Changes

Changes from the Original Anime

• Sailor Moon, as Neo Queen Serenity, and Chibiusa in her own Princess dress both trapped into the full strength and holy abilities of their respective Silver Crystals and annihilated Death Phantom and the Malefic Black Crystal once and for all.
• Usagi/Serena had received the mystical Cosmic Heart Compact in the second episode of the third season, when she and Tuxedo Mask had combined their strong love. In a vision, she had become Princess Serenity and Tuxedo Mask became Prince Endymion. The mythical Spiral Heart Moon Rod had then appeared between them. The broken Crystal Star then became the Cosmic Heart Compact.
• Sailor Moon had never actually met her future self, Neo Queen Serenity, face-to-face.
• Chibiusa had returned home to the future and did not appear again until later on in the third season in full Sailor Senshi attire as Sailor Chibi Moon in order to have proper training as a full-fledged Sailor Soldier.
• Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus were never given much stronger, planet powers that enabled them to transform under their own power. They continued to transform into their secondary evolved Sailor forms using their respective Star Power Sticks until they evolved into Super Sailor Soldiers later on in the fourth season.

First Appearances

• Double Moon Princess Halation (only time)
• The Cosmic Heart Compact
• The Spiral Heart Moon Rod

Trivia

• This episode officially concludes the Black Moon saga; the second story arc of the manga and the final episode of the online series.
• After the end of the episode Toei Animation ends with 'À bientôt' message which means see you soon. Toei plans announcements. So it is possible that we could be seeing a SMC adaption of Infinity, Dreams and Stars sometime in the future. The official twitter told us to look at the Sailor Moon official 20th Anniversary Project website for more details within the coming days and months.
