Venus Crystal
ItemThe Venus Crystal is the honey-yellow Sailor Crystal belonging to Minako Aino. It fuels her ascent into the Super and Eternal levels of Sailor Venus across the manga and the Sailor Moon Eternal films, and it comes to her by way of her guardian cat Artemis.
Overview
Among the Sailor Crystals, this warm yellow stone is the one bound to Minako Aino. It embodies the reserve of power she taps once her basic transformation gives way to something greater, featuring in the later manga chapters and the theatrical Sailor Moon Eternal.

Holding the crystal, Minako can rise into her stronger identities as Super Sailor Venus and later Eternal Sailor Venus. The change is triggered with the spoken cue Venus Crystal Power, Make Up. The gem itself does no fighting; it acts solely as the gateway to those upgraded forms.
