I really loved all the pretty transformations in this volume, the new magical powers and crystal things, and the way that Usagi finds strength and bravery from the encouragement of her friends and her love for Tuxedo Mask. I love how the Sailors all band together, willing to give their lives for each other, fighting against evil, and generally being awesome!

Chibi-Usa was always a weird character to me. She just never seemed to fit into the story, in my mind. Somehow I don't remember her being introduced this early in the story, but here she is, being all mysterious and bratty.
