Crescent-moon tiara gradient border
A signature shoujo flourish: a rounded surface ringed by a soft pink-to-lavender-to-yellow gradient, evoking Sailor Moon's tiara crescent and transformation halo.

Sparkle-overlay backdrop
The hallmark transformation-sequence shimmer — soft glowing sparkles scattered across a hero surface using layered radial gradients. No images required.

Rose-petal divider
A horizontal rule built from inline rose-petal glyphs flanked by hairline pink rules — replaces the generic `<hr>` for editorial section breaks.
