See, in many modern animes, you’d probably get the protagonist to say something like, “Wha-WHAAAT? Uh, b-but we’re both girls! Shouldn’t you be giving this to a boy or something?”
I really like how Usagi handles it. She’s not undermining the girl’s feelings and she’s taking her seriously. And while she doesn’t reciprocate, she offers her friendship instead of just brushing the girl off and going “ew, gay weirdo!” Sailor Moon really did empower women and sexuality, and this is one of the many scenes that showcases that.
