References and Cameo's

Sometimes a character or an item from another series will make an appearance in the fanseries. This page is to list all instances of references and cameo's in the *Sailor Stellar* series.

## Arc 1

### Act 1 - Hikari, Sailor Stellar

* Kiyomi calls Hikari "The Haruhi Suzumiya of this world"
* On the exact same page, Hikari mentions "Pinecest", a controversial incest ship in the Gravity Falls fandom
* The candy Hikari buys from Mousey's is Smile Dip, a sherbert based treat from Gravity Falls which was banned in the United States for containing hallucinogenic properties.
* The board behind Sailor Stellar reads 'Vanerope Von Shuwitsu' which is the Japanese romanized name of Vanellope Von Schweetz.

#### Changes in the Fanfiction.net Release:

* Hikari mentioning Pinecest was removed
* Since it's a written adaption, the Sugar Rush billboard was removed.

### Act 2 - Black Moon, Sailor Stellar (Manga Release)

* Bill Cipher can be seen on one the tapestries hanging in the ballroom
* On page 2, Rainbow Dash's cutie mark can be seen in the background of one panel

#### Changes in the Fanfiction.net release:

* Both the Bill Cipher tapestry and Rainbow Dash's cutie mark were omitted.

### Act 3 - Kiyomi, Sailor Galaxy

* Kiyomi mentions Lord Voldemort from the Harry Potter series in her lament.
* The manga Minako picks up is Sugar Rush, which is both a reference to the game Sugar Rush Speedway in Wreck-It Ralph and a reference to a short-lived comic vanderlindemorgan drew chronicling the adventures of the racers.

### Act 5 - Crystal Points, Attack

* "Very Fancy Restaurant" is a loose reference to the Very Fancy Door scene in *A Series of Unfortunate Events*. The door, being fancy, is out of place in the dark and grim lumbermill. Likewise, the casually dressed schoolgirls are out of place in the high dining venue.

### Act 7 - Usagi, Capture

* The song Hikari listens to is *Blank Space* by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.

### Act 9 - Grievance, A Lost Soldier

* The illusion of Sailor Moon that Wiseman conjures repeats the phrase "You lied and I died", a line spoken by an illusion Pennywise created of Georgie Denbrough to torment his older brother in *It: Chapter Two*.

### Act 10 - Time Travel, Crystal Tokyo

* The sugar bowl scene is a reference to the Sugar Bowl, an item from *A Series of Unfortunate Events*. Kiyomi remarks that the tea is rather bitter despite having sugar added, further referencing the contents of the Sugar Bowl.
