#she has a sailor Jupiter vibe

[noonslullabies]

the only reason i haven't jumped into the stampede fun is that I'll probably turn the old man into knive's uncle figure.

Sailor Moon & Nakshatras

I thought it'd be interesting to correlate the different Sailor Moons and their powers with the themes that are present in different nakshatras.

This is a super low effort post so all of it is just speculation and I'd love it if you guys told me what you associate with the different Senshi.

Other than Sailor Moon herself, there are 9 sailor senshi who protect the solar system.

Sailor Moon

A crystalline object which provides her basic power, contains limitless power and is the source of all energy in the universe. She can call upon her future self to use the power of both the future and present crystal to double its power.

she's the only one who has no power of her own and has to rely on some object so i guess that makes her Moon dominant??

Sailor Mercury

Sailor Mercury has the power to create and manipulate water. For the entire first story arc, she uses her water-manipulating capabilities only to create solid and dense clouds of mist and fog, chilling and blinding the enemy while her allies prepare more direct attacks

this is actually super on brand Mercury behaviour

Sailor Venus

I feel like Sailor Venus has more powers than other senshi??

It includes: Flight, Magic, Transformation, Longevity, Immortality (Type 4), Limited Shapeshifting, Teleportation, Forcefield, Light Manipulation, Energy Manipulation, Energy Projection, Weather Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Data Manipulation, Creation, Reincarnation (Overtime not applicable in battle), Can Survive in Space, Resistance to Mind Manipulation, Death Manipulation, Existence Erasure, Gravity Manipulation, Radiation Manipulation, Poison Manipulation, Power Nullification, Resistances to Status Effect Inducement and Soul Manipulation, Resistance to Telekinesis etc

idk if this is Venus' "being better than others" theme lol but i feel like these are powers that belong to all 27 naks and not just Venus

Sailor Mars

Precognition: Rei is shown to have strong precognition, where she can make full use of this ability to predict events from the near future, but it can fail sometimes.

Pyromancy: Rei is also shown to have a great affinity with fire, to the point where she is capable to manifest her future sights by forming images on the flames. The images are very enigmatic and unreliable.

Purification: Even when she is in her civilian form, she can use her "ofuda" (a Shinto talisman used to protect homes from evil spirits) to "exorcize" people, while yelling "Evil Spirit, Disperse!" (although it can cause normal people to faint, as shown in episode 10 when she tried to "purify" Usagi).

Sixth Sense: Rei is sometimes shown to have a "sixth sense", using it to detect "evil presences" and approaching danger, as shown in Chapter 6 of Codename: Sailor V manga, but it can fail sometimes when she mistook Usagi for an evil spirit.

Expert Archer: As a Shrine Priestess, she is an expert archer, and this potential is shown in her "Mars Flame Sniper" attack.

these are a variety of powers that don't really all connect to Mars energy, it's giving strong Venus & Jupiter vibes tbh

i associate the purification, pyromancy and precognitive abilities with Venus and the sixth sense, expert archer ones with Jupiter

Sailor Jupiter

Electrokinesis, martial arts, longevity, and "emphasized superhuman strength"

these powers are a bit random, i guess the author wanted to emphasize martial arts and physical strength with the masculine grahas but I get more Mars and Sun vibes ngl

Sailor Saturn 

Daughter of a possessed mad scientist, a terrible lab accident in her youth significantly compromised her constitution. After overcoming the darkness that has surrounded her family, she is able to become the Soldier of Silence, Sailor Saturn. She wields forces of destruction so powerful that she is rarely called upon to use them, and unlike the others, her Senshi and civilian personae seem somewhat disconnected. She is often pensive, and as a human has the inexplicable power to heal others.

this backstory is in itself very Saturnian and I think Saturnians do suffer a lot of abuse and injustice in their lives. So all Saturn naks like UBP, Anuradha & Pushya

Sailor Pluto

Manipulation and control of spacetime, Time Wave Generation Teleport others over short or vast distances. Open rifts or doorways in space through different eras Freeze all of time (forbidden) Erect a shield of time-space energy

i mean it goes without saying but this is literally Punarvasu & Swati. both these naks have themes of space and time travel

Sailor Uranus

she possesses powers associated with the wind and sky, precognition, as well as sword combat.

this is giving me Mars & Venus energy, more specifically Bharani as it is a Venusian nakshatra in the Mars ruled rashi of Aries

Sailor Neptune

exceptionally strong psychic abilities and is the only Outer Scout who has such powers and she can channel the power of the ocean. 

I associate Neptune's abilities with Pisces (neptune rules pisces so this is a no brainer) and I connect it to PBP, UBP & Revati

[ultim8life4m]

these came to me in a dream

there is a thought process behind every single one of my choices and it’s under the cut

Sonic - Sailor Moon - duh, this is sonic and sailor moon were talking abt

Tails - Sailor Mercury - both r very smart and technologically advanced lol

Knuckles - Sailor Mars - red. also bc usagi and rei (moon and mars respectively) r rlly big rivals lmao

Amy - Sailor Venus - they have VERY similar personalities, she’s besties w jupiter, minako (venus) wants to be an idol rlly bad and amy has that energy

Metal Sonic - Sailor Jupiter - both have electricity related to them, Metal Sonic + Amy r besties just like Jupiter and Venus cmon you know it’s true, also bc Jupiter is known for her unfathomable strength similar to how Metal is unfathomably strong in reference to sonic bc. yk.

Shadow - Sailor Saturn - THIS IS RLLY RLLY RLLY FLESHED OUT IN MY HEAD SINCE THEYRE BOTH MY FAVORITES LOL, both r seen as “ultimate lifeforms” in a way, shadow being in cryosleep for years and saturn being “forbidden to awaken due to her being the soldier of death”, hotaru and shadow were both in some way scientifically created, hotaru and shadow r both the children of (mad) scientists, shadow being gerald and hotaru being PROFESSOR FUCKING TOMOE, both had a rlly traumatic event alter the course of their life, and both died tragically, were reborn, and have a found family after being reborn, shadow being team dark and saturn being uranus neptune and pluto

Rouge - Sailor Uranus - rouge arguably COULD have been neptune but she lacks the grace that neptune has , and i feel like overall she suits uranus waaay more

Silver - Sailor Pluto - pluto is the soldier of fucking time why do you think she’s silver

Blaze - Sailor Neptune - blaze has that grace that rouge kinda lacks in regards to neptune, plus blaze and neptune r rlly similar in vibes, and i think it would be ironic to see blaze do a deep submerge lol

i am insane

[looceyloo]

I saw the fanart of Sailor Moon in Armor made by you and that got me thinking.

What shows do you know of that would benefit by having the female characters redesigned to be armored up like this?

Hmm, I don't know if any would benefit from armoured redesigns, since generally the shows/games I like already have such strong character design!

I keep coming back to drawing armoured Sailor Moon because she has such strong Paladin/Cleric vibes, and I imagine a more mature fantasy version of her would totally rock the shining knight in armor archetype. Incidentally, here's Sailor Jupiter in Ancient Greek inspired armour!

Armoured Zelda was inspired by the priestess-type vibes Zelda has in Twilight Princess. In all of the LoZ games, she has the role of magical priestess, but I don't think that should preclude her from fighting! So I was really inspired by a King Arthur type of pious warrior king design for her, where she can actually go out and physically fight.

Armoured Peach definitely is as a reaction to her being literally THE archetypal rescued-Princess, and honestly, her character shapes translate fantastically to armour anyway (imo).

But back to the question! The list of femme armour sets I wanna get around to drawing eventually includes:

Anthy and Utena Sailor Saturn Madoka (PMMM) Elsa (yeah, from Frozen lol)

[daeva-agas]

Speaking of the Senshi/Shitennou pairs. I was kind of curious why those stones in particular, right. Kunzite and zoisite are so unusual that I think only gemstone aficionados know them, and even though jadeite and nephrite are somewhat more commonly known names IIRC it still made people mess up the mineral names back in the day.

Well, uh, so, it was alleged that Takeuchi-sensei chose them to match the character and personalities of the senshi they're partnered with, so... Excuse me while I go overthink this and have a meltdown in suffering.

In the first place, supposedly the "inner senshi" are officially meant to be called "guardians"/"guardian deities" (守護 or 守護神). Haven't seen the raws, so I can't confirm, but that's what the JP media says. The term "Shitennou", as many are already aware of, are originally a term used to refer to a set of 4 Buddhist guardian deities.

If true then it just feels like they're all intended to be perfectly matching sets from the start, and it just never made it into the story.

I read that Sailor Moon was originally meant to just end with the Dark Kingdom plot, so maybe sensei intended to have a Romeo and Juliet sad ending where everyone just dies in the end?

These are all based on Japanese gemology guides (same as what I used to research for the Shitennou knight titles), since I imagine it's more likely to be the one Takeuchi-sensei had access to. These may differ from international ones.

(Warning: Long post)

In the manga sensei specified that the zoisite is the blue one, that's also known as "tanzanite". The blue variety of zoisite, among other things, means "calm and intelligence".

The connection to Ami/Mercury's character is very straightforward and obvious.

In terms of romance, a zoisite also means "subdued expressions of love". It really makes me think of how gentle this pair looks in the splash art sensei drew.

Kunzite means "premonition of a lover". It's specifically oh dang when I saw this because Minako was "special" among the senshi in the way that her character vibes are based on "love" (because Venus, goddess of love), rather than the original elemental name attached to the planet. It fits enough to make you pause and wonder if this it truly a coincidence.

The planet venus originally has the element of "gold/metal". The gold is reflected in her design somewhat, but her senshi identity is more related to "love". The other girls' names matches their planets' element names. E.g Jupiter = mokusei = wood, Ki(no) = wood/tree. Mercury = suisei = water, Mizu(no) = water.

Also Venus's relationship with Kunzite ended up being the one who got the most hints actually shown in the manga, so... I do wonder.

The two jades are less overly specific like this, especially Nephrite, but well.

Jadeite is the native jade from Japan, and has been long used to make magatama since ancient times. As such it's always seen as a deeply spiritual stone, that can protect against and/or ward off evil. A perfect match for Rei, who is a miko. One wonders if sensei chose the stone because of Rei being a miko, or if she made Rei a miko after choosing this name for the one matched with her.

Edit: Japanese Wiki claims Rei being a miko was based on Takeuchi-sensei's personal experience as a part time miko. So then Jadeite had to have been named/chosen to fit her, if this theory is true.

Not to mention that Akuryou Taisan, the evil-banishing spell, is something that she uses quite often.

Nephrite is the most confusing one here, because I'm not really able to find the connection. That's why I initially had strong doubts about the rumour/claim about the gemstone names' connection to the senshi.

In the gemology guide that I referenced, its meaning is "charm of maturity". I suppose Mako has always felt like she's older than the other girls, because her hobbies (cooking and home decor) feels really motherly.

Other than that and the stone being a deep green colour similar to Jupiter's senshi outfit I'm not entirely sure. (in the manga, sensei says nephrites are "always deep green" even though IRL that's not the case)

----

Just my additional comments after reading everything that I did:

In terms of colour, I like to think Jadeite is a red jade. Not just to match Rei, but in the manga Jadeite's stone is always coloured the darkest (it's almost all-black). Of all the various jades, red is one of the darker-toned ones.

The shading can be arbitrary, especially if sensei was just tracing from reference photos. Dark green jadeite also exist, so for all I know this is intended to be green too.

But if I use the logic that the stones are matched with the girls' character, I think red just fits the best. In gemstone language the red jade means "tenacity" and "willpower". Green jades tends to be associated with things like harmony, prosperity, luck, and so on. It doesn't feel very Rei-like.

Also, the nephrite jade being a "soft jade", it's associated with very cuddly meanings such as "warm" or "gentle", which makes me laugh even more than the "wisdom" one.

Unless, again, these words are more attached to the matching girls' character, rather than the guy in question, because yes I think Mako is definitely very warm and gentle and fluffy and very huggable.

Although other-coloured zoisite varieties were said to have different meaning, it looks like blue is the predominant zoisite colour in Japan. A lot of Japanese gem sites tend to automatically just say "it's blue" while describing zoisite, even though there's obviously other colours out there.

Sensei did specify it's "blue zoisite, a.k.a tanzanite" in the manga, so I think she's aware of the other colours having different meanings attached. Some articles also had mentioned Takeuchi-sensei's family runs a jewellery store?

I wonder if this is why Crystal went with the gemstone's healing properties for Zoi's title though, because the gemstone words overlaps too much with Mercury in a very in-the-face way. The other meanings are Hope, Mystery, Pride, and Noble, and maybe those don't make very good title names? Like, the only viable one is probably Hope, though I feel like it would be even more confusing if Crystal said Zoi is the "Knight of Hope" or whatever.

Another thing about Kunzite is that its meaning also include "pure and everlasting love", but the website caveated this that this is a saintly kind of love (for the gem's association with Holy Mother Mary). So it's not necessarily something to get overly excited about in terms of SenShi headcanoning, but, well, it's there.

"Shitennou" in Japanese pop culture is generally used to just mean "4 very important people", so it didn't have to actually mean anything. Like, a few samurai in history had their "shitennou", who are just the best 4 generals serving under them. Most famous being the Tokugawa shitennou, but other samurai lords actually have their own so-called shitennou. It's just that if the senshi are officially named "Guardians", then this changes the context.

[alevolpe]

If there was a re-boot of sailor moon with you writing it I would CONSUME that stuff. Your headcanons and concepts sound so much cooler than the original show :') (I still love the og show dearly, but like- yours just has a more complex vibe and I'm living for it.)

Also question, what do you mean by princess serenity being jealous that Usagi gets to live life and not her? Is it sort of like an inner voice for Usagi and the other guardians??

Hi First I wanna mention that this is also a very old ask and it came out before I posted my summary for my AU season 2, which goes into further details about Serenity. Second of all, Thank you so much!

It means a lot that people are not only willing to listen to me babble about my AU, but that they ask so many questions about it, it’s heartwarming, truly! <3 <3

Though, getting back to your Princess Serenity question, Princess Serenity doesn’t ‘despise’ Usagi as a person, she just feels an immense resentment toward her existence after Minako points out that Serenity is stealing her life.

Quick recap, Serenity back in silmil accepted a deal by Venus to let herself be killed by Venus’ sword so that her soul would persist through the next life, lying dormant within Usagi til the right moment where Serenity could regain control of her new reincarnated body and get to live a new fair life.

She, much like Queen Serenity (way more so than her tho), is not an outright malicious person, she doesn’t willingly choose to make decisions that will cause harm to others. She does feel good about helping other people, but not it at the cost of depriving herself from goods, services, people, etc.. cause she was lead to believe she’s deserving of such privileges. To her they aren’t privileges, gifts, they are a RIGHT, much like life. Her new life is something the universe owes her, her past life was terrible, she deserves to live free from the responsibility of being Queen and just live happily with her lover.

Much like many people, Serenity chooses to turn her cheek to things she doesn’t wanna see and closes herself in a reality where she can be happy. In silmil it was her life with her ‘friend’ Venus and especially her lover Endymion, choosing to stay oblivious of the suffering of humans back on Earth and the suffering of her fellow soldiers. She doesn’t like being accused that her ignorance and selfishness could be a direct cause of people’s suffering.

And this is where Usagi comes into the picture. Why does Usagi deserve this new life more than her? The universe gave HER her rightful second chance, Usagi well, Serenity’s mentality when directly addressed to this is basically “sucks for her” (tho she wouldn’t say this out loud cause it would undeniably confirm to herself and others that she IS selfish and she IS NOT ‘oblivious’ to it anymore, she’s actively choosing self preservation over the given life of another).

At the beginning Serenity only manifests in a “feeling” when interacting with Mamoru, it’s not a particularly strong one, it doesn’t affect Usagi’s feelings toward him apart from the feeling of “I feel like I’ve seen you before”, tho as the season goes on, her presence is more and more felt, not only by Usagi, but also the people around her and it all ’explodes’ at the moment of Rei’s ‘death’ in season 1 (tldr, the senshi except Usagi and Mina are called to a mission which is in reality a booby trap by Kunzite and Zoisite, the girls get their shit kicked in and when Usagi appears she pleads to give the Crystal for their lives. Kunzite ‘accepts’ but tried to kill Usagi regardless, Rei steps in the way and gets stabbed). At this point Serenity comes to Usagi as a force, rendering her hollow, much like Serenity is shown in her first appearance in the anime, but much scarier, sending her now hollow senshi (Mercury and Jupiter) to brutally attack the 2 generals, while she embraces Rei, healing her just in time. Venus comes in and bashes Usagi on the head, severing the fragile connection between Usagi and Serenity at that moment and returning Jupiter and Mercury to their status quo.

From then on Serenity’s voice is ever so present within Usagi, but Usagi chooses to be silent about it with the others, thinking it might just be the Silver Crystal and her ally (Serenity keeping quiet on who she rlly is and her true intentions, the only reason she even communicates with Usagi is to make sure she prioritizes Endymion’s safety).

Other than her, Venus and Mars are really the only inners to keep a fairly strong connection to their reincarnated ‘selves’.

I’ve explained Venus’ role int he story many times, so I’ll keep it brief and just mention the ways she keeps contact with Mina. She torments Mina on a daily basis, depending how far into the seasons, she can just be a voice within Mina, to appearing as outright hallucinations.

She will appear through reflections, speak to her through tvs, radios and even in writings. When her connection is weaker, she just limits to mimicking and using voices around Mina, but as the connection grows stronger, she will be able to fully use her own voice/appearance to communicate with her.

At the beginning Mina was fairly trusting of her, while still being skeptical of the whole deal around silmil, she listened to Venus’ demands to fully dedicate herself into becoming a sailor senshi and become a good leader, otherwise, she thought, it would cause the fall of civilization as they know it and the death of her ‘soon to be’ teammates by the hands of the Dark kingdom. During this period Venus could be considered almost a mentor to Mina, while keeping a sharp edge on her approach. Using intimidation, mockery and guilt-tripping as her main forms of manipulation.

As for Mars, she is very low key with her approach of interacting with Rei. Unlike Venus, Mars is a genuinely good person, only wishing to guide Rei, but not being willing to step over the line if Rei steps up boundaries with her. Her main way of communication with Rei is through visions, offering Rei guidance and a helping hand, understanding the heavy toll recurring visions can have on someone and the enormous responsibility this role carries.

As for Mercury and Jupiter, they have little no interest (or means) to interact with their reincarnations. Jupiter much less so, honestly being content to just cease existing. While Mercury only appearing to Ami during the very few moments she’s ‘allowed’ to (ex. Sailor Mercury’s transformation, appearing as a sort of sinister figure who passes down the torch to Ami, as to say). Still she has little interest to interact with this new vessel, embellishing in her own amusement while sitting on the back lines, watching over the ever evolving car crash taking place. Life is such a curios thing.

Small elements of their personality re-emerging when Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Mercury are taken over by Serenity and the Silver Crystal. Mercury constantly presenting an eerie amused smile while Jupiter taking the whole opposite stand, never smiling, hunching over, seeming to sulk in her own miserable existence.

acotar sailor moon au

So, so far, who's who?

*I decided to end up switching Cresseida and Nesta because of the vibes

The only rule here is that when the Transformation happens, they gender swap (for shenanigans) + plus Japanese terms and vague setting

Also y'all, I'm not a zodiac person, I just did this for fun, don't take it too seriously okay?? Okay???

Sailor Moon (Purple) Cancer = Rhysand

Cancer: emotional, intuitive, sometimes insecure, associated with water and the moon (misting and stuff)

bocchan, spoiled, flirtatious

Thinking of having the sailor uniform be a mix of yellow, dark blue, and switch out the red for purple. Princess Serenity transformation is similar: white hair, white clothes, but violet eyes.

Was thinking maybe (as a hc) when Princess Serenity went to the human world, she used a different identity maybe?? Maybe a name like Rhiannon??? (aka similar to how Rhys looks now with black hair)

A spoiled rich kid, went to private school until he weaseled his way into public school (with his cousin Mor) and met Cassian. Az tagged along.

Sailor Mercury (Blue) Virgo = Azriel

Virgo: humble, practical, sympathetic, water sign (blue siphon + also associated with mist)

secret bodyguard to bocchan Rhys, a smart kid, straight A student, pushes up glasses with a glint, has those thin sleek glasses, tsundere chuuni otaku, has a knife somewhere, used to clash with Cassian, very protective of Rhys, learns to open up as a friend, always takes the mission serious

fights a lot against Zoisite-Eris (as Sailor Mercury) and also has lessons with Teacher Eris (as a regular college student)

Sailor Mars (Red) Aries = Cassian

Aries: wants to prove himself, values strength, competitive, impatient, active, fire sign (red siphon)

a high school delinquent, once had a pompadour, in a biker gang for sure, made fast friends with Rhys, Azriel saw Cassian as a safety risk, now they just bicker, fought in a gang war with Mor once and they came out bros, sees Rhys as his brother (Rhys definitely calls him Aniki just because it's hilarious how quickly it goes to his head), likes attention, a bit arrogant

was thinking to originally be Mor cause red, but idk vibes??? tbh you could switch around Rei, Mako, and Minako and they would all work in some way (but I'm adding a bit of OOC since I'm character building them)

I personally think Cassian should have had a goofy prince like personality in the book (for compensating for being a 'bastard') and actually accepts that he's people's hero while also being deeply insecure about it (and that's why Eris's barbs about him would hit harder)

Sailor Jupiter (Green) Sagittarius = Mor

Sagittarius: faithful, intelligent, forceful, sympathetic, values freedom, fire sign

a ex-sukeban, got into a lot of fights with Cassian's gang, used to smoke until a pretty girl said they hated the smell, eats pocky instead, has gotten expelled a few times, bubbly, used to carry a bat around, first girlfriend was in elementary school (except she didn't know they were Dating until the Incident), also has a bike, likes partying, has the highest alcohol tolerance but is confused how she's beaten by a talking cat, teases everyone (no one is safe)

the only one to gender swap into a guy, flirts with all the women she saves, ends up coming off as a playboy, saves Nesta once and fell in love, Nesta hates her flirty attitude as Sailor Jupiter but slowly becomes friends with Mor because Clare suddenly starts hanging out with Mor

Clare ends up finding out her identity and it causes Problems

Sailor Venus (Orange) Libra = Lucien

Libra: extroverted, friendly, has always wanted peace (with family, with life choices), honest, blunt, persuasive, charming, charismatic

grew up in a strict home with Eris, the problem child, seemingly very open with people but can close up if he's insecure, had a close relationship with Eris until Beron strained their relationship, was a solo Sailor Senshi with Varian (cat form) until joining everyone, has angst with fighting against Zoisite Eris

Tuxedo Mask (Leo) = Tamlin

Leo: compassionate, big-hearted, natural leadership, self-assured, fire sign

This guy has three outfit ideas: Civilian Mamoru - wears a dark green suit like in the anime, thinks he's cool but is not, is cool when he's not trying to be, has chin length hair with those round spiral glasses, goes from Clark Kent to Superman basically, instantly clashes with Rhys / Tuxedo Mask - the traditional black tuxedo, roses, roses everywhere, has a mask too, this time his hair is tied back and grows out to his shoulders (because anime logic), Sailor Moon Rhys and Tuxedo Mask Tam have a very obvious Thing going on / Endymion - the completely white outfit, this time his hair gets extra long because it's his Final Form but it's not tied, flows in the wind very majestically (Pantene commercial esque, very angst)

Zoisite = Eris

the vibes mostly (the hair)

but fun stuff is that Zoisite was with Kunzite in the 90s anime but was hinted in the manga to be with Sailor Mercury (not really but)

Kunzite was originally Nesta but now it's Cresseida, so ship vibes?? But the only ship that's set is tamsand rn (and tarlain)

Started working with Queen Beryl (Amarantha) because she promised to punish his father (something Eris didn't have the power to do without causing a lot of trouble)

Also works as a teacher sometimes now that his father is out of commission

Jadeite = Feyre

pretty boy, grey eyes

but was recruited by Amarantha to save their father's life (who's human), contrasted with Cassian, once Feyre 'dies' and was forced to give up the power Amarantha gave her, she meshes really well with the gang

Nephrite = Nesta

the first picture gives me Nesta vibes

has a romance arc with Naru Clare because I'm personally sweet on Nesta/Clare, but angst because Clare doesn't know Nephrite is Nesta, is trying her best to save their father (currently held hostage by Amarantha)

Was originally Cresseida to opposite Mor but I changed my mind (my intuition said so)

Kunzite = Cresseida

I was convinced by the white hair and cresseris possibility but

she's forcibly recruited by Amarantha unlike the others that 'willingly' work for her, but eventually defects with the help of Tarquin after she finds out about his other identity

Sailor Pluto (Scorpio) = Jurian

for laughs mostly

but also because I needed a milf/dilf in here fr

and Jurian in canon also finds himself out of time from being an eye

Sailor Uranus (Aquarius) = Elain

trans Elain agenda always

watches over her father while her sisters are being evil, ends up getting recruited by Varian to save them

Sailor Neptune (Pisces) = Tarquin

sea vibes (my sign, so best)

uhhh has cute moments with Elain

Sailor Saturn (Capricorn) = Emerie

literally the last one, and we need more Emerie content

(based off their hair color)

Luna (Black Hair) = Amren

Artemis (White Hair) = Varian

Naru = Clare

Queen Beryl = Amarantha

[yamino]

Quick Question

You've probably been asked this question a lot but I'll ask anyways, who's your favourite of the Sailor Scouts? (Mines Sailor Jupiter, as a trans girl I like her combination of toughness and femininity, plus, we share the same star sign and she uses lightning)

A lot of people have headcanons about trans Mako and I love that. ❤️ She also speaks to so many GNC people because she's got so many interesting layers to her. (Also she's just super cool.)

If you had asked me who my favorite was when I was 13, I would have had an impossible time answering between Uranus and Neptune, who I was completely obsessed with at the time. I still really really love them (I think Neptune is particularly interesting to explore, given that she has apparently been tormented her entire life by realistic hallucinations of the world ending... yikes) and they also have such a fun dynamic, not to mention the very important nostalgia element of my very first canon wlw ship to latch onto for representation.

Saturn is also a contender because I find her whole background fascinating (especially if you go with the manga canon of her dad turning her into a cyborg??) She has a very Stranger Things weird monster child vibe and I LOVE that. She's so many things all at once. So much to work with there.

Mercury was never my focus when I was younger, but she's popped up in almost all my recent comics so I guess I like her more than I realized. 😆 She's a great foil to everyone else's antics when they're wilding out and she's the only one with any sense. (Or shame) And she is so cute. 

I also really love Mars because she's so pretty and has a lot of interesting outfits to draw her in (my favorite is her miko robes) and I also love mean/grouchy girls so she's fun to write, too.  😼 I love exploring her emotional constipation and those rare moments where she shows vulnerability. But I also like writing her bullying Ami. 😈

If I had to pick who I am the most LIKE, everyone I know says I'm Venus. She is also one of my favorites to write/draw because she is just so... ADHD 🤣 (just like me) I love her goofy side which is sometimes genuine and sometimes a mask to cover her very serious and dark thoughts. Of all the inners, she's been awoken and fighting for the longest, and although she always tries to hide behind a smile and a joke, she may be the most emotionally scarred of all. All she wants is for someone to acknowledge her, tell her she's doing a good job, but the role she's been given is a thankless one.

The Batfam as the Sailor Moon Characters

Bruce/Batman: Easy, the one and only Sailor Moon. He’s fighting evil by moonlight and winning love by daylight. He is the main character and is the princess. His Brucie Wayne personality is just Usagi’s personality and none of you can change my mind.

Damian: Again, easy. He’s the son of Batman so he would be Chibi Moon. He’s cocky, sometimes annoying, and picks fights with his father and siblings. Very much Chibi Moon behavior.

Talia al Ghul or Catwoman: I’m a bit convicted on this one. As for lore-wise, Talia is the obvious choice for Tuxedo Mask, being Damian’s mother, however, Catwoman makes a better dynamic with her often helping Batman out with Bruce being left swooned and wondering the identity of the mysterious woman under the cat mask. I anything, Catwoman can be Sailor Starfighter, Seiya, from the Sailor Starlights. You guys can choose. Hell, it can be Superman can be Tuxedo Mask.

Dick Grayson: Now, I might get some flack on this but...Sailor Mars. Hear me out. Yes, Mars and Sailor Moon often bicker and fight throughout the show, however, they also have the closest bond with each other. Dick has these both. When he doesn’t agree with Bruce he voices it but he also the one, other than Alfred, that understands him best. Also, he has a temper that is fit for Mars.

Jason Todd: Between Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Uranus. He’s strong, stubborn, and hot-headed at times but he does have a big heart and a gentle side to him that he’s often afraid to show or that is often overlooked. It’s a bit of a toss-up but I’m leaning towards Uranus more. You guys decide.

Tim Drake: Sailor Mercury. I mean, do I have to explain why? He’s unbelievably smart but there is also that habit of being too hard on himself and not thinking he’s good enough.

Barbara Gordon: Sailor Pluto. She’s dependable and responsible. She’s someone that the bat family can go talk to. She’s also very alert and aware of situations in which she uses it to help the family.

Stephanie Brown: Sailor Venus. No doubt. If she and Minako ever met they would be best friends in no time. Steph just has that star power. That light.

Cassandra Cain: Sailor Saturn. She is an absolute sweetheart, is loyal to a fault, and would destroy you if you get in her way.

Duke Thomas: This one is also between Jupiter and Uranus but leaning more towards Jupiter. He gives me that Jupiter vibe.

Sera Myu: Musical Festival -Chronicle- Review

You know when something just hits you deep in your core and you can’t help but be a sobbing mess on the floor? Yes, that was me.

When this musical was first announced, I really had no idea what to expect. I had predicted it would be like an Ai no Sanctuary 2.0, and then they said it would be mostly Kaguya-Hime songs, that turned out to be a big ass lie. WHICH I’m grateful for. Not that I don’t love those songs, but the musical was truly something beautiful and shiny and celebrates the history of Myu in its own beautiful way! The song list is mainly NelkeMyu songs (2013-2017, NogiMyu, The Super Live) with a tiny sprinkle of Bandai thrown in for flavor (though, they are newer versions as seen in NogiMyu and The Super Live). Speaking of new arrangements, nearly every song was re-arranged! Whether it be new instruments, new lyrics, or something along those lines, all except a very few songs were re-arranged for the musical and I love the new feel to songs! And the 2 new songs (Chronicle the Story of Sailor Moon and Eternal Cycle) are SO good. Eternal Cycle in particular made me start crying with how beautiful it was. 

The cast REALLY showed off. I saw both the second-to-last and the senshuuraku performances. While the vocals are better in the earlier show, the emotions are much stronger in the final show. Riko-Moon in particular REALLY redeemed herself for me. I liked her last musical, but I REALLY loved her this time. She really put her all in this time, and I’m SO proud of her. Her vocals snatched me in the earlier showing, and her determination and power wowed me in the senshuuraku. I’m so grateful she got to play her again. ;w;

I have to address the elephant in the room. Kisara’s vocals. If you remember last year, she nearly had the best vocals out of all the inners. However, I could tell even in the first day’s livestream, she was lip-syncing. And this year, we found out why. Kisara really struggles at live singing. There were some times she sounded pretty okay (when she sings high in her head voice, she sounds really good most of the time), but her voice breaks when singing low. Which is kinda bad when you’re playing Sailor Jupiter... ^^; Some friends in the SoS Discord think she was sick. It’s a possibility. IDK how to feel Because I lowkey felt like she broke immersion a bit in some songs, but I really like her as Jupiter at the same time. I’m torn. ;-;

MVP award goes to miss Riona Tatemichi who has climbed ALL THE WAY to the TOP of my favorite Tux list. Yes, she beat out the previously untouchable Yu Shirota. She made an extremely gay man swoon. SHE DID THAT, SHE DESERVES THAT SPOT. xD

MVP AWARD ALSO GOES TO MISS CHISE NIITSU. HELLO? NEW FAVORITE CHIBI MOON. She really REALLY leveled up from her Chibi Chibi days. I actually wasn’t huge on her Chibi Chibi back in the day and vastly preferred Hinari. But she was SUCH a cute Chibiusa with a powerful, strong voice! I can’t help but love her!

I’m just generally in love with the current outers. Shinju-Uranus grew on me this musical. I think she pairs really well with Ayana and MISS AYANA?! NEW FAVE NEPTUNE AS WELL WTF AND MISS YUKA IDE? NEW FAVE SATURN. This Musical gave me a bunch of new faves. Chisato-Pluto also FINALLY got a chance to shine and QUEEN I LOVE YOU. (Still mad Nelke hasn’t given you a solo song or at least let you cover Chronos Guardian though ;O; )

If you want a story summary, check out @crazykacey​‘s! I don’t understand Japanese, so I actually used his review and context of watching to understand the musical. All I can say is fantastic BandaiMyu vibes and a very fun musical! I’m pretty tired after this Musical season. I really went in on reporting (on Twitter and Discord LMAO) and doing some things (which will be revealed in the near future) so IDK how to end this review. Long story short, the musical is really worth your time and from the very beginning, you’re probably gonna cry. It’s a great time, and I hope you all get the chance to see it! ALSO PRE-ORDER THE DVD OR BLU-RAY. Thank you. XD

If there was a new dub of winx club with a new cast of voice actors, this is my dream cast

Bloom: Marisha Ray

She has done some voice acting roles but it’s just ✨vibes✨for me. Besides voice acting, she’s the Creative Director for Critical Role (where a bunch of nerdy ass voice actors sit around and play Dungeons and Dragons). The three main characters she plays shows off her range as as actor. Roles include Oboro (Fire Emblem Heroes) and Margaret (Persona 4: Dancing All Night)

Stella: Cheremi Leigh

When I was even thinking of this casting, Cheremi Leigh as Stella is the FIRST THING that popped into my head. Some notable roles are Minako Aino/Sailor Venus (Sailor Moon) (who is basically the same person as our favorite sparkly blonde) and Lucy Heartfillia(Fairy Tail)

Flora: Sarah-Nicole Robles

She’s a bit of a voice acting newcomer but what she has done is AMAZING. She’s well known for being the voice of Luz Noceda in The Owl House. I feel like she can pull off the vibes of our favorite plant mom™️

Aisha: Anairis Quinones

Roles include Harriet Bree (RWBY), Mirko (My Hero Academia), and Hinatsuru (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba). Hearing her show off her acting skills in these and her other roles, I really think she can take a shot at Aisha.

Musa: Cristina Valenzuela/Erika Ishii

Personally, I can chose between these two talented icons for Musa. Out of her basically 400 voice roles, Cristina Valenzuela is mostly knows for being the voice of Rei Hino/Sailor Mars (Sailor Moon), Marinette/Ladybug (Miraculous Ladybug), and Robyn Hill (RWBY). Erika's roles include Valkyrie (Apex Legends), Mary Marvel (Young Justice), Angel Cookie (Cookie Run: Kingdom), and Maddy Cho (Marvel Avengers)

Tecna: Amanda C Miller

Here’s yet another Sailor Moon cast member in this cast. What can I say? The Viz Cast of Sailor Moon are really talented. In it, she’s the voice of Makoto Kino/Sailor Jupiter. Besides Mako, roles include Flutterina (She Ra and the Princesses of Power), Junko Enoshima and Touko Fukawa (Danganronpa 3: Killing Harmony), and Boruto (Naruto Shippuden) I feel like Mako and Tecna have similar vibes also her voice is a bit deeper and that kinda fits (as in similar to Morgan Decker’s Tecna)

[everythingthemoontouches]

💙Hi there! , First of all i want to tell you that i love your blog! And i love how your posts are so accurate!💙 If its okay with you could you please do me a favor by describing how others see me,my appearance or more specifically the vibe I radiate to others! It would mean alot to me if you you do that💙I'm a cancer sun,leo rising,Lilith sextile asc, Pluto trine asc, Uranus opposition asc, Moon opposition asc, mars sextile venus, mars opposition neptune, asteroid lilith conjunct mc and jupiter in the 1st house!💙

Hola!

Thank you that's really kind of you 💛💕

You know that quote that says Cinderella never asked for a prince. All she wanted was a night out and a dress. You kind of exude a similar vibe but with respect to leadership positions. 'I never asked to be Queen/King, but the people have spoken' kind of an energy. You would be equally happy to be by yourself, learning about the subconscious mind, higher realms and other esoteric science.

For more on Jupiter in LEO I'd recommend watching Astrofinesse.

For jupiter in the first there's KRS.

🌻As a Leo rising you come across as someone outgoing, with a playful energy but you're also somehow someone people would expect to see in a position of authority. You're drawn to people who stimulate you intellectually and love to exchange ideas.

😬If you have an Aquarius saturn you could be having some challenges in your relationships since December 2020 as saturn transits your 7th house. I'd suggest practicing discernment in this area as well as signing contracts with people until it passes( early 2023) ..

😇12th house sun could take on other people's energy. I feel like you need some time away, by yourself, preferably at the beach / pool/ shower to declutter, clear your head and replenish your sense of Self. You could be highly intuitive. If this resonates, I'd urge you to look up empath drain and how to protect yourself from energy vampires.

Ruler of the ascendant in the 12th :

spirituality could be a huge part of your life. For some people this could show a father (figure) who was convicted or worked in a prison / asylum. They could also have a really remote job. Since the sun is also your own personal identity, you could profit off these themes. Working in a mental health facility, overseas, in esoteric crafts.

🌛With your moon in the 7th house, you probably attract a lot of older women, (queen of swords) nurturing energies . Your mom could have a major influence on any business partnerships that you enter.

In relationships you could have a here today gone tomorrow kind of a presence. This is because as the moon waxes and wanes so does your attraction / attachment to specific people?

♒Aquarius moon : it could be really hard for you to express your feelings. So Instead of asking for a hug there could be a tendency to say something like ' ew imagine asking for one?' you leave a place better than you found it. If you watch hindi movies, 3 Idiots could be a movie you really resonate with. ( I pretty much spent the day looking up the lead actor, who has major aquarius placements and his films have always been disruptive with a really nice social message that left people talking for years after they were released. I tell you this because he shares 2 of your big 3 - aquarius and cancer.)

Going off on this tangent you could be a well respected teacher / writer / entertainer. Jupiter in LEO could help with this.

I do feel like you need a certain amount of inventiveness in your relationships. The people you're with are people who introduce you to new hobbies / ideas / technologies. You need to feel like you guys learn something new or create something that matters together. This is enhanced by uranus in the 7th house. You could come across really cold because you always give people the naked honest truth when asked. You do this from a place of love. I'm reminded of the Queen of Swords card in the rider Waite tarot. Not everyone has the maturity to take it. Or maybe they've just had a bad day. It is what it is. Perhaps try to not be so incisive if this is something you struggle with.

In the same vein, if I asked you to write down how you were feeling how long would it take for you to identify the right emotion. How honest are you with yourself?

Moon and Uranus being in the same house could show that stagnation could really hurt your mental health / happiness / satisfaction levels.

With a saturn ruled moon I feel like I need to remind you to not be so hard on yourself. Like. The world won't crumble to dust if you allow yourself to take care of you once in a while.there's only so much you can do.

All those coffee mugs will catch up. There's no such thing as extra hours in the day. A lack of sleep manifests as early signs of aging. No hate for the elderly but arthritis is not a fun ailment to have. Do you wanna be 60 with 80 year old nervous system problems? I rest my case.

Uranus and moon aspect your ascendant so you could have a slightly plump look?

Jupiter in the first house people usually have prominent thighs. I had a friend with this placement and when we were growing up she used to complain of chafed thighs a lot?

Mars sextile venus you could be your own type? The way you act and the way you want your future partners to express love could be quite similar which is good for healthy relationships.

There could be a tendency to spend impulsively.

With Mars sextiling venus you could be someone who earns more the more active their lifestyle is? Like, you may need to be an agile learner to keep money flowing in .

Jupiter in LEO in a woman's chart usually shows they'd have a financially well off spouse so money may not be a huge concern. He could be a sailor or earn via exports/ navy. It's hard to say without knowing where your Saturn is.

The image you project to the world could be a lot more outgoing than how you actually feel. You're more private than people think.

With a fire rising, water sun and air moon you could either be a really balanced person or just have a number of clashing ideas on who to be, what to do and achieve.

Descendant : The people that hate on you could attack your need to stand out /try to dim your time in the spotlight. Think aquarius themes of standing out to improve community clashing with Leo's need to stand out solely because it helps their ego. Like your confidence could trigger the part if them that felt judged negatively for expressing their individuality.

Do you feel like you thrive in chaos? I'm guessing you're atleast in your late 20s if not older, so you might have gotten better at dealing with people acting unexpectedly. Your mom could have been unpredictable. Really intelligent, but forgets to eat ..

🥤🦀As a cancer sun, you could be the friend your friends come to for advice. There could be a tendency to be a little too selfless. I think your aqua moon really serves as a shield to those who try to take advantage of your caring nature. Have you considered a career in psychic medium ship? Or any spiritual art/ past life regression / you get the drift..

Is there a family craft or hobby that you could monetize? Jupiter in LEO could signify ancestral gains.

Lilith and Pluto aspects to ascendant can make you come across really sexy / a bit unapproachable because people feel like you have some kind of power that places you above them?

Due to this, people with Pluto / Lilith aspects can feel some kind of hurt around people clearing up the path around them if that makes sense.

Jupiter opposite moon : there could be a clash between you want to do VS what you feel you should be doing.

Jupiter in the first house : you could have been born rich? Or people just perceive you that way. They also see you as someone wordly wise and lucky in general. You could know a lot about a wide variety of things. Specially on topics related to appearance, personal development, image consciousness etc. Since the ruler of the first is in the 12th I feel like some of your wisdom comes from a divine source. Like you're tapping into some kind of a collective reservoir of knowledge. In starseed terminology we would refer to this as downloads.

Jupiter rules the 8th house and 5th house.

So love, romance, games, early education may have been a bit of a breeze for you.

Jupiter is usually a bit of a celibate spiritual person. So, while it may make you really wise with respect to things like the occult / tarot / other 8th house themes, I'm not sure how it would impact your sex life with a spouse. Sex could be either a deeply spiritual experience for you or take on more neptunian traits. Addiction / alcoholism / drug use the works. Jupiter expands the themes of the house it rules so a word of caution there.

Travelling could bring you luck. Or even love.

Did I hear Mars opposite Neptune?

This could be a literal battlefield. You could feel like you need to work for love.if Neptune is unconditional love and Mars is your drive, then you could literally match to get to taht elusive unconditional sense of belonging /love / acceptance. But what are you marching towards really? A mirage? With this aspect I'd really be on the guard against addiction of any kind. Neptune is enticing, alluring, mocking Mars for its need to conquer. It could lend a really nice swagger to your walk. A runway model could benefit from thus placement. At uts best this aspect imbues you with creativity, inspiration, otherworldly imagination and the energy required to turn your abstract ideas of art into something tangible.

Here's a source for more on this placement. Sometimes I find that the comments really help me make sense of my own placements

Toodles

Before I sign off, I just have to say this :please try to restrict asks to 2-3 placements. You can send in multiple asks if you'd like, but answering them all in one ask can get a bit cluttered and I'd hate to miss out on something 😊

Hope this helped 💕as always, I'd really appreciate your feedback on this take on how these placements affect you.

Usagi/Haruka shipping is the second most popular with Haruka after Michiru

And I am distinctly not a fan of the pairing, not least because of how it's written. It almost invariably goes for demonizing Michiru for no reason other than contriving something to happen in the plot. I despise storylines that invariably go here, and if it's the only way a writer or set of writers can do it it leads to a distinct aversion to the idea.

There's also that under setting rules with Senshi and Princess any Senshi-Princess relationship verges into 'can Senshi refuse Usagi if she uses anything even subconsciously of Princess magic whether or not she'd know she is doing this, which I do not think she would in the least if she did know.' And I think there is a definite deconstruction of the premise here that'd play it entirely straight without demonizing anyone but it's not the kind of story I've ever seen written here.

Add to this that Usagi/Haruka shippers invariably demonize Michiru as a flat, perfect character which the least characterized take of her in the manga very much is not and far less so with the original anime, and well.....basically there's more 'why I dislike Michiru Kaioh' than anything to actually recommend Usagi and Haruka and f this is a shipping conversation that's kind of a Godzilla-sized elephant in the room.

I will note re: ethics of Senshi and Princess that this does come up in my Haruka-as-Princess-Serenity AU and that this is at least a part of where things started a downhill slide in the Silver Millennium, as some of the less savory aspects played right into Nehellennia's curse. Haruka does not remember it, Michiru remembers Silver Millennium Neptune's desperation to be a person and this leads her to put rose colored glasses on something not nearly so rosy.

In the Haruka-as-Princess-Serenity AU the whole past life and present life scenario is given a more merciless deconstruction, as is my take on the whole idea of past life relationships carrying on into the present. Yes, in my takes on Sailor Moon Neptune and Uranus were together in the Silver Millennium. It was a desperate thing to try to reclaim humanity and purge solitude and not truly a 'relationship' with Silver Millennium Uranus having more of an actual relationship for a few centuries with Silver Millennium Jupiter before she and Mercury finally settled down and worked out the kinks in their relationship.

Silver Millennium Jupiter was the only Inner with an actual grasp of the Outers as people and not just distant superheroic symbols, modern age Jupiter has no clear memories of this, only a distant vibe of emotional connections to Haruka and an aversion to Michiru, and those fade pretty quickly exposed to the actual human beings.

But given the kind of power the Princess has over the Senshi there's a surprising reluctance to deal with this in Usagi-and-Senshi shipping stories. I do not think any Senshi could bluntly tell her no if she expressed interest in them however far she took it. That is a challenge that has to be addressed.

the-cosmic-gentle-giant tumblrs birth

Kinda scared ngl, but here goes 🙈

This blog is a Water Dominant and has a Cancer Signature.

Some Insights:

First off, my blog has a Saggitarius Rising, meaning you guys could perceive me as open minded and broad minded, which can be seen on the occasional activist reblog related to the lgbtq+ community, addressing racism and more. You guys could also see me as adventurous and wise in some way. Possibly ignorant and tactless too, someone chasing my own eccentricities perhaps? A vibe of doing what I want...

Now I also noticed the Cancer Stellium and Chiron in 4th. This could explain my sensitivity to emotions and also the way I could come across as a "mother hen" protective, nurturing figure in the community. Just here to show that I care. 🤗💛🌻

That Jupiter in the 12th House showing the eagerness to expand in the areas of spirituality and the metaphysical as well as wishing to sharpen my skills and talent in this area. As well as Mars and Mercury in the 8th showing the inclination towards occult interests and even exploring sexual and studious topics.

Anywho, this is what I got out of it. I really really need ro learn how to read a chart better and more accurately. I'm a real noob. I also need to just thank @sailor-solar for the research she put into social media charts and cuz she is just amazing and you guys should definitely check her out here . Also @smadhuman deserves to be tagged because they gave me the courage/ inspiration to post this.

My talent triangle explained

[funwithkpop]

Casting Kpop: Sailor Moon

Just a little post to explain the idols I picked, with the flagship series of this blog, Sailor Moon.

Now people have chosen idols to be the Sailor Scouts before but I wanted to do something a little bit different with my choices.

In addition to the idol’s personality and appearance, I wanted to take age into account. For example, Tuxedo Mask being significantly older than Sailor Moon.

It’s not perfect, Sailor Moon’s pick being the oldest of the Inner Senshi is definitely not expected, but I still like how it all came together.

Sana (Twice) as Sailor Moon

Starting with the titular character, I made the most cliché choice because sometimes the most obvious answer is the right one. Sana started out with a cutesy ditzy klutzy image but she later matured into an elegant yet still cheerful young lady, just like Usagi. The iconic Cheer Up MV, where she cosplays as Sailor Moon, combined with her affinity for pigtails, buns, blonde hair and shades of pink and purple, Sana embodies Sailor Moon perfectly.

Binnie (Oh My Girl) as Sailor Mercury

When I went down the list of female idols known for short hair, few have rocked it as well and as long as Binnie. Also, Ami has a demure gentle vibe and Binnie presents those traits very well in MVs like Closer.

SinB (Gfriend) as Sailor Mars

As queen of the resting bitch face in kpop, SinB is the only idol who can capture the aloof mystery of Rei in the manga and the fiery feistiness of Rei in the anime.

Eunbin (CLC) as Sailor Jupiter

CLC as a whole has the sweet yet tomboyish edge of Makoto but Eunbin really has the look, particularly her tall height and wavy brown hair.

Yeri (Red Velvet) as Sailor Venus

With her occasional blonde hair and affinity for the color orange plus her quirky outspoken personality, Yeri was born to be Minako.

Jin (BTS) as Tuxedo Mask

Worldwide handsome himself just had to be one of the biggest heartthrobs in anime history, not only does Jin have the suave charm and good looks to play Tuxedo Mask, he has the snarky sense of humor to pull off the bickering couple dynamic Mamoru has with Usagi.

The Rest

In regards to the outer senshi, Hani (EXID) is extremely intelligent like Pluto, Moonbyul (Mamamoo) is androgynous like Uranus and Solar (Mamamoo) is sophisticated like Neptune.

Chibi Moon and Saturn were the biggest examples of how age came into play when picking the idols. Honestly I don’t know much about Na Haeun and Takara (Busters), I just know they have the look and feel of Chibiusa and Hotaru respectively.

For the Sailor Starlights, it was simply a choice of female K-Pop stars known for boyish haircuts. Amber is the most iconic androgynous idol ever so she had to be the leader of these trans icons, Seiya, Choa is the most feminine, Yaten, and Cheetah is the most mature, Taiki.

Symbolism

Sailor Moon’s choice being Japanese/foreign is representative of Sailor Moon’s country of origin and the franchise's global reach.

The power couple of the franchise, Mamoru and Usagi, is formed by a member of the biggest boy group, BTS, and the biggest girl group, Twice, in modern K-pop.

Binnie’s zodiac sign is Virgo just like Sailor Mercury.

Jupiter and Venus joined the team significantly later than the first three senshi, Eunbin and Yeri were also later additions to their respective groups. Yeri in particular is the fifth and final member of her group just like Venus.

The picks for the first three Outer Senshi are all intertwined, obviously Moonbyul and Solar are in a group together and often shipped with each other, but Hani and Moonbyul are both part of the famous “1992 club” while Solar has collaborated with Hani.

[princess-of-the-corner]

True, Tuxedo and Jupiter can be plant buddies. And should we give Sailor Moon some kind of elemental power? Water would fit the moon theme (cause tides) and she can vibe with Mercury, and maybe air since that element hasn't been used.

Yeah do none of them have an Air power?

SM already kinda has Light/Energy based ones so I don't think she needs changed much
