Line 68:
* [[The Maiden Name Debate]]: In the fourth chapter, and as part of Saeko-san giving her daughter Ami permission to marry Ryou, she insists that he become a [[wikipedia:mukoyōshi|mukoyōshi]], taking the Mizuno name instead of Ami taking the Urawa family name (which would have caused the Mizuno family to end with Saeko).
* [[Male Pack Mule]]: A downplayed example appears in chapter three:
{{quote|One nice thing about a magitech society like {{spoiler|Midchilda}}'s was that I didn't need to hide my powers. The flipside of that, of course, was that I ended up carrying everybody's purchases in a forcefield wheeled basket...}}
* [[Man on Fire (trope)|Man on Fire]]: Zoicite, when most of the Senshi attack him at the Star Light Tower. It doesn't last long.
* {{spoiler|[[Mauve Shirt]]}}: {{spoiler|With the number of deadly enemies the Senshi go up against, you weren't really expecting all of the [[Original Character]]s and [[OC Stand-In]]s to survive, were you?}}
Line 99:
* [[Shout-Out]]:
** When they were sent to another dimension, Robu-san downloaded ''[[Shadowjack Watches Sailor Moon]]'' and Ryou downloaded a copy of what existed of ''[[Dungeon Keeper Ami]]'' in 2017, so that Ami and Makoto could read them.
** Sword-wielding [[Original Character]]s Ichiro and Sakura were named after the characters in ''[[Sakura Taisen]]''.
** The canon trope-naming [[In the Name of the Moon]] speech occasionally includes a sentence about how a relevant famous or trailblazing person might forgive the malefactor, but Sailor Moon will not. ''[[Isekai by Moonlight]]'' follows this pattern on occasion. In order:
*** During the figure-skating lesson trap: "Kristi Yamaguchi might forgive you, but I will not!" Kristi Yamaguchi won an Olympic gold medal for figure skating in 1992.
*** At the grocery store where the Dark Moon's "Dark Fruit" was being sold: "Shizuo Tsuji may forgive you, but I will not!" Shizuo Tsuji, head of the Ecole Technique Hotelier Tsuji and author of ''Japanese Cookery: a simple art'', passed away on March 9, 1993.
*** During the chess match between Berthier and Mercury: "Naoko Takemoto might forgive you, but I will not!" Naoko Takemoto won the Japanese Women's Chess Championship every year between 1979 and 1994, and placed sixth in the 1987 Women's World Chess Championships.
* [[Something Completely Different]]: The [[Whole-Episode Flashback]] story arc that starts when Robu-san, Makoto, Ami, and Ryou get sent to [[Another Dimension]] by the Black Moon's Stick and {{spoiler|[[crossover]] with ''[[Lyrical Nanoha]]''}}. Most of the Senshi appear only in the chapter's first, short framing scene, and [[Absentee Actor|Mamoru, Naru, Ichigo, and Mizuno-sensei do not appear at all]].
* [[Standard Female Grab Area]]: No, Usagi, you don't get to leave and immediately come back as Sailor Moon, thus blowing your cover.
Line 108 ⟶ 112:
* [[Super Empowering]]: In the [[backstory]] for Robu-san, and {{spoiler|in-story for Osaka Naru}}.
* [[Super Family Team]]: Mizuno Saeko appears to be doing her best to put one together. As of the end of the fourth chapter, the family includes her daughter Ami, Ami's future husband Ryou, Ami's adopted sister {{spoiler|Minako}}, and honourary members Robu-san and Makoto. All but the last two either are or have agreed to be listed in the Mizuno family register with the official paperwork filed at city hall.
* [[Super Weight]]: If you aren't familiar with ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', then this list contains spoilers for "Chapter S". If you're a ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' fan, the spoilers should be obvious.
** Fragile Weight (-1): nobody
** Mundane Weight (0): Ichigo, Saeko, Shario-chan
** Iron Weight (1): Artemis, Luna
** Abnormal Weight (2): Ka'o, Naru, Ryou, Princess Lady / Sailor Chibimoon
** Super Weight (3): Haruka / Sailor Uranus, Hotaru / Sailor Saturn, Mamoru / Tuxedo Kamen, Michiru / Sailor Neptune, Minako / Sailor Venus, Setsuna / Sailor Pluto, Hayate-chan, Ichiro, Meia, Sakura
** Hyper Weight (4): Ami / Sailor Mercury, Makoto / Sailor Jupiter, Robu-san
** World Weight (5): Usagi / Sailor Moon
** Cosmic Weight (6): nobody
** Author Weight (7): nobody
* [[The Talk]]: Implied to take place offscreen, with Naru in the adult's role and Usagi in the child's.
{{quote|"Naru-chan," Bunny-chan asked, "what are they talking about?"
Line 147 ⟶ 161:
* {{spoiler|[[You Did Everything You Could]]}}: Minako's opinion during the first talk she had with Robu-san after {{spoiler|he was forced to kill a classmate}}.
* [[You Can't Fight Fate]]:
** Played Straight during the first story arc. No matter how hard RubuRobu-san tries to change things during the first chapter, including suggesting a power-up to Makoto, the Sailor Senshi still end up outclassed at D-Point.
** Played With during the Black Moon arc. Some characters survive who died in canon, others who survived in canon die, and Naru ends up without a boyfriend but knowing who the Senshi are... but Chibiusa still becomes Dark Lady.
* [["You?" Squared]]: Makoto and Petz during the Lucky Charms House incident, revealing that Petz had seen Makoto transform to Sailor Jupiter the previous time they met.
