Overview

Luna hands Usagi the Disguise Pen as a tool for blending into whatever situation a mission calls for. Its magic reshapes her into the person she pictures, and it apparently carries over that figure's practical knowledge too. A bright bubblegum-pink body wears a golden band at its midpoint. Capping the top is a golden mount holding a crown-like piece studded with small red gems around one larger central stone. The manga and Crystal draw it a touch differently, giving it a slimmer cylindrical shape compared with the anime rendering.

Function

The user activates the pen with the phrase Moon Power, turn me into a..., completing it with whatever guise is needed. Usagi leaned on it constantly through the opening arc, taking the shape of a doctor, a flight attendant, a princess, and more to slip past guards or infiltrate enemy gatherings. In the live-action series the pen's job passed to the Teletia S, a device that folded the disguise power together with the communicators and was shared by all five Inner Guardians rather than Usagi alone.

Notable Users

Usagi Tsukino is the pen's main user, though Minako Aino also wields it. In the anime's third season Minako put it to use off-screen, turning into a disheveled Sailor Moon double to trick Kaolinite into handing back Usagi's Cosmic Heart Compact and to keep the real heroine alive. This came despite an earlier claim from Luna that only Usagi could operate the pen, a wrinkle the story softens by noting Minako's own gear held comparable disguise powers in the Codename: Sailor V material.
