Sailor Moon Stuff

Whose Stuff? Chibi Usa

From? Anime: Sailor Moon S  

Season Episode 18: Series Episode 107 - 「芸術は愛の爆発!ちびうさの初恋」 or “Art is an Explosion of Love! Chibi-Usa’s First Love”

What? Bunny slippers

Gimme!    I received these from my husband for Christmas a few years ago!  They are MUCH cuter in real life and very comfortable. 

Pretty sure they were from this site. 

Whose Stuff? Chibi Usa

Season Episode 18: Series Episode 107 - 「芸術は愛の爆発!ちびうさの初恋」 or “Art is an Explosion of Love! Chibi-Usa’s First Love”

What? Stolen apple pie!

Chibi Usa bakes a lattice top apple pie for a friend she made at sculpting class….but Usagi takes it and eats it with the girls.  It seemed delicious!

Gimme!    I am a terrible cook and am too lazy to make a good pie crust but even my slap dash apple pie kicks ass.  

You need…

Apples of course, with sugars, flour, spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), at bit of flour and a double pre-made pie crust.   You essentially mix it all up and pour it into the crust, plop the lattice work on top and bake until its delicious.  So easy! I’ll make it this weekend with a pair of pink oven mitts, like Usagi. 

Whose stuff? Sailor Chibi Moon/ Chibi-Usa

From? Anime: Sailor Moon Super S (all) 

What? Chibi Moon Compact 

Of all of the Sailor Moon’s transformation brooches, I always think this one is the cutest out of its simplicity (today at least. I usually change my mind).  

Gimme!  Ugh….

So, I feel like the English speaking fandom generally dislikes Chibi-Usa and Super S is always ranked as the least-liked season.  Older fans who are seeking out nostalgia items do not seem to want to identify with a little kid. But I really like Super S (maybe not a favorite, but still like it!) and finding merchandise for Chibi Usa has always been pretty hard. But!

You can always get the official Bandai toy, found on ebay for about $100

Or the venerable Kuma Crafts, though its a hefty $45

And I’m done with Sailor Moon R. Time to move backwards to Season 1!

Season Episode 41: Series Episode 87 -「愛と未来を信じて!うさぎの決心」 or “Believe in Love and the Future! Usagi’s Determination”

Whose stuff?  Chibi Usa

From? Anime: Sailor Moon R

Season Episode 40: Series Episode 86 -「サフィール絶命!ワイズマンの罠」 or “Saphir Dies! Wiseman’s Trap”

What?   Chibi Usa’s pink rabbit cup.

GIMME!  A rabbit mug, rather, for my morning coffee.

When I first posted this photo, I thought this beautiful Heart shaped tea set was the best. But, for something more practical, I’d prefer a mug.

Like this from Rakuten ~ $10.71 

Whose stuff?  Black Lady  

From? Anime: Sailor Moon R

Season Episode 39: Series Episode 85 -「暗黒の女王ブラックレディの誕生」 or “The Birth of Black Lady, The Queen of Darkness”

What?  Transformation ribbons, long and loose.  

Wise Man essentially traps Chibi-Usa by making her focus on (misplaced) anger towards the people around her.  This rage turns into black smokey ribbons that cover her, transforming her into Black Lady.  It is an interesting comparison to Sailor Moon’s transformation ribbons: Chibi Usa’s anger and hatred leads to ribbons that change her, literally warping her body.  But, Sailor Moon’s love and desire to help leads to ribbons that “armor” and power-up her body. 

Just like the cry “make-up,” ribbons continue the cosmetic metaphor for how girls “change” themselves (for better or worse).   

GIMME!  So if you need a little bit of transformation…　

Wear black or pink ribbons, long and sophisticated like the models for designer Alexis Mabille.

Or wear ribboned jewelry, like a Ligia Dias necklace or a Chanel ribbon bracelet or just make one yourself for 1/10000 of the price.  

Or, loop it in your hair like a TV heroine (villainess??).

Or just as a forget me not ring perhaps?
