:> The subject says it all. Anyone know why Sailor Moon's Tiara stopped
:> working?
Energy drain. It is like any magical item... well some of them anyways. Some
magical items can only last for so long or be used so many times.

Well, let's see if I can explain this a little better.
The primary cause of her tiara failing is that her desire to be Sailor
Moon has faded (her desire to be Sailor Moon had diminished). This loss
in desire comes from the final battle with Beryl. (In the original
episode, she says that she only wants to be a normal teenager).
Eventually, not only her tiara fails, but her transformation fails.
That's when she gets a new transformation (her desire returns because she
wants to save her friends) and the sceptre.

If you got a better "power up" attack in a video game, would you go
back to your older, weaker, more old-fashioned attack?

In the "Sailor Moon S" movie they did just that. They used their
original attacks in their first encounter with the Snow Dancers and then
used their powered up attacks in their final confrontation.

Yeah, thats the way it was in Episode 52 (Hanami).
But the loss of her power in episode 90 (the first Sailor Moon S
episode) was infinitely more shocking. Whew...

I do like the answer about her no longer wanting to be a sailor scout...
hence her Tiara pooped out... except that when she wanted to help her
friends, it should have worked again. Maybe it had run out of juice (yep,
the supervolt theory has merit)
I guess you guys don't have an official answer then? OH well... More
arguing about it then. :)

Uh oh, I see a new commercial comming on.
[Energizer Bunny being confronted by Sailor Moon]
SM: Hold it right there Nega-Bunny Sleaze. I am Sailor Moon, champion of
love and justice and on behalf of everyone opposed to annoying, tacky
television commercials I will punish YOU!
Luna: (Looking down, giant sweat bead over head) If only she saw the
commercials for the Sailor Moon dolls she wouldn't be so cocky.
Energizer Bunny: Boom... boom... boom... boom.....
SM: Mooooooon Tiaraaaaaa MAAAAAAAGIC!
[Stock footage of tiara dance. Tiara flies through the air, sputters and
falls to the ground. Close up of Supervolt battery]
SM: Owwhh!! What gives? Why do these things always happen to me. I know I
put in a fresh set of batteries. I'll bet Sammy was using them to play
his Gameboy. It's not fair. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Luna: I wonder if it's too late to be cast for the second Samurai Pizza
Cats series?
EB: Boom... boom.... boom.... boom.....
