Line 54:
** Season 4 finale provides one on epic scale. [[Big Bad|Nehellenia]] gloats that the Golden Crystal that could defeat her was powerless because humans stopped having good dreams... Cue ''all'' of that season's [[Victim of the Week|Victims Of The Week]], targeted specifically because each of them had a good dream, recharging it.
* [[Costume Test Montage]]: Minako, in the opening of the S movie.
* [[Crane Game Gag]]:
** Crane Game Joe has one as his [[Establishing Character Moment]]. He uses telekinesis to win toys from crane arcade games, so as to bypass the established rigging. The DiC dub tries to handwave that he donates the toys to charity, but in the original anime and Viz dub, he keeps it for himself.
** During episode 109 of ''S'' where Minako gets her heart stolen, she's playing a crane game while talking to Usagi about making herself worthy. Usagi, flashing back to when Minako and the Senshi died in season one as well as everyone getting their hearts stolen, starts banging her against the machine, begging her not to risk her life. As a result, Minako wins ''twenty'' toys, which she proceeds to give to everyone. When her heart gets removed and she runs off with it, the Senshi toss the toys at the daimon to distract it.
* [[Crash Into Hello]]: Subverted in one episode where Rei goes [[Wrong Genre Savvy]] and tries to deliberately engineer this to meet Mamoru. She ends up falling flat on her face and he '''steps on her head'''.
** It still works.
