History Main / SailorSenshiSendUp

* ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'' is heavily derivative of the Sailor Senshi in its original five girl line-up:

''Manga/SailorMoon'' is a manga series widely regarded as one of the defining {{Shoujo}} series of TheNineties. Not only did it kickstart its [[Franchise/SailorMoon own multimedia franchise]], but it also codified several MagicalGirlWarrior and {{Shoujo}} tropes[[note]]''Sailor Moon'' itself was heavily influenced in this by ''Manga/CutieHoney'', although it had the advantage of reaching much farther due to its crowd-friendlier nature.[[note]] and thus largely remains in the public consciousness. As a result, there are quite a few characters that reference, homage, or parody its main cast, the Sailor Senshi, especially its protagonist, Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon.

** Bloom/Usagi: Long-lost princesses with InnocentBlueEyes from a magical world sent to Earth by relative who sacrificed their life to save them. Both girls also have the strongest powers but were also the most inexperienced with their powers and battles until they TookALevelInBadass. Bloom also has a sort of ForbiddenRomance with a prince from another kingdom much like Usagi had in her past life with Prince Endymion. Possibly {{lampshaded}} in the fifth season where her bonded Selkie is named "Serena".

** Flora/Makoto: Both are the TeamMom, brown hair and green eyes, have a strong connection to plants and nature, and even a pink and green aesthetic. WesternAnimation/WorldOfWinx even makes her a chef out of nowhere.

** Aisha could be a combination of all the Outer Senshi: being an independent and sporty TomboyPrincess like Haruka, having [[MakingASplash water-based powers]] and green, turquoise and blue ColorMotifs and like Michiru, being the one with the darkest skin and initially having a lonely life prior to meeting the other girls like Setsuna, and being the SixthRanger like Hotaru. She also initially isolated herself from the group in their earlier moments, much like the Outer Senshi (particularly Haruka and Michiru) being [[IneffectualLoner Ineffectual Loners]].

** Musa/Rei: Dead mother, bad relationship with father. The sardonic one with a flair for red and purple. Both girls also [[LongHairIsFeminine long, flowing]] ([[ExpositoryHairstyleChange Musa grows her hair out in season 3]]), [[RavenHairIvorySkin raven-colored hair and pale skin]], with the eyes matching the blue/purple shine of their hair. The '90s anime also famously made Rei a singer.

** Stella/Minako: Blonde GenkiGirl princess in orange costume with light-based powers. Furthering the reference, they are even the first magical girls introduced in the series.
** Tecna/Ami: Princess with technology powers with short hair of an unnatural color.

** Musa/Rei: Dead mother, bad relationship with father. The sardonic one with a flair for red. The '90s anime also famously made Rei a singer.

* ''Series/YoKaiWatch'' has "Sailor Cuties", a space-themed magical girl series that is a cross between ''Sailor Moon'' and ''Franchise/PrettyCure''. Hailey Anne is a major fan of the show, and her trying to get a rare figurine of the show is what kickstarts the plot of the third season.

* ''VisualNovel/LifeAfterMagic'' is about a group of retired Magical Girls called the Sentinels Of Justice. Most of whom have space-themed names like Sentinel Starlight and Sentinel Sol. The protagonist even has a MentorMascot cat similar to ''Sailir Moon'''s Luna.

** As another blonde supergirl destined to save humanity, Buffy gets compared to Usagi quite a bit. As more charitable fans might note, Buffy actually resembles Minako as the tragic CoolLoser forced to lose her friends and is even destined, in some sense, to kill the man she loves, all thanks to her predestined duty.

* Marucho's Bakugan Elfin of ''Manga/{{Bakugan}}''. She visually evokes Usagi in appearance (she is blonde, wears a hairstyle resembling a frog head, but whose "eyes" correspond to Usagi's buns, and with long finlike appendages that correspond to Usagi's long pigtails). She has a long, magical girl-like TransformationSequence, and strikes the InTheNameOfTheMoon pose.
