Plot
Usagi meets up with Umino who claims that him and Naru are becoming more distant. Usagi meets with Naru, who says the same. Usagi hears about a contest where couples test the strength of their love and the winners get to light a giant heart together. Usagi finds the competition sold out, but both Umino and Naru had been hiding tickets for one another the whole time, explaining why they were so distant. The competition begins with Michiru and Haruka also in the contest. Umino keeps making embarrassing mistakes, while Haruka and Michiru gain impressive results. Eventually, Haruka and Michiru drop out, and Umino gives a heart felt speech, winning the competition. As the couple go to light the heart, it transforms into a Daimon, and extracts Umino's Pure Heart. The senshi try to stop it, but are caught in a trick by the Daimon and are rescued by Sailor Uranus and Neptune. Sailor Moon destroys the Daimon and Neptune and Uranus find that Umino's heart isn't a talisman and return it to him.
