The SM Queens can't kill enemies?

[serefan]

Seems like I definitely will be one of the members who gets advantage of the forum to ask questions. ;D

But seriously, do you think it's true? That the Queens in Sailor Moon, or may be just the ones of the Silver Millenium, can't actually kill their enemies, unlike the moon senshi? I mention this because I had been wondering one again, for a long time, the reasons why Neo Queen Serenity didn't kill Death Phantom/Wiseman when she first fought him. She said something about him being too strong or she not keeping a strong heart and her not being able to fight as a sailor soldier... but how come she was still able to capture him and send him to Nemesis?

Suddenly it hit me how Queen Serenity didn't kill her enemies either: both Metallia and Neherenia weren't killed, just sealed. Was it because Queen Serenity didn't have the power to kill them, or just that she knew that she shouldn't? ...Them being her brothers and sisters from the Galaxy Cauldron yadayadayada?

Well, I think its because Sailor Moon is royalty, that she can't kill the enemy, just seal them. I remember reading somewhere that back in the Moon Kingdom, Sailor Venus is the leader of the senshi and that their job is to protect the Princess. Despite the fact that Sailor Moon possess the strongest crystal in the galaxy or universe doesn't mean she was born to fight. This is how I see it, Royalty on the Moon Kingdom watch over Earth and possess the crystal, if evil comes and try to destroy everything and the senshi failed to protect, then Royalty will step in and use the crystal's power to seal away the evil. The royalty is like the last resort, however, they are not born to fight. I guess thats why they can't kill straight away.

Good question serefan, I guess I always assuemed that enemies weren't killed because Queen and Neo Queen Serenity wanted to give them a second chance or something. I really like the idea that it's because they were all born from the Gallaxy Cauldron, also Sailor Eris's that royalty weren't born to fight.

I guess maybe the senshi are supposed to fight for Neo Queen Serenity, but what about Queen Serenity? I would have thought since she only has Silver Crystal, and not a team of senshi, she would have to be able to kill.
