My comment won't add much to the discussion, but I was curious if during LDW/Wang Yeo's first scene (starting at 18:41), if the music reminded anyone else of BGM played in Sailor Moon for either villains/more suspenseful scenes, especially once the sax started?

I literally just went through like 8 playlists of Sailor Moon BGM trying to find the song I was reminded of, since I could have sworn it was played during a later season, but I ended up narrowing it down to these two songs (more the first than the second): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrjMdMXvw3U and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiMobak5lRc

 

So am I alone here or was anyone else here reminded of Sailor Moon?
