Top 10 Best Sailor Moon Characters

Top 10 Best Sailor Moon Characters
VOICE OVER: Ashley Bowman
Written by Arschel Morell

They're the heroes from our childhood and the inspiration for countless cosplays. Welcome to WatchMojo.com and today we're counting down our picks for the Top 10 Sailor Moon Characters.

For this list we're looking at the wide catalogue of Sailor Scouts (and the occasional hero) that made this series the massive hit it still is today.

Special thanks to our users Drew Boxall, Andre Drew, Adam Artigas, Kevin Johnson, and Natalie Leung for submitting the idea on our interactive suggestion tool: WatchMojo.comsuggest/Top+10+Sailor+Moon+characters

#10: Sailor Neptune

She’s one of the most popular girls in school and for good reason. Michiru or Michelle in the dub, is an accomplished violinist and expert swimmer, making her both graceful and athletic. Much like Sailor Mercury, when she becomes Sailor Neptune, her powers are heavily water based, drowning dozens of enemies at once. But don’t let her good looks fool you. Neptune can be quite the furious maiden of justice when the situation calls for it…

#9: Sailor Uranus

The only time you might ever see the lady lighten up is when she’s around her girlfriend and fighting partner, Sailor Neptune. As a member of the Outer Senshi, Haruka (or Amara) can become Sailor Uranus and use her flight based powers to lay the smack down on enemies. When teamed up with her eternal love, Sailor Neptune, the combined power of their attacks is devastating. While it takes her a bit to warm up to Usagi and her friends, Haruka remains one of the Senshi’s strongest allies against evil.

#8: Sailor Pluto

As the guardian of the Space Time Door, Setsuna also known as Trista is one of the most powerful Scouts. With her powers being time based, She can even stop time itself. When she isn’t decimating enemies, or standing watch over time, Pluto has a very close friendship with Chibiusa, as well as her fellow Outer Senshi teammates, Uranus and Neptune. She’s the kind of Scout many would aspire to be: wise, elegant and a total bad ass.

#7: Sailor Jupiter

Lita, or Makoto in the original, was once an outcast for being so different from other girls. That all changed when she meets Usagi and the Scouts, unlocking her powers as Sailor Jupiter. As the Senshi with the power of Thunder and Lightning at her fingertips, Makoto is powerhouse of the team. She can put that immense strength to excellent use, being able to toss around even the strongest of opponents. Did we also mention she’s a pretty good cook and has a green thumb?

#6: Tuxedo Mask

The handsome warrior of justice, Tuxedo Mask, serves as the guardian angel of the Sailor Scouts, giving close attention to Sailor Moon. In his secret identity, Mamoru (or Damien) tends to pester and annoy Usagi in the beginning. But of course, he falls for her and they soon learn that their love transcends multiple timelines. He’s the gallant Prince whose affection for the Princess fuels him to do anything to protect her. And come on, who else can make a rose look so deadly in battle?

#5: Sailor Chibi Moon

The future daughter of Usagi and Mamoru, Chibiusa (also known as Rini) longs to be a Senshi like her mother and initially travels to the past to protect the future. She later decides to stay with them to learn to be a Senshi herself. Despite being mother and daughter in the future, Chibi Moon tends to have more of a sibling rivalry vibe with Usagi. Still, she has the potential to either be the strongest of the Scouts or, should evil intervene, The Queen of the Black Moon.

#4: Sailor Venus

Before joining up with her fellow heroines, Minako (or Mina) was fighting evil on her own as the beloved super heroine, Sailor V. Her powers are based on light and she’s able to ensnare, or straight up blast, her enemies with the ease of a seasoned fighter. Minako’s also a snazzy dresser, with dreams of becoming an idol. A dream she may have just achieved, gaining many fans as Sailor V -including the Scout’s leader herself.

#3: Sailor Mercury

Ami also known as Amy, is the irreplaceable brain power of the girls. At first, she’s a bit shy and incapable of enjoying life outside of studying. When she’s recruited by Sailor Moon and Luna, she puts her brains to good use combating evil and helping Usagi with her homework. Along with her water based attacks, Ami's analytical prowess as Sailor Mercury helps the Senshi plan out attacks against enemies. Through her battles alongside her friends, Ami becomes a girl who’s far more confident, beautiful and powerful than she ever thought possible.

#2: Sailor Mars

Blazing a trail to our number two spot is the guardian spirit of planet Mars. As you might imagine, Rei boasts some powerful fire based attacks, burning enemies to a cinder. When she isn’t rocking her Sailor uniform, she is a Shinto Priestess and expert exorcist. With her precognitive abilities, and use of charms, Rei is just as deadly without her super powers. Though her first encounters with Usagi start off on a sour note, she becomes Usagi's closest friend and confidant, backing her leader no matter what the mission.

Before we reveal our Top Pick, here are some Honorable Mentions:

Sailor Saturn

Luna and Artemis

Sailor Galaxia

#1: Sailor Moon

All hail the Princess of the Moon Kingdom (or the Queen, timelines and all that). Usagi better known as Serena in the states, might start her tenure as Sailor Moon as a bit of a crybaby who runs from fights. But over the course of the entire series, she grows to become a true champion of justice. Bearing a heart with an enormous capacity for love, compassion, and understanding, it’s easy to see why Sailor Moon continues to be hailed as one of the most popular, and important, Magical Girls in all of Anime.
