Line 16:
* [[Body to Jewel]]: No, not the [[Anatomy of the Soul|heart crystals,]] the Silver Crystal is made partly of Usagi's tears. Also, the Pink Moon Crystal appears this way.
* [[Character Development]]: Much more of it than in the anime for the main characters (much less for minor characters and villains, as the result of the manga being much more concise).
* [[Chaos Entity]]: Chaos is an abstract being that takes the form of different concrete villains to spread discord and destruction. It technically exists within the Cauldron of Stars, and destroying the Cauldron would destroy Chaos. {{spoiler| Sailor Cosmos is supposed to be locked in an eternal battle with Chaos. Only she burned out and fled to the past to find another solution with Sailor Moon's help, posing as her little sister Chibi-Chibi.}}. Sailor Moon is urged to destroy the Cauldron, except it would also destroy new life. {{spoiler|Instead, she opts to purify it, sacrificing her physical form and reviving everyone in Crystal Tokyo. Chaos is still out there but significantly more depowered.}}
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: Sailor Tin Nyanko goes undercover as a foreign exchange student... from ''Libya'' of all places. She's pasty white, and doesn't even remotely act or dress like she's from a country with a conservative Muslim majority. Her name is also ''Japanese''. Whether Takeuchi or Tin Nyanko failed to do the research is anyone's guess. She dies in her first appearance anyway, so there's not much time to contemplate it.
* [[Dropped a Bridge on Him]]: In ''Stars'', Princess Kakyuu has quite a bit of page time and character development, as she spends all of her time encouraging and helping Sailor Moon throughout the bad times. Then suddenly, during a fierce battle in the sailor crystal garden, {{spoiler|she decides it'd be awesome to tell everyone she's a Sailor Senshi, transforms into Sailor Kakyuu, then proceeds to get stabbed through the chest by a blunt, rounded staff. The bad guys quickly harvest her Sailor Crystal, and Sailor Moon completely snaps.}}
