* BrokenAesop: Sometimes the morals in the anime don't fit the events of the plot.
** The 'fat' episode has guys say they like slim girls. The Aesop is there's more to attraction than looks, but the love angels themselves still crush over Yanagiba based on his handsome appearance. In the same episode it's played with, as the guy in the episode's couple broke up with the girl not because she was magically fat but because she ruined the hard work she put into athletics.

* SeinfeldIsUnfunny: Other than the usual "[[TheyCopiedItSoItSucks Sailor Moon ripoff]]" argument, the series is often said to be a fairly cookie-cutter FollowTheLeader magical girl show. While it wasn't the first to use most of the tropes in it, it was in fact the TropeCodifier for certain elements of the genre, such as the PinkHeroine being the lead magical girl.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: As mentioned multiple times on this page, people tend to get turned off from the series purely on the account of the fact it's heavily wedding-themed, the girls often dream of weddings and chasing after boys, and one of the MagicalGirl forms is a wedding dress, because [[WidgetSeries it sounds weird]].

** For various reasons (among them being heavier emphasis on gender roles and a general promotion of femininity for girls), dreaming about getting married and a love for wedding dresses isn't uncommon among young girls in Japan, and the series is marketed with this demographic in mind. This is more in terms of its AudienceAlienatingPremise, as people who actually manage to watch the series itself have noted that its actual writing is more respectful about the concept of romance and marriage than it seems at first.

** While ''Sailor Moon'' was certainly iconic and incredibly popular in Japan, it still happens to be one among an entire genre of MagicalGirl shows, all of which share similar tropes and visual elements; on top of that, Japanese MagicalGirl fans are familiar with Sukehiro Tomita's role in founding the MagicalGirlWarrior genre as a whole and can more easily recognize this to be another one of his pet projects. However, in the West, due to most of said shows [[NoExportForYou never making it across]], ''Sailor Moon'' is put on a pedestal as it's considered synonymous with the genre or even anime as a whole, and so the fact that this anime has more similar elements to it than most makes it seem more like a ripoff.

** It never aired on a TV network there (with the exception of Italy and Germany), meaning it never managed to reach the target demographic in the first place, so even after it was picked up by Creator/ADVFilms the only people who were willing to look into it were adult anime fans who would be less likely to be interested in this kind of series and don't have the perspective of people who watched it as part of the intended audience.

Added DiffLines:

** Tomita himself outright referred to this when starting production for its SpiritualSequel ''Wedding Apple'', stating in an interview that the original series was made to explore the concept of love and marriage in a way understandable to children in the mid-nineties and that he wanted to revisit the concept to reflect societal changes such as LGBTQ+ romance, divorce stigma, and women who don't even want to get married in the first place.

** Westerners might also question why a preference for physical violence and activity makes Hinagiku considered so masculine that she's [[NoGuyWantsAnAmazon in danger of not being able to get a boyfriend]] considering that she still indulges in and enjoys dressing femininely, fangirls over cute boys, and is a fairly sensitive and emotional person. Other than some things LostInTranslation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1mhssA54aA uses an almost exclusively masculine speech pattern and [[UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns a hyper-masculine first-person pronoun]]), heavier pressures on gender roles in Japan mean that Hinagiku's aggressive personality and hobbies would make her come off as unusually masculine. There's also temporal values dissonance at play here, too; characters like Hinagiku were not as common in Japanese media during the time of the series' run, and since then other works would produce far more stereotypically masculine female characters treated with less stigma.

Armor Piercing Slap is no longer a trope


* JerkassWoobie: Salvia during her intro, who refused to believe that Devils can before reformed, despite Wedding Peach doing it once per episode, and even insulted both Jama-P, for being a reformed Devil, and Limone, because she believe he was a weak coward. Even Jama-P said that she was worse than any Devil that he ever knew. When Peach finally [[ArmorPiercingSlap slaps some sense into her]], she reveals that [[spoiler:her best friend was killed by a Devil during the war, and she was so shocked by her death that she closed her heart to everyone to keep herself from getting hurt like that again]]. Good thing she has the other Love Angels to mellow her out. In the manga, she is so anti-Devil because [[spoiler:she remembers her past life and that she, Yuri, and Hinagiku were all killed because Celestia decided to show Uragano mercy and he used the opportunity to get in a cheap shot,]] making her believe any good devils show was just them biding their time to do evil.
