The Plot Holes of Sailormoon Eternal


I bet most of you are wondering why I'd make something like this. Well, the reason is that I'm a nitpicker, even when it comes to my own stuff ^_^ Plus, what if some person who doesn't know a whole bunch about the Japanese version reads my fic, and assumes that all of it is true to the series? I try to be as accurate as possible, but even I've made some mistakes. Some of them are purposeful, some of them were made out of ignorance. Here are the plot holes that I've caught so far, and I'll add if they were intentional or if I just did it because I didn't know:

1) Haruka and Michiru are going to Juuban High School. This happens in the manga, yes, but not in the anime, and that's what Eternal is based on. However, this was more or less intentional; I like to mix the anime and the manga ^_~

2) In Sailor Stars, Galaxia broke Eternal Sailormoon's Moon Power Tier, Sailorpluto's Garnet Rod, Sailorsaturn's Silence Glaive (I think . . . it didn't look like it'd gotten broken), and Sailoruranus' Space Sword (again, I think; to me, it just looked like it'd gotten thrown out of her hands). In Eternal, they're all back. I did that because I didn't know, but also because it would be impossible to have Pluto and Saturn around without their weapons, and they just happen to be my favorites among the Sailor Team. ^_^

3) Fighter Venus has Sailor V's crescent compact. I tried to cover this up later on by saying that, since Venus was no longer using it, it went to Fighter Venus so he could make use of it. Still, that was an afterthought, so it still counts as a plot hole.

4) Hekate's name is not spelled correctly; the correct spelling of that Goddess' name is Hecate. The reason I spell it that way is because I like that spelling better. If I have offended any Wiccans or Pagans or any other such people, gomen nasai ^_^ (This was pointed out to me by my friend Dark Messiah/Sailorstaruranus, whom is Pagan.)

5) This isn't really a plot hole, but I feel I should point this out anyway: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto's Eternal attacks are all taken from the manga. Uranus and Neptune's attacks are their attacks when they turn Star, and Pluto's attack is her talisman attack. I told a friend of mine about this, and she was surprised; she thought the attacks were all original. So, I figured I should add that. (Everyone else's attacks are original, though, plus Pluto's second Eternal attack, Chaotic Time Stream.) I did this purposely, of course.

6) Speaking of stuff taken from the manga, the Sailor Senshi's Eternal forms are more or less identical to their Sailor Star forms from the manga. I also did this purposely, mainly because . . . um . . . I forget why, other than I was too lazy to create something more original. I think it was because I just like to recycle stuff from the manga because I think it's too big of a shame that it was left out of the anime ^.^;;

7) In episode three, Saturn doesn't show up. However, Zoisite and Chibiusa take news of Haruka's capture straight to Michiru's house-- and Michiru, Haruka, Setsuna, and Hotaru all live together in the same house. I originally thought that Hotaru was still living with Prof. Tomoe at the end of Stars, and that Haruka and Michiru lived in an apartment together at the time; however, I recently saw the first eight episodes of Stars subtitled, and upon re-reading episode three, I realized that this wasn't so. My bad . . . -_-

That's all I can pick out for now. Ja~ne! (*waves goodbye*)
