In my honest and very sadly unpopular opinion, the Black Moon manga arc aged like milk and eggs, and I feel its flaws, compared to the anime version, far outweigh its virtues, like what is the point of giving the four Inners their Star Power ups, if three of them are going to be captured for half of the arc and the fourth basically does nothing (all four didn't even do anything of significance in that manga arc)? Plus Saphir goes from saying Usagi was blameless but then tried to kill her, what?
The manga version did give
and
better roles though, and
's backstory wasn't too bad.
