!!Tropes:
* AmazonBrigade: Obviously. But emphasized in the opening song with the line "We are not helpless girls/Who need men's protection".
* ArtShiftedSequel: Not only due to improvements in technology allowing better animation than 1992, as a result of deliberate effort to more closely resemble the manga. All the characters look taller and thinner than their 1990s anime versions.
* ConspicuousCG: The cel-shaded 3D animation of beginng and end of the OP and the TransformationSequence stands out from the rest of the animation.
* TheMerch: A new wave of merchandise is to be expected, but of particular note is merchandisers' active exploitation of MultipleDemographicAppeal. Bandai courts adult women, selling ''Crystal''-branded Swarovski crystal "tiara rings" at over ''[[http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2014/07/04/sailor-soldier-tiara-ring-first-accessory-from-sailor-moon-crystal a hundred dollars]]'' a pop.

* RoleReprisal: ''Crystal'' sees the return of Creator/KotonoMitsuishi, the original Japanese voice actress of Usagi/Sailor Moon. Notably, she's the only one of the original senshi actresses to return, the Inners are given new voices.
* SettingUpdate: The series use more modern technology fitting for the era it's airing in.
* TheTeaser: Unlike the old anime, which had exposition or recaps before the opening, or just started immediately with the opening, this one follows the more modern practice of a cold open with a story hook.
* TruerToTheText: The storyline is said to be more closely based on the original manga than the 1992 anime and the [[Series/PrettyGuardianSailorMoon live action show]].
