Quote:Yes, but there's a little more to it than that, which it isn't clear to me whether or not you noticed.
I presume you're referring to the "naked whirly light show" as a training aid, a motivation to learn to change faster?
The basic idea, which Mark tells me he got from Kenko, is that it is actually the "dance" which brings on the transformation - all the transformation item, phrase and whirly lightshow do is send the transformee though the necessary motions automatically, like a magical puppet; if she is capable of remembering the motions and executing them independently, then she can transform without all of those accoutrements.
The flaw in this is that it does not appear to allow for times when the Senshi transform faster than normal, nor for things like ChibiUsa's transformation - but it's still the most original take on the whole notion which I've seen in my entire time reading fanfiction, and I thought it might be worth considering even if you don't end up using it.
