Episode 83 (Season 2/ Sailor Moon R) "The Shocking Future! Dimande's Dark Ambition" (Dub: "Legend of the Negamoon")
Original Air Date: January 29th, 1994 (Dub: December 14th, 1998) Cast: Sailor Moon/Usagi-Kotono Mitsuishi (Dub: Terri Hawkes) Sailor Mercury/Ami-Aya Hisakawa (Dub: Karen Bernstein) Sailor Mars/Rei-Michie Tomizawa (Dub: Emilie Barlow) Sailor Jupiter/Makoto-Emi Shinohara (Dub: Susan Roman) Sailor Venus/Minako-Rika Fukami (Dub: Stephanie Morgenstern) ChibiUsa-Kae Araki (Dub: Tracey Hoyt) Tuxedo Mask/ Mamoru-Tohru Furuya (Dub: Toby Proctor) Dimande-Kaneto Shiozawa (Dub: Robert Bockstael) Saphir-Tsutomu Kashiwakura (Dub: Lyon Smith) King Endymion-Tohru Furuya (Dub: Vincent Corazza) Esmeraude-Mami Koyama (Dub: Kirsten Bishop) Everyone has arrived in Crystal Tokyo. ChibiUsa, who is very eager to see her mother, runs off into a fog. The senshi begin to run after her but are stopped by a man walking towards them. He introduces himself as King Endymion, Tuxedo Mask's future self. Tuxedo Mask recognizes his voice as the voice from his dreams. Endymion tells them that he knew that he and Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask were going to face great challenges, and he had to test their affection for each other to make sure it was strong enough.
He leads everyone into the Crystal Palace where he explains that Usagi will become Neo Queen Serenity in the future. He then reveals a sleeping ChibiUsa and tells Usagi and Mamoru that she is their daughter.
Endymion explains that in the 20th century, the earth was frozen, and Neo Queen Serenity had awoken everyone with the power of the Silver Crystal. All those who were evil, were given a chance to be healed. Those who didn't take that chance, were banished into space, and ended up on planet Nemesis. The Silver Crystal went missing and Nemesis used this as a chance to attack Crystal Tokyo. Neo Queen Serenity is attacked, but before she is hit, the guardian senshi encase her in quartz and she goes into a deep sleep.
Endymion is cut short by Dimande, who has entered the palace. He hits everyone with an energy blast and kidnaps Sailor Moon. Tuxedo Mask goes after her leaving the others behind. The senshi start to follow him, but Endymion explains that Tuxedo Mask needs to doe this on his own.
Usagi wakes up in a a strange bed, wearing clothes that look similar to Neo Queen Serenity's. She panics, then finds her compact, but is unable to transform. Dimande enters and explains that she cannot use her powers there. He opens his third eye and begins to hypnotize Usagi into being his one and only.
Fortunately, Tuxedo Mask arrives and attacks him. He manages to grab Usagi, and they escape on a glider back to the Crystal Palace. From below, Esmeraude watches them escape. Saphir calls her out on the fact that she let them because she's jealous of Dimande's love for the queen. Esmeraude laughs but obviously knows he's right. Usagi and Tuxedo Mask make it back and resolve to be together no matter what happens. The episode ends there with them embracing one another. I love this episode because I was finally able to figure out who ChibiUsa was. I always kind of figured she was Usagi and Mamoru's child, but it was nice to have this revealed in an episode
Here is a number that ChibiUsa sings in the Musical (one of my favorites):
Episode 41 (Season 1/ Sailor Moon Classic) "I Won't Run from Love Anymore! Ami and Mamoru's Showdown" (Dub: "Tuxedo Unmasked")
Original Air Date: January 23rd, 1993 (Dub: October 31st, 1995) Cast: Sailor Moon/Usagi-Kotono Mitsuishi (Dub: Terri Hawkes) Sailor Mercury/Ami-Aya Hisakawa (Dub: Karen Bernstein) Sailor Mars/Rei-Michie Tomizawa (Dub: Katie Griffin) Sailor Jupiter/Makoto-Emi Shinohara (Dub:Susan Roman) Sailor Venus/Minako-Rika Fukami (Dub: Stephanie Morgenstern) Tuxedo Mask/Endymion/Mamoru-Tohru Furuya (Dub: Toby Proctor) Queen Beryl-Keiko Han (Dub:Naz Edwards) Luna-Keiko Han (Dub: Jill Frappier) Artemis-Yasuhiro Takato (Dub: Ron Rubin) Ryo Urawa-Shinichirou Ohta (Dub: Eric Kimmel) Reika Nishimura-Rika Fukami (Dub:Wendy Lyon) Kunzite-Kazuyuki Sogabe (Dub: Dennnis Akayama) The episode begins with a scene from South Africa. Motoki's girlfriend, Reika is there on an archaeological project. As she is digging, Endymion appears. He pulls out a dark crystal and traps her inside of it. You then see that he has trapped 4 of the Rainbow Crystal carriers inside the crystal. He then says that he needs to gather 3 more.
That same day in Toko, Ryo Urawa is in town and he decides to give Ami a call. He tells her to turn on the news. When she does, she sees there is a report of the artist, Yumemi, has gone missing. Since Ryo kept some of his psychic powers, he could foresee that the Dark Kingdom was trying to gather the Rainbow Crystal carriers again. Ami asks where he is so that she and the other senshi can protect him. He refuses to tell her cause he doesn't want to put her in danger. He then hangs up. Ami is left on the other line, very worried about him. As Ryo is leaving the pay phone booth, he unknowingly passes Makoto, who realizes that it was him. In the Dark Kingdom, Kunzite is asking Queen Beryl why they are trying to gather the Rainbow Crystal carriers. Beryl explains that if they do so, they can summon the legendary shadow warrior and defeat the Sailor senshi. The girls are all gathered at the Hikawa Shrine, and Ami is informing them of Ryo's phone call. Makoto says that Ami should go after him. Ami explains that she has no idea where Ryo. Makoto tells her that she say him downtown. Ami and Makoto then leave the Shrine to look for him, while the other girls stay behind to protect Rei's grandfather. On the streets of Tokyo, Mamoru has found Ryo. When Ryo sees him, he already know who he is and knows that Mamoru is there to capture him. Ryo then screams out in the crowd. The people walking see Mamoru and crowd him, Ryo uses this to escape.
While looking for Ryo, Makoto tells Ami to cut the crap and admit that she has feeling for Ryo. Ami admits this but says that she doesn't have time for a boyfriend because of schoolwork and being a Sailor senshi. Makoto tells her that Sailor senshi can have fun too. They see Ryo across the street. Ami and Makoto follow him through the crowded streets into an alley. Unfortunately, Endymion has found them. Sailor Jupiter tells Mercury to take Ryo somewhere while she fights Endymion. Sailor Jupiter uses "Supreme Thunder" but he dodges it. They then use their hand to hand combat skills. Makoto sees Endymion about to punch her, but he stops and teleports away.
Sailor Jupiter runs into Usagi and Luna who had been looking for her and Sailor Mercury. They notice that the amusement park that is supposed to be closed, has all the lights on. They decide to head that direction.
Sailor Mercury and Ryo are hiding in the amusement park. Sailor Mercury asks why he wanted to come there. He admits that he's always wanted to come there with her on a date. He then tells her to escape and he will sacrifice himself to keep her safe. She tells him that she would miss him too much and it would hurt to have him gone.
Endymion then appears, and attempts to capture Ryo. Sailor Mercury uses "Shabon Spray" but Endymion still manages to trap Ryo in the dark crystal. Sailor Mercury demands that Endymion return Ryo. Endymion then turns into Tuxedo Mask to see if Sailor Mercury would still attack him. Mercury knows he's not their friend that they know and love, so she uses "Shabon Spray" again and fogs up his vision. She manages to steal the dark crystal and destroy it, setting Ryo and the other prisoners free.
Sailor Moon, Sailor Jupiter and Luna arrive. They are all impressed that Sailor Mercury managed to free the prisoners all on her own. Sailor Moon uses "Moon Healing Escalation" on Tuxedo Mask and returns him to normal. Their happiness is cut short when Mamoru disappears back to the Dark Kingdom. We see Queen Beryl beginning her brainwashing process on Mamoru again. She vows that this time, he will be hers.
The next day, Ami and Ryo go on a date at the amusement park. While they are riding the ferris wheel, the other girls are complaining about having to wait. Makoto encourages them to just be happy for Ami. They all agree and continue to watch the couple from afar
I love this episode cause.....well I pretty much have it memorized. When I was younger, my favorite senshi was Sailor Mercury (she still holds a very special place in my heart), so I researched some of her episodes. I came across this one, but I had never seen it. This was back in 2001 when the internet wasn't quite what it is now. I went to FYE and found a Sailor Moon VHS tape and saw that it had this episode on it. I was ecstatic! So since it was the only Sailor Moon in my possession, I watched the tape over and over again, especially this episode.
Here is "Drive Me Mercury" from the Sailor Moon musical:

Original Air Date: February 19th, 1994 (Dub: December 17th, 1998) Cast: Sailor Moon/Usagi-Kotono Mitsuishi (Dub: Terri Hawkes) Sailor Mercury/Ami-Aya Hisakawa (Dub: Karen Bernstein) Sailor Mars/Rei-Michie Tomizawa (Dub: Emilie Barlow) Sailor Jupiter/Makoto-Emi Shinohara (Dub: Susan Roman) Sailor Venus/Minako-Rika Fukami (Dub: Stephanie Morgenstern) Luna-Keiko Han (Dub: Jill Frappier) Artemis-Yasuhiro Takato (Dub: Ron Rubin) Mama Ikuko Tsukino-Sanae Takagi (Dub: Barbara Radecki) Wiseman-Eiji Maruyama (Dub: Tony Daniels) Black Lady-Kae Araki (Dub: Liz Wartenberg Brown) Dimande-Kaneto Shiozawa (Dub: Robert Bockstael) Saphir-Tsutomu Kashiwakura (Dub: Lyon Smith) Petz-Megumi Ogata (Dub: Norma Dell'Agnese) Koan-Wakana Yamazaki (Dub: Mary Long) Berthier-Yuri Amano (Dub: Katherine Trowell) Calaveras-Akiko Hiramatsu (Dub: Jennifer Griffiths) The girls are all over at Usagi's house. Usagi is distraught over the loss of Rini and tells them that she had no idea she would miss her so much. Mama Ikuko comes in and gives everyone tea but is shocked to see that she made tea for ChibiUsa... who she doesn't remember at all. Luna suspects that with ChibiUsa gone, her mind control over Usagi's family seems to have faded. On Nemesis, the Dark Moon Kingdom, Wiseman is raving to himself about how soon he will have enough power to free Death Phantom and that Dimande and all the others are just pawns in his great scheme. Saphir overhears this though and teleports to the control room of the Dark Crystal and removes the control chip.Wiseman notices that Saphir was watching and then proceeds to attack him. Saphir manages to escape into the past.
Wiseman tells Dimand and Black Lady that Saphir has betrayed them and tells them to destroy him. Dimande is hesitant as he is his brother but Black Lady volunteers and goes after Saphir. In the present, Saphir arrives but is badly injured and collapses in the park. Luckily Koan, Berthier, Calaveras and Petz see him and take him to Petz's apartment where they lived.
Petz tends to Saphir while the other three girls give them some privacy. Calaveras tells Koan and Berthier that Petz and Saphir used to be a couple. While asleep, Saphir remembers how he and Dimande came across a flower a long time ago and Dimande promised to take him to Earth were there were many more. As he wakes he is surprised to see Petz who tells him how wonderful Earth is. Saphir tells her how much she's changed and that he likes her company.
Eventually though he stands to leave and tell Dimande that Wiseman is not to be trusted before it's too late. Petz is sad and sees him off while the others watch from the other room. Berthier says that they should go help him, but Calaveras reminds her that they don't have their powers anymore and that they'd only get in his way. Koan then calls Usagi and tells her what's happening. As Saphir approaches the growing crystal that's beginning to tower over the surrounding buildings, Black Lady appears and is about to kill him but Sailor Moon and the senshi arrive and stop her. Sailor Venus attacks with "Crescent Beam" but Black Lady blocks it. Sailor Mercury uses "Shabon Spray" to give them some shelter. Sailor Moon, Venus, and Mercury are attacked by Black Lady and trapped. Saphir tells Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Mars who had been protecting him to go help their friends as he wants to talk to Dimande by himself. Sailor Jupiter and Mars try to free the others but they are also caught. Tuxedo Mask arrives in time and frees them all.
Saphir begins to tell Dimande the truth about Wiseman, but Wiseman appears and kills him. Wiseman then takes the control chip from his body and then teleports back to the future with Black Lady.
Sailor Moon, who had been kneeling with Tuxedo Mask over Saphir's body is surprised when Dimande walks over and takes Saphir's body with him as he leaves.
Petz, who had sensed Saphir's death, begins to cry and thinks of how happy he was while he was with her.
I love this episode because it brings back the 4 sisters who were once villains. Sailor Moon is now allies with these women since she changed them into normal humans. This is the one time I can remember the series showing us how a once villain now lives as a civilian. It's a story of redemption for the sisters.

Zirconia- Hisako Kyouda (Dub: Rowan Tichenor)
Usagi does not know Fish Eye's identing, but has invited him (who is a cross-dresser, so everyone thinks of him as a girl) into her room since she found him out in the rain. While they are talking, Fish Eye figures out that Usagi is Sailor Moon.
Usagi's mother, Ikuko calls upstairs and asks Usagi to run an errand. Usagi excuses herself and says she will return shortly so that her and Fish Eye can talk about Mamoru. (Fish Eye is interested in Mamoru just fyi)
When she leaves, Fish Eye sees ChibiUsa walking upstairs to her room. Curious, he follows her and over hears her talking to Pegasus through the Stallion Reve. He teleports back to Zirconia, Hawk's Eye, and Tiger's Eye and tells them that he's found the person who has Pegasus in their dreams.
Before revealing who the person is, he asks Zirconia if their spell would be made permanent and they would be able to have dreams like normal humans.
Zirconia reaches out his hand attacks Fish Eye. Tiger's Eye begs Zirconia to stop, so he does. He tells them that he's already figured out who Fish Eye was talking about; Usagi. Fish Eye says that he's got it wrong but Zirconia doesn't listen and sends Hawk's Eye to target Usagi.
Tiger's Eye and Fish Eye teleport to follow him.
Zirconia looks up at 4 mysterious girls (the Amazonness Quartet), and tells them that the Amazon Trio is no longer useful to the Dead Moon Circus. PallaPalla releases a blue ball that rolls and teleports after the trio.
Usagi and the girls are looking for Fish Eye (still not knowing who he really is) They decide to split up.
Usagi goes by herself and is approached by Hawk's Eye who hits on her for a moment then reveals his identity. He straps her to the usual platform and summons her dream mirror.
Before he can look into her dreams, Fish Eye and Tiger's Eye appear. Fish Eye tells him to stop cause he's got the wrong person and that she's Sailor Moon.
This makes Hawk's Eye more curious, and he decides to look into her dream mirror. He's stopped by the arrival of PallaPalla's Lemres.
The Lemres inspects the dream mirror and doesn't find Pegasus. He then attacks the trio saying that he is following Zirconia's orders.
He fires a spade energy blast that spins around and shatters Usagi's dream mirror. Usagi is then collapsed on the ground, unconscious.
Fish Eye remembers how Usagi had been so full of dreams and is heartbroken that she has now lost them. The Lemres fires at her but he is too dumbstruck to notice.
Hawk's Eye jumps in front of him and takes the attack right in the chest. He fights back with a fire attack, but it does nothing to the Lemres.
Fish Eye tells Tiger's Eye that they should revive Sailor Moon so she can defeat the Lemres. They use the magic energy orb that had transformed them into humans from animals to repair Usagi's dream mirror. Fish Eye teleports ChibiUsa to them.
Tiger's Eye attacks the Lemres with his whip while Fish Eye tells Usagi and ChibiUsa to transform. They transform as the magic orb shatters. Fish Eye and Tiger's Eye collapse and Usagi realizes that Fish Eye is the "girl" she had up in her room.
Super Sailor ChibiMoon summons Pegasus with "Twinkle Yell" then Sailor Moon attacks with "Moon Gorgeous Meditation"
Super Sailor Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus arrive as the trio revert back to being animals.
Pegasus uses his magic to transform them back into human and creates them their own dream mirrors. They awaken and realize they can now have real dreams. They then transform into balls of light and fly away with Pegasus who tells the senshi not to worry about them.
Pegasus leads the trio to a mysterious crystal forest and tells them that they can live there. He hopes that soon life will return to the forest.
I love this episode because it reminds me of how important it is to have dreams. Never stop dreaming, no matter what your circumstances are.
I couldn't find any good clips from this episode to post here. : ( But I did find the awesome song that the Amazon Trio sings in the SuperS musical:

Professor Tomoe-Akira Kamiya (Dub: Jeff Lumby)
Mistress 9-Yuko Minaguchi (Dub: Susan Aceron)
Luna-Keiko Han (Dub: Jill Frappier)
Artemis-Yasuhiro Takato (Dub:Ron Rubin)
Inside of Mistress 9, Hotaru fades away. Hotaru apologizes to ChibiUsa for everything she's done.
Sailor Uranus and Neptune attack Mistress 9 with "World Shaking" and "Deep Submerge" but Sailor Moon, who is still refusing to accept a sacrifice, steps in front of Mistress 9 and takes the attacks.
Mistress 9 extends her hair and cements Sailor Uranus and Neptune into a statue of herself.
Professor Tome comes into the room apologizing to Hotaru for everything he had done. Hotaru's soul begins to fight Mistress 9 again for control of her body, and it looks like Hotaru finally won.
Professor Tomoe goes to his daughter and asks what she needs. She tells him that she needs the grail so she can rid her body of Mistress 9.
Sailor Uranus and Neptune yell at Sailor Moon and tell her that it's a trap. Sailor Moon doesn't listen to them though. She believes Hotaru and summons the grail and gives it to Professor Tomoe. As soon as he give it to Hotaru, Mistress 9 takes control again and rises up in full power, making Hotaru fade away again. She tells Sailor Moon that the grail has the power of the strongest heart crystal using it and the only way to defeat it is with an even more powerful heart crystal.
Outside the building, Sailor Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus, fight to keep their forcefield up to protect the city, but all the Daimon are getting stronger and bigger.
Back inside, Mistress 9 tells Sailor Moon, Uranus, and Neptune that once her master Pharaoh 90 has the grail, they won't be able to stop him. She places the grail through the glass, into the dimension inside the globe. The grail is then destroyed.
Sailor Moon uses "Moon Spiral Heart Attack" into the dimension, but Pharaoh 90 just sends a blast back more powerful than her attack, and knocks Sailor Moon down.
Pharaoh 90's energy starts to go all over the place and attacks Mistress 9, but Sailor Moon stands in front to protect Hotaru and her father.
Professor Tomoe starts to talk to Hotaru, and finally her spirit makes it back. Mistress 9 is still fighting to keep control. Hotaru then thinks of her father and ChibiUsa and realizes that she has people she cares about. The symbol of Saturn appears on her forehead, then her body disappears.
Sailor Uranus shouts that it was Sailor Saturn, the soldier of death and destruction.
Pharaoh 90 starts to grow rapidly, and destroys the barrier held by the other senshi. The entire building then explodes in a black energy beam.
At Mamoru's house, the spirit of Sailor Saturn reveals herself to Mamoru and tells him that ChibiUsa will be alright. She return's ChibiUsa's heart crystal. Luna and Artemis rush in the room. Artemis explains that it was Hotaru as Sailor Saturn.
Back at what is left of Mugen Academy, Sailor Uranus yells at Sailor Moon and says that she hopes she's happy now that she has just brought on the end of the world.
Sailor Saturn appears in front of Sailor Moon and thanks her for protecting her body. Professor Tomoe whispers Hotaru's name along with Sailor Moon but Sailor Saturn explains that she is neither Mistress 9 or Hotaru but she is Sailor Saturn.
She tells Sailor Moon that if she had the grail, she may be able to help, but Saturn is the only senshi with the power strong enough to even near Pharaoh 90's core.
Sailor Moon asks her what will happen to her, and Saturn says that she is feared because she has the power to destroy an entire planet, but using her powers will kill her.
Sailor Saturn thanks Sailor Moon once more and leaps into the vortex to fight Pharaoh 90.
Sailor Moon starts to cry and keeps screaming out to transform into Super Sailor Moon with "Crisis Make Up!" but withg the grail, she can't.
Sailor Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, and Neptune lend her their power. Sailor Moon tries once more, successfully transforming into Super Sailor Moon. Using the power of her heart crystal, Super Sailor Moon enters the vortex.
In a few moments, Pharaoh 90 explodes and is destroyed. At the center of the explosion stands Super Sailor Moon holding a little baby Hotaru.
I love this episode because of this scene right here:
One of the most emotional scenes in the whole series.
A song performed by Sailor Saturn in the musical:

Makoto and Ami are also sick and Minako had come over to look after them. Unfortunately, she ended up destroying their rooms and making them feel worse.
When Minako arrives at Rei's, she makes her some soup, but when Rei tries it, it is way too spicy.
Minako then goes to change her sheets but spills the soup all over Rei. She tries to put some music on for Rei, but the stereo blares out heavy metal. Minako tries to turn the volume down by pressing all the buttons, causing the stereo to explode. Rei kicks her out.
At Usagi's house, Usagi's whole family, minus ChibiUsa, has the flu. ChibiUsa tries to help out with the laundry, but it doesn't go too well for her. Minako arrives and promises to help with the household duties. ChibiUsa becomes her assistant and they both start to make Usagi feel worse by messing up her house, breaking her bedroom window, etc..
Usagi asks Minako why she wants to help her so much. Minako responds by saying that Usagi always makes everyone smile, and no it's her turn to make Usagi smile. This cheers Usagi up.
Minako and ChibiUsa then leave to pick up medicine for the family.
When they arrive at the hospital, they can't find anyone on staff. ChibiUsa goes down a hallway and finds Esmeraude with her droid in human form talking about their plan to infect everyone in Tokyo with the flu. When they see ChibiUsa, they move to inject her but ChibiUsa begins to scream. Her screaming activates her Moon Beam which calls out to the Sailor senshi. They all get out of bed to come to her rescue.
Minako transforms into Sailor Venus and attacks the enemy with "Crescent Beam" and "Venus Love-Me Chain" but ends up trapped by needles and projectiles.
Fortunately for her and ChibiUsa, the Sailor senshi arrive. Sailor Mercury uses "Shabon Spray" which makes a fog to confuse the Droid. Sailor Mars attacks with "Burning Mandala" then tells Sailor Moon to finish it off.
Sailor Moon is still weak from the flu and collapses. Tuxedo Mask arrives and tells her that he believes in her. Hearing his words of encouragement, Sailor Moon rises and attacks with "Moon Princess Halation". This destroys the Droid and disintegrates the Dark Wedge.
Later that week, while everyone else recovers from the flu, Minako and Artemis catch it. Usagi offers the same quality services as Minako did, probably even worse than Minako's quality. Minako smiles and appreciates Usagi's help no matter how bad it is.
I love this episode because I identify with Minako's desire to help. I'm not always good at what I do, but I do it with the best intentions. A performance of "Romance" by Minako, Usagi and Ami:
Original Air Date: May 19th, 1994 (Dub: June 20th, 2000) Cast: Sailor Moon/Usagi-Kotono Mitsuishi (Dub:Linda Ballantyne) Sailor Mercury/Ami-Aya Hisakawa (Dub:Liza Balkan) Sailor Mars/Rei-Michie Tomizawa (Dub:Katie Griffin) Sailor Jupiter/Makoto-Emi Shinohara (Dub: Susan Roman) Sailor Venus/Minako-Rika Fukami (Dub: Emilie Barlow) Sailor Uranus/Haruka-Megumi Ogata (Dub: Sarah LaFleur) Sailor Neptune/Michiru-Masako Katsuki (Dub: Barbara Radecki) Kaolinite-Noriko Uemura (Dub: Kirsten Bishop) Scarf Daimon-Hiroko Emori Usagi and Makoto are out and about when Haruka hits them with her motorcycle. Haruka gets off her bike to help them. They are ok, but Makoto has hurt her hand. Haruka takes a scarf of hers and wraps it around Makoto's hand.
Makoto becomes infatuated with Haruka. Usagi gets concerned for her friend since Haruka is a girl and already in a close relationship with someone.
Later, Makoto wants to return the scarf to Haruka, but as she is walking, it gets blown away. She runs after it and sees that it lands underneath a car.
Watching from afar is Kaolinite, who believes Makoto has a pure heart crystal. Kaolinite then places a Daimon egg in the scarf.
As Makoto reaches for the scarf, it transforms into a Daimon monster.
Usagi and Ami, who were running after Makoto, see what is happening and transform into Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury. As the monster attacks Makoto, Sailor Mercury uses "shine aqua illusion" to freeze the monster's tentacles and free her.Kaolinite then tells the Daimon to retreat. Sailor Uranus and Neptune decide to follow Makoto since she is a target.
That night, Haruka and Michiru offer Makoto a ride. Makoto of course goes with them since she is still admiring Haruka.
They end up stopping to enjoy the view at the bay. Makoto calls the other girls on the communicator to let them know that she is fine, but is attacked by the Daimon shortly after. Haruka and Michiru pretend to try and stop it but are knocked into a nearby bush. They transform and watch to see what happens.
Makoto cannot transform and has her heart crystal taken. Uranus and Neptune fight to take it, but they see that it isn't the one they want.
Sailor Moon, Mercury, Mars, and Venus get there and rescue Makoto so she can transform. Sailor Jupiter attacks the Daimon to weaken it. Sailor Moon then uses "Moon Spiral Heart Attack" and destroys the Daimon.
Sailor Jupiter sees Uranus and Neptune and begins to attack them, since they just allowed her heart crystal to be taken. Uranus punches her in the stomach, then she and Neptune run. Neptune notices that Jupiter hurt Uranus' hand. Uranus admits that Jupiter is tough.
Later, Makoto finds Haruka to make sure she is ok. She sees that Haruka's hand is injured, then wraps the scarf around it. Makoto and Usagi then go shopping to buy Makoto her own scarf.
This episode is in my top favorites because it is about my other favorite senshi, Sailor Jupiter! I also like how it focuses on some of the confusion that all girls go through every day. Makoto is just another girl trying to figure out her life, even with her super powers.
Here is a cute song sang by PGSM Makoto and Usagi:
