How powerful does Sailor Moon get?

Post by OgreBattle »

I've read the wiki entries about Queen Serenity form being able to alter reality or something, but specific descriptions or highlights of specific pages and episodes would be handy.

Do the sailor senshi also have world shattering power?

Sailor Moon resurrects every man, woman, and child on planet Earth.

Sailor Saturn's final attack destroys an entire galaxy.

And Sailor Uranus is a dykey lesbian in 1990's children's programming.

What's a good image of Sailor Moon/Neo Queen Serenity ressurecting earth?

I couldn't tell you a manga page, but it's part of the background that somewhere between the 90s when everything is happening and the far future the characters come from, everyone dies, but then Neo Queen Serenity globally resurrects everyone. As far as the anime goes, that's just sort of mentioned as a thing, rather than shown. Although the Ginzishou crystal does indeed have the power to do "whatever", with the "it might kill the user" side-effect.

Sailor Moon herself can also generally harness the power of love to do the typical things of saving lives/worlds, bringing people back from the dead, restoring people who's hearts/souls have been pulled out and all that. But that's pretty basic.

Sailor Pluto can freeze time (at the cost of her life), but when she's actually in her Temporal abode, she can view and fuck with time in varying ways.

Most of the other senshi (aside from aforementioned Saturn) just have varying degrees of explosive energy blasts, and the few times they've hit things that you could point at in the real world (as opposed to hitting monsters) the effect has been roughly that of an RPG.

Oh, and each senshi has died and come back at least once.

Edit: and remember, Prince Endymion (aka Tuxedo Kamen) sacrificed himself for Princess Serenityall of mankind, being killed by demons on the moon. Which means Jesus is Tuxedo Kamen.

Well, she did take on the Galaxy class senshi head to head. The single strongest senshi there was up to that point. Who had become corrupted by kayoz and started taking other senshi lives and their power for herself, making her even stronger still.
Welcome, to IronHell.

Peculiar properties of spacetime ensure that the perception of the magnitude of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and cultural location. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.

At the end of the Manga, Sailor Moon is killed and her soul is disolved in the Galaxy Cauldron. She comes back from this under her own power. As in, she just pulls herself back together and resurrects herself after her body and her soul have both been dissolved into their basic components.

She also resurrects everyone in the entire galaxy after Galaxia destroys it.

She also makes everyone on Earth immortal, or close to it. In the Manga, she's elected Queen of Earth at 19, makes everyone immortal, ends all war, disease, poverty and crime. and rules for over 1000 years. With the only hiccup being an exodus of some crazy people who were morally opposed to living forever and were led by a serial killer who was morally opposed to not being allowed to murder people for fun.

The problem there is in trying to quantify how powerful that is. "Resurrected everyone in the world" and "self-resurrected after being reduced to nothing" are things we can talk about. Destroying an entire planet or galaxy is something we can talk about. But "can beat another fictional character in a fight" only works when the other fictional character is measurable in some way.

Could Sailor Moon beat Saitama?
In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

No. Light reflects from Saitama's shiny bald head making him immune to all forms of light magic.

In the original and in some parts of the world, yeah. But the American TV dube makes Uranus and Neptune cousins. And clips not-quite-enough, which makes it weirder than 'oh, these girls like girls'

Kind of?
The last story arc is just weird. Pretty much everyone just ups and dies abruptly (with strong implications that either Mars or Venus was dying of cancer or something already anyway, so whatever to death), and then people gibber incoherently, everyone dies and bam they're back.

The manga ending actually leaves all sorts of detail out, with very little explanation as to what the fuck is going on. Its a mishmash of weirdly drawn effects, then bam she's all princessy and pregnant, with a shitload of fan theories as to what goes on between that point and whatever point in the future that the Spore comes back in time.

Which range from only a fragment on the population survives in a bubble on a frozen earth, to she fucking mind controls purifies everyone so they aren't capable of evil anymore (except the Nemesis/Black Moon bunch who escape to the past).

As a genre convention, a magical girl protagonist's jewelry always comes with some degree of reality warping, starting with Minky Momo (completely harmless magical girl from the 80s. The day she "adopted" her Earth parents, suddenly they and anyone relevant to them had memories of Momo, she had a legal paper trail, the house had an extra room that "had always been there", and no one around them wondered why the neighbours' daughter had a flying camper and talking pets).

Most magical girls have Power of Plot, and like all power of plot, this only comes into play when dramatically appropriate.
