Even with all this going on, don't think I'm predicting an overthrow of the government. If there is any change in the government, it'll be by consent of the Queen because she is a cosmic. Fucking. Power. If there is a changeover, it'll be voluntary.

Make no mistake: if/when Usagi gets off her throne and *does* something, everyone who stands against her loses. Probably inside of a few seconds. I'm not disputing that. But in this scenario, she's crippled. And so are her best forces by extension.á
Shakes head and sniggers... I have to enter the fray after all... despite efforts to avoid it. This comment forces my hand.

That defies the concept of her being elected if it is subject to her whim. Additionally... you imply she does not do the job she is elected to unless she decides to.

I see no efforts of an elected leader... no attempts at parlay, negotiation, diplomacy, or conventional means. Merely a government run to her standards of 'good'.

Thus... evil Crystal Tokyo.
You're missing the point.

"Usagi's consent" does not mean "a legal neccessity for Serenity to give permission as to the establishment of a new government".

"Usagi's consent" means "there's a minor god living on your planet and if you do something she finds abhorrent, no matter how legal it is, you're screwed".

Want an analogy? Okay, let's say you're living on the same planet as Superman or Son Goku. You and the rest of the normal people finally get together in one big worldwide election and elect President Kyon as Worldwide President or something.

Legally speaking, you don't need Superman or Son Goku's permission, right? But realistically speaking, if Superman or Son Goku were to decide that President Kyon was too sarcastic to be World President and take it upon themselves to be vigilantes, what are you going to do? What are you going to be able to do?

In all probability, nothing that matters. See, no matter how democratic you want it, democracy in such world will only work with the express or implied permission of the local dieties of that world because even if you had the legal means to oppose them, you don't have the means to stop Superman or Son Goku from becoming the God-Emperor if they so wanted it.

In the same way, the world of SM will be more or less dependent on Serenity's whims. Even if you legally strip her of all her political power, even if all the legitimate governments of the world turn their backs on her, she can still kick mankind's collective ass. Now maybe that's not fair, but the world isn't fair.

Consider this: Is Serenity evil just because she could destroy the world if she wanted to and the rest of us would have to live with that? If she stands aside and let a catasthrophe happen despite having the power to prevent it, does that make her evil? If she prevents the apocaplyse by use of power only she can weild, does that make her evil as well? Would she be evil because she's trying to save the world without our consent? Would she be evil if she left us to ourselves, if she just up and left and took Eden with her?

In the end, <s>Haruhi</s> Serenity has power just by being who she is. No democratically elected government can take away her power or give it to President Kyon. And I think that, as long as she has that power, she will be obligated to use it for what she thinks is good; her conscience will simply not let her live with the consequences otherwise.

Nah, Usagi will "purify" them with ginzuishou. After that they won't have the capacity to be discontented with their Dear Leader.
Purification is fanon only. Purification is the process of outside forces leaving your body in the anime.

In any case...á the malcontents may well have a legitimate fear...á that of Chibi-Usa being put in charge if mother at her whim decides it.á Chibi-Usa has proven to be without the same morals as most of us.á It either is a reflection on Usagi for not instilling the same values into her daughter, or is a reflection of her true nature as a defender of love and justice.
I dissagree. If her condition for leaving power is a new election, she is still good.

As for parlay and negotiations, I don't see these groups give a rats as about that. They believe they are fighting a big bad and wont't be swayed by "Obvious attempts at bribery of the virtous defenders of mankind". (Or some such bullshit.)

It might be true that "One mans terrorist is the other mans freedom-fighter" but that works the other way around too.

And you have my answer on the Chibi-U thingy. But let me copy-n-paste for the others.
My problem...á is Chibi-usa, should reflect the values and moors of her parents.á Chibi-usa has shown she has no quals about hypnotizing, mind control, and manipulation.á

Thus if Usagi was a good parent, then she is not against it either.

If Usagi is not a good parent (a fact seemingly suported by how wiki defines the Luna P in manga, and how it is in anime alone with relationship to Pluto), that shows Usagi's true belief in love and justice and in how good her ability to lead is, since she cannot properly take care of her own family.

Neither is good at all when used as a benchmark as Usagi's ability to lead.

And that is besides my personal views of Crystal Tokyo.
Well, I think it depends on how much leeway one is willing to give her. I'm kinda iffy on the details but depending on how inolved Usagi is in governing. (And other things, how much is she using the crystal? Chibi-U tried to nick it and all went to hell, right? That could mean Usagi is working overtime on something with it.)

If she is heavily involved, and there is a outside threat, I can see her leave raising Chibi-U to tutors and her trusted Senshi. As most of the Senshi is rather busy in this scenario, that would give the bulk of it to Pluto. (She is after all mostly at the Time Gates.)
And the Outers was always the most ruthless, willing to sacrifise the few for the many.

And some times even a good parent doeesn't catch all things. I know of several people who had really good parents but they are still bad persons.
Chibi-Usa does eventually grow into her role as the Second Sailor Moon by Stars in the manga when she successfully leads her senshi against Galaxia. She matures at R and continually does so until the end of the manga as she ages. She's 12 by the end of the manga and loses the selfishness she had in the beginning.

The important thing you need to know about Chibi-Usa is despite the fact she's technically 900 she has the mind of a six year old and like most six year olds she doesn't think logically.

She was bullied and harassess by other kids for not being able to grow and said she wasn't the Queen's daughter because she was never seen with the Ginzuishou
So she took it as a way to prove herself which any six year old probably would have done.

Unfortunately for her Nemesis bombed CT just minutes later. it caused millions in Crystal Tokyo to die and for all she knew so did her mom. She had to walk by corpses and know it was her fault this happened. But wait there was a way to fix this if she went back into the past and the hero Sailor Moon fixed everything her mom and her people would be alive. In her mind her mom would probably hate her but she would be alive.

Brainwashing a family so she had a roof over her head doesn't seem that big a trade off to save her mother and her whole world especially to a six year old.

What are you going to be able to do?
Bad analogy. If President Kyon was elected, Haruhi would be one step behind him, nagging him. Disagree with him being the Prez? Have fun dealing with a PMSing universal power that's the Prez's friend and who makes you look more or less like a gnat.

That is also one reason why even if Usagi DOES disagree, there might well not be much she can do. Sure, humans themselves might be unable to oppose her. Then again, humans in fiction have this nasty talent in summoning eldritch horrors from beyond who eat people like Usagi for lunch... and if someone has a very convincing, universe-eating argument on his side for why she should GTFO, Usagi is between a rock and a hard place. She can either comply and renounce power, whether she wants to or not, or she can resist and get eaten.

It's a case of 'Pick the solution you hate the least, little Goddess'. While Usagi is powerful, she has shown even in the anime and manga she's NOT omnipotent. Her limits are very high, but are there. ANd when you aren't an omnipotent, SOMETHING will always exist that's higher on the food chain than you.

A major faction I could easily see emerging would be a Gaea-type given that in Sailor Moon they should know for a fact planet's and stars can be considered alive.
Hmmm, Mamoru would be fairly important to Crystal Tokyo in this situation. As I understand it he is linked with the planet in such a way that he could be considered the spirit of the Earth (Captain Power!).

What does it do to colonization when you have to ask the planet for permission to stay there? Heck, can you ask the Stars for permission to use their stellar highways?


Another interesting player in politics would be the religious groups. We know that the major nuts apparently fled to Nemesis. But just how is Usagi viewed by the various creeds? After all if you take a look at her somewhat sideways and consider her adventures, especially the battle against Chaos and then her going off to create Crystal Tokyo, I could easily see quite a few people coming to consider her the Second Coming...

On the plus side, most of the extremists with a negative view fled with the Dark Moon family. That does leave the distrustful, the undecided, the trusting and the worshipers. Some will feel that Usagi is just another piece of the plan their faith/religion professes. I imagine that the various creeds will likely be debating the Nature of Usagi for years amongst themselves and with each other.

IÆll bet you dollars to donuts that some æreligious leaderÆ will call themselves the voice of Usagi and try and wield influence that way.


Also I could easily see them, now that they know the souls truly do exist trying to figure out the mathematical formula for it. Which could have interesting consequences down the line.
Souls?! No, no, no. There is no such thing as SOULS. ThereÆs just a form of life energy we have yet to fully understand.

You know, you could easily set a story in Crystal Tokyo in which the main character is a scholar on one side of these debates, trying to find evidence to prove his theories and the road blocks (from religious groups, and/or elements within the scientific community) they faces.


Or Sailor Moon and friends aren't part of the government at all. They have simply collected compound interest over the last thousand years and bought all of Japan (or at least the whole bay are) to build their Crystal Tokyo spires for their families.
HereÆs a thought, world governments exist but they are in truth subordinate to the Megcorporations. Crytal Tokyo Inc. is the most beloved of all megacorps because they treat their employees like people instead of resources to be used and discarded. CT invests in people, places and technologies with the goal of creating a better future for all.

The other Megacorps feel they must be stopped.

So now Usagi and her board of directors (The senshi) must engage in corporate espionage and in some cases, open warfare to defend the lives and livelihoods of their employees and the bright future they are trying to build.

Oh and the Dark Moon familyàwas funded by one of the megacorps. CT Inc. espionage is still trying to figure out which one.

Edited. Which 3 races were you referring to?
The universe is vast, make up an race you wish.

Hmmm... you guys must have a much different definition of 'Benevolent' than myself. What you are describing is monstrous.

If she were to do any of those, even potentially, or be able to break any law without impunity or risk of consequences... then she cannot be considered a citizen of her realm, but a mere dictator (or spoiled brat), no matter the power. If she is elected, but can only step down if she wants to, that is no real election.

I don't care you made this law, you are subject to my whim, not me to yours...

And I still say Mamaru has no inherent 'right' to the planet... if he did, that makes 6 billion sqatters, and sets precedent for past dictators if they ever came back. Hitler... Stalin... others.

Brainwashing a family so she had a roof over her head doesn't seem that big a trade off to save her mother and her whole world especially to a six year old.
And who makes that determination... obviously not the family she did it to, since they don't remember.

In any case... I give up. I'm out of this thread.

Actually, Usagi's rule and eventually that of Chibi-Usa's would be subject to the whim of the 'People' and not any one person. I feel it's true that the minority should be listened to and their points considered. However, the vocal minority is, in some cases, trying to bully everyone else into doing what they want. I've seen people in the vocal minority working hard to push their own agendas when it comes to religious, military, social, and economic issues.

Now, it's possible that Chibi-Usa may never sit on the throne, if she doesnÆt have sufficient support from the people like her mother enjoyed. Though she has plenty of time to grow and mature into the kind of woman that could convince (Not purify, brainwash, mind wipe etc) the people of earth and her surrounding colonies that she is the one to guide humanity into an even brighter tomorrow.

Which would admittedly be an interesting start point for a story. Say Chibi-Usa tries to work out a new and better trade agreement with Jurai as the first step in repairing her damaged image with Humanity.

Also, if planet's have spirits people can chat with, then humanity is going to have to learn a little humility. No dropping rovers, landers, or colonies on planets and strutting about like we own the place. I'm sure Earth's been talking about us behind our backs with all the other worlds and stars in the universe so it might be in our best interest to treat her like gold.

Hmm, I really wonder what this does to terraforming...

Planet: "Ah! Humanity excellent." planet wobbles along its axis "Okay, take a little off the sides then let's see what we can do about moisturizing my surface and thickening those conifer forests on the southern continent."


In any case... I give up. I'm out of this thread.
Well I hope your time here was productive in some manner. Until the next thread sir.

A benevolent Crystal Tokyo seems impossible? Why should it be impossible?

Because there is a constitutional monarch? One who was voted into power by the world population (likely due to her saving them over and over again without being asked)? One who seems to have the best interests of humanity/the world at heart? One who has 'nigh infinite' magical power compared to the common man?

Remember, being the leader means you get all the power, yes. But you also get saddled with all the frikking paperwork.

Do recall what happened in Superman II movie, where General Zod took over the world. It's hideously boring, mind-numbingly boring. Or when Doctor Doom took over the world... guess what he did after he solved world hunger and poverty? He quit as there was no challenge, nothing to do after that.

So... yeah, NQS rules the world. Yeah, she solves problems like world hunger, poverty, and various bad stuff... and then? What happens after she fixes the world and has nothing else to do; beyond the paperwork to keep the govenment running.

I think that if allowed to retire, NQS would do so... the only problem is, and here's the kicker, people keep electing her back into power; because as a system; she works. She fixes problems, doesn't do stupid things like start wars (if you rule the world, who would you fight? And her good nature means she wouldn't start a war). And her conscience wouldn't allow her to run off from her job if the people keep asking her to stay. And she'll likely stay as long as she's asked to.

So.. I think what I'm trying to say is that the position of leadership isn't something someone like NQS would willingly seek. It would be something thrust upon her as a responsibility.

Which is the best way to run things; don't give power to those who seek it, but to those who do not desire it.

Also, Endymion as the 'spirit/avatar' of Earth should have some say in how the place is run... It's kind of like letting your landlord have some say in the place you're renting, right?

Endymion sighs as he holds his shivering wife in his arms. The cool night air wafts through a slightly open door to their veranda. ôShhhh, shhhàö he whispers as she calms down ôWhatÆs wrong.ö

Big blue eyes under a waterfall of silken hair stare sadly into his own. ôI had that dream again.ö

The king of Crystal Tokyo sighs, placing a kiss on his beloveds lips ôThe one where you try to retire and a mob of people rise up and drag you kicking and screaming back to the throne?ö

A choked sob is her only reply


It's kind of like letting your landlord have some say in the place you're renting, right?
Endymion shakes his head as he stares out at the assembled business representatives, city planners and other groups interested in exploità.using earths rejuvenated landscape. ôIÆve said this before but I shall say it one again.ö He draws himself up to his full height and partial turns to gesture at a map of earth. ôAll these lands are yoursàEXCEPTàAfrica.ö He glares out at the assembled men and women, most of whom shrink from his gaze. ôAttempt no mining, drilling, clear cutting or anything else without my express permission and oversight.ö

His gestured to a place in Africa where the words æCradle of LifeÆ had been scrawled. ôThis is totally off limits.ö

He turned to face the crowd, hands wrapping tightly around the railing. ôUse these lands together, use them in peace.ö He stares at them, raises a lone hand and snaps his fingers. Without warning a massive black monolith, with perfect proportions, bursts from the ground behind the crowd to the sounds of shouts and surprised cries. ôOtherwiseà.I may have to begin the eviction processà.ö

Was that a Well of Souls reference you just did there? Or was that a 2001 A Space Odyssey reference. :ph43r:

She is 6 . She's a child who like most rarely looks at the consequences of her actions. You are treating her as though she is a rational adult.

You may disagree with it. But SMverse clearly gives Mamoru rights it's canon in the manga because he's earth in living form. He just like every other senshi have rights over their planets/Stars/asteroids. Technically earth does hold 6 billion squatters it's just how SMverse works.

A planet can continue living as long as it's senshi survives in the end no one else matters more then their senshi. You may say that Mamoru has no right but Word of God and the manga says he does. So you really can't do anything about that. Unlike Hitler and Stalin he is basically the voice of the planet and when you hurt it you hurt him and viceversa.

Quoted for emphasis. Seriously, people, don't you know what six-year-olds are like?!

Slightly off-topic, but this thread reminds me of the conversations I had about the Silver Millenium while cosplaying as the Doctor at Starfest 2009. I spoke with some Sailor Moon cosplayers about their kingdom, even met a Sailor Pluto who was all too happy to get into character and discuss time travel and alternate timelines.

Most of the conversation was in me "clearing up" some things about the Senshi's previous incarnations, which I "knew" from some trips back then, and sharing some "spoilers", at least about alternate timelines where things went terribly wrong with Crystal Tokyo and the New Silver Millenium. I suggested that most humans would simply want to live how they wish to live, and that as long as Crystal Tokyo stayed out of their way, then there wouldn't be any major problems on that end. I also told her that it wasn't going to be easy, serving as Queen of the Solar System. Many challenges would face her, and I couldn't say anything because some events just had to happen-Fixed in spacetime. But, I did tell her that in the end, she would be happy if she worked at it.

Sailor Pluto got annoyed with me, and we kind of got into an argument about what constituted a spoiler. I told her that it was her very nature as a Watcher of Time that made her like this-Mostly watching, but almost never being able to move through the screen to interact. She said my problem was that my nature was to get involved and not always know all of the consequences, even as a Time Lord. We eventually agreed that we both had it rough, and I jokingly suggested we're already snogging in another universe.

She just smiled and said she had a boyfriend before walking away.

Right, sorry, just had to get that out. Anyway! The topic. I think there are plenty of great ideas that allow for the development of a fantastic story and Ordo should get right on it.

I've never understood why everyone's got such a "GRR! RAGE!" against CT. It might be that I'm biased because I've got dual-citizenship (UK/NZ), but I like the idea of a constitutional monarchy. It's a relatively stable system of governance, with a proper series of checks and balances provided by a Westminster-style elected body.

I always imagine that NQS is more like Queen Elizabeth II; a much loved and respected leader, but one who knows her role is to set a good example for her people, and so generally stays aloof of the messy business of politics unless she absolutely has to.

And besides, I was also under the impression that Crystal Tokyo was an alternative timeline, one that never came to pass, or something?

CT passes. Manga ends with the Crystal Palace in the background for Usagi and Mamoru's wedding and Chibi-Usa's conception It's Sailor Cosmos' war with Sailor Chaos that's in a alternate timeline.

Well, it's due to fanon interpretations of how CT comes about, and the natural disinclination of most people to trust being ruled over by someone with nothing to hold back their power but themselves. When people have a choice, they usually opt for being able to choose who rules them. But in the case of CT, it seems that you have only two choices-Be with the Queen or against the Queen. That's it. No matter how benevolent, it's human nature to be afraid that someone wielding that much power could be corrupted, and in this case almost nothing would be able to stop her if she became a tyrant.

True, but we're also operating on incomplete information. All we know is that Neo-Queen Serenity and King Endymon rule Crystal Tokyo. We know nothing more than that. We don't know if they're absolute rulers, or if they're a part of (like I suggested earlier) a Constitutional Monarchy.

True. This fic is thus a very good chance to explore and flesh out Crystal Tokyo.

... And as I read it through, it's kind of eerie how similar it is to my conversations with the Senshi while in costume. I guess that's the Hivemind for you. ^_^

I do totally think the Doctor could take the Silver Millenium on though... And win (I told the Sailor Moon cosplayer that if I had to, I could stop her and every one of her soldiers, even without my screwdriver. She was not amused).

Which is part of what makes Sailor Moon fanon so annoying. It is flat stated in the manga that Usagi was elected to her position by the population of the world. Which does include more then just Tokyo despite what fannon tends to claim. I'd also point out that Usagi despite having the chance to recreate the Silver Millennium at the end of the Dark Kingdom Arc choose NOT to do so. She just isn't the type of person to rule over the Earth unless it's done by the free will of the people living their.

Also there's no reason for people who don't like the system have to stay on Earth. And Usagi frankly isn't the type of person who's going to chase down anyone who leaves simply to make them bow to her as Nemesis showed. The Canon version NOT the fanon version.

Another major canon point that I think people are missing is tha not only has Usagi been SHOWN to have both grown into a fairly good leader as the manga progressed but she is also supposed quite charismatic and spiritually pure. People seem to be drawn to her and can't help but like her.
