In
SAILOR MOON R: THE MOVIE, long before Mamoru found his destiny with
Usagi, he gave a single rose in thanks to a lonely boy who helped him
recover from the crash that claimed his parents. This long-forgotten
friend, Fiore, has been searching the galaxy for a flower worthy of that
sweet gesture long ago. The mysterious flower he finds is beautiful,
but has a dark side - it has the power to take over planets. To make
matters worse, the strange plant is tied to an ominous new asteroid near
Earth! Faced with an enemy blooming out of control, it’s up to Sailor
Moon and the Sailor Guardians to band together, stop the impending
destruction and save Mamoru!
The SAILOR MOON anime series depicts the adventures of Usagi
Tsukino, a cheerful 14-year-old schoolgirl who often finds herself in
unwanted trouble. One day, she saves a talking cat named Luna from some
mean kids, and her life is changed forever. Luna gives Usagi a magic
brooch that transforms her into Sailor Moon, guardian of love and
justice!
The SAILOR MOON anime series is inspired by the bestselling manga series created by Naoko
Takeuchi. In the series, Usagi Tsukino is a clumsy but kindhearted
teenage girl who transforms into the powerful guardian of love and
justice, Sailor Moon. Meeting allies along the way who share similar
fates, Usagi and her team of planetary Sailor Guardians fight to protect
the universe from forces of evil and total annihilation!
Fans
are also invited to enjoy the original, classic SAILOR MOON as well as
the all-new SAILOR MOON CRYSTAL anime series, which are now available
from VIZ Media as Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo Packs as well as multi-disc Standard Edition DVD Sets.
