Wikipedia:WikiProject Sailor Moon/List of Sailor Moon characters

This is a list of characters from the Sailor Moon franchise. It contains those who appear in the anime, manga, stage musicals, and live-action series. Characters appearing only once (e.g. as monsters of the day or victims thereof) are not included.

Some of the following characters shift alliances during the story, change names, or have multiple forms or aspects. Such characters are listed only once, by the name under which they first appear. See their sub-articles for more information.

The Sailor Team

edit

The Sailor Team consists of Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon), the series' main protagonist, and the other nine Sailor Senshi who protect the solar system.

Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon (月野 うさぎ, Tsukino Usagi)
The main character of the series, called Serena in the English anime and Bunny in the English manga. Usagi, a carefree schoolgirl with an enormous capacity for love, transforms into the heroine called Sailor Moon. At the beginning of the series she is portrayed as an immature crybaby who hates having to fight evil and wants nothing more than to be a normal girl.[1][2] As she progresses, however, she embraces the chance to use her power to protect those she cares about.[3]

Ami Mizuno/Sailor Mercury (水野 亜美, Mizuno Ami)
A quiet bookworm in Usagi's class, called Amy in the English adaptations of the series. Highly intelligent, with a rumored IQ of 300,[4] she can transform into Sailor Mercury, acquiring power over all phases of water. Ami's shy exterior masks a passion for knowledge and for taking care of the people around her.[5] She hopes to become a doctor one day, like her mother, and tends to be the practical one in the group. Secretly, she is also a fan of pop culture and romance novels, and becomes embarrassed whenever this is pointed out.

Rei Hino/Sailor Mars (火野 レイ, Hino Rei)
An elegant miko (shrine maiden), called Raye in the English versions. Because of her work as a Shinto priestess, Rei can sense and dispel evil even in civilian form.[6] When she transforms into Sailor Mars she can also manipulate fire. She is very serious and focused, but although easily annoyed by Usagi's flightiness, cares about her very much. Rei is portrayed as boy-crazy in the early anime,[6] but is uninterested in romance in both the manga and live-action series.[7] She attends a private Catholic school, separate from the other girls.

Makoto Kino/Sailor Jupiter (木野 まこと, Kino Makoto)
A tomboy who transfers into Usagi's school, called Lita in the English versions. Very tall and strong for a Japanese schoolgirl,[8] she can transform into Sailor Jupiter, attacking with lightning and with some control over plants. Both Makoto's parents died in a plane crash years ago, so she lives alone and takes care of herself. She cultivates her physical strength as well as more domestic interests, including housekeeping, cooking, and gardening. She wants to marry young and to own a flower-and-cake shop.[9]

Minako Aino/Sailor Venus (愛野 美奈子, Aino Minako)
A perky dreamer who acted on her own as Sailor V for some time.[10][11] Called Mina in the English versions, she has a companion cat called Artemis who works alongside Luna in guiding the Sailor Senshi. Minako transforms into Sailor Venus, Soldier of Love, and leads Sailor Moon's four inner guardians. She also dreams of becoming a famous singer and idol and attends auditions whenever she can.[12] At the start of the live-action series, she is already these things, but has poor health and separates herself from the other Senshi.[13]

Chibi-Usa/Sailor Chibi Moon (ちびうさ)
The future daughter of Usagi and Mamoru, Chibi-Usa travels from the 30th century to seek help to save her parents, then later to train with Sailor Moon to become a soldier.[14] She learns to transform into Sailor Chibi-Moon. At times she has an adversarial relationship with her mother in the 20th century,[15]as she considers herself more mature than Usagi, but as the series progresses they develop a deep bond. Chibi-Usa wants to grow up to become a lady like her mother.[16] In the English adaptations, she is called Rini, and her alter ego is called Sailor Mini Moon.

Setsuna Meioh/Sailor Pluto (冥王 せつな, Meiō Setsuna)
A mysterious woman, called Trista in the English anime. She appears first as Sailor Pluto, the Guardian of Time, who has the task of protecting the Space-Time Door from unauthorized travelers. It is only later that she appears on Earth, living as a college student. She has a distant personality and can be very stern, but can also be quite friendly and helps the younger Sailor Senshi when she can.[17] After so long at the gate of time she carries a deep sense of loneliness, although she is close friends with Chibiusa.

Michiru Kaioh/Sailor Neptune (海王 みちる, Kaiō Michiru)
A talented violinist with some precognition, called Michelle in the English anime. A year older than most of the other Sailor Senshi, she can transform into Sailor Neptune, channeling the power of the ocean. She worked alone for some time before finding her partner, Sailor Uranus, with whom she fell in love.[18] Michiru is elegant and personable, already well known for her music as well as her painting, but has given up her own dreams for the life of a Senshi. She is fully devoted to this duty and willing to make any sacrifice for it.

Haruka Tenoh/Sailor Uranus (天王 はるか, Ten'ō Haruka)
A good-natured, masculine-acting girl, called Amara in the English anime. Haruka, of an age with her partner, Michiru, transforms into Sailor Uranus, Soldier of the Sky. Before becoming a Sailor Senshi, she dreamt of being a racer, and is skilled at driving.[19] She tends to dress and, in the anime, speak like a man. She is so friendly and genial that nearly everyone she meets is attracted to her. When it comes to fighting the enemy, however, she distrusts outside help and prefers to work solely with Sailor Neptune and, later, Pluto and Saturn.

Hotaru Tomoe/Sailor Saturn (土萠 ほたる, Tomoe Hotaru)
A sweet, lonely young girl whose name remains unchanged in English (though pronounced slightly differently). Daughter of a possessed mad scientist, a terrible lab accident in her youth significantly compromised her constitution. After overcoming the darkness that has surrounded her family, she is able to become the Soldier of Silence, Sailor Saturn.[14] She wields forces of destruction so powerful that she is rarely called upon to use them, and unlike the others, her Senshi and civilian personae seem somewhat disconnected. She is often pensive, and as a human has the inexplicable power to heal others.

Allies of the Senshi

edit

Throughout the story, Sailor Moon and her comrades meet other characters who, while not members of the Sailor Team, have some kind of supernatural power and are able to assist them.

Cats

edit

Luna (ルナ, Runa)
Sailor Moon's feline guardian. In the Silver Millennium, she was a servant to Princess Serenity, sworn never to leave her side, as well as an advisor to the Queen. She was sent forward in time to watch over Sailor Moon and serve as a mentor and guide to the Sailor Senshi. Over the course of the series, Luna develops a close bond with Usagi, though early on it is on uneasy terms, as Luna often upsets Usagi by giving her advice she does not want, and Usagi upsets Luna by not taking it. In the live-action series, Luna is able to become a human girl and a Senshi, Sailor Luna.

Artemis (アルテミス, Arutemisu)
Sailor Venus' feline guardian. He is the first of the cats to appear, and his memory of the Silver Millennium seems to be more intact than Luna's. An easygoing character, he has a close friendship with Minako and cares very deeply about his family, the other cats.
Diana (ダイアナ, Daiana)
Sailor Chibi Moon's feline guardian, the daughter of Luna and Artemis. Like Chibiusa, Diana comes from the 30th century. She is very curious, eager to help, and deeply polite, always addressing Usagi and Mamoru with the Japanese honorific "-sama" and calling Chibiusa by her formal title, Small Lady. She is also able to help the Senshi on occasion, despite her youth, and often because of the knowledge she has gained in the future.

Humanoids

edit

Mamoru Chiba/Tuxedo Mask (地場 衛, Chiba Mamoru)
A student somewhat older than Usagi, called Darien in the English adaptations of the series. As a young child he experienced a terrible car accident that robbed him of his parents and of his knowledge of who he is.[20] During the series he has some precognitive ability,[21][22] including dreams that inspire him to take on the guise of Tuxedo Mask and fight alongside the Sailor Senshi. After an initially confrontational relationship,[2] he and Usagi remember their past lives together and fall in love again.

Queen Serenity (クィーン・セレニティ, Kuīn Sereniti)
Queen of the Silver Millennium from the characters' past lives and mother of Princess Serenity. Though her daughter is reincarnated as Usagi Tsukino, the earthly child of Ikuko Tsukino, the Queen occasionally appears as a guide to help the Sailor Senshi remember who they are. She states in the manga that she is the figure known to ancients as the goddess Selene,[23] and because of this her name is sometimes romanized as "Queen Selenity."
Pegasus (一角天馬, Pegasasu)
A winged white unicorn appearing in Chibiusa's dreams. His name kanji combine the words for "unicorn" (ikkakujū) and "pegasus" (tenbo), but are given the furigana pronunciation of Pegasus only. In reality, he is Helios (エリオス, Eriosu), the priest of Elysion, which is the remnant of Earth's ancient Golden Kingdom. As such, he is the guardian of the Golden Crystal and has a close spiritual connection with Mamoru. He takes refuge from the Dead Moon Circus in Chibiusa's dreams and, though cautious at first, becomes close friends with her. It is strongly implied that, in the 30th century, they will marry.
Sailor Starlights
A team of three Sailor Senshi: Sailor Star Fighter, Sailor Star Healer, and Sailor Star Maker. They come from Kinmoku, a fictional planet outside of the solar system, after it has been wiped out in an attack by Galaxia. On Earth, they take on the guise of a male pop band, the Three Lights, and use their music as a signal beacon for their leader, Princess Kakyuu. In this form they take on the names Kou Seiya, Kou Yaten, and Kou Taiki. In the manga, they are always female and merely dress as males; in the anime, they physically transform into young men and are much more major characters. In both cases, Seiya develops romantic feelings for Usagi.
Princess Kakyuu (火球皇女, Kakyū Purinsesu)
The princess of Kinmoku. When her planet is destroyed by Galaxia, she goes into hiding and is sought by her guardians, the Sailor Starlights. Her absence serves as the major driving motive for the Starlights for most of the story arc, in which she does not personally appear until near the end. In the manga, she is also a Sailor Senshi (Sailor Kakyuu), and, having been injured in the fight with Galaxia, senses the power of the Silver Moon Crystal and travels to Earth for help. Until her wounds are healed, she hides in an incense burner protected by the infant ChibiChibi. In the anime, wounds are not mentioned, and her reason for coming to Earth is to seek "The Light of Hope."
ChibiChibi (ちびちび)
A tiny girl with mysterious powers who attaches herself to Usagi and her family. She is very young, perhaps two years old, but grants power to the other characters and even becomes a Sailor Senshi herself—Sailor Chibi Chibi in the manga, and Sailor Chibi Chibi Moon in the anime. In the manga, she is further revealed to be a disguise for Sailor Cosmos, the ultimate form of a future Sailor Moon who has come back in time to try and destroy Chaos completely. In the anime, Sailor Cosmos does not appear, and ChibiChibi is explained instead as "The Light of Hope," the starseed or essence of goodness which Sailor Galaxia had cast away from herself in order to keep it from being corrupted by Chaos.
Sailor Astarte
A Sailor Senshi who appears only in Transylvania no Mori, one of the musicals, and its revision. She is first introduced as a transfer student from Transylvania, Shiba Shingetsu Astarte, and later transforms into "the tenth Sailor Senshi." Meanwhile, unbeknownst to her, Shiba has two other entities hiding within her body: Dark Cain, the musical's villain, and Vulcan, a benevolent entity trying to help the Senshi.
Dead Senshi
In the manga only, the evil Sailor Animamates are exposed as having gotten their high positions in Shadow Galactica by murdering the guardian Sailor Senshi of their home planets. These included Sailor Coronis (the only one to be pictured), Sailor Mau, and Sailor Chū, each named for their planet of origin. Sailor Mermaid and Sailor Cocoon are not mentioned specifically, but Animamates from those planets are shown (Aluminum Siren and Heavy Metal Papillon).
Guides and guardians
Throughout the series, several minor guides make appearances. These include the Sailor Power Guardians who protect the Senshi's castles; Guardian Cosmos, who protects the Galaxy Cauldron; the Maenads, priestesses of Elysion who work with Pegasus/Helios; and Phobos and Deimos, maidens from the planet Coronis who live in the form of crows at Hikawa Shrine. An additional character, Diana the Moon Fairy, was originally planned to appear in the ruins of the destroyed Moon Kingdom during the first story arc, but she appears only in conceptual art.

Recurring humans

edit

The family and friends of the Sailor Senshi play a constant role in the series, despite the fact that most don't know about the ongoing battle between good and evil.

Family

edit

Ikuko Tsukino (月野育子, Tsukino Ikuko)
Usagi's mother (at least on Earth; see Queen Serenity). She also cares for Chibi-Usa and Chibi-Chibi when they are present. A good-natured housewife, she is often seen cooking or doing other housework, and has no idea of Usagi's identity as Sailor Moon. She chides Usagi for her poor grades, but also gives her sympathetic advice and eagerly accepts her relationship with Mamoru. She appears frequently at the beginning of the story, but appears less and less often as the series progresses. Her fate after the end of the story is not shown.
In the live-action series, Ikuko is a much quirkier and more outgoing character. She changes her hairstyle almost every day, is constantly trying out new (and questionable) omelet recipes, and loves nothing more than being in the spotlight.
"Ikuko-mama," as she is called, is based in name and appearance on series creator Naoko Takeuchi's own mother. In the Japanese anime, Ikuko is voiced by Sanae Takagi. In the English dub, she is voiced by Barbara Radecki. In the live action series, she is portrayed by Kaori Moriwaka.
Kenji Tsukino (月野謙之, Tsukino Kenji)
Usagi's Earth father. A well-meaning and affectionate salaryman, he works as a magazine reporter[24] and later as editor-in-chief.[25] Early on, he is very resistant to Usagi's relationship with Mamoru, urging her to date Umino instead. He appears frequently in the first season of the anime, but vanishes entirely after the second. In the manga, he is the only member of Usagi's family who notices the similarities between her and Sailor Moon.
Kenji never appears in the main body of the live-action series, and instead is always away on business trips. His wife teasingly complains to him about this over the phone, but laughs it away and seems genuinely proud of and happy with him. He does appear briefly in the direct-to-DVD Special Act, crying at Usagi's wedding.
"Kenji-papa" is based on Naoko Takeuchi's father. His voice actor in the original Japanese version is Yuji Machi. His English voice actor is David Huband. In the Special Act of the live-action series, he is played by series director Ryuta Tasaki.
Shingo Tsukino (月野進悟, Tsukino Shingo)
Usagi's younger brother, called Sammy in the English adaptations. His influence in her life is alternately helpful and mocking; he considers his sister well-meaning, but a crybaby and a klutz. Though unaware of his sister's true identity, he is impressed by the media-hyped urban legends of Sailor Moon and Sailor V. He is a particularly enthusiastic fan of Sailor Moon, because she rescued him from Dark Kingdom forces fairly early on in her career.[26] His favorite book is listed as Shonen J*mp (a reference to Shonen Jump), and he likes to play Famicom.[27] At the beginning of the series, he is in Grade 5, meaning that he is between 10 and 11 years old. Shingo appears often near the beginning of the story, but only occasionally later.
In the live-action series, Shingo is more cynical and low-key character. He is annoyed by his mother and sister, and largely avoids them. Even when he discovers Luna's true identity, he ignores the revelation and goes back to playing his video games. In the video game "Another Story," Shingo is temporarily granted a large role, as he is kidnapped by the villains as ransom in an attempt to force his big sister to hand over the Silver Crystal. In a conversation with one of the villains, Shingo defends his sister from insults, confessing that while Usagi can be irritating, stealing his food and using his games, she also worries about him when he's sick or hurt.
In the Japanese anime, he is voiced by Chiyoko Kawashima (who also performs as Sailor Pluto and Haruna Sakurada). In the English dub, he is voiced by Julie Lemieux. In the live action series Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, he is played by Naoki Takeshi.
Rei's grandfather (レイのおじいさん, Rei no ojiisan)
The owner of Hikawa shrine. He appears very seldom in the manga, depicted as a thin man with a mustache, but appears frequently in the anime as a short, good-humored, unrepentantly lecherous man. He earns a bad reputation for constantly trying to convince pretty girls to become shrine maidens--nor does he hesitate to flirt with attractive young men.[28] He is also one of the holders of the Rainbow Crystals that make up the Silver Crystal. He does not figure in the live-action series.
Rei's parents
Rei lives mostly alone in every version of the series. In the manga, her mother died when Rei was a young child, whereupon her father, a very high ranked politician, left her at the Hikawa shrine with her maternal grandfather. Rei preferred this arrangement, because while her mother was dying, her father was busy with work, and never came to visit her--for which Rei has never forgiven him. This is the major reason why Rei does not trust men, in both the manga and live-action series. Her backstory is not developed as fully in the anime.
The live-action series names the characters Takeshi and Risa Hino. Takeshi and Rei have monthly "lunch dates" so that he can keep up the appearance of being a loving father to his constituents, but Rei knows the real meaning of the meetings and despises him even more for it. Late in the series, he tries to make Rei move back with him in order to save face in an upcoming election, but Rei refuses. In the manga, he only meets with Rei on her birthday and always gives her bouquets of Casablanca lilies and a white dress, which are always picked out by his secretary.
Ami's parents
Ami's mother, Mizuno-sensei, is a highly successful doctor at the Jūban Secondary General Hospital. Though she is always busy and very rarely appears in the series, her success is a tremendous influence on Ami and is one of the main reasons why she wants to become a doctor. In the live-action series she features prominently in a few episodes as a kind woman who openly regrets not being able to spend more time with her beloved daughter. Here she is given the name Saeko.[29]
Ami's estranged father is a traveling artist. He sends Ami paintings on an infrequent basis. He is only discussed in the manga, where Ami feels a mixture of both love and hatred for the man because of his abandonment of her when her parents divorced.
Other family
Most of the other characters' families do not appear in the series. Makoto's died in a plane crash when she was young, and Mamoru's died in a car accident. Minako has living parents, but they appear only in the Sailor V manga. Hotaru's father is Professor Souichi Tomoe; her mother, Keiko Tomoe, died in the same accident that left Hotaru injured. She is eventually adopted by Haruka, Michiru, and Setsuna, who live together and whose families are never mentioned at all.

Schoolmates

edit
Naru Osaka (大阪なる, Ōsaka Naru)
Usagi's best friend, called Molly Baker in the dub.[30] In every incarnation of the series, Naru is the very first victim of a youma attack, and hero-worships Sailor Moon for saving her. Throughout the early series, she continues to be a frequent target of youma and other monsters, which has become something of a joke both within the series and among its fans.[31]
In the first season of the anime, Naru falls in love with the evil Nephrite, who eventually returns her feelings and attempts to atone. His death while protecting Naru leads to a long period of depression for her, which lasts throughout the remainder of the first series. This "memorable subplot" was discussed in a book by Patrick Drazen, who describes Naru as "compassionate" and "self-sacrificing."[32] Kotono Mitsuishi, the voice actress for Sailor Moon, has stated that she was particularly touched by this story arc.[33] Later in the anime, after she has recovered, Naru ends up dating Gurio Umino; the two teenagers even win a 'Love Contest', fighting against other couples to see who was most in love.[34]
As the story progresses, Naru's role becomes smaller, as she is not one of the Sailor Senshi and Usagi no longer has as much free time to spend with her old friend. It is strongly implied in the second season that Naru has figured out Sailor Moon's identity on her own. In the live-action series, Naru eventually learns most of the truth about the Senshi. For a short while, she and Ami share a mutual dislike of each other due to jealousy of Usagi's time and affections, but they later resolve their differences and become good friends themselves.
In the official Sailor Moon character popularity polls, Naru has ranked as 19th[35] and 23rd.[36] In the Japanese anime, she is voiced by Shino Kakinuma, with a strong Osakan accent (a pun on her family name). Her English voice actress is Mary Long, who gives her a strong Brooklyn accent as part of the adaptation to American markets.[5] In the live-action adaptation of the series, she is played with no accent in particular by Chieko Kawabe, who previously played Sailor Mercury in the musicals.
Gurio Umino (海野ぐりお, Umino Gurio)
One of Usagi's classmates, known as Melvin in the English dub. Blunt, devoted, and zealous, he is usually called simply Umino, and begins the series with a severe crush with fellow student Usagi Tsukino. His defining characteristic is his thick glasses; he is a geeky know-it-all who keeps Usagi informed on current events, new students, gossip, and any other information she might appreciate. In the anime, he eventually ends up dating Naru, and like her, his importance gradually decreases after the first anime series.
In the manga, Umino is revealed to be incredibly handsome when he takes his glasses off, a joke riffing on his ordinarily nerdy appearance. This trait is shared with the one-off character Princess D.
The kanji in Umino's surname represent a pun meaning either "ocean field" or "of the ocean"; as such, it is constructed in the same way as Usagi's and those of all four Guardian Senshi. His first name, Gurio, is given in hiragana, and so its meaning is unclear. He is voiced in the Japanese anime by Keiichi Nanba, and in the English dub by Roland Parliament.
Haruna Sakurada (桜田春菜, Sakurada Haruna)
Usagi's junior high school teacher, known as Patricia Haruna in the English dub. She can be quite strict, especially when it comes to students being late for class, but is also lovesick and obsessed with finding a husband, which makes her an easy target for the Dark Kingdom during the first series. Like most of the other minor characters, she fades into the background as the anime series progresses (and vanishes entirely when the Senshi leave middle school). In the live-action series, she is much less strict and much more eccentric and friendly.
The kanji in Haruna-sensei's name mean "cherry blossom" (sakura), "rice field" (da), "spring" (haru), and "vegetables" (na). The "spring" in "Haruna" makes her part of an inside joke that spans several of Takeuchi's works. She and her sister, Fuyuna, appear briefly in one earlier series, The Cherry Project. Two other characters with similar names appear in Takeuchi works: Natsuna in Codename: Sailor V and Akina in PQ Angels. The Japanese words fuyu, natsu, and aki mean "winter," "summer," and "autumn" respectively.
In Japanese, she is voiced by Chiyoko Kawashima, and in English by Nadine Rabinovitch. She is played by Cheiko Ooduka in the live action version. She even appears in the stage musicals and has been played by two actresses: Kasumi Hyuuga and Kiho Seishi.
Ryo Urawa (浦和良, Urawa Ryō)
Another classmate, known as Greg in the English dub. Urawa is introduced as having the highest score in an exam, higher than Ami, and secretly has powers that allow him to see the future. Urawa has a crush on Ami Mizuno, but is too shy to admit it; she seems to like him, too, but they never enter into a relationship. He also bears one of the Rainbow Crystals that make up the Silver Crystal. He is one of few non-villain characters to explicitly state that he knows a Senshi's identity, and he often calls Sailor Mercury by her civilian name. In the Another Story video game, he and Ami are in a long-distance relationship, but this is never stated in the anime, nor does Urawa appear again after the first season.
The kanji in Urawa's name mean "inlet" (ura), "peace" (wa), and "good" (ryō). In the Japanese version he is voiced by Shinichiro Ohta, and in English by Eric Kimmel.
Momoko Momohara (桃原桃子, Momohara Momoko)
Chibi-Usa's classmate. She first appears in the second season, with brown hair, and is called Melissa in the English dub. In the fourth season, her character design is modified---she is several years older, with purple hair, and in the dub is renamed Melanie, or Melly. She is a target of the series' villains on more than one occasion, always in episodes that center on Chibi-Usa and their friendship. In the second Sailor Moon popularity poll, Momoko was ranked the twenty-fifth most popular character out of fifty choices.[36]
Kyūsuke Sarashina (更科九助, Sarashina Kyūsuke)
Chibi-Usa's classmate, called Kelly in the English dub. An athletic and sarcastic student, he is sometimes targeted by the series' villains. His older sister, Kotono Sarashina, attends T*A Private Girls School with Rei Hino.
Kotono
Ittō Asanuma (浅沼一等, Asanuma Ittō)
Mamoru's younger classmate, whose presence is mostly limited the manga. A UFO and science fiction enthusiast, Asanuma idolizes Mamoru and develops some closeness with Makoto. After observing several strange occurrences around the Senshi, he deduces that there is something supernatural about them and confronts Makoto with what he has seen. She admits that he is right, and he promises not to tell anyone.
