First Appearance: Act 28
See Also: Live action Sailor Moon exclusive attack.
  
  
In Brief: Moonlight Attractive Attack is the first group attack used by the five Sailor Soldiers in the live action Sailor Moon. It features Sailor Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus summoning their own planet's powers and then lending that power to Sailor Moon who performs the finishing move.
The attack seems to only be possible with the use of the Star Tambourines though can be done with at least one Sailor Soldier missing as seen in Act 29 when the attack was used while Sailor Venus was absent. A shortened version of the attack was used in that situation starting from the moment the moon is encased in a gold ribbon.
  
  
Cultural: "The rainbow has a place in legend due to its beauty and the difficulty in explaining the phenomenon before the work of Descartes in the 17th century (although, as mentioned above, Theodoric of Freiburg had given a satisfactory explanation in the 13th century.)
In Greek mythology, the rainbow was considered to be a path made by a messenger (Iris) between Earth and Heaven. In Chinese mythology, the rainbow was a slit in the sky sealed by Goddess Nüwa using stones of five different colours. In Hindu mythology, the rainbow is called Indradhanush, meaning the bow of Indra, the God of lightning and thunder. In Norse Mythology, a rainbow called the Bifröst Bridge connects the realms of Ásgard and Midgard, homes of the gods and humans, respectively. The Irish leprechaun's secret hiding place for his pot of gold is usually said to be at the end of the rainbow. This place is impossible to reach, because the rainbow is an optical effect which depends on the location of the viewer. When walking towards the end of a rainbow, it will move further away.
In the Bible, the rainbow is a symbol of the covenant between God and man, and God's promise to Noah that he would never again flood the entire Earth. The Rainbow has even become the symbol for a modern movement within Judaism called B'nei Noah. B'nei Noah are non-Jews who continue to follow in the ways of their ancestor Noah. The Noahide movement has its roots in Jewish Tradition, specifically the Talmud. The rainbow body is an important concept in Tibetan Buddhism."

The Move: Sailor Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus begin the attack by aiming their Star Tambourines into a point (kind of like a may poll) and then walking in a circle. They then float individually across the screen as they wave their tambourines in circle formations while summoning the power of their respective planets which manifest in the background.
Sailor Moon then appears in centre and pulls her Moon Wand down to her chest. The other Sailor Soldiers then cartwheel to her side as the Moon rises behind them and then the Sun rises in turn behind the Moon.
  
  
Sailor Mars, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus then place their Star Tambourines together one more time which releases different coloured ribbons that fly into the sky like a rainbow and then tie themselves into a rainbow coloured bow. The Moon then appears which is wrapped in a bright golden ribbon. The Moon glows a bright gold and then absorbs it's powers into Sailor Moon's broach.
Sailor Moon then glows a bright gold and raises her Moon Wand while yelling "Moon Twilight Attack!" A super powerful gold blast of energy flies across the ground's surface ripping up the surface as it flies towards the screen with the Moon in the background.
