Line 98:
** The first opening has a sequence where Queen Beryl clenches her fist, and then is shown standing in front of the Dark Kingdom. The second opening has a similar sequence with Princess Serenity and the Silver Millennium.
* [[Villain Decay]]: The monsters of the day became generally goofier as the show progressed and the [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]] of each villain faction became less and less menacing too.
** [[Starter Villain]] Jadeite started off a competent threat. He had powerful minions, [[Curb Stomp Battle|curb-stomped]] Sailor Moon during their first meeting, and actually managed to succeed in getting away with human energy in one scheme, earning Queen Beryl's compliments. But right after that last event, things began to go downhill for Jadeite. [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain|Very downhill.]] Once he got [[Hoist by His Own Petard]] for the last time, Queen Beryl [[You Have Failed Me...|"decommissioned" him for good.]] The rest of the [[Quirky Miniboss Squad|Shittenou]] avoided the trope, with Nephrite and Kunzite never ceasing to be threats (though Kunzite slips when he gets his own arc), and Zoisite never being much of one to begin with
** The Ayakashi Sisters in the manga are murderous maniacs, while in the anime they were merely misled and are granted a chance to live free in modern day Tokyo. The manga also had them capable of killing the Sailor Senshi with ease, something they struggled with in the anime.
** Queen Nehellenia was still evil in the anime, but only because she was misled, and she was eventually redeemed and granted a second chance at life in ''Stars''. In the manga, she was evil incarnate (a spawn of Chaos), responsible for the death of the Moon Kingdom ''and'' the current calamity, and was destroyed by Usagi and Mamoru.
