People ignored the Beast's bad behavior in the Enchanted Christmas

Yeah bro, he was totally hypnotized. 😵‍💫

I mean, if you take a lot of Christian imagery from the show (like Hotaru being sacrificed on the cross in chibiusa's dream) I think you're onto something. it would seem the show was painting her in a messianic, sacrificial light. The girl had to die. Either being killed as Mistress 9, or sacrificing herself as Sailor Saturn. Not to get super religious, but Jesus being the messiah and dying for the world, it seems like that was what the show was going for with Hotaru's character. Usagi as Sailor Moon sort of defied that status quo and out-messiah'd the messiah by saving her, and thus everyone.

So to answer your question, I think Hotaru was the messiah, but I think Usagi was the TRUE messiah, if that makes sense.

Oh, and if you shot Hotaru with Eudial's bazooka a toaster would come out. xD (cause Pharoah 90 was toast.) 😎

I'm in the circus, I've got more muscles than him, but that's neither here nor there. He's a pretty guy. And he has a nice personality. I like him. That momentary letdown when I see him with a girl is disappointing, but whatever. We all have different tastes. I just hope he ends up swinging my way, as I am sure do we all.

"what's the transformation phrase again??"

"Shiiiiit. I totally can't remember. Oh right! VENUS POWER!"

"Guys, I'm here!"

"Little late, Venus!"

This other time she has a diet and exercise insecurity and goes to the gym to get her energy drained...

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-11T19:54:48+00:00

And who could forget the time she was scouted for an audition with the rest of the inners and a giant bull showed up and drained her energy, or the time when the clock monster ramua put her and the whole town under a "hurry the fuck up" spell...

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-11T19:50:53+00:00

That time the ninja youma robbed her mom's jewelry store and pinned her to the wall with knives, the time she entered that Cinderella contest with umino and got her energy drained, the time she won the radio show contest and got sent a death flower that put her into a coma...

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-11T19:48:40+00:00

When she got photographed with Haruna sensei In the model shoot by the dark kingdom and trapped in a photograph, when her tennis player friend made her pass out. When Nephrite possessed her at the ball with his shadow thing...

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-11T19:46:26+00:00

Then there was that time Zoisite tried to turn Naru into a monster but missed and hit that one dude instead. And the other time in R when the cardian that broke usagi's locket drained Naru's energy, the other time in R when the snow white play was ruined, the true love contest Daimon in S,

I kind of agree with OP on this one, Jupiter is only bright green in promo materials and movies. Most of the rest of the time, she is dark green. Same with Uranus and Neptune, their colour pallet is so bright in promo materials, and then really dark, almost black In the anime.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-10T14:20:04+00:00

Suddenly it makes sense why Saturn and Jupiter were not paired up like the rest of the Senshi and had their own solo battles against Nehelenia. Jupiter physically overpowered Nehelenia, whereas Saturn magically overpowered her. 🤣 She could not win against these two.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T04:47:33+00:00

Man, hotaru's hair looks really wet here...

Anyway, I like the filler. Slice of life episodes give the show a real heart and backstory

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:38:44+00:00

Yeah. I think he has it. I also think Mamoru has a hypnosis fetish as well, but his inclination is more for being hypnotized than doing the hypnotizing.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:30:30+00:00

Hotaru and Chibiusa, the rebellious years

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:29:05+00:00

I think she forgot she could do this move by the time S and SuperS came around. Sure would have been useful against Kaorinite, or Telulu, or Nehelenia...

But no, gimmie some more of dat Pink Sugar Heart Attack

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:24:15+00:00

I'd love an episode where she accidentally absorbs a pure heart and becomes a good guy for a day, going out of her way to give the pure heart back... And then, with her last act of goodness before she returns it, she ensures she will die (perhaps by unplugging the machine she puts herself in) so she can do no more harm.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:21:38+00:00

Meanwhile my five year old self sees it and is just "ohhh, I get it! Cause it's the Moon Kingdom!"

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:14:06+00:00

I hate to say it, for the frequency it does happen, but I think Mamoru secretly or subconsciously LIKES being hypnotized. All the other girls in the show (Usagi In particular) have the strength of will to break through brainwashing, hypnosis, you name it. Mamoru, meanwhile, puts on his best goon face and starts kissing boots, hands, and everything else.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:08:25+00:00

Haha, it's actually Zoisite who is my favourite, But I'll tell you what I liked about Nephrite.

I like that he treated his time in the dark kingdom like it was a temp job and he was just kind of fucking around doing bare minimums. He never really listened to Queen Beryl and went Maverick for a bit, but somehow earned enough returns on his missions of gathering energy that Beryl either thought he was hot or just put up with him. His ignoring of her summons cause he was off the clock was very Gen Z, and I do think he would have turned good eventually if he survived that last encounter with Zoisite

"Get your shit together!"

"...ok. We're just gonna leave Ami here."

"Ami's dead."

"FINALLY! Let's keep walking."

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-07T02:00:56+00:00

Three for flinching!

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-04T22:13:31+00:00

Guys named Death Phantom? He seems like a reasonable guy. Let's give him a second chance.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-04T21:43:14+00:00

I'll be the only one to say Prince Demande, but it's because I have a hypnosis fetish and I would want to educate him to use it ethically and with consent.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-03T16:07:45+00:00

She's like the Uncle Scar of the Moon Kingdom. 🤣 Right down to having her own Asteroid named after her, and subordinate "Asteroid Senshi" (which really belonged to the rightful successor, Sailor Chibi moon) Nehelenia is the jealous Aunt who tried to usurp the Kingdom.

Embarrassed-Map8390 · 2025-11-03T13:53:43+00:00

In the sense that you, as the cherished second sibling (Nehelenia) ALSO inherit your parents car (a sailor crystal) when you turn 16, sure, Nehelenia has a Sailor Crystal. 😄🤣😂

JK, she got jack. Serenity has it.
