Trivia
- There was no monster-of-the-day.
- Saphir and the Ayakashi Sisters were seen for the last time.
- Wiseman’s real name, Death Phantom, is mentioned.
- In the English version (“Brotherly Love”), Death Phantom was called “Doom Phantom”, and Saphir/Sapphire’s death was edited. The final scene involving the Ayakashi Sisters was also trimmed down to only show Petz/Prizma.
- Chibiusa’s teacup had a drawing of a rabbit head next to the word “Chibi”. Her name is a combination of “chibi” (meaning “small”, “childlike” or “runt”) and “usa” of “usagi” (meaning “rabbit”).
