About Sailor Moon Sailor Stars

Here is what Sailor Moon Sailor Stars (美少女戦士セーラームーン セーラースターズ) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, adventure and comedy anime by Toei Animation (1996). At its core: Like the R Season, SailorStars is divided into two arcs: The first arc solves some conflicts from the SuperS season, and also sees the return of the Outer Senshi, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, and Hotaru (now reborn as a child). The second arc is the actual plot from the manga.

Beyond that: Usagi bids farewell to Mamoru, who is going to America to study abroad. In his place comes the Three Lights, an idol trio consisting of three boys, Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten. The new adversary is Galaxia, a woman who desires to rule the entire galaxy by collecting the Star Seeds of humans.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Kotono Mitsuishi as Usagi Tsukino and Aya Hisakawa as Ami Mizuno. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. The run is 34 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
