In the 3rd season of SMC, Moon achieves her "super" form with the Holy Grail/Moon Chalice by saying "Moon Crisis Make-Up." Yet in the manga, she says "Crisis Make-Up." This error wasn't fixed in the English dub either. #SailorMoon #SailorMoonTrivia
In the '90s anime, Eudial & Tin Nyanko were the only recurring villains who used guns. Eudial's Capture Gun wasn't inherently deadly, but having a Pure Heart removed could result in death. Tin Nyanko's cat paw gun was designed to wound or kill. #SailorMoon #SailorMoonTrivia

The wing embellishments on the Kaleidomoon Scope were present as Sailor Moon powered down from Eternal to Super in episode 168. In the past, the wings only appeared on the Kaleidomoon Scope whenever Pegasus lent Sailor Moon his power. #sailormoon #kaleidomoonscope #eternaltiare
