Hi guys I thought I would go through a list of some Sailor Moon misconceptions propagated by many websites that are just wrong.
1. Mamoru is the Senshi of both the Earth and the Sun. This is simply false, it was stated in the series that Senshi can only be Senshi of one celestial object and there can not be two or more Senshi of the same celestial object. It was stated time and time again that Tuxedo Mask is Earth's Senshi but he is not the Senshi of the Sun. Now he does have some solar associations but they are associations only. Some use the fact that his crystal is the Golden Crystal and his zodiac sign is Leo but that evidence is faulty. First of all his Sailor Crystal is the Golden Crystal because of the fact that gold is the opposite of silver aka Sailor Moon's crystal. As for Leo again Leo is a sign that goes well with Cancer Sailor Moon's sign. Plus Earth in traditional astrology was never given a zodiac sign to rule over. However to take this further Sailor Star Fighter is also a Leo and Sailor Galaxia wears golden armor and is called the Golden Queen. By this same logic are we to assume Seiya is also the Senshi of the Sun based on the fact that she is a Leo and even is associated with the Sun in the mythological background of the Three Lights or that Galaxia is the Sun's Senshi because she wears gold and is more associated with gold then Tuxedo Mask? Of course not besides even with the other Senshi their Sailor Crystals do not match up to the metals associated with their planets. IE Sailor Mercury's crystal is blue and isn't the color of the element Mercury. Sailor Saturn's crystal is violet and not the greyish, black or brown color of lead etc. Sailor Chibi Moon gains the Pink Moon Crystal which is not a color associated with the Moon. By this wacked out logic are we to assume that Chibi Moon is no longer the Senshi of the Moon because of the fact that her crystal is no longer silver of course not. Some have used the comment of Queen Nehellenia in the manga when she refers to Tuxedo Mask as Prince of Earth protected by the Sun. However again this is not proof as the Sun was said to have a guardian and a parental role towards the entire solar system. Queen Serenity even refers to the Sun Father Sun. So by this theory if Mamoru is the Senshi of the Sun is he also Queen Serenity's father? Of course not this is metaphorical language. Further more senshi are not senshi of colors or metals and when it comes to the Sun anyway it is associated with many colors such as Gold, Red, Yellow, Orange and Bronze just to name a few. There as of yet is no canon information on who the Sun's Senshi is although there are good candidates like say Hina Kusaka and Helios.
2. The Light of Hope in the 90s show is Sailor Cosmos. This is false The Light of Hope was Sailor Galaxia's starseed and Sailor Cosmos is the future form of Sailor Moon so they are not the same. Besides it would contradict the series canon. Since we know that star seeds are needed for a person to be a senshi this would mean that the starseed of the Senshi of the Galaxy has the star seed of the Senshi of the Cosmos. Plus Naoko Takeuchi stated that Sailor Cosmos did not appear in the 90s anime. When Chibi Chibi took that form reminiscent of Cosmos it was just a red herring.
3. Parallel Sailor Moon is canon. As much as I loved Parallel Sailor Moon it is not canon. First of all it is known that the future for all of the Senshi is Crystal Tokyo. Also the fact that in the Sailor Moon anime and manga it is stated that Chibiusa is Usagi and Mamoru's only child.
So tell me what are some common misconceptions that you have seen on the net or in real life that are nonsense?
