Every Power of Sailor Moon



I wanted to make a fun reference blog for all of Usagi's abilities. Back years ago I recall myself and friends trying to make this blog and we kept forgetting things, so I hope this truly is the complete list.

Because Usagi at the end of the series has absorbed the lambda power, the power of all the Sailor Crystals coming together as one

she has access hypothetically to any ability of any Sailor Senshi in the series which I'll specify with an added (Lambda Power) part.

9 Lives (Lambda Power):

The Mau Crystal in the materials collection is stated to grant the user "9 lives" a reference to the catlike nature of the inhabitants of Planet Mau. 


As Sailor Mau is never seen in the series, what this means is unknown, though given Naoko I imagine it work like 9 lives in a video game given her tendency to include arcade video game concepts.

Absorption:

Usagi has mastered the Silver Crystal and so like Queen Serenity can absorb entities into the Silver Crystal


Acausality:

Paradoxes in the Sailor Moon universe, like the same thing from two times touching, are supposed to cause a distortion in time too strong to stop



Despite this, Usagi can come into contact with herself from other times without paradox


This allows Usagi the incredibly strong ability to aid her younger self, via things like strengthening her or protecting her without creating paradox



Advanced Skill:

While Usagi begins the series rather clumsy and not a good soldier, over the course of the series she gains 2 years of experience as a Magical Girl Superheroine, 900 more years of experience as Neo-Queen Serenity and unknown more as Sailor Cosmos. She was also trained to fight and be a soldier without her knowledge from the Sailor V game


She plays this game up until Sailor V's introduction in Act 8 starting in Act 1. This training increases one's skill and coordination massievely to the point that after playing it on only one instance, Minako went from getting just over 2,000,000 points on another game to getting nearly 6,000,000 easily the high score of the game.


Considering that was just from playing Sailor V once, it suggests the game rapidly increases one's skill.

Air Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Uranus uses wind-based attacks like Uranus World Shaking that Usagi should be able to replicate


Anti-Magic:

Usages of stellar energy, the energy of the Sailor Senshi can undo magic if sufficiently strong enough. Sailor Moon undoes a spell on her via her henshin


Likewise, Sailor Moon's attacks destroy illusions


There are numerous examples of this across the series.

Astral Projection (Lambda Power):

Hotaru, Sailor Saturn's, soul was able to go to far off places from her body, doing so to return Chibiusa's soul and the Silver Crystal


King Endymion was also able to project his spirit as his body lay unconscious 


Astroremkinesis:

Usagi can make the moon shine with the same intensity as the Silver Crystal


and with the Lambda Power could start a new history of the heavenly bodies, seeming to mean restart the universe, though this may require the Galaxy Cauldron to do


Attack Negation (Lambda Power):

Galaxia granted her followers the ability to negate incoming attacks


Aura:

Sailor Moon's power creates an aura around her, giving off light and seeming to be the source of her barrier and flight


Benevolence:

Usagi is supernaturally good, to the point of being the literal messiah, one whose light impressed even Chaos, and called the soldier who embraces all




BFR:

Sailor Senshi can teleport others with them through dimensions


she gets the attack "Moon Gorgeous Meditation" which traps opponent in a spinning mirror dimension resembling the inside of a kaleidoscope


With the Lambda Power she also demonstrated the ability to BFR people in time, as Sailor Pluto could do


the Lambda Power sending all Star Seeds to their proper place in space-time


Binding:

Sailor Moon can use her moon tiara to trap enemies


Biological Manipulation:

The Coronis Crystal is stated in the materials collection to "control rot"


Blessed: 

Sailor Senshi are the legendary chosen soldiers, avatars of the Gods chosen to fate and born with duty



They are born under the protection of their guardian stars, the celestial bodies, granting them their resistances


Can Survive in Space:

Sailor Senshi are unaffected by the vacuum of space


Channeling:

Sailor Moon can channel the spirit or power of her future self



Clairvoyance:

Sailor Moon's mask lets her see distant events


Cosmic Awareness:

Sailor Senshi have on numerous instances sensed things on a cosmic distance. Sailor Moon sensed her friends deep within planet Nemesis while she was on the surface


She should likely be similar to Sailor Venus who sensed her friends on Nemesis at the edge of the Solar System while Venus was on Earth


Creation:

Usagi at numerous instances, created new magical items for herself out of her love



The Silver Crystal is the source of all energy


Death Inducement (Lambda Power):

Sailor Saturn, the Senshi of Death, can use a power known as the Silence which ends all life



Dimensional Travel:

Sailor Senshi can travel between dimensions with their teleportation 


Usagi's power allows her to travel into dimensions normally barred


Dream Scrying:

The dreams of the Sailor Senshi can predict the future


Dream Travel (Lambda Power):

Sailor Galaxia attacked Usagi in her dreams


This dream tells Usagi of the Galaxy Cauldron where Galaxia was directing her, and was something Usagi had no knowledge of beforehand.

Also Helios, who draws his power from Mamoru's Golden Crystal, another Sailor Crystal, was able to take Chibiusa on a dream travel over the city of Tokyo



Electricity Projection (Lambda Power):

Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Galaxia both use lightning-based powers



Empowerment:

Sailor Senshi grow stronger in times astrologically beneficial to their guardian star allowing Sailor Venus to resist an attack from one Ayakashi sister channeling the spirit of her 3 sisters as well, when each Ayakashi previously matched one of the other Guardian Senshi


Enchantment:

Sailor Senshi can imbue material objects with their energy to gain a new attack related to that object's nature. Sailor V did this to an anti-mosquito item to create an attack that would destroy mosquito type enemies


Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi-Moon did this to their kaleidoscopes to turn them into their new weapons, the Moon Kaleidoscopes which can trap an enemy in a dimension of spiraling mirrors resembling the inside of a kaleidoscope.



Energy Manipulation:

Sailor Senshi henshin, flight aura, attacks, and barrier often take the form of energy projection.




Their energy, the "stellar energy" is responsible for many of their unique powers.

Enhanced Senses (Feeling):

Usagi sensed the conception of her daughter within her


Chibiusa was able to feel the pain of her allies surging through across time


Enhanced Senses (Hearing):

Sailor Moon can hear distant sounds with her hair ornaments


The 30th Century Senshi were also able to "feel" Usagi's voice calling for them while they were on Earth and she was at the Galaxy Cauldron


Enhanced Senses (Sight) (Possibly only with Lambda Power):

The Outer Senshi were able to watch events happening on the Moon, from their outposts on Uranus, Neptune, and outside spacetime


Enhanced Senses (Smell) (Lambda Power):

The Sailor Starlights were able to smell Sailor Tin Nyanko's "alien pheremones" when no one else noticed anything suspicious about her


Essence Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Galaxia can remove the star seeds from things then recreate them loyal to her. With this Usagi can hypothetically manipulate anything about someone, making it manipulation above that of an Eternal Sailor Senshi's resistance level.


Existence Erasure (Possibly only with Lambda Power):

It seems that a generic energy blast from Sailor Venus physically erases Danburite


The Silver Crystal's sealing is referred to as "banishing from existence"


Sailor Galaxia has a form of existence erasure based on removing the Star Seed that even works on the Sailor Senshi and on whole planets. Sailor Senshi can resist the erasure of Planet Nemesis that was erasing the Earth and threatening even the spiritual projection of King Endymion




Explosion Inducement (Lambda Power): 

Sailor V was able to create an explosion with a karate chop


Extrasensory Perception:

MANY types. Sailor Moon can see and hear souls



She and Chibiusa were able to see the dream projection of Helios


Usagi could see King Endymion's spiritual projection and the conceptual entity Chaos



With the Lambda Power she should also have access to Sailor V's toonforce, which allowed for perceptin of metafictional things like last time recaps and text boxes



Sailor Moon's brooch responds to danger


They can sense the danger and suffering of their allies



Sailor Venus was able to sense her allies, despite being some not even partially awoken yet, in another country


Sailor Senshi can see energy auras, and gain information from the energy type



They can also sense energy from touch


Having good sensitivity and judgement abilities are part of the qualifications for being a Sailor Senshi


Can sense that people are watching them or wish them harm



Senshi seems to possess sensory abilities connected to their element such as Ami sensing the flow of water or Setsuna sensing distortions in spacetime



This is an abridged description, there's even more detail about Extrasensory Perception one could go into.

Fire Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Mars uses fire-based attacks


and the Cocoon Crystal is also noted in the materials collection to grant the power to manipulate fire.

Flight:

Sailor Moon can fly by creating an energy aura around her


She later was able to fly even without aura using her Eternal Form's wings


Forcefield Creation:

Sailor Moon can create a barrier around her


the Silver Crystal will automatically create a barrier around her, or grow to encompass her if she is threatened or dying



With the lambda power she can also replicate the barrier of Sailor Pluto which created a shield that blocked Mistress 9's soul-stealing attack


Fourth Wall Awareness (Probably only with Lambda Power):

Sailor V demonstrates fourth wall awareness likely as part of her toonforce, which Sailor Moon should be able to replicate with the Lambda Power.


Usagi DOES introduce herself to the readers in many of the early chapters, though this is likely just the general narrative trope, often employed in Shojo, of the main character having narration addressed to no one in particular. She never does it in dialogue unlike Minako.


Fragrance Manipulation:

In the materials collection Sailor Tin Nyanko is stated to manipulate scent. This may be connected to the Starlights' comment that she smells of alien phonemes.

Fusion:

An unexplained ability, Usagi stated she intended to "envelop Chaos with (herself)"


It's possible this was Absorption, it's not very clear. 

Healing:

Usagi is most famous in-universe for her healing ability. The Silver Crystal is the force of infinite rebirth


By the end of the first arc, Usagi could heal planets at once


With the Lambda Power, Usagi can restore the entire cosmos to the static cosmos, as this is the ultimate power of the Lambda Power.


Holy Projection:

Because the Sailor Senshi are incarnations of the Gods, their powers are considered holy, with their Henshin being the holiest of their powers


the Silver Crystal is also referred to as a "holy gem"


Ice Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Mercury while primarily using liquid water-based attacks, also uses some ice manipulation


In the Materials Collection it is also stated that Sailor Aluminum Seiren manipulates ice


Illusion Creation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Saturn was able to create illusory images with her power


Sailor Neptune is able to do similar


Immersion (Lambda Power):

Sailor V can enter and exit video games 


Immortality:

The Silver Crystal grants eternal life, and granted it to all those in Crystal Tokyo, where Usagi reigned


Sailor Senshi have two lives, the mortal lives of their incarnations, and their immortal lives as a Sailor Senshi. When a Sailor Senshi dies, she reincarnates until she awakens again to her immortal existence, with the prior mortal life treated as just a disguise 


Intangibility (Lambda Power):

Sailor Saturn demonstrated the ability to act as purely a non-corporeal soul including effecting other astral objects


Life-Force Manipulation:

The Silver Crystal is the power that grants life-energy to everything


this may be related to the fact that when the Lunar Senshi enchanted their kaleidoscopes, the objects literally came to life


Light Projection:

Sailor Senshi powers such as Henshin in general give off light


Sailor Moon in particular is associated with light, and her attacks are often light based




the first one being literally reflecting the light of the moon

Magic:

Sailor Senshi are magical guardians.

Matter Manipulation:

Sailor Moon's Moon Tiara turns people to dust


Memory Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Lethe and Mnesmonye can use their powers to erase or restore memories respectively



Mind Control:

Galaxia can force people to obey her



Mind-Reading (Lambda Power):

Galaxia sensed Usagi's intent to battle her from across the galaxy


Mirror Manipulation:

Usagi can use "Moon Gorgeous Meditation" as mentioned above to trap an opponent in a dimension of revolving mirrors.

Mist Manipulation (Lambda):

Sailor Mercury can create a distracting freezing mist


Non-Physical Interaction:

Usagi's power could destroy the conceptual entity Chaos and the Galaxy Cauldron, which predated and created all potential


with Minako's power she can likely interact with metafictional objects like text boxes and flashbacks 



Pain Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor Saturn can use attacks of negative energy that induced pain in the non-corporeal Pharaoh 90


Paralysis Inducement (Lambda Power):

Sailor Saturn's attack could paralyze Pharaoh 90


Past Life Awareness:

When a Sailor Senshi fully awakens, she has the memories of her past life. These are considered part of her immortal life as a Sailor Senshi



Plant Manipulation:

Sailor Jupiter has numerous planet-themed abilities and Sailor Heavy Metal Papillion also uses plant based powers.



Poison:

Sailor Moon can summon the Holy Sword of the moon, which is highly toxic


Possession (Limited):

Neo-Queen Serenity's spirit can possess her younger self


Power Bestowal:

Neo-Queen Serenity granted new powers on the Guardian Senshi


Precognition (Lambda Power):

Hotaru has visions which show her the future


She can also create a miniture solar system that shows future events




Psychometry (Lambda Power):

Mamoru, Tuxedo Kamen, can lay his hand on the Earth to gain information from it, even the status of individuals



Mamoru can also gain information about someone from touching them


This can be used to sent information and power to the past self 



Purification:

A power closely associated with Usagi's healing, the first appearence of the Silver Crystal purified the Earth


As the Lambda Power is the ultimate power that restores the static cosmos, it's likely her purification reaches universal status.

Reactive Power Level:

During times of crisis, a greater power comes to Sailor Moon from the Holy Grail, she gets stronger from the need to fight



Reality Warping:

The Silver Crystal has the power to make miracles and to grant wishes



Regeneration (Lambda Power):

The Lambda Power itself regenerated Usagi after she was erased in the Galaxy Cauldron, down to Sailor Crystal, erased from history


Resurrection:

Sailor Moon can easily resurrect people, even resurrect the whole Earth first when the Silver Crystal appeared and later at the end of the arc.



Retrocognition (Lambda Power):

King Endymion can watch over Chibiusa, even as she adventures in the past


Sealing:

Sailor Moon can seal entities, banishing them from existence


Neo-Queen Serenity sealed away an entire planet


It's also somewhat suggested she can seal away even hatred itself


Most likely this is just a poetic way of talking about destroying Death Phantom, whose body had long since disappeared, his hatred becoming the mysterious phantom force animating planet Nemesis

Shapeshifting:

Usagi has the disguise pen which can disguise her


assuming this is similar to Minako's disguise henshin, it should allow Usagi to disguise herself into specific persons real or historical and get all associated items of theirs



Sleep Inducement:

Neo-Queen Serenity put Luna and Artemis asleep for millennia from the fall of the Moon Kingdom before the current evolutionary period of Earth to the present day



Smoke Projection (Lambda Power):

Sailor V was able to create sulphuric smoke replicating the atmosphere of Venus


Soul Manipulation (Lambda Power):

As a soul, Hotaru was able to return the souls of the Sailor Senshi back to them


Sound Manipulation:

Usagi's first attack was her crying amplified by her hairpieces into Ultrasonic waves


This attack can threaten to destabilize the space of dimensions, and was effective against a ghost



Sailor Aluminem Seiren uses a brainwashing song


Spatial Manipulation:

As mentioned above, Usagi can destroy spatial dimensions with her crying. The Silver Crystal is said to have dominion over spacetime, its light warping spacetime multiple times




Sailor Mercury was able to create a hyperspace, meaning a higher dimensional space, bubble in order to minimize collateral damage


Statistics Amplification:

Sailor Moon's powers are dependent on the status of her heart, her faith, resolution, and love


This allows her power to rise or drop with her emotional state, to the point of going from an enemy tanking her attack to one-shotting her mid-blast



as well as going from weaker than Blady Lady, who Wiseman a tiny avatar created by Death Phantom who transmuted Chibusa into from sheer will, to being on the level of the real Death Phantom




Sulfur Manipulation (Lambda Power):

As mentioned above, Sailor Venus was able to create a sulphuric smoke/


Summoning:

Usagi can summon people and objects to her side


Superhuman Durability:

While weaker than it, Eternal Sailor Moon was able to withstand the attack from Chaos after it melded into one with the Galaxy Cauldron, the source of all potential in the Sailor Moon Cosmos


This is a god tier durability feat for Sailor Moon-verse, scaling above the Silver Crystal creating all energy


with the Lambda Power, Usagi's durability is an unknown amount higher. 

Superhuman Intelligence (Lambda Power):

With the Lambda Power, Usagi has access to the superhuman intelligence granted by the Mercury Crystal, which grants an IQ of over 300


and should be relative to the intelligence of Professor Tomoe's "super life forms" which had an intelligence hundreds of times that of a human


Superhuman Speed:

On the lower end, Eternal Sailor Chibi-Moon and company flew from the Earth to the center of the Galaxy instantly to save Usagi, which Sailor Moon is above.


The Eternal Senshi also seem to be relative in speed to the Lambda Power which instantly restored the cosmos, and which should be superior to the power of the Silver Crystal which reached beyond spacetime in the moment of Saphir swinging his hand down to hit Usagi with the Black Crystal






This has been calced at just over 1 quintillion c and seems generally accepted.

Also with the Lambda Power, Sailor Moon should also have superhuman running speed


Superhuman Stamina:

The Silver Crystal gives infinite, never-ending energy 


Superhuman Strength:

Despite its incredible gravity that can trap light, Usagi can stand on planet Nemesis and her physical strikes can harm youma comparable to herself at the beginning of the series


with the Jupiter Crystal's power through the Lambda Power, she gets an amplification to her striking strength that seems proportionally even stronger than her energy projection given Super Sailor Jupiter was able to punch out Queen Nehelenia


Supernatural Charisma:

Sailor Senshi transform into women of strength and beauty


and the Sol System Senshi are envied across the galaxy for their strength and beauty.


Minako was able to defeat a male enemy via transforming with disguise power into a form so beautiful he was knocked unconcious by nosebleed, something Usagi should hypothetically be able to do


Neo-Queen Serenity is so beautiful the madman terrorist Demande propogandized against her his whole life fell in love with her at first sight


 The alien warlord Galaxia was so won over by Usagi's conviction and belief in the future that she believed Usagi was the perfect heavenly body she had searched for so long for, even though it would mean her own death to do so


Chaos, the primordial darkness did not want to destroy Usagi but for the light and darkness to join together as one again, entranced by her shine


Supernatural Wisdom:

Usagi is known for her empathy and ability to understand the feelings of others, to the point that at the end of the series she was even able to understand the motives of the conceptual darkness Chaos itself


Telekinesis:

Sailor Moon telekinetically shatters the surface of Nemesis


Telepathy (Lambda Power):

Galaxia telepathically transmitted the images of the Outer Senshis' deaths into Usagi's mind


Teleportation:

Sailor Senshi can teleport using their henshin power


the Silver Crystal will also automatically teleport Sailor Moon away from danger


Text Manipulation (Lambda Power):

As mentioned above Artemis was able to scratch out a text box 


Time Manipulation:

All the prior mentioned feats of spacetime manipulation apply here as well. When Usagi first fully awoke it seemed to cause time to turn backwards. It seems, at first like a poetic way of saying they are gaining their memories back but Mamoru's watch literally turns backwards



Sailor Moon with the Lambda Power can also use the Pluto Crystal's power of time manipulation such as time travel and temporal BFR



It's also somewhat implied Sailor Pluto can manipulate time in a general sense, though stopping it entirely is taboo for her


Time Stop (Lambda Power):

Just as Sailor Pluto, Usagi can stop time with the Lambda Power, though not being bound by the same taboo, Usagi will not die if she does so.


Toonforce (Possibly Lambda):

As mentioned before Sailor V has toonforce feats that likely apply to Sailor Moon with the Lambda Power. Usagi on rare instances also shows very mild toonforce feats in the main manga, most often reacting negatively at the words or thoughts attacking her even if she's not actually there.


Transmutation:

Usagi summoned the Mautians to her side, transforming them from their cat forms to their human forms


Water Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Numerous Sailor Senshi including Sailor Mercury, Sailor Neptune, and Sailor Aluminem Seiren have demonstrated water manipulation 



Weather Manipulation (Lambda Power):

Sailor V was able to create a mystical purifying rain


Resistance to Absorption:

Queen Metaria and Death Phantom both have the ability to absorb entities, yet Sailor Moon withstood being inside of both



Resistance to Age Manipulation:

Sailor Crystals can control the aging of Senshi, keeping them from aging or rapidly aging them



Resistance to Blindness Inducement:

Metaria's presence made Mamoru go blind, but Sailor Moon was unaffected


Resistance to Body Control:

The Evil Eye gives one control of the bodies of others, yet Sailor Moon as she grew stronger resisted its power






Resistance to Energy Manipulation:

Withstood being with Metaria and Death Phantom, despite both draining energy



Resistance to Essence Manipulation:

Sailor Moon was not killed by having her Sailor Crystal removed, though was heavily affected


Resistance to Existence Erasure:

Sailor Moon withstood being within Death Phantom despite its existence erasing ability


Resistance to Fate Manipulation:

Super Sailor Moon broke Nehelenia's curse condemning Super Sailor Moon to die




Resistance to Fusion:

Resisted Pharaoh 90's assimilation ability which allows him to fuse with whole planets


Resistance to Matter Manipulation:

Resisted with heavy effort Chiral and Achiral's atomic magnetic control of atoms





Resistance to Memory Manipulation:
Sailor Moon regained her memories in the river of oblivion which erases memories


Resistance to Mind Manipulation:

People seem to distinguish this power into a lot of categories, though I'm not sure how specific a resistance one needs to resist a similar type of power. The Sailor Senshi have resisted all manners of mind manipulation including illusions, showing them horrific nightmares, showing them images of what they desire, mind manipulation that turns people violent, mind manipulation that turns people obsessive, and direct brain control. In terms of scale Metaria brainwashed the whole Earth yet Usagi tanked being within her, and the mental hax and resistance tier goes up further an unspecified amount.


Resistance to Paralysis:

Usagi recovered quickly from the paralyzing Silver Crystal and was later immune


Resistance to Petrification:

Metaria turned people to stone, and in the Silver Millennium, turned the whole Moon to stone from the lush planetoid it used to be. Despite this Sailor Moon was able to survive within her.




Resistance to Poison:

Sailor Senshi can tank the poison of the Black Crystal Monoliths


Resistance to Power Absorption:

The power of the Silver Crystal is controlled by Usagi even when in someone else


Resistance to Power Nullification:

Sailor Moon transformed and escaped from Nemesis' surface despite it nullifying all forms of power. 




Resistance to Radiation:

The Sailor Senshi can tank the surface of Nemesis despite its massive radiation


Resistance to Soul Manipulation:

Pharaoh 90 planned to vesselize the planet, vesselize being the process his daimon used to remove the soul from people or animals and inhabit their bodies like bodysuits, suggesting Pharaoh 90 may have planetary soul manipulation as its goal was to become the worldsoul of Earth. Despite this Sailor Moon could withstand being Pharaoh 90 without losing her soul.


Resistance to Time Stop:

The Silver Crystal can grant resistance to time stop




Honestly each of these categories could have a way longer explanation. As a fun bonus outside the level of supernatural wisdom and charisma, this is basically the powerset of anyone who has gained the lambda power.

General Awesomeness:

I don't usually make a section in my blogs for general feats so I just wanted to, for once, make just a list of why this character is awesome for my favorite character.
  • Regularly beats up horrific Cthulhu Mythos-esque monstrosities
  • Despite being a rather cowardly 14 year old girl with no experience of the supernatural, courageously goes to face her first fight with a monster just because she heard her friend Naru was in danger
  • Her awakening to her true identity resurrects people across Earth, curing disease, and revitalizing it
  • Was forbidden to love someone from the Earth as a Lunarian. Did so anyway, a love so strong it would go on to save the universe multiple times. 
  • Defeats the Dark Kingdom's greatest warrior in a sword duel, despite his likely far greater swordsmanship training and her heart being in despair for having to fight her true love
  • Unified her identities as Princess Serenity and Sailor Moon and turned a planet-sized energy-draining mind-warping cosmic darkness to space dust restoring the destroyed Moon Kingdom as a side-effect
  • Became queen of the moon at age 14 and as her first act restored everyone to life on Earth
  • Was abducted by a madman terrorist sexual harraser who used magical powers to control her body to a place where she had no powers and where they tried to blame her for their crimes. Slapped him in the face and defied him at every turn. Regained her powers of her own accord, rescued herself and her friends kept prisoner there but not before defying Demande again to his face saying she's not responsible for the evil he does.
  • Holds back the existence-erasing power of a sentient black hole controlled by the phantom hate of a super-criminal with her light, that transcended time. This act was so incredible people thought it had to have had been performed by herself from 900 years later. She and her time traveling daughter later blew up that Black Hole with a double attack. 
  • Alien divine king from another dimension that sought to fuse with the Earth browned its metaphorical pants at how strong she was. 
  • Refused to sacrifice one innoncent life even to save the universe, earning the trust of the legendary Soldier of Ruin Saturn, breaking the universe from the threat of cyclical reset of life's history. 
  • Proclaimed the Messiah by 15. 
  • In less than 2 years reached the level of mastery with the Silver Crystal as Queen Serenity, a goddess with millennia of experience
  • Despite her love having a contagious disease that was painfully fatal and seemingly could not be cured, refused to leave his side. Regret nothing when caught it.
  • Usagi and Mamoru's love was so powerful it became known across spacetime.
  • She singlehandedly ended a war of the Sailor Senshi that has devastated the galaxy at age 16.
  • Sailor Galaxia was created as a character meant to challenge Usagi's ideals. Spent the entire fifth arc physically, emotionally, and mentally toturing her, destroying Usagi's loved ones such that they could never be resurrected. Usagi saved her anyway, an act that broke even Galaxia's will.
  • Usagi's future self pled with her to let the universe die, as the future would be nothing but endless strife and conflict leaving her hopeless. Usagi at this point had lost all her loved ones, seemingly forever. Usagi refused, understanding the feelings of Chaos and Galaxia, and plunged into the existence-erasing soul-deleting source of all things with the ultimate evil Chaos to show even IT love, accepting the painful temporal chaotic nature of being, an act of love so immense it destroyed Chaos accidentally, an act of courage and hope so immense it inspired her future self to continue to fight.
  • Guardian Cosmos, overseer of the universe, was shocked at how powerful Usagi was and asked HER if she wanted to start the universe over again
  • At age 22, became queen of the Earth, turning it into a harmonious utopia of immortals

The Biggest Stuff:
if you just want to know the most important vs things about Usagi I would say those are:
Universal+ Power, Healing/Purification and Spacetime Hax
Planetary Mind/Soul/Essence Hax
MFTL+ 
Time Travel/Four-Dimensional Combat + Acausality
Time Stop
BFR/Sealing (Planetary, can BFR in dimensions and through time)
Superhuman ability to charm others through beauty and charisma
Existence Erasure/Death Manipulation
Cosmic Awareness
Reality-Warping
Infinite Stamina
Can hit conceptual and maybe even metafictional plane
Resistance to essentially every conventional hax

How they Compare: Xavier (Xavier: Renegade Angel)

 


Xavier is the protagonist of the animated series "Xavier: Renegade Angel." Xavier was born to a surrealist world where strange and absurdist things happen as some kind of strange faun-like creature with a living snake for a hand and a beak for a nose. As a child, Xavier was outcasted for his differences and emotionally abused by his parents. Eventually the child Xavier burned down their home, killing his father and losing track of his mother, an event so traumatic to young Xavier he blocked it from his mind.

Without memory of what happened Xavier trained as a shaman with Chief Master Guru for 9 years so he could travel the world seeking to find his mother and avenge his father. As Xavier traveled the world he also sought to answer the great philisophical question "What doth life?". As he did so he caused death, madness, and chaos semi-inadvertely as he sought for the answerdue to his stupidity, philisophical detachment from reality, and mystical shaman powers.


Xavier's powers are somewhat physically inconsistent due to the nature of the absurdist world he lives in. Physically speaking even normal humans can survive inside the winds of a building sized tornado and Xavier himself was barely damaged by a lightning bolt hitting him. Both events's full energy would be building level, although surviving only a notable fraction of that would most likely be wall level. Xavier doesn't seem to be physically stronger than the norm for his verse. Normal humans in the series also have difficult to interpret cosmic level feats like creating a hot dog chain strong enough to link the Earth and Moon, keeping the Earth from orbiting the Sun, and potentially surviving the Earth turning inside out. The greatest potential strength/durability feat for Xavier's base state is that in one episode Xavier entered a door into a world with highly stylized animation where he fought the Sun God who controls the Sun, before being eaten by and fusing with the Sun. This might be star level, however the Sun in this world doesn't appear to be very big, though that may be due to the heavy stylization.

Speedwise, even in episode 1 Xavier was able to quickly run from a town to a specific US military base outside the town. This would likely be a supersonic, potentially hypersonic feat depending on assumptions. When driving a vehicle Xavier was able to outdrive a living explosion over a large amount of land. While this wasn't his own speed, it does suggest he has at least hypersonic reactions. In the prior mentioned ep Xavier also seems to move comparably to the Sun which travels around the center of the galaxy at about Mach 670. It also came to Earth seemingly quickly, requiring FTL speeds although again the Sun in this dimension may not be like the Sun in the main Earth. This may be consistent with Xavier seemingly moving at similar speeds to the sludge of the immortal hitman in episode 12 which was quickly transmuting the area, visually reaching the Sun in seconds which would also be FTL speeds. Regardless speed is somewhat irrelevant to Xavier.


Xavier's main power is his Subjective Reality, where how he feels, thinks, and subjectively "percieves" reality directly shapes reality. A clear example of this is when he found out he was actually the murderer of his father, the mental strain caused him to literally split into two, "the physical manifestion of some loser's inner demons" and "some total chode's inability to confront the reality of his past actions" respectively or when he time traveled by eating lots of bacon and smoking lots of cigarettes after hearing they take minutes off your life. Because of this Xavier manifests new abilities constantly and each one usually only comes up sporadically. Because of this power and Xavier's lack of awareness, Xavier is often completely unaffected by changes to the world around him. He is completely acausal and completely unaffected by changes to his past such as when he went back to speak to his child self and accidentally turned him into the insane thing he is today, was unaffected by the entire world being frozen around him, even freezing the tv screen watching him, and from the accelerated airquake which was destroying reality around him. He was also unaffected by the techno-virus digitizing the world around him condensing it into a little white orb as well as the spiritually transmitted disease that was plaguing a town. Even the cosmic reality-warping of the Shakashuri Blowdown was something which Xavier withstood though did at least allow him to change himself.

Xavier's subjective reality can alter his physical traits, or these are just weird physical abilities he has from his species or something. He was able to do acrobatic flips as a sports mascot that the other team just gave up, and claims to know how to track. He claims to have been trained for 22 years to fight with his feet. He has enough stamina to survive weeks without food or water and once wept for 9 months straight turning a desert into a sea. He at various times has shown levels of regeneration including having his skin burned to charcoal, being turned inside out, and once was chopped up into steaks but still had animate control of his body-steaks and poured a liquid on them which condensed back into his body. This would be equivalent to a High-Mid Regeneration. Seemingly related, Xavier can easily transform himself or other things. He turned himself into a buffalo, adjusted his own size and shape, and accidentally turned a rainbow into a fire trying to heal it. He accidentally turned people into grinder sandwichs by touching them and once seemingly turned a desert into a sea, unrelated to the other time. Xavier can use this power to heal if need be, as he healed a humble mosquito.  

Xavier can also physically interact with intangible things. His mentor was able to physically destroy a rainbow. Xavier himself ate the heart of an explosion, and destroyed a spiritually transmited disease with an improvised arrow. He was also able to tear off a piece of the fabric of reality, and scene transitioned by physically pulling at the background. 


Xavier's most commonly used power is mental powers. He described his only superpower as "the power to blow minds with weapons-grades philisophical insight." It is implied in the first episode even normal people in this verse can hear thoughts such as Xavier's internal monolauge. Xavier has a large amount of unclassified mental powers due to is training as a shaman. Xavier can see the future in flames. He can consume brain matter to absorb the memories within and can literally enter the emotions of people as he did to a cavewoman's anger. He has unnatural maddening effect able to unite even complete enemies together in hatred of him and was even able to drive a rorschach ink blot insane. He's described as an "8th level imaginanist" who can think up imaginary people that have real physical effects on the world and caused the ink blot to manifest physically. He was even able to tap into the consciousness of Mother Earth, the brain of the universe to gain information though poorly sorted through Xavier's insanity.His master also demonstrated the ability to create a mental plane fist to punch Xavier and it's likely Xavier could do the same.

His most used mental ability, and his most potent is his Flashback Manipulation, a form of metafictional memory manipulation. Xavier can see and talk to flashbacks and knows when flashbacks are talking to him. He's able to look into other peoples' flashbacks as well as see events he wasn't there for.  He can enter into meta-flashbacks, entering the flashbacks and memories of peoples he sees in his flashbacks. Much more potent is he can manipulate the flashbacks to retroactively change events, such as taking a spoiled rich kid and making him undergo the Shaman's training of Xavier as a boy for 6 months, taking things out of his flashbacks into reality even as tiny people, or retroactively choosing a different path by imagining if he taken it. He was even able to trap himself dozens of mental layers deep. Via his flashback's manipulation of the past and his acausality, he can hypothetically negate speed advantages.

Xavier also has more limited spiritual powers. He was able to speak to his father's spirit in the clouds, and can see and interact with auras.

Outside of Xavier himself, Xavier's arm is a living snake which is a seperate thinking entity. This snake can easily grow large enough to consume people. When it consumes something it seems to give Xavier some of the thing it ate, as when it ate babies Xavier claimed he had recieved youthful energy, though that may just be Xavier's delusions. When Snake Hand ate Xavier it created an entity called the "Everchild", symbol of eternal youth, which with its death became an egg from which Xavier hatched again. 

Xavier's strongest ability requires his Shakashuri, his ultimate weapon, a flute-like instrument. With it Xavier can use his magical song. Even an improvised quickly made Shakashuri was able to reverse the effects of the Digitization virus. When the two Xaviers split from Xavier's inner turmoil had the true Shakashuri they engaged in a Shakashuri Blowdown. The Blowdown was a mental-emotional battle between the two, warping all of reality into a series of bizarre esoteric imagery, colors, odd fracticals and more, including absorbing temporarily the whole of reality, recreating it through their battle. 

In terms of weaknesses, Xavier has three. By far the biggest and most obvious is Xavier's mental degradation. Xavier is massively stupid, delusional and insane. The plots of most episodes involve Xavier seeing a minor issue or a non-problem he interprets as one and pretentiously trying to fix it, creating far bigger problems as he does so, never even noticing. He regularly has absolutely massive lapses in common logic. He's a gullible pretentious sociopath and going on philisophical rants. On occasion this actually comes in handy for Xavier as while he can be relatively easy to manipulate, he sometimes is too deluded and lost in his thoughts to listen to others trying to manipulate him. 

Second is that Xavier has taken a vow of Pacifism. This vow is inconsistently enforced, but when Xavier is acting on it, he has been beaten numerous times by completely normal people without resisting even marginally. Finally to use his strongest power he needs his Shakashuri. He can improvise one from normal objects, but the effect seems to be lessened.

If Xavier's philosophical journey brought him to the realms of other universes, how would he do?


If Xavier was in the DC universe, his usual stats wouldn't be particullarly impressive only really being comparable to particularly strong normal humans in the DC Universe, which actually fits pretty well. Xavier's casual sociopathy means he would be quickly targeted as a villain especially given his mystical power source of potency strong enough to threaten the universe.

Despite this, a lot of character would severely struggle against to battle Xavier due to his broken Flashback Manipulation. Metafictional time and memory manipulation are pretty broken ability especially if his meta powerset means he'd be effecting hypertime. Against one of the usual magic heroes or villains, I could imagine a big universal-scale mystical battle similar to the Shakashuri Blowdown or the battle between Zatanna and Zor where most high tiers mage would win due to Xavier's own weaknesses. The Speedsters may be able to resist Xavier's time manipulation, or his memory manipulation might work regardless, and J'onn could potentially order Xavier's mind as he did to the Joker.

That said DC has one other character that would be the ideal character to stop Xavier: Superman. Superman has a resistance to reality-warping and having his history erased that is absolutely immense to the point that the DC metaverse formed around the story of Superman. Time Trapper, Mr. Mxyzptlk and Doctor Manhatten have all tried to change Superman's history and he simply resisted or adapted to it. Xavier's strongest forms of attacks are exactly the types of things Superman is best at withstanding.  Xavier can't enter Superman's rage because Superman is supernaturally calm and patient. Rebirth Superman is durable enough to withstand even attacks from Xavier absorbing the cosmos, and Superman is not only a massive supergenius that can manipulate Xavier but is also famously good at reforming the troubled. Superman would be able to quickly find out Xavier's tragic backstory, his status as an outcast freak and help reform him.


In the Marvel Universe, Xavier would be...far more bizarre than he would be in DC. Even the very low tiers would be signifigantly physically superior but Xavier's mystical powerset would be seen as signifigantly more bizarre, especially its more spiritual and metafictional components. This crossover kind of demands that Xavier come across Professor Xavier at some point and on some level I think Professor X is probably the more efficient counter for Xavier, who is himself kind of a mutant. Professor X should be able to mentally calm Xavier and keep him docile. Professor Xavier, similar to Superman above, is perhaps the best character in his universe at helping to reform the troubled and conflicted. 

Against most metahumans up to the skyfather level, Xavier would be a massive threat due to his powers brokenness, assuming his own weaknesses don't get in the way. While Xavier considers himself a heroic savior, the biggest threat that could come of Xavier being in Earth 616 is if one of the villainous schemers manipulates him as a pawn, or given his power level, more like a rook.


In the Charlie the Unicorn-verse, Xavier would be insanely broken. His usual stats make him fairly relative to the verse if much slower (maybe hypersonic wall level vs MHS wall level), but his hax are insane for the verse. 

The big threat of the Charlie the Unicorn-verse are the Chaos Spirits, but while comparably versatile to Xavier, Xavier's arsenal of abilities are far more broken and Xavier can easily interact with the chaos spirits as he was able to shoot the spiritually transmitted disease infecting a town. The one trick to this is the Chaos Spirits are far more cunning and could likely manipulate the gullible renegade angel if he allows them.

However the big problem comes from the fact that the Chaos Spirits don't have a trap with which they can permenantly kill Xavier given he has a comparable regen to them and can acausally protect himself. Their only real strategy would be to continually try and trick him and possess him which is unlikely to work as Xavier escaped dozens of mental layers inside his own mind. In a way this would be a suitable sense of karma, Xavier tormenting the Chaos Spirits as they have done to mortals.


If the main character of the absurdist adult cartoon entered the absurdist children's cartoon...Xavier would actually fit relatively well in FOP. The highballed estimate of his power fits well with the general tier of characters scaling from Dimmsdale citizens' surving the energy of the Earth being sent into the Sun with relativistic speed and he has similar skill/intelligence tiering to the civilians of the verse, if wildly more sociopathic. 

Xavier's Shakashuri would be essentially like his fairy wand giving him similar universal warping power. Xavier's metafictional abilities would be a bit of an outside problem for the verse, though they are far more versatile and higher tiered fairies like Jorgen are definitely smarter and more skilled than Xavier. 

A really interesting battle I think would be Xavier with his Shakashuri vs Timmy when he gave himself fairy magic using his wand. The two would both be acausal entities fighting across time, both being supernaturaly skilled. While Xavier would have the advantages in resistances to reality-warping by default and metafictional powers, Timmy would have far more versatility, and being generally smarter. Overall I think Xavier would make for a decent mid-tier for the verse, with his Shakashuri putting him on the level of a weaker fairy.


From what I understand Xavier: Renegade Angel and Rick and Morty have a mild fandom rivalry due to some similarities in themes, both being animated adult swim series and due to a total yin-yang dichotomy between their main characters. In the Rick and Morty-verse Xavier's physical strength and durability would be relatively normal as most humans and aliens scale off Rick himself, being thrown through several floors and fighting aliens that can tear through walls as teenagers. Xavier would be oddly fast for the verse. Rick and Morty speedwise mostly scale speedwise off Rick avoiding close range pistol shots from another Rick when reality was divided into two timelines. Xavier's unclear supersonic to hypersonic would thus be signifigantly faster but not to the point that they couldn't fight.

If Xavier's philisophical travels took him into the R&M-verse, he'd be a massive and overpowering threat to anyone there he decided to actually fight. Even without his Shakashuri Xavier's powers like on-touch transmutation, putting people into his flashbacks, and attacking with mental plane forces would be totally outside context problems. Even against relative strong characters like Mr. Needful or Scary Terry, Xavier is prone to doing very well through things like using stronger causality manipulation across time or trapping him in numerous mental layers of memories respectively. Most likely he would eventually be apprehended by the space-time police, though ironically Xavier may be able to win a similar way Rick did using metafictional background manipulation that the multidimensional beings would be forced to percieve at once.

This brings to the fight itself: Xavier vs Rick himself. The two would definitely dislike each other if they met representing opposite ends of the extremes of existentalism and nihilism, even if the two are ironically similar in some regards. Assuming Rick has prep he should be able to win pretty clearly but a no-prep fight really does seem like it could go either way depending on how well Rick is able to, or even tries to, manipulate Xavier's weaknesses. Both have powers the others really don't understand based on spiritiuality and science respectively. Both have universal warping abilities reliant on the objects they have on them. This would honestly be a pretty good fight.
