Feel free to correct me if there´s something wrong or missing.

Yes, why?
Nephrite presumes that the black crystal reacts on love, but why? Wasn't it summoned to find the silver crystal? And why does it only work "properly" after Beryl altered it ...somehow? And why hasn't she done that before? And w- okay, I know you can ask tons of questions like that about Sailor Moon, and the ultimate answer is always "because script says so". But still, harumph.

Perhaps it reacts on love because the silver crystal is also something based on love and joy and goodness ...? But then, anime-silver crystal is splitted in seven parts, every piece in the heart of a former demon. Where is the love-connection here? Gosh, I think I should just stop to speculate here. Perhaps the crystal was simply a romantic and wanted to play magic matchmaker with Nephrite and Naru.

Despite everything written above, since I watched season 1 of Sailor Moon for the first time around 1997 (GAAAH!), the four generals became one of my bullet proof weaknesses. None of the following SM villains could quite reach up to their charme for me.
Nephrite takes my first place amongst the four guys. And his relationship with Naru ... it's dysfunctional, silly, stupid, kinky, dangerous - but eventually very touching and endearing as well. What a mixture!

The fandom for the villains of the first season is imho not very big, despite Sailor Moon's huge popularity in general. I was surprised and delighted to see that a talented professional artist like Tata (slime, slime) has a big heart for the four boys and their queen and draws continually gorgeous fanart. This contest entry is a little tribute to the fan joy she gave me and others by showing her pictures here.
