Overview

This is the third mystical arm Usagi comes to hold, and it serves as her main weapon through the Infinity storyline across the manga, the 1990s anime, Crystal, and many of the stage musicals. Crystal shortens its name to the Heart Moon Rod. The design centers on a pink shaft capped by a rounded golden tip, with a pair of stars set near the head. Above them sits a golden bow of four flaps and a large red heart rimmed in gold, its face holding an oval gem and four smaller stones, all topped by a little golden crown.

Function

Usagi relies on the rod chiefly to strike down Daimons, calling Moon Spiral Heart Attack as Sailor Moon and Rainbow Moon Heartache once she reaches her Super form. Teamed with Super Sailor Chibi Moon, the two combine into Rainbow Double Moon Heartache. In the anime the weapon is described as being born from the love shared by Usagi and Mamoru, and after serving through Sailor Moon S it is later reforged by Pegasus into the Moon Kaleido Scope as the SuperS season opens. A few musicals go further, placing the Silver Crystal itself inside the rod.

Notable Users

Both Sailor Moon and her future self, Neo-Queen Serenity, wield it. In the manga and Crystal it is the Queen's scepter, used to mend Crystal Tokyo after the Black Crystal's ruin, and it reaches Usagi as a replacement gift when her Cutie Moon Rod breaks during the fight with Death Phantom, delivered to her by Chibiusa. Through the Infinity arc she turns it on the Death Busters, wields Rainbow Double Moon Heartache against Mistress 9, and after Pharaoh 90 falls she takes her Neo-Queen Serenity form for the first time and heals the Earth with it. She also raises it against Princess Snow Kaguya and the Snow Dancers, both in the side story The Lover of Princess Kaguya and in the Sailor Moon S film.
