Trivia

• This was the first time the short story was brought to stage, although it had a previous anime adaptation in the Sailor Moon S movie.

• This adaption of the story did not include Artemis, although he was mentioned and briefly shown as a shadow, and added Hotaru.

• While the original story included Usagi and her friends celebrating a joint birthday party for Minako and Makoto, the party in the musical was held for Minako, Makoto, and Setsuna, whose birthday falls between theirs.

• This was the first time Luna appeared in human form in the musicals, as her previous appearances in Sailor Moon - Gaiden Dark Kingdom Fukkatsu Hen and its revision was her cat form, and in Nogizaka46 Version Musical she appeared as a puppet.
