Hand-painted fanmade reproduction cel from episode 22 of the possession scene in the 1992 anime, made by @yamino (She's currently taking commissions)!

This reproduction also has a special feature! When she steals enough Energy, then...

...her eyes glow in the dark!

So yeah that's pretty much one of the coolest things I own XD
I didn't want to buy any official original 90s anime cels, for fear of damaging them with my shoddy house conditions; I feel like the original cels belong in a museum! But this reproduction one is fun, and it's made for me 💜 Thanks again @yamino!
Additional ramblings on this scene from the anime- I always liked to imagine, even though she's being possessed, that this smile was, in part, Naru herself smiling that wickedly, even if she doesn't fully remember the events afterwards. That thought was a big inspiration in my past life story ideas about Osakaite!

The Shitennou in the 90s anime are fantastic because each one of them is a specialist of some sort and it makes their evil operations distinct from one another, keeping things fresh.
Tumblr media
Jadeite - The Illusionist
When it comes to Jadeite, deception is the name of the game. For his energy harvesting schemes he creates fake businesses, has his youma pose as humans, and he himself dons all sorts of disguises: radio DJ, fitness instructor, stage manager, academic professor, shrine assistant, amusement park security guard, and captain of a cruise ship. He will also utilize illusions to intimidate like when he showed a vision of Tokyo in flames, or to trick his enemies like when he had illusionary cops force the Sailor Senshi to transform so that he could learn their true identities. Unfortunately, Jadeite's pride in his capabilities means that he was stubbornly unwilling to adapt and take a more direct approach, leading to his downfall.
Tumblr media
Nephrite - The Manipulator
Nephrite is a manipulator in all senses of the word. He manipulates people, objects, events and even the stars themselves in order to achieve his villainous goals. Using the single disguise of Masato Sanjouin, he gets close to victims, then will usually give them an item he curses to amplify their innate negative energy until it matches the energy of the star they were born under, creating a special youma in the process. He eventually singles out a key victim in Naru Osaka, who has a crush on his Sanjouin persona, and manipulates her in plans to destroy the Sailor Senshi or find the Imperium Silver Crystal, and uses a special tool of his own creation known as the Dark Star Crystal. However, his cold heart ends up warmed by Naru's innocence and devotion to love, leading him to his tragic demise defending her.
Tumblr media
Zoisite - The Cheat
While Zoisite had aid from Kunzite in strategizing, let's not sell him short when it comes to the moment of truth - Zoisite frequently prevails because he is willing to do absolutely anything to win. No method is too dirty, cheap or cowardly for him to embrace. He'll threaten someone's loved one to coerce them into doing what he wants, he'll sucker-punch his enemies out of nowhere after having previously retreated from them, he'll physically bully whoever is smaller and weaker than him then blind them to make an escape if they prove more formidable than expected, he'll pretend to surrender and then strike, he'll sic a monster on his enemy while taking his prize and running, and when all else fails a good old-fashioned stabbing in the back will suffice. Zoisite got far on dishonesty, but success went to his head and he overreached.
Tumblr media
Kunzite - The Trap Master
At first Kunzite was a skilled tactician, but then after Zoisite died the writers made him stupider at crafting strategies without even seeming to realize it. What he remained very consistent on, however, was his brilliant and deadly traps. He engineered a fake hostage situation leading to the Sailor Senshi getting caught in a dark, ever-compressing forcefield, he cut the power in Tokyo to obstruct the Sailor Senshi's efforts and cause Mamoru and Usagi to get stuck in an elevator, he had a great idea for a DNA scanning device to catch Sailor Moon with that his youma sadly screwed up, he held a princess seminar where the target was the overall failures save for in a frisbee-tossing challenge since it reflects Sailor Moon's tiara throwing ability, he had a giant snowy chasm created for his enemies to fall right into and be unable to climb out of, he rigged an ice skating rink temperature control device to blast an obscene amount of icy coldness down on everyone and nearly freeze them to death, he played on Sailor Venus' friendship with another person to almost obtain vital information from her, he turned the Sailor Senshi's own attempt at a trap back on them because he saw right through it, and were it not for the Silver Crystal's interference would have trapped them all in time-space limbo. Of all the Shitennou, he came closest to victory on the most occasions. Additionally, he was a powerful warrior, with his power and pride sadly being his undoing.

Because Jadeite and Nephrite were the Shitennou that were most proactive in disguising themselves as humans, it was mandatory for them to keep up with current pop culture trends so they could integrate themselves into earthling society better. Jadeite is all but a walking thesaurus on memes, and technically so is Nephrite, but he views such things as proof of how foolish and shallow humans inherently are. As for the other two guys, Zoisite *thinks* he knows pop culture references only to make himself into a laughingstock every time he uses one, and Kunzite just can't comprehend any of this stuff at all nor does he want to.

@smlgbtqweek Day 4: Twist
Anatomy is hard. I bet Kunzite’s anatomy is hard right now
Seriously, practice makes perfect. When I first saw the daily themes for this year’s LGBTQ week, I knew that I had to draw out this idea.
For their weekly Dark Kingdom Game Night, it was Zoisite’s turn to choose a game — and so he picked Twister. Nephrite was the first to be disqualified, followed by Jadeite.
After several minutes of both Kunzite and Zoisite staying in the game, it became apparent to everyone that Zoisite had his own special motivations for choosing Twister… 😉
