Sailor moon venus I am the Pretty Guardian who fights for Love and for Beauty! I am Sailor Venus! In the Name of Venus, I'll punish you with the power of love!
~ Sailor Venus's stock introduction

Summary

Minako Aino (愛野 美奈子, Aino Minako) is the present-day incarnation of Sailor Venus (セーラーヴィーナス, Sērā Vīnasu) and the civilian identity of Sailor V (セーラーV, Sērā Bui). She is one of the five original Inner Sailor Guardian of the Solar System and was the first of the Inner Sailor Guardians to awaken as she assumed the guise of Sailor V to uncover the activities of the Dark Kingdom. After the other Sailor Guardians awaken, Minako presents herself as a decoy princess to keep the Dark Kingdom's forces away from Usagi until she regained her past life memories. Her attacks are based around love and beauty, as well as light and metal. Minako resumes her duties as Sailor Venus soon after. This is the original depiction of the character created by Naoko Takeuchi.

Standard Equipment:

  • Minako's Transformation Pen 「変身へんしんペン」: A pen that was used by Minako Aino that was given to her by Artemis in the first act in order to transform into Sailor V. The crescent moon on the cap of the pen is a speaker which Minako would use to communicate with "Boss". The decoration on top of the cap could extend into an antenna. The pen also writes what is true, a power Minako often took advantage of to pass tests; Artemis did not approve.
    In Sailor Moon, Minako used the pen in order to transform into Sailor Venus, due to her awakening in the last act of Codename: Sailor V. It was also shown to have a connection with the Sailor V game at the Game Center Crown, where it reacted if someone was playing the game well. The pen was destroyed when the Inner Senshi gave up their pens (Minako explained that also meant giving up their lives) in order to reawaken Princess Serenity and Prince Endymion, after Sailor Moon killed herself and Endymion and the Silver Crystal grew over their bodies. It was replaced by her Star Power Stick.
  • Minako's Compact: A crescent moon-shaped compact given to Minako Aino by Artemis.
    She used it to transform into her standard Sailor form, as Sailor Venus, and for her unusually strong light-based attacks as well as disguising herself with Crescent Moon Power, Transform.
    Some of the compact's powers are Crescent Beam, Venus Power, Love Crescent Shower, and Crescent Boomerang. It is charged by moonlight, and has to be recharged often in order to work.
  • Transformation Pen 「変身へんしんペン」: This item also allows her to transform into her regular, standard Sailor form. She sacrificed her pen, in order to awaken Sailor Moon, who was within Metalia at the time. The pen were eventually replaced by the much stronger and more powerful Star Power Stick.
  • Star Power Stick: The third magical transformation items Minako used. They were given to her by Luna along with new communicators after she destroyed her own transformation pen in order to help Sailor Moon defeat Metalia. After Sailor Venus received power upgrades from Neo-Queen Serenity, she no longer used the stick to transform.
  • Venus Crystal: The Sailor Crystal that Minako Aino used to transform into Super Sailor Venus and Eternal Sailor Venus. It was given to her by Artemis.
  • Communicator: Special devices used by the Sailor Guardians to keep in touch with each other.
    The Guardians wear wristwatch-type communication devices which allow them to speak with each other. Two sets appeared throughout the series. The first set appeared in Act 03, Volume 01, and came directly from the Sailor V game. The second set were given to them after Chibiusa's appearance.

  • Tiara: Part of any Sailor Senshi's fuku, except Sailor Cosmos, Sailor Galaxia, and Eternal Sailor Moon. When looking at the tiara from a distance it appears to have a rather simple smooth golden design with a circular red gem at it's centre. On closer inspection though one can see that it in fact has subtle details engraved in its surface and the gem itself is encased in a golden frame.
  • Minako's Compact: A crescent moon-shaped compact given to Minako Aino by Artemis.
    She used it to transform into her standard Sailor form, as Sailor Venus, and for her unusually strong light-based attacks as well as disguising herself with Crescent Moon Power, Transform.
    Some of the compact's powers are Crescent Beam, Venus Power, Love Crescent Shower, and Crescent Boomerang. It is charged by moonlight, and has to be recharged often in order to work.
  • Sailor Venus' Chain: Also known as the Venus Chain, is an item that's made of golden links adorned with rubies. Sailor Venus wore around her waist as a belt and used it for several of her attacks; when performing Venus Wink Chain Sword, the links retained their rounded shape, but would morph into hearts when she performed Venus Love-Me Chain. The chain was later replaced by a different one, the Love Whip, when she evolved into her Super Sailor Venus form.
  • Sword of the Silver Crystal 「まぼろし銀水晶ぎんすいしょうけん」/「聖剣せいけん」: Also called the Holy Sword, was a magical sword found by the Sailor Guardians on the moon in Act 10. It was stuck into the ground and Sailor Venus was the only one who could free it. It is from the Silver Millennium and its purpose was to protect Princess Serenity. After Prince Endymion was killed by Queen Beryl, Princess Serenity committed suicide by stabbing herself with the sword out of grief. To avenge their deaths, Sailor Venus took the sword and killed Queen Beryl.
  • Whip of Love 「あいのムチ」: An item used by Sailor Venus to perform the attack Venus Love and Beauty Shock. It is an upgraded version of her previous chain, which she used to perform her Venus Love Me Chain attack. While the previous chain had links shaped like hearts, the Love Whip features roses. While being controlled by Sailor Galaxia's bracelets, the Whip sports galaxy-shaped links, and is used to perform the attack Venus Love and Galactica Shock.
  • Galactica Bracelets: Bracelets worn when Sailor Venus was reconstructed to be a loyal subject to Sailor Galaxia. Can be used to fire blasts of energy at an enemy. Destroying them entirely and allowing the user to take their Sailor Crystal from them. They have purple and green gems on them.

  • V-chan Sword 「Vちゃんがたな」: An item only used in Codename: Sailor V. Sailor V used this to perform the attack V-chan Katana Strike which destroyed Wan-Wan..
  • Venus Mike: An item in Codename: Sailor V. Sailor V used it to perform the Venus Ten Billion Volt Rock N' Rouge attack. In essence, it would create sound waves.
  • Incense burner
  • Guns
  • Swords
  • Armor

  • V Mask: The mask Sailor Venus wore as Sailor V. As Sailor V, she always wore this mask and hardly ever took it off. Unlike Sailor Moon's Mask, her mask couldn't see people in danger and was only there to protect her identity. She also wore this mask in her Sailor Venus form, but only a handful of times, mostly to establish that V and Venus were the same people. After Minako debuted as Sailor Venus, she removed the mask, and it hasn't been seen outside of a flashback since.
  • Tiara: Part of any Sailor Senshi's fuku, except Sailor Cosmos, Sailor Galaxia, and Eternal Sailor Moon. When looking at the tiara from a distance it appears to have a rather simple smooth golden design with a circular red gem at it's centre. On closer inspection though one can see that it in fact has subtle details engraved in its surface and the gem itself is encased in a golden frame.

Optional Equipment:
  • Ofuda 「御札おふだ」: Charms, wards, or scriptures in Japanese culture that are said to bear good luck, and are usually sold in Shinto shrines or temples. They are used by Rei Hino, or when she was Sailor Mars, to freeze her enemies with Akuryo Taisan. It was used once by Minako Aino/Sailor Venus in a manga side story. The kanji written on the ofuda ("Akuryo Taisan") can be translated as "Evil Spirit, Disperse." In the re-released English translation of the manga, it is translated as "Evil Spirit, be exorcized". Ofudas were first seen in Act 3 of the manga series.

Intelligence: Average (Shown to be an academic underachiever. Displays a more serious attitude in her Sailor identity, but does not display anything noteworthy otherwise), Varies with the compact (Can resolve school tests and turn into virtually anyone with different skills and occupational experience) | Above Average (Displays notable combative skill despite not having fought for a year. Stated by Artemis to have good reflexes, adaptability, sensitivity, and judgement skills[9]. Can perceive the weaknesses of her opponents (only with their physical attributes and their power sources), as well as create weapons to effectively perform counterattacks. As Sailor V, she has exhibited creativity in the usage of her powers and abilities, bringing this mindset over into her Sailor Venus identity) | Unknown

Standard Tactics: Minako is pretty pragmatic and is not much different from being bloodlusted. Besides transforming into Sailor V/Venus, she would abuse the transformation compact for any occasion. | Sailor V is kind of a brawler, and employs a number of ranged purification attacks that vaporizes her opponents. | Similar to previous but with less cartoon physics and immersion as Sailor Venus now uses love-based powers in addition to forms of light and metal transformation. Her attacks are based around love, with the exception of Crescent Beam and Crescent Beam Shower. | Is bloodlusted under Sailor Galaxia | Unknown

Weaknesses: Laziness, doesn't take fights (outside of Serenity) or much of what she does seriously, dislikes math and English class. Sailor Crystals contains the power of their planets, and will destroy the bearer's physical body if removed. Needs to maintain concentration to use her magic | None notable normally, under the control of Sailor Galaxia, she loses her life if her Bracelets are destroyed | Unknown

  • Her compact must be recharged with the light of the moon often in order to work.

Feats:

Show/Hide

Physical

Minako has suprisingly good physical showings.

Disguise Pen

While she most of the time uses it for female transformations, she can transform into males. She has:
Minako has also used the Disguise Pen to gain the abilities and credentials of whatever professions she turns to:
However the Disguise Pen can also be used for actual COMBAT. Namely by transforming into professions of war:
However we haven't begun to tap into the true potential of the Disguise Pen of all things.
  • Minako uses the Disguise Pen to transform into Okappi, as in a specific person.[Codename: Sailor V (Vol. 1)/Shinsouban, Vol.7/Page 28]
Yes...Minako can actually change into specific people she wants...
  • However that's not the end...Minako can also change into historical figures at will. Here Minako uses the Disguise Pen to Change into greatest female pirate of the China Sea, Ching Shih.[Codename: Sailor V (Vol. 2)/Shinsouba, Vol.15/Pages 249-250]
Minako can change into any real person...including ones she's never met, both present and past. Minako can use the Disguise Pen to turn into a FICTIONAL CHARACTER!

Raw Pragmaticism

Sometimse it feels like In-Character Minako is not much different form Bloodlusted Minako. Here are some examples of Minako's In-Character Extremely Pragmatic thinking:

Joint-Ability Resistance

From the Star Seed comes the Energy, Body, Mind, and Soul Manipulation. Even in their civilian forms, the Senshi's Special Star Seeds, the Sailor Crystal offers them protection from Energy Manipulation, Matter Manipulation, Mental Manipulation, and Soul Manipulation:

Joint-Planet Power Channeling

Power Guardians

As Sailor Senshi, the Inners have Power Guardians whose purpose is to protect their powers from being messed with, they can also help to return them to their proper state of mind if they ever fall to mental manipulation, or even unlock their true powers for them.

Henshin

  • At the end of the series the Senshi regenerated from Usagi using the Lambda Power and apparently ABSORBED the Lambda Power.[41]
  • This is evident by the fact that they are tanking, without any difficult, being within the Galaxy Cauldron, the place where nothing, even Star Seeds/Concepts are supposed to remain and they are surviving inside it without effort...in civilian form.[PSSM (Vol. 12)/Shinsouban, Act 60/Page 258]
    This is supported by what Guardian Cosmos says...
    So what does it mean to have absorbed the Lambda Power. Well basically it means you have control over everything in the universe. All powers are aspects of the Lambda Power which means at least the power of every Sailor Senshi, and potentially the powers of every character in the franchise save Chaos it's spawn. So...that's quite impressive.

    Physical

    Sailor V is actually kind of a brawler, specifically she likes kicking.

    Ranged: The Simple Crescent Beam

    Sailor V's Signature Attack is her Crescent Beam, a Beam of Light, which she uses in conjunction with her compact that reveals the truth form of things:

    Ranged: Beam, Boomerang, and Shower

    By the way, does it seem like Minako can just make up attacks at will? Hold that thought.

    Ranged Part 3: One-Time Usages

    Sailor V has a number of ranged attacks that were only used once. Here we get to see perhaps how truly powerful even a Partially Awoken Sailor Senshi is.
    When Sulphuric Smoke touch a non-magical being, it doesn't create an opportunity for a funny fart joke. It creates acidic burns and tissue damage. It suffocates as well and if gets to your facial area is essentially instant death...this attack IRL would be a horrific thing to use...Sailor V essentially has extremely disturbing Matter Manipulation Hax. If she was bloodlusted...she could use this attack to cause a horrifically painful and very difficult to stop death. Outside of having matter manipulation resistance or just being fast enough to avoid it...this is not something that can really be dealt with...Most disturbingly, she only created a quick burst of it, she could theoretically maintain this power if she wanted too...
    • Creating attacks on the fly is actually canonically something Sailor V can do! She was fighting a Mosquito-Based Foe and charged an incense burner with her energy to create an attack specifically for dealing with mosquitos.[Codename: Sailor V (Vol. 2)/Shinsouban, Vol.13/Page 77]
      ...So....yes....Sailor Senshi, even Partially Awoken ones, can literally make up new attacks.
    • Sailor V has the Venus Mic.[Codename: Sailor V (Vol. 2)/Shinsouban, Vol.14/Page 211]
    • With the Venus Mic, Sailor V can launch the Ten Billion Volt Rock N Rogue…which may in fact be an attack with 10,000,000,000 Volts going by the name.[Codename: Sailor V (Vol. 2), Vol.14/Page 212]
      A Lightning Bolt, depending on who you ask, is somewhere from millions to a billion bolts. So this attack has at least 10x more voltage then a lightning bolt. It's not something you can "just resist" with enough durability. Lightning, is actually VERY loud, as in loud enough to cause permanent ear damage and completely destroy your ability to hear if it goes off NEAR you. If Lightning hits you it's likely that it was cause at least partial, and potentially complete paralysis as well as causing violent seizures. And this attack has at least 10x more voltage. Much like the Sulphuric Smoke Attack, this is a disturbing attack in the hands of a bloodlusted enemy.
    • And now for the final attack Sailor V added to her arsenal before Fully Awakening. The Love Megaton Shower. It's one shower has it utterly cutting a building in half and just keep keep going upwards beyond the panel. If the name is to be believed it has the energy of a megaton, which puts it on the level of nuclear warheads.[Codename: Sailor V (Vol. 2)/Shinsouban, Vol.16/Page 267]

    Effectiveness

    Joint

    The Partially Awoken Form are abitrary forms created by memory sealing...really even the generic average Sailor Solider in the Universe should at least more on the level of Fully Awoken Sailor Soldiers.

    Joint Power

    Indeed Luna says that the even the power of the First-Arc Silver Crystal has enough power to easily destroy a star, although is often mistranslated as planet due to the similarity in Japanese between the words “planet” and “star”. The image is also that of a Supernova.[PSSM (Vol. 1)/Kanzenban, Act 6]
    Yet Sailor Planet Power Attack destroyed Kunzite's Barrier which could resist even this.

    Joint Other

    Their Mental defenses have also gone up from Continent Level to Full On Planetary.

  • Neo-Queen Serenity bestows new Planet Power unto the Inner Senshi so they could fight alongside Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi-Moon “with ease.[54]
  • Sailor Venus used the Venus Love-Me Chain to purify a stadium of people.[PSSM (Vol. 6)/Shinsouban, Act 29/Page 174]
  • Sailor Venus’s Wink Chain Sword was roughly even with Mimete’s Charm Buster.[PSSM (Vol. 6)/Shinsouban, Act 29/Page 175]
  • Bear in mind, Kaorinite the Grand Magus of the Death-Busters and the Witches V (Cyprine, Telulu, Viluy, Eudial and Mimete) are all above basic daimon who are more powerful then they seem.

    Planet Power Joint Inner Senshi

    Also, speedwise the Inner Senshi>Chibi-Moon>Weaver Stars. These Weavers Star regularly fly a few dozen lightyears every year, seemingly in a very short amount of time, which is suggestive of speed thousands of times lightspeed.

    In the fourth arc, the Senshi attained their super forms on their own.

    Joint Super Inner Senshi

    • At the end of the fourth arc, the Senshi attain their Eternal Forms. They then begin their struggles against the Galaxia's Sailor Animamates. The Sailor Animamates are capable of threatening fifth arc Eternal Sailor Moon which suggests they are signifigantly above the Base Silver Crystal in terms of power. The Base Silver Crystal created all energy in the Universe.[PSSM (Vol. 1)/Shinsouban, Act 3/Page 85]
      Official Kazenshuu Translation: I have been informed that the "Legendary Silver Crystal" is a stone that is the source of all energy.
    When the Eternal Inner Senshi battle the Animamates, this means they are pretty insane in terms of stats.

  • When turned evil, Eternal Sailor Venus's "Venus Love and Galactica Shock" equaled Eternal Sailor Moon in power.[PSSM (Vol. 12)/Shinsouban, Act 58/Page 155]
  • She was also able to effortlessly nullify her attack,[PSSM (Vol. 12)/Shinsouban, Act 58/Page 159] the same one which destroyed Queen Nehellenia's dark mirror world.

  • Notable Attacks/Techniques:

    Dexterity: Minako is an athletic girl, and is a star volleyball player. She performed her attacks without difficulty, so she can be said to be fairly skilled, perhaps a bit more so than her other Inner Senshi companions, as she has more experience than all of them. However, she does not exceed the Outers.

    Disguise Henshin: Variant of the Henshin Power that Minako accesses using her compact that allows her to disguise herself as whatever she wishes. Most often this is used to turn into sexy forms to distract her opponent or give them nosebleeds however she can turn into combat forms such a Shogun with a Sword, a Policewoman with a pistol, a Lady Commando with a Machine Gun, etc. She can also turn into specific people, including people she's never met or historical figures and can even transform into fictional characters.
    • Crescent Moon Power, Transform 「三日月みかずきパワー・トランスフォーム」: The command used by Minako Aino in Codename: Sailor V to disguise herself in various forms. Minako would hold up her compact and shout the phrase and the disguise she wants. Then, she would morph in a beam of light.
    Henshin: Minako can use the Power of her Sailor Crystal to Transform into Sailor V, and later into Sailor Venus and then her stronger forms. The Henshin Power can also be used to teleport through dimensions or reverse enemy-magic.
    • Moon Power, Transform: The command Minako Aino uses in order to transform into Sailor V. After her awakening as Sailor Venus, she uses the transformation phrase, Venus Power, Make Up, along with the same pen in the manga only as well.
    • Venus Power, Make Up: The first transformation Minako Aino uses to turn into Sailor Venus with the help of her Transformation Pen in the Sailor Moon series. It debuted in Act 10 of the manga. In the manga, the phrase was used in Act 10 in order to transform and travel to the moon along with the other Sailor Senshi. The phrase was used for transformation in Act 11, but was used along with her pen from her Sailor V days. Minako holds up her transformation pen in the air and in an instant she becomes Sailor Venus.
    • Venus Star Power, Make Up: The second phrase Minako Aino uses which allows her to transform into her third, strengthened evolution of her standard Sailor form as Sailor Venus. Minako raises her pen in the air and transforms instantly into Sailor Venus.
    • Venus Planet Power, Make Up: The third transformation phrase by Minako Aino to transform into Sailor Venus. It is the third evolution of her standard Sailor form and is much stronger than herself previous standard form. In the manga, Minako would just raise her hand and yell “Venus Planet Power, Make Up!” and instantly transform into Sailor Venus without using any transformation items.
    • Venus Crystal Power, Make Up: The phrase Minako Aino uses to transform into Super Sailor Venus in the Dream Arc and into Eternal Sailor Venus in the Stars arc of the manga. In Act 44 - Dream 6, Minako used this phrase with the Venus Crystal to transform into Super Sailor Venus. She first used the phrase shortly after Artemis gave her the crystal. In Act 49 - Dream 11, Minako raised her hand and yelled “Venus Crystal Power!” to give power to Eternal Sailor Moon’s Eternal Tiare. Afterward, she transformed into a form similar to Eternal Sailor Moon’s, referred to as “Eternal Sailor Venus” by fans, along with the other Sailor Senshi. In Act 50 - Stars 1, Minako used the phrase along with the Inner Senshi to transform into Eternal Sailor Venus to fight Sailor Iron Mouse. In Act 52, Minako used the phrase one last time with Rei before her Sailor Crystal and Mars’ was taken by Galaxia.

    At the end of the series, Minako absorbed the Lambda Power and could exist in "Perfectly Heavenly Form" within the Galaxy Cauldron which normally erases existence.

    • Crescent Beam: A light-based attack used by Sailor V in Codename: Sailor V (which is canon) except in Sailor Moon Crystal. Minako as Sailor V uses her compact to reveal her enemy's true form and then send a flash of light from the mirror toward her enemy. Sometimes she would wave the compact above her head before performing the move. This attack was powerful enough to destroy powerful Dark Agency Agents, it even destroyed Luuga within her own pocket dimension. The mirror in the compact is said to reflect the moonlight at an enemy in order to defeat them. Crescent Beam first appeared in the first chapter of the Codename: Sailor V manga, "The Birth of Sailor V!". After she caught Narcissus, a member of the Dark Agency, hypnotizing a girl named Haneda as part of her efforts to turn young girls into his slaves, Minako Aino transformed into Sailor V. After engaging in a fight, Sailor V was instructed by Artemis to use her compact to reveal his true form and destroy him. Sailor V cast Crescent Beam with her compact, destroying Narcissus and returning the hypnotized young girls to normal. Crescent Beam was never used in the main Sailor Moon manga.
      • Crescent Super Beam: A energy-based attack used by Sailor V in chapter 8 of Codename: Sailor V. The attack could best be described as a more powerful and updated version of Crescent Beam, requiring more charge. Sailor V used this attack to weaken Vivian before finishing her off with Venus Power, Love Crescent Shower.
      • Crescent Slender Beam: A light-based attack used by Sailor V in Codename: Sailor V. Its technique seemed identical to Crescent Beam, but the word "slender" was added because it seemed appropriate while Sailor V was in combat with the weighty monster, DeVleene. It is a focused form of Crescent Beam, lowering the AoE but increasing the damage.
    • Crescent Boomerang: A disc-based attack used by Sailor V where she throws her Compact at her enemy. In Codename: Sailor V, she used this attack to destroy Twin Dark. This attack was used to cause Fluorite's head to explode.
    • Venus Power, Love Crescent Shower 「ヴィーナス・パワーあいのクレッセント・シャワー」: A love-based attack used by Sailor V in Codename: Sailor V. After defeating her enemy, she would open her compact, raising it above her head, calls down a mystical rain and would purify the area. This attack could also defeat the enemy as seen when she used it against Dark Shizuka-hime. Sailor Venus. This mystical rain purifies negative energy, cure people of brainwashing or curses, restores energy, detoxify the air, and melt away evil-doers.
    • Sailor V Chop: A physical attack used by Sailor V against Cyber Girl Warrior Lurga in the sixth Codename: Sailor V chapter. She used it to destroy the game base that the Dark Agency was using to collect energy from humans along with the video game "Fighting Girl Lurga". The attack consisted of Sailor V performing a descending karate chop, and accidentally made a building-sized explosion when first performed.
      • V-chan-style Kneading Sailor V Chop 「VちゃんしきもみだしセーラーV・チョップ」: A physical attack performed in Codename: Sailor V, a pressure point attack that briefly stuns her opponent. It is essentially a stronger version of Sailor V Chop. Sailor V used this attack to stop DeVleene's Rainbow Chocolate Attack.
    • Rolling Screw Sailor V Punch: A physical attack only performed in Codename: Sailor V and was only used once in the series. Sailor V would send out a crushing blow in this attack and had used this attack against Hibiscusy.

    • Venus Sulphur Smoke: A energy-based/smoke-based attack only performed in Codename: Sailor V. Sailor V would release a cloud of sulphuric fumes from the planet that approximates the atmosphere of Venus, and incapacitate villains with its smell. Artemis later suspects that the fumes are actually Minako's flatulence from eating too many sweet potatoes. It smells like a fart.
    • Venus Iron Muscle Punch: A physical attack performed in Codename: Sailor V and was only used once in the series. Sailor V used this attack to destroy Nyan-Nyan. Sailor V charges her opponent and hits them. The attack is likely stronger than her other melee attacks.

Sailor V used this attack to defeat Chuu-Chuu.
    • Venus Ten Billion Volt Rock N' Rouge 「ヴィーナス百億ひゃくおくポイントロックン・ルージュ」: A music-based attack that uses sound waves used in chapter 14 of Codename: Sailor V. Sailor V performs the attack using the Microphone of Venus to create an electrical wave with a voltage of 10,000,000,000, which would send sound waves toward the enemy that would harm them. She defeated Karaoke Warrior: Mike Makii with this attack.

    • Crescent Boomerang: A disc-based attack used by Sailor V where she throws her Compact at her enemy. It was also used in Chibiusa's Picture Diary Chapter 1 - Beware of the Transfer Student.

    Joint Attacks

    • Double Sailor Kick: A physical attack used in the first Chibiusa's Picture Diary short story. It is a tandem attack between Sailor V and Sailor Moon. It is very similar to Sailor Moon Kick and Sailor V Kick but performed at the same time. They use it to save Chibiusa from a vampire, Lyrica's mother. This short story takes place near the beginning of the Black Moon arc, long before Chibiusa can transform herself but she follows up their attack with Garlic Attack.

    • Crescent Boomerang: A disc-based attack and her first attack in the Sailor Moon manga, Sailor Venus throws her Compact at her enemy. In the Sailor Moon manga, it was used against Zoisite in Act 7 and easily killed the Dark General.
    • Sailor V Kick: Sailor Venus charges her planet power into a kick, powerful enough to hurt perverted nerds, brainwashed thugs, vampires, spirits, Dark Agency Members within dimensions they control, and people making her late.
    • Venus Love Me Chain: A chain/light-based attack used by Sailor Venus, one of the most versatile techniques in the series. In the manga, She would remove the chain from her waist and utilizes it to attack, grapple, defense, and even purification.
    • Holy Sword: Sailor Venus can summon the Holy Sword at will, the Holy Sword is harder then Diamonds, can piece beings with Large Stellar Durability and is extremely toxic.
    • Rolling Heart Vibration: Venus forms a magical heart within her hands and shoots it at her enemy, it was strong enough to warrant a counterattack from Dark Prince Endymion to defend Sailor Moon. In the manga, Sailor Venus cries out to her home planet, Venus, and then gains the ability to perform the Rolling Heart Vibration attack. A dark-colored heart appears in her hand and she directs it straight to the opponent, with the heart forming vibration-like patterns as it moves forward.
    • Energy Blasts: Venus can launch nameless energy blasts that can fade beings from existence.

    Joint Attacks and Techniques

    • Sailor Teleport: A group command performed by Sailor Moon and the four Inner Sailor Senshi as they stand in a circle with their hands joined. This command allows the group to transport instantly to their desired destination, whether it be on the Earth's surface or in Outer Space itself. The distance that can be traveled with this command is unknown, as the farthest the Sailor Senshi ever travel in the series is to the Moon.
    • Sailor Planet Attack: A group attack performed by the Inner Sailor Senshi, one of the most powerful attacks used in the manga that incorporates a number of Sailor Senshi every time it is used. Interestingly enough, Sailor Moon is not required for the attack to work. The attack was first used by the Inner Senshi to kill Kunzite. Later, the Inner Senshi use the attack against Queen Metalia (but to no avail).

    • Venus Love Me Chain: A chain/light-based attack used by Sailor Venus, one of the most versatile techniques in the series. In the manga, She would remove the chain from her waist and utilizes it to attack, grapple, defense, and even purification. It was able to harm even Esmeraude.
    • Rolling Heart Vibration: Venus forms a magical heart within her hands and shoots it at her enemy, but it was not strong enough to break Berthier's water spell that captured Sailor Mercury. In the manga, Sailor Venus cries out to her home planet, Venus, and then gains the ability to perform the Rolling Heart Vibration attack. A dark-colored heart appears in her hand and she directs it straight to the opponent, with the heart forming vibration-like patterns as it moves forward.

    • Venus Wink Chain Sword: Venus uses her chain to create a sword made of light and attacks her enemy. In the manga, it was first used against a Daimon in Act 29. The attack was strong enough to counter Mimete's Charm Buster.
    • Venus Love Me Chain: A chain/light-based attack used by Sailor Venus, one of the most versatile techniques in the series. In the manga, She would remove the chain from her waist and utilizes it to attack, grapple, defense, and even purification. It was able to undo Mimete's spell.
    • Crescent Boomerang: A disc-based attack and her first attack in the Sailor Moon manga, Sailor Venus throws her Compact at her enemy. It was used in Chibiusa's Picture Diary Chapter 1 - Beware of the Transfer Student against a ghost possessed Rei.
    • Akuryo Taisan 「悪霊退散あくりょ たいさん: In Rei and Minako's Girl School Battle?, a ghost possessed Rei and it was revealed that as a symbol of their friendship, Rei actually taught Minako the Exorcism technique which Minako used to exorcise the ghost from Rei.

    A more powerful form of Sailor Senshi that comes from the holy powers of the Holy Grail, the Super Sailor Power-Up increases the Sailor Senshi's Power by 10,000 times.

    An even more powerful state of the Super Sailor Senshi derived from her own Sailor Crystal which lets her access higher forms and directly tap into the power of her planet.

    • Venus Love and Beauty Shock: Sailor Venus charges her Love Whip with her energy to send a blast of light energy towards her target. When she was being manipulated by Galaxia she used an evil version of her attack called Venus Love and Galactica Shock.

    Joint Attacks

    • Sailor Planet Power Meditation: A group attack similar to Sailor Planet Attack, but much stronger and more powerful when it was first used by Solar System Sailor Guardians to attack Zirconia. The Sailor Guardians have to shout “Sailor Planet Power...” first, then say the name of their planet, then say “...Meditation!” to execute the attack.

    The Highest Conventional State of Sailor Senshi, in this state Sailor Venus' powers are comparable with the strongest Sailor Crystals in the Universe. This state increases her stats and her attack power by a drastic degree.

    After being killed and revived by Sailor Galaxia in Act 49 of the Stars arc, she possesses Galactica Bracelets similar to the ones Galaxia have. This form gives a further boost that increases power beyond that of the highest conventionsal state.

    • Venus Love and Galactica Shock: An alternate version of the Venus Love and Beauty Shock, Sailor Venus first and the only use of this attack in the manga in Act 58, when she was being manipulated by Sailor Galaxia. The links of her Love Whip are altered; They appear more round and seem to be made up of stars and galaxies.
    • Star Seed Rip/Removal: The Galactica Bracelets also allow for the ability to steal the star seeds, taking away the very essence of a being and leaving the body to evaporate into dust.

    Joint Attacks

    • Galactica Gale: An energy-based attack performed by the Inner Sailor Senshi in the manga only. The attack was performed by Sailors Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter while they were all under the control of Sailor Galaxia's bracelets.
    • Galactica Planet Attack: An energy-based attack performed by the Solar System Sailor Guardians, excluding Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi Moon, in the manga only. The Inner Senshi (excluding Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi Moon) and the Outer Senshi performed this attack while they were under the influence of Sailor Galaxia's bracelets. It is an alternate version of Sailor Planet Attack.


    Note:

    1. It's never been confirmed if the Sailor Senshi maintained their Lambda Powers outside the Galaxy Cauldron. As such it's unlikely these powers can be ascribed to EoS Sailor Venus, and it should be probably be considered along the lines of one-off power-ups.
