It’s pretty obvious where Sunrise got that idea of how the Rainbow Pearls were created. Then again, it doesn’t qualify as an idea.
Trashahime: a Sailor Moon RIP-OFF?
Katsuyuki Sumisawa aka Lolisawa recycled a lot of stuff for his dumb what if, and not only from Inuyasha, but also the first anime version of Sailor Moon in which he was involved. I already posted how the idea of the Rainbow Pearls came from the Rainbow Crystals of Sailor Moon: https://kohakuxrin.tumblr.com/post/644276285183557632/its-pretty-obvious-where-sunrise-got-that-idea-of In Sailor Moon, the Silver Crystal was split into the seven Rainbow Crystals so as to seal away Seven Great Yōma. And in episode 34, as Sailor Moon began to cry for her lover Tuxedo Mask who was mortally wounded, her tear made the seven Rainbow Crystals react and merge into one, forming the Silver Crystal itself. In Trashahime, upon learning the death of Toga whom she was fond of, she shed a tear onto the Sacred Jewel which created the seven rainbow pearls. And the fact that he was involved in Episode 34 further proves that this is where he got the idea (then again it doesn’t qualify as an idea).
And it seems it’s not the only thing he recycled.
The idea of the Windmill of Time seems to be from the Space-Time Door which is seen in episode 82 (Sailor Moon R Episode 36), in which Lolisawa was also involved.
And since he was involved in Sailor Moon, he obviously had to know the whole story, therefore Akuru, his pinwheel, and Kirinmaru’s ambition could also be based on Sailor Moon R. As far as I know, it’s Sailor Pluto who guards the Space-Time Door and uses her rod to open the gate to go to the future, but Chibiusa who was chased by villains also holds a key that allows her to go to the Space-Time Door and used it to bring the sailor warriors with her to the future to save it. So technically, Akuru would be like Chibiusa, and Kirinmaru had Sesshomaru as his lackey to hunt for him for the pinwheel which is Chibiusa’s key and Pluto’s rod, just like Wiseman had minions hunt for Chibiusa (although it's because she could be an hindrance to his plan), and is the one traveling to the future to save it but also for whatever vile ambition he has (first it was “he attempts to twist time, swallow the world into the degenerate age and return it to nothingness” but then “By destroying the Grim Comet in the future will prove that I am the strongest. Demons will tremble in fear of me, and humans will worship me!”, it’s so confusing). If anyone who’s very familiar with the first anime version of Sailor Moon and had the guts to watch Trashahime could confirm those similarities, and perhaps if some other stuff were recycled from Sailor Moon...
So far:
