Dark Water Full Power
CharacterDark Water Full Power is Berthier's desperate final gambit, a heightened version of her Dark Water attack. She unleashes it a single time in the 1990s anime, meaning to bring herself and all five guardians down together.
Overview
This technique marks the strongest expression of Berthier's water magic, an amplified form of her ordinary Dark Water. It appears only once, in roughly the seventy-first episode of the classic anime, functioning as a last-ditch effort rather than a routine weapon.
Mechanics
The attack reads as both an ultimate move and an act of self-destruction. Berthier commits to it as a final resort, aiming to wipe out the five Sailor Guardians while sacrificing her own life. Ice begins spreading across the surrounding area and over her own body as the power gathers.
Notable Users
Berthier alone performs the technique. Her sister Koan reaches the scene and talks her into halting the strike before it finishes, though Koan takes a battering from heavy blocks of ice while pleading with her. Swayed by the moment, Berthier agrees to let Sailor Moon restore her humanity through the power of the Moon Crystal.
