  • "Moonlight Legend" was first performed by DALI as the opening theme for the first two series in the anime, and then by Moon Lips for the third and fourth. The song was then replaced by the "Sailor Star Song" for the fifth season's opening, but "Moonlight Legend" returned as the ending for the 200th episode. "Moonlight Legend" has been covered and remixed many times by artists such as the punk supergroup Osaka Popstar, and other Japanese singers like Kitade Nana and Tsuji Nozomi, along with popular voice actors like Megumi Ogata, the voice actress of Haruka Tenou/Sailor Uranus. It is believed that the song's melody was inspired by "さよならはダンスの後に" (Sayonara wa Dance no Ato ni, "Goodbye at the End of the Dance"), a cha-cha ballad sung by Chieko Baisho in 1965. It has also been noted that the song's melody sounds similar to "想い出の九十九里浜" (Omoide-no Kujūkuri-hama, "Memories of Kujūkuri Beach"), the first single from J-Pop group Mi-Ke. The single was released in 1991, one year before "Moonlight Legend" was released. The song has been translated and sung into many other languages, with several of them being used for other language dubs of the anime, such as the Filipino dub where it was sung by veteran singer and actress, Angelika Dela Cruz. The 90's English dub's intro, however, uses the same melody with different lyrics.
