Ep 22. The Purity Chalice

The episode "The Purity Chalice" is the 22nd episode of the third season of the popular anime series, Sailor Moon. This episode is centered around the titular character, Sailor Moon, and her search for the Purity Chalice.

At the start of the episode, Sailor Moon and her allies are trying to uncover the location of the Purity Chalice, a powerful artifact that could tip the balance of power in their favor. The chalice is said to be able to grant any wish, so it is highly sought after by both their allies and enemies.

Meanwhile, the villainous Mistress 9 has been tasked with finding the Purity Chalice by her leader, Pharaoh 90. The two are determined to use the chalice to bring about the end of the world, so it is crucial that Sailor Moon and her friends find the artifact before they do.

As the search for the chalice continues, Sailor Moon finds herself faced with a tough decision. She must choose between her role as a Sailor Scout and her desire to save her friend, Hotaru. Hotaru is the daughter of Sailor Saturn, one of the other Sailor Scouts, and is also the current host of Mistress 9.

Sailor Moon knows that if she continues her quest for the Purity Chalice, it could end up putting Hotaru and the rest of the world in danger. However, if she doesn't find the chalice, their enemies could use it to achieve their evil goals.

Sailor Moon eventually decides to go ahead with the search, but first, she must gather all of the Sailor Scouts together so that they can fight the villains as a team. The Sailor Scouts are all trained fighters and each has her own unique powers. In order to defeat their enemies and find the Purity Chalice, they will need to work together and pool their resources.

After a series of tough battles, the Sailor Scouts finally manage to find the Purity Chalice. However, their victory is short-lived when Hotaru suddenly transforms into Sailor Saturn and undergoes a painful transformation. Sailor Saturn has the power to destroy entire worlds, but in doing so, she will also destroy herself.

Sailor Moon is torn between trying to save her friend and preventing the end of the world. In the end, she decides to take a risk and entrust the Purity Chalice to Hotaru/Sailor Saturn. This decision proves to be the right one when the Purity Chalice allows Hotaru to harness her power without destroying herself or the world.
