So there are a LOT of things I really love about the SilMil dream sequences. They’re beautiful and romantic and *rambles ane cries forever*

BUT. I think storywise their existance does a lot.

First, how cute is it that Usagi admires herself? I really love the message there. See that beautiful beautiful princess? THAT’S YOU. That’s always been the case in Sailor Moon, even clumsy crybaby Usagi could ALWAYS be the princess, but I just feel a certain way about her explicitly thinking this. 

I also love that it puts the possibility of remembering in early. She’s not an entirely random girl who has a past life thrust upon her; when she finds out it won’t be a complete shock. There’s residue from her past life. Learning about it will make everything make sense for Usagi.

I’m strangely excited to find out just how Serentiy died in this version, because that will put the dream in a different light depending. If she killed herself over Endymion, these will get a lot sadder, because even with all that tragedy she still managed to project these moments of happiness to her next life.
