The synching of the music to the video is so uncanny it HAS to be an homage of some sort, it's the bit with the fire racing up the legs with fragments of clothing in the place where feathers or the like usually appear.
Does it synch up with She-Ra? Whose transformation sequence has to have been an influence on Sailor Moon.
Actually Hal looks 90% Sailor Moon, 10% the Gekiranger Henshin sequence (The wrapping bandages approach)
