And, dammit, it fits the Sailor Moon storyline pretty good too.

Ah, but my mad genius knows absolutely nothing about the Senshi
except a vague idea of their powers and purpose and a pretty good
idea what they look like.  It's a lot funnier
having Cyber-Moon with Sylia's personality, and since Sailor Moon
appears to fill a leadership role and Mercury is the weakest
combatant with information gathering abilities...  Imagine the

Heh.  I'd argue Mercury is not the weakest, simply because she's the
smartest and knows how to use her powers more effectively than say

Yes, she is the smartest.  No, she doesn't know how to use her
powers more effectively.  Like Nene, Mercury is great at analysing
an opponents weak spot, but relatively poor at personally exploiting
it.  Note incidentally, that since the Cybers will be brought
into existence during the year when Sailor Moon vanishes, the Sailors
would have the power levels they had during the Ail and Ann (Alien)
storyline.  Even in the Black Moon storyline, Mercury was still
the weakest combatant just because unlike all the others, she doesn't
know how to hit people.  Mercury's a utility character, indispensable
for team victory, but dead meat on her own.  

Jupiter, who just smashes her way through obstacles.  Thus, Mercury beats
Tux boy in a fight, while Jupiter can't.

Jupiter probably can, and Mercury probably couldn't.


contrast when Cyber-Moon meets Sailor Moon!  Still, I suppose that
Sylvie would fit rather well with Venus' love motif.

Sailor Moon:  "I am the beautiful sailor-suited warrior, Sailor Moon,
and on behalf of the Moon, I will--ack!"
Cyber Moon, holding Sailor Moon by the throat:  "Talk too much."

But Sylia wouldn't do that.  She'd just ignore her.  Priss might get fed
up and do that, but that would be different :)

In that particular case, Sailor Moon is about to blast Cyber Moon
for being an imposter.
