Admittedly the villain’s motivation is clichéd but also calls to mind a well-known fairy tale that the right audience will enjoy. Sailor Moon also gets a bit more depth to her with another flashback to her past life, including a scene with her mother and we learn more about the villain, Queen Nehelenia.

Plus his power upgrades combine with Sailor Moon’s, making his role a lot more essential to the big victory and a great addition to the whole teamwork dynamic that the manga thankfully celebrates, whereas sometimes the anime was lacking in this respect. We learn more of Mamoru’s past life, including the beautiful scenery of Elysion and the importance of his Prince role. Where it does come into its own, however, is in the expansion of the characters’ backgrounds and mythology building. They do tick some mandatory boxes along the way for example Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask coming together for a tender moment when everything looks hopeless, all the Sailor Senshi receiving a power upgrade, and the enemy laughing annoyingly across most panels. The Dream Arc finale however does a few things slightly differently to make it stand out from the other battles. The final battle of the Super/Infinity arc had the entire planet in danger, a huge enemy to defeat, and it was the first battle to involve all the Sailor Senshi working together, so of course any finale afterwards is going to lack in comparison. The big finale to the Dead Moon isn’t as epic as the previous final battle, but it was never going to be. Luckily we don’t have that here, we have the big battle, and it’ll be a good few months of rest for the senshi before the next book is out, beginning the final arc of Sailor Moon. In the previous arc ending the book was padded with the beginning chapters of the next arc, creating a disorientating experience where the characters went from proclaiming ‘peace has returned!’ to suddenly fearing the new enemy on the next page.
Sailor Moon Volume 10 is the complete finale to the Dream Arc (or in anime terms SuperS arc) which works better for the book overall. However with Usagi and Mamoru made ill by the Dead Moon’s power, the world of Elysion in danger and Helios growing weaker, can they defeat their latest foe? They went to the shrine where Helios revealed the story of Elysion, which was of the same nature as in the manga.Įlysion's name is taken from the Elysion (also spelled "Elysium") of Greek mythology, which was the part of the Underworld in which the souls of the heroic and virtuous would rest in a peaceful paradise.With the whole Sailor Senshi team reunited once more, it’s time to finally take on the Dead Moon Circus. In the second part of Sailor Moon Eternal, Pegasus saved Usagi and Mamoru from an attack by Zirconia and brought them to Elysion. They went to the shrine where Helios revealed the story of Elysion. In Act 46 of the manga, Pegasus saved Usagi and Mamoru from an attack by Zirconia and brought them to Elysion. Helios explained who he was and apologized for not being able to protect the Golden Crystal. When he arrived, he was transformed into Prince Endymion and entered the castle. Mamoru was taken to Elysion in episode 165, when the Sailor Senshi were fighting with Queen Nehellenia. In that episode, Pegasus took Chibiusa (temporarily grown up because of a spell by PallaPalla) to fly over the devastated kingdom in order to reawaken her true dream. In the anime, Elysion was first revealed to Chibiusa in her dream in episode 158.
