Mercury Power, Make Up was the first command used by Ami Mizuno to transform into Sailor Mercury in both the anime and manga, and the only command she used in Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon.
Anime
First, Ami held up her transformation pen. She then swept the pen over her head and around her body while a stream of blue water emitted from it, forming her leotard, gloves, and boots. A sparkling ripple expanded over her body, a small burst of mist formed the rest of her sailor fuku, and Sailor Mercury finished in her final pose.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon
Mercury Power, Make Up in PGSM |
As Ami called out the command, her Jewelry Star Bracelet changed from its smaller, sealed form into its full form, and the gems began to glow. She crossed her arms and her fingernails turned blue, then she swept one arm over her head and her hair turned short and blue, and her leotard appeared. Then she rotated as glowing blue rings and a spiral of bubbly, blue water moved up her body. She held up her arms and white ribbons formed her gloves, and as she swept her hands over her legs her boots appeared. She then swept an arm around her body, her movement trailed by a stream of bubbles, as the rest of her sailor fuku appeared. She slowly moved into her finishing pose, her tiara appearing as her hand passed her forehead, and ended in her final pose as water splashed behind her.
Notes
The phrase's first use in manga Act 3 was limited to "Mercury Power," but this was later expanded to "Mercury Power, Make Up" in Act 10.
