends, and Minako revives her singing career, fighting her terminal illness successfully. The only sour part is the Shittenou have to bid goodbye to Mamoru while promising they will always watch over him. | |

Alternate Continuity: It's confirmed that in this timeline, the Senshi all lose their powers permanently after Usagi's wedding. This means that Usagi will never become Neo-Queen Serenity, which in turn means the Black Moon and a future Chibi-Usa will never come back in time to create a new threat. What's more, the Outer Senshi aren't awakened if they exist, and Usagi purifies neither Galaxia nor the Star Cauldron. | |

It's also an inversion to the old anime for the girls. Although they're better in this version, everyone (sans Tuxedo Mask) were able to figure each other's real identity.

She gets married to Mamoru when she's eighteen, transforms one last time to defeat a revived Mio, and settles for a happy, normal life. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: More stuff from the manga makes it in here than in the anime. What's interesting about PGSM is how many plot elements from the whole series it manages to squeeze into the Dark Kingdom arc. For those familiar with the anime, two characters are close role stand-ins for the Outer Senshi and Chibiusa: Minako and Luna's human form, respectively. Elements of the Black Moon arc is adapted as this series' Darkury arc, with Kunzite and evil Ami taking over the roles of Wiseman and Black Lady/Chibiusa respectively). | |

Minako is cold and aloof towards Usagi in civilian guise, since she thinks Usagi is a "baka" and not fit to be a Senshi. When Mio tries to humiliate Usagi by claiming the latter has gotten Minako to perform an impromptu concert for her classmates? Minako shows up, sings a showstopper, sends a Death Glare at Mio, and spares Usagi the humiliation. Not to mention protecting the Princess from the Dark Kingdom. | |

Always Save the Girl | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_64edb99c | comment |
Always Save the Girl This is discussed constantly, namely in how Mamoru and Usagi's relationship may lead to yet another Apocalypse How as it did with their past selves. Many of the Senshi are torn over what to do, and when Princess Sailor Moon prepares to destroy the Earth, the surviving Senshi reluctantly fight her. At first Minako and Zoisite believe in the subversion of the trope; they want to protect their respective masters Princess Serenity and Endymion and know from the past that letting the two have a relationship will end in disaster. Zoisite even volunteers to kill Sailor Moon so that Endymion will live. Eventually both come to play it straight; Minako can't go with making Usagi forget about Mamoru through an enchanted music box that Zoisite gave her, and Zoisite takes a deadly blow meant for Sailor Moon, ironically while on said assignment to kill her. After learning that her past self destroyed the planet after Endymion died, Usagi still believes that she can learn to control her powers and save Mamoru. Unfortunately, to save the planet she has to kill Endymion, and Princess Sailor Moon decides to destroy the Earth in revenge. Mamoru surrenders to Beryl when she threatens to kill the Shittenou, despite the fact that he'd be a hostage and used against the Senshi. Not to mention that this triggers Sailor Moon's first episode as Princess Sailor Moon, and Mamoru is the only one who can calm her down. | |

Cannot Spit It Out | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_653c5c73 | comment |
Cannot Spit It Out: One of the things that makes this show read more like a Soap Opera than the other versions ever did. In particular: Oh, and each of the girls has a "reason" (good or not) for concealing information on a daily basis: Usagi hates to make waves, and will conceal her own feelings and even act strongly opposite to them in order to ensure that everyone's getting along and no one's mad at her. Ami's shy (very introverted) and a bit clingy now that she's got a friend, but she hates to bring up the fact that she has needs. Rei is used to working alone, and feels it's wrong to depend on other people. The times when it's absolutely necessary to work with others seem to be the times she's most likely to try to work alone. Makoto doesn't want to bug people or put additional burdens on them — hence why she decided not to tell the team that Ami-chan was in the hospital, and why she held off on telling Usagi all she knew about Mamoru and his engagement. Her intentions seem to backfire a lot. Minako seems to be operating on an entirely different wavelength from the rest of the team. Just as it starts to make sense (I was masquerading as the Princess to throw the enemy off the trail of the real Princess), she negates that motivation by saying she does things her own way since she's dying and doesn't want to get attached to anyone. | |

Plot Parallel: The reveal of Dark Mercury's personality as Ami's own inner demons is a big set-up of Princess Serenity's own dark side. Zoisite and Minako are this series' counterparts (being devoted to protect Mamoru and Usagi respectively) who die before they complete their mission. A mortally wounded Zoisite plays a requiem before passing away, while Minako releases an album with her own self-epitaph before her doomed surgery. | |

Adaptation Personality Change | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_6fbe85e6 | comment |
Adaptation Personality Change: PGSM is recognized as the adaptation that holds the most character focus compared to other incarnations of the franchise because so many of the characters' original traits were exaggerated or outright changed completely. Minako - far more serious and cynical than her anime or manga counterpart. Or maybe this adaptation of Minako doesn't bother hiding her cynical view of the world. Ami - more shy and worries about fitting in. Motoki - He was one of the nicest characters on the original, and the crush of many girls who visited the arcade. On this version, he gets the bumbling and quirky traits of Umino Gurio as opposed to his Pretty Boy self in the manga. And was reduced to a Cloudcuckoolander who spends the entire day staring at a turtle in early episodes. Usagi - begins as all versions of Usagi do - upbeat and quirky, until getting hit hard in the last third of the series with a serious case of past life blues and needing to deal with the emotional damage that comes with it. Ikuko (Usagi's mother) - The original was the stereoptical housewife you usually see on TV. This version downplays her Education Mama tendencies and makes her as clumsy as her daughter, or perhaps, clumsier. With the exception of Jadeite, who remains steadfast in his loyalty to Queen Beryl through the entirety of the series (though his loyalty is Deconstructed into Love Martyr territory), all the Shitennou have very different personalities as well - Nephrite starts out similar to Jadeite in his allegiance to Beryl until the combination of Beryl's apathy towards his efforts as well as his interest in Ami and the human world leads to a change in heart; Zoisite is dedicated to protecting Mamoru alone and keeping history from repeating itself; Kunzite holds no allegiance to any character whatsoever and is determined not to let the past repeat itself as well - even if it means cutting down everyone in his path to keep it from happening. | |

When She Smiles | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_72c8b35c | comment |
When She Smiles: Done with all the girls. Ami as a Shrinking Violet mostly keeps her head down and so only really smiles when she is with Usagi. Seeing her smile more often highlights her Character Development. Makoto is likewise always very solemn so when she does her little smile at Motoki's flirting, it's adorable, as it is when she smiles with the other girls. Minako smiles to her fans but - knowing what we know - it's likely not genuine. So when she has a fun day with Usagi, we see her smile differently for the first time. As for Rei...well the girl never smiles at first. We slowly see her smile more often as she undergoes Character Development and it's lovely whenever she does. Seeing Rei smile is a Heartwarming Moment in and of itself. | |

Minako forces Rei to take up an Idol Singer persona as Reiko Mars. Later, when Minako loses her interest in singing in favor of being a full-time senshi, Artemis and Rei devise a Batman Gambit by using her Reiko Mars alias to monopolize Minako's projects. This ignited Minako's competitiveness and they duke it out in a team game show. Minako lost, but the plan worked. The senshi are even psyched that it is their first time to bond all together as friends, and it is implied that Rei conspired with Minako's manager all along. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: This happens with Luna, surprisingly enough. While she's always been on the side of good and has legitimate reasons to be exasperated with Usagi most of the time, there were times in both the manga and the anime where she was very mean, insensitive, and even downright cruel in some cases. The live-action series gets rid of her meaner traits and makes her significantly nicer, giving Usagi genuine praise when she did something right instead of just putting her down or making jokes at her expense, offering emotional support, and making an effort to help out in battle once she gains the ability to turn into Sailor Luna. | |

Conservation of Ninjutsu | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_82f5ced1 | comment |
Conservation of Ninjutsu: Accidentally averted. Due to the busy schedules of the actresses, it was common for the senshi in standard Monsters Of The Day episodes to show up in just pairs or three, while important episodes with strong enemies were more likely to feature all the girls. This created a fairly smooth power scale, where the senshi were never [[jobbed]] and generally only did badly in fights because they couldn't coordinate an assault with all five or a main character villain was simply that powerful. | |

Demonic Possession | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_906365a2 | comment |
Demonic Possession: The youma often start off by possessing human victims, and only manifest physically when they're discovered by the senshi. Interestingly, the youma are fairly verbose while speaking through a human, but they become The Speechless once they reveal their true forms. Later, in a change from other continuities, Mamoru becomes Queen Metallia's host after absorbing it within his body and becoming corrupted by it. He is a lot more powerful than the brainwashed Endymion from the anime and manga. | |

Eventually, after Minako faints on stage, she reveals this is because she doesn't have long to live and wants Rei to Take Up My Sword. Mamoru under the pretense of fighting Sailor Moon tells her that she needs to learn how to control her powers so that Princess Sailor Moon doesn't destroy the Earth in her rage. | |

Evil Counterpart: The Shitennou, particularly in PGSM, are portrayed as the senshi's equals and opposites (they'd normally serve the same role for Endymion as the senshi do for Serenity, while the evil part comes from Beryl's influence). Their individual characterizations take things further: Jadeite->Makoto = Both staunch in their duties as warriors. Jadeite because he loves Beryl and Makoto because she believes she has nothing to look forward to. Nephrite->Ami = Both devoted to the point of fanaticism. Zoisite->Minako = Both rely on questionable methods to make sure history doesn't repeat itself. Kunzite->Rei = Both Screw Destiny believers. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing The track listing for Minako's CD which heavily foreshadows her roles in the series. Also much of the prequel, Act Zero. Sailor Mars is shown singing in the show's opening sequence. Perhaps a subtle hint that she will eventually abandon her hatred of karaoke. Rei fearing the loss of her friends is one of her reasons of self-isolation. Minako is the one she became closest with. Usagi's flux under Kunzite's youma curse parallels Sailor Moon's internal struggle against Princess Serenity. Related to the above, Kunzite uses Ami's isolation and loneliness to turn her against her comrades as Dark Sailor Mercury, herself a parallel of Serenity's dark psyche. Minako was diagnosed to only have six months to live. She dies exactly twenty-four episodes afterwards. Sailor Moon impales a Youma using Endymion's sword. This is how she also finishes Metalia!Endymion. | |

Adaptation Dye-Job | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_a4414a05 | comment |
Adaptation Dye-Job: With the exception of Jadeite (who looks largely the same as the original), the Shitennou have their hair colors switched around: while Nephrite's brown hair became red, the role of white-haired boy was passed from Kunzite (whose hair in this incarnation is black) to Zoisite (who originally had strawberry-blond/orange hair). The Sailor Senshi play with this; they all have black or very dark brown hair in civilian form, but their hair changes to their hair colors from the original manga when transformed. The only exception is Sailor Mars, who has pitch black hair in Senshi form instead of the dark purple hair she has in the manga. | |

Girls Love Stuffed Animals | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_aed59f28 | comment |
Girls Love Stuffed Animals: Luna and Artemis are stuffed cat toys for this series. Additionally, during the early "Makoto and Rei have a fight then make up" episode, this is used as evidence that Makoto is a pretty normal girl after all (since she has cute stuffed animals in her purse). And Usagi enters a contest of "dress like this cute mascot" but, when she's unable to attend, both Makoto and Rei show up in her place to try to get her the prize... so we get to see them both dressed up like a cute stuffed animal. Queen Mio's puppy doll, Chappi. | |

Retool: Big and small changes from the anime and manga all across the board, including being updated to fit in with current tech and fads, rather than those of the early 90s. Some of the elements from the manga that didn't appear in the anime are kept, although the series in general is a re-imagining of both the original story and its characters. | |

In Act Zero, Artemis and Minako meet in a comedic manner on Christmas Eve without any mention of her sickness. | |

The Japanese language has no true curse words, though the phrase she used, "zakkenayo"note A highly contracted form of "fuzakeru na yo"; see Japanese Stock Phrases for its meaning, and the context may convey a similar meaning. In the same fansub, she tells Kunzite "don't fuck with me!" when trying to protect a brainwashed Ami from him. | |

Irony | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_c335b9ec | comment |
Irony: This version of Minako is both ironic and tragic. Her terminal illness robbed her of an overtly cheerful persona in favor of a Child Soldier mentality. She wants to distance herself from the senshi but is always drawn to them for the sake of the mission. Despite being a Senshi of Love, she had to conspire with Zoisite to quell Usagi and Mamoru's forbidden love. In one episode Usagi disguises herself as Minako to allow the latter to escape a crowd of fans. At this point Minako is pretending to be the princess who is really Usagi. Minako forces Rei to take up an Idol Singer persona as Reiko Mars. Later, when Minako loses her interest in singing in favor of being a full-time senshi, Artemis and Rei devise a Batman Gambit by using her Reiko Mars alias to monopolize Minako's projects. This ignited Minako's competitiveness and they duke it out in a team game show. Minako lost, but the plan worked. The senshi are even psyched that it is their first time to bond all together as friends, and it is implied that Rei conspired with Minako's manager all along. Minako makes it a point to chide Rei for not awakening her powers and gives her a Cool and Unusual Punishment to help, especially since according to her Rei is the Senshi leader. Minako later reveals she's the real leader, much to Rei's chagrin. Later on, Minako accidentally reveals that her powers haven't awakened, and Rei has to rescue her from a youma. | |

Ami watches over her fretfully, but sees that Usagi's body temperature is returning to normal, meaning she's fighting it and will soon wake. Not wanting his project to go to waste, Kunzite decides to steal away Usagi and keep her away from her friends. Minako decides to undergo surgery on Act 46 after refusing to do it the entire season. The preview for Act 47 shows Minako alive and well, singing at the Karaoke. Turns out that was only an Imagine Spot and Minako really is dead. | |

Yank the Dog's Chain | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_c4db6423 | comment |
Yank the Dog's Chain Just as when Usagi and Mamoru mellow out to each other, Usagi learns of Mamoru's engagement to Hina, which spirals her into depression. At the same time, Rei becomes distracted with searching for Minako after learning of her identity as Venus; while Makoto is focused on watching over Usagi. The scattered team is instrumental for Ami's eventual capture and fall. Minako while posing as the Princess starts instructing Rei on how to act as the leader of the Senshi. She starts by mentioning that Rei's powers should have awakened before Sailor Moon's, and challenges Rei to get out of her comfort zone by singing karaoke for a pediatrics ward. Just as Rei gets comfortable in her role, it's revealed Sailor Moon is actually Princess Serenity, and that Sailor Venus is the real leader of the Senshi. Rei calls out Minako for lying to her. Nephrite is turned into a normal human after his death. At first he struggles with his depowering, with bouts of rage and depression. However, after a while of being shown kindness by Motoki and Ami, he is finally getting used to his new life and adjusting to society when Princess Sailor Moon destroys the world. All hopes are renewed when Mamoru had absorbed Metallia with no apparent ill effect; Usagi managed to suppress Serenity's Silver Crystal; Minako has fully awakened as Venus and decided to take on the surgery. Fate left everyone in emotional shambles afterwards. | |

Celebrity Lie: Inverted in one episode where Idol Singer Minako claims that Rei, who is a shrine girl, is actually a celebrity named "Mars Reiko" and will sing at a hospital's pediatric ward. Rei reluctantly goes along with it since she doesn't have the heart to disappoint the kids. Variant: Mio claims on Usagi's behalf that Usagi knows Idol Singer Minako as part of a plot to isolate and humiliate her. Ironically at this point Usagi does know Minako; just not in the way she expects (Minako is Sailor Venus). Also, Minako foils the humiliation attempt by showing up at the concert Mio promised on Usagi's behalf, while shooting a Death Glare at Mio. | |

Averted later when, for example, Rei isn't able to get her transformation phrase out before a youma-possessed boy runs up some stairs to sucker punch her and steal her life force. Another time, Usagi has enough time to transform, but her transformation also gives the enemy enough time to pop up behind her, so that the second she's in costume he's got his hands around her throat. | |

Contrived Coincidence: Act 5 puts this to the extreme, Ami feels really happy about having friends. But then, everything around her starts telling her that having friends is a lie, starting with a horoscope on a radio she listens to, then she stumbles upon two teens being interviewed about a girl who was being a shitty friend, then there's the aforementioned Coincidental Broadcast, and finally, she stumbles upon a store that was promoting a book called "The Guide to a True Friendship." | |

Call-Forward: Mamoru's awareness of Sailor V's true identity as the pop star Minako Aino during the series is explained in the prequel Act Zero. Officer Akai (played by Nephrite's actor) in Act Zero takes anti-depressants named Ami-tan (a pun on Ami-chan). He comments "disgusting" while ingesting the tablets, similar to how Nephrite eats Ami's burnt cookies and their mutual affection cooled his temperamental attitude. | |

Composite Character: Princess Sailor Moon/Serenity has the death and rebirth powers of Sailor Saturn. Minako's behavior combines the Outer Senshi and elements of manga/anime Minako; Her famous celebrity persona is inspired from Minako's hobby and the Three Lights. Ami's personal demons and brainwashing turned her into Darkury, this version's Black Lady. Queen Metalia has properties of Chaos from the anime. Mio and the new Dark Kingdom from the Special Act are more like the Dead Moon Circus. | |

11th-Hour Superpower: Ami, Rei, and Makoto's Sailor Star Tambourines transform into their Infinity Plus One Swords in the second to last episode of the series, too bad it was too little, too late. Mercury gets a sword, Jupiter gets a spear, and Mars, as mentioned in the Dual Wielding entry, gets a pair of daggers using both her and Venus' tambourine. The weapons return in the Special Act where they're put to better use (and with Venus wielding the daggers instead). | |

Big Damn Heroes: Almost too many to count. Most episode-climaxing fights will start with one senshi nearly being beaten, only for the rest to show up at the last minute to turn the battle around. Minako performs a unique one where Mio lies that Usagi has organized a concert for the class - hoping to cause trouble. Just after everyone thinks it's a hoax, Minako arrives and starts performing. | |

With the exception of Jadeite, who remains steadfast in his loyalty to Queen Beryl through the entirety of the series (though his loyalty is Deconstructed into Love Martyr territory), all the Shitennou have very different personalities as well - Nephrite starts out similar to Jadeite in his allegiance to Beryl until the combination of Beryl's apathy towards his efforts as well as his interest in Ami and the human world leads to a change in heart; Zoisite is dedicated to protecting Mamoru alone and keeping history from repeating itself; Kunzite holds no allegiance to any character whatsoever and is determined not to let the past repeat itself as well - even if it means cutting down everyone in his path to keep it from happening. | |

Covert Pervert: Ami of all people. In one episode, they're going through the girl's phones to look at pictures they've taken (the phones in this continuity allow them to disguise themselves). The last outfit in Ami's phone is a dress that can fall apart. The other girls are visibly shocked. This trait might have been inherited from her anime counterpart, who is only slightly less shy yet is prone to make occasional "interesting" comments. | |

The Power of Friendship | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_faece9aa | comment |
Kunzite. His first attack on the Senshi involved attempting to corrupt Usagi, by transforming her into a youma. Thing is he didn't anticipate that Usagi would fight the corruption from the inside or that The Power of Friendship would bring her back to normal. When he tries the same trick on Ami, he waits until she is isolated from the other Senshi, lets her waste multiple attacks on him, and then corrupts her immediately. The Senshi take a long time to realize that something happened to Ami, and by the time they do they're too late. | |

Evil Is Hammy | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_fdf22cfd | comment |
Evil Is Hammy: Queen Beryl and Kunzite. Nephrite and Dark Mercury had their moments. The Shitennou in general, most especially in the Kirari Super Live special, where the actors of Kunzite and Nephrite can't stop themselves from laughing while they are threatening the "impudent" human audience, who are filled with raucous giggling. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished: The Senshi and Shitennou are blasted around, yet most of their injuries are in the form of blackened smudges on their faces. | |

The Corrupter | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_fe6c146e | comment |
The Corrupter: Kunzite has this as an Establishing Character Moment. He corrupts one person to change into a youma, and then does the same to Sailor Moon since he anticipates she is the greatest threat to the Dark Kingdom. Then he manages to succeed with Sailor Mercury by waiting for her to be isolated before corrupting her, so that The Power of Friendship doesn't mess up his plans. | |

Talking Is a Free Action | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_ff5a74c8 | comment |
Talking Is a Free Action: Ami invokes her first transformation into Sailor Mercury during a 20-foot-fall — and she does it by reciting a trigger phrase that takes about three or four times longer to say than she should have taken to reach the ground. Averted later when, for example, Rei isn't able to get her transformation phrase out before a youma-possessed boy runs up some stairs to sucker punch her and steal her life force. Another time, Usagi has enough time to transform, but her transformation also gives the enemy enough time to pop up behind her, so that the second she's in costume he's got his hands around her throat. Also, apparently ballet moves are a free action, given the number of times enemies just stand there staring while the Senshi twirl, pirouette, and cartwheel their way across the room. Maybe it's a form of Mook Chivalry? Or maybe they're just stunned by all the panty shots. | |

Pet the Dog | |
| Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Beryl starts getting a few such moments near the end of the series, culminating in her releasing Jadeite from her mind control spell so he can escape the Dark Kingdom's destruction, leaving her to die alone. He instead chooses, with his own will, to stay with her until the end. Awwwww.... | |
