The fandom mocks Mamoru’s fashion sense but you know who has the real terrible fashion sense? THE SAILOR STARLIGHTS! Their workout outfits, their date outfits, Seiya’s tuxedo and their sailor form etc.

This is a very fair assessment. In their defense they are literally ALIENS, but that is barely an excuse. Presenting: Three Lights/Starlights Fashion Highlights

Do you know how many bottles of red pigment dyed to make this outfit?

The complete “casually Google searching for your lost princess at home” collection: suspenders, penny loafers, bright purple harem pants, and literally just a tablecloth wrapped around your body

Each of these outfits has multiple layers, and it works on none of them. 

Even in Minako’s imagination, they don’t have enough dignity to resist the magnetic pull of these sparkly epaulets and bellbottom slacks.

And, my personal favorite:

SOS (Save Our Shirts)

Maybe their band wasn’t much to talk about but their careers as style icons were FLOURISHING in 1997. 

I have yet to decide if this is an intentional continuity flaw, or if Usagi just has several incredibly similar photos stashed in various locations around her room.

Did something happen between the last 2 episodes that affected both Chibiusa’s existence and Mamoru’s fashion choices?

BUT WAIT: THERE’S MORE

I just happened upon this picture from episode 173, which appears to be exactly the same as the one from 182 (minus the frame, which is not intrinsic to the photograph itself). Though I’m certain more than one picture was ever taken of this couple, the fact that it’s on Usagi’s desk each time and that their poses are identical leads me to believe it’s intended to be the same photo. This additional instance of continuity (again barring Usagi’s apparent penchant for swapping frames) indicates both that perhaps this change is intentional and that I, officially, care way too much about this cartoon about magical girls

Mamoru leaving for college to be unceremoniously replaced by Seiya is basically exactly what happened with Steve and Joe in “Blue’s Clues”

I thought that “Star Serious Laser” was the stupidest attack phrase until Usagi opened her mouth to utter “Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss”

“Lasers are SERIOUS BUSINESS and anyone who thinks differently can leave right now.”

“We’re going to have to be more rigid about checking credentials before hiring. We only have one open spot from when Chibiusa left.”

Those boots are approximately three inches away from being pants.
