Men can cry

Men can be sensitive

Men can ask for help

Men can break free from society’s labels

I feel so vindicated right now. After all those fights with Seiya fans and Seiusa shippers over whose better and guess what it turns out that not only have Mamoru and Usagi have been dating for years after Seiya well died but she and Mamoru are happily married so HA!

The best ship dynamic is actually just. "I love you and it terrifies me. I'm terrified how much I need you and how much I want you to need me. I'm terrified I'm no good for you and I'm going to hurt you and ruin you and I'm terrified of how I feel when you're around me but I can't bear to push you away completely because I'm terrified to be without you so now we're stuck in limbo and that's terrifying too. I'm terrified that if I lost you now it'd destroy me and I'm terrified that it's too late to do anything about it. I love you. And it's terrifying."

First of all, WOOHOO a tweet about Sailor Moon got almost 200k likes!

Secondly, YES this is an aspect of Sailor Moon that I've always loved but hesitated to voice just because I don't want to be mistaken for a creep, lol. Both the anime and manga/Crystal reboot utilize nudity not only in an artistic sense, but as a way to represent a character being stripped down to their truest self, the essence of their very soul.

In fact, in the manga, characters in dreams, visions, or in the space between life and death (among other situations) are shown to be entirely naked or are depicted with clothes that seamlessly blend into their bodies.

And of course, the finale of the final arc has Usagi saving the day not through a last-minute power-up form, but by stripping down to her purest, truest self:

Sailor Moon has so many great examples of non-sexual artistic nudity and I hate when people are too immature to see what Naoko Takeuchi was going for.

I also love how, at the same time, Naoko doesn't portray sexuality/sex as something dirty and impure. I've said this before, but in the manga Usagi is heavily implied to be sexually active with Mamoru (in fact, it's outright stated that she's already pregnant with Chibiusa on their wedding day), but in no way does that diminish her role as the purest being in the universe and the star that shines the brightest.

I will keep screaming this into the void forever: Naoko Takeuchi and Sailor Moon really were ahead of their time, and that's why the series still resonates with so many people today.

Baby Lady's New Outfit

Neo-Queen Serenity: Mamo-chan! What are you doing with Small Lady?

King Endymion: Just putting Small Lady in the outfit I bought. TA-DA!

Neo-Queen Serenity: AHHHHHH! I-It's the...the...the...

King Endymion: It looks just like the outfit wore when we met. I honestly can't believe there's still being made.

Neo-Queen Serenity: Damnit I must've missed a store.

King Endymion: What was that, Usako?

Neo-Queen Serenity: Nothing, Mamo-chan but I gotta go call the girls. *on phone with Rei* Come over quckly! And bring fire! Lots and lots of fire!

Rei: It's the green jacket, isn't it?

Neo-Queen Serenity: It's the green jacket!
