9	Rei is at her wit's end when her lecherous grandfather comes up with the cockamamie scheme of creating a woman-only fitness program. It gets worse as Koan infiltrates the new program with the intention of contaminating the program's shrine hall, which would one day become a Crystal Point.
10	----
11	!! Tropes in this episode include:
12	* TenMinuteRetirement: Grandpa decides to quit being a Shinto Priest so he can pursue a profession where he won't be chastised for his perversions. He goes back to being a priest after this.
13	* AndThisIsFor: Mars creates her new attack against Koan for hurting her Grandpa.
14	* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Grandpa Hino gets his wish of being in the company of beautiful ladies who want his attention. He soon regrets it when the ladies become hyper-violent and decide to target him.
15	* BeamOWar: Sailor Mars and Koan use their respective fire attacks against each other.
16	* TheBrute: Dumbell specializes in physical attacks.
17	* CallingYourAttacks: Koan orders Dumbell to attack Grandpa by calling out various wrestling moves.
18	* ChickMagnet: Yuuichirou, being the rugged prince that he is, manages to convince a legion of young women to join his master's fitness program.
19	* ClothingDamage: Koan runs away in a panic after her skirt bursts into flames by "Burning Mandala".
20	* ComedicSpanking: Usagi does this to Chibi-usa as punishment for waking her up just to steal the Silver Crystal.
21	* DubInducedPlotlineChange: In the original and Viz Dub, the magazine warns readers that the Hikawa Shrine harbors a creepy old man who sexually harasses girls. In the [=DiC=] dub, the focus was on Grandpa's martial arts ad being too big.
22	* DubNameChange: Sailor Mars' new technique "Burning Mandala" becomes "Mars Celestial Fire Surround" in the [=DiC=] version.
23	* EveryoneHasStandards: Zigzagged. As horny as he is, Grandpa isn't keen on allowing a little girl like Chibi-usa sign up for his scam. That said, he was interested in targeting ''teenage'' girls.
24	* FantasticFightingStyle: The old man creates a new sport that combines self defense fighting and beauty workouts.
25	* HatePlague: The more Dumbell's body slams the women onto the area, the more they become infused with Dark Power that turns them violent and aggressive.
26	* HereWeGoAgain: Grandpa still pursues a fitness program, only now it's a family friendly dance class between him, Yuuichirou and Chibi-usa.
27	* LaserGuidedKarma: Grandpa's perverted antics result in a magazine warning readers to stay away from him and his shrine.
28	* MeanBoss: Grandpa happily replaces Yuuichirou with Koan as his new vice-coach.
29	* NewSuperpower: Sailor Mars unlocks a new technique called "Burning Mandala". This allows her to create eight rings of fire to attack her enemies.
30	* PetTheDog: When the fighting's done, Tuxedo Mask again gives Sailor Moon the cold shoulder, leaving her crushed. Sailor Mars comforts her, pointing out the guy obviously still cares because he keeps showing up to help her.
31	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Chibi-usa decides to quit Protection Aesthetics when she sees how violent the activities are.
32	* SkewedPriorities: Koan isn't even phased when Dumbell is destroyed by Sailor Moon. She only decides to attack after realizing that her skin complexion was tarnished by Sailor Moon's attack.
33	* TakingTheBullet: Rei shows up to take some devastating blows from Dumbell to protect her idiot grandfather.
34	* TomTheDarkLord: In the DIC dub, Dumbell’s DubNameChange is “Rhonda”.
35	* WhatTheHellHero: Rei chastises her grandfather for tossing aside Yuuichirou despite his seniority and loyalty. She would also chew him out throughout the episode for his hare-brained scheme that will eventually backfire on him.
36	* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Koan's Droid Dumbell resembles and attacks like a professional wrestler. She even carries a championship belt with her red jewel in the middle.
37	* YouAreInCommandNow: Realizing that he'll never get any women as long as he's a priest, Grandpa gives control of the Hikawa Shrine to his granddaughter.
38	* YouMonster: Rei calls Koan and her Droid monsters for hurting her grandpa.
