“Eternal”
In Act 49 - Dream 11, Minako raised her hand and yelled “Venus Crystal Power!” to give power to Eternal Sailor Moon’s Eternal Tiare. Afterwards, she transformed into a form similar to Eternal Sailor Moon’s, referred to as “Eternal Sailor Venus” by fans, along with the other Sailor Senshi.

Anime
This transformation was very similar to Sailor Venus' previous one with very few differences, the main one being that a uniforming of roses appeared behind her at the end of the transformation. Other differences include the brighter colors of the animation, and at the end, Sailor Venus brushed her hair out of her face as she moved into her final pose, which she did this for Sailor V's Transformation but she didn't do it for the other two.
In this transformation, Minako held up the Crystal Change Rod and her fingernails turned bright orange as an orange crystal with a Venus symbol and a chain of many leaves and few roses connects to it. She then held the Rod in the air as long banners of golden stars emitted from it and swirled around her body, eventually forming a spiral. The stars sank to the ground, but then rushed upwards again, completely covering Minako's body. Super Sailor Venus then finished with her final pose.
Trivia
