#Makaiju

[sailorheadcanons]

Sailor Uranus and Neptune didn't respond when the Makaiju, Ail and En arrived on Earth because, even though they were from outside the solar system, they were not a threat, just misguided. That's why their presence didn't awaken the Outers' Sailor Crystals.

It was exciting to finally see this come together, and see the range of different styles!

The Ail and An Arc isn't filer!

I'm dead serious.

Whenever an anime is an adaptation of a manga, anime fans are so used to labelling anything not featured in the manga as 'filler' they do so without thinking.

Filler is called 'filler' because it is superfluous. It is filling in time and is therefore skippable. The reason we have 'filler free' lists for various anime is specifically so people can watch an anime and follow the main plotline in a speedier manner.

The problem with labelling the Ail and An arc as filler is that you absolutely HAVE to watch it to follow the main narrative!

Alright, not literally ALL 13 episodes. But you for sure need to watch some of the episodes. There is simply NO WAY you can jump from the end of the Dark Kingdom arc in season 1 to the debut of Chibi-Usa in season 2/Sailor Moon R without feeling lost.

Season 1 of the anime concludes with Usagi, Mamoru and the Inner Senshi not remembering their adventures as super heroes nor their relationships with one another. If someone jumped from that to the first episode of the Black Moon Clan arc they'd either be confused about or need to headcanon the following:

How and when did Usagi and the gang remember their lives in season 1

How and when did Usagi and Mamoru get together?

How and when did Usagi get this new 'Moon Crystal Power' transformation and this new 'Moon Princess Halation' attack?

Whilst it is true the Ail and An arc is nowhere to be found in the manga, there is no end of elements in the 1992 anime which are also not to be found in the manga that the fandom en masse doesn't label as filler.

Naru and Nephrite's relationship

The hunt for the Rainbow Crystals

Kunzite and Zoisite's relationship

Minako's backstory with Alan and Katarina

The Inner Senshi dying at the clutches of the DD Girls

Usagi's showdown with Super Beryl

All those are iconic plot relevant to the over arching storyline of the first season alone and none of it is in the manga, not even in a 'squint and you will see it' kind of way.

I will also add that some episodes of Ail and An arc are skippable but do great character work in their own right. The Usagi and Mamoru babysitting episode for example subtly foreshadows what the rest of the season will revolve around, namely Usagi and Mamoru's relationship with their own child, Chibi-Usa.

A small gift for @rachel8889 of her Edionan OC Caria (Sailor Sphrite). I love her mushroom theme so much I had to find a base to help me when I couldn't get it looking right on my own.

I don't quite remember what inspired this originally. I believe I was rewatching Sailor Moon at the time, and I was...frustrated isn't the quite the word, but I wanted a bit more to the Usagi/Alan/Ann/Mamoru drama than we got. This isn't so much a divergence as it is a fleshing out of the canon. I think the Makaiju arc was fun. I understand it was more of a filler arc, but I still enjoyed it. It was originally intended to be a one shot, but eventually, I came back and added 2 more chapters, and now I feel that this is one of my better Sailor Moon fics. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Moon Sake Bottle Action!

Somehow at a houseparty with Usagi, Mamoru feels totally out of his depth - until Minako suggests they liven things up a bit. But can an unusual talent for carnival games be leveraged into a kiss with his crush??

A long time ago, I cropped Yachiru and Momo so they could sit on top of Windows, customizing some old program I downloaded off the internet I really can't remember the name of right now. But it was also some anime girl sitting on windows.

It's not as exciting as a shimeji and it was several years before those, but also several years after screen mates.

I kept clinging to Windows XP well into 2008.

They like to watch...

(Randomly had the urge to edit this screenshot, from episode 56 during the Makaiju arc of Sailor Moon R. I know this isn't my usual drawn art or 3D model fare, but I promise more art in the future, and this one was quick to do XD)

Look at them back there!!

Sailor Moon Episode 58 - The Lovers’ Hearts Disagree! The Angry Makaiju

Ali and An are multigender. Their race have different ideas of gender and sex compared to humans. Both were mildly confused at how humans categorize themselves based on mere appearance into two boxes.

A belated birthday present for the lovely Kill3rPixiie of her Edionan Plumeria (Sailor Ive). I did two versions, one following Plumeria's original design (left) and one that's more in line with a recent edit (right).

I used the same base as for this piece, as I was considering using it to practice making a Picrew, but I'm not sure. I kinda feel out of love with how it looks.

Usagi stared out of the window with her head propped up on her chin. In the background, her teacher was giving a lecture on irrational remainders, or chemical compounds, or something. Usagi wasn't paying enough attention to remember which class she was in. Vaguely she knew she'd pay for that later, but she knew Ami would help her cram for any tests coming up.

It had been three days since her run in with Mamoru and Ann, and she had determinedly avoided them both. It was easy with Ann. They seemed to have made a silent agreement of mutual avoidance since the incident, so despite being in the same classes, Usagi had hardly seen Ann. Mamoru was a surprising challenge. Like magnets they seemed to be drawn to each other, even though she had been avoiding the places she knew he was likely to be. In the three days following the hospital incident, she had run into Mamoru at the grocery store picking up snacks; at the library where she met with Ami for tutoring; even at the mall where she was shopping for new shoes. Usagi was beginning to suspect that those run-ins weren't accidents. He had spotted her each time and started towards her, but each time Usagi managed to pretend she hadn't seen him and duck away before he could catch up.

Makoto's speed drills are coming in handy, Usagi reflected. Then she sighed. She knew she couldn't keep avoiding Mamoru. If he really was trying to speak to her, Usagi knew it was only a matter of time before he managed to find her in a place where she wouldn't be able to escape so easily. She distantly recalled that in another life, he had been famous for his tracking abilities. Besides, she missed him. The sting of embarrassment was beginning to fade, and Usagi thought that if Mamoru wanted to catch her, she'd consider making it less difficult.
