Beautiful Earth...
I shall make it even more beautiful.
And Earth shall be mine...

One of the official pilots for the Lunar Frontier Project
which is aimed at the investigation of the new moon,
Himeko Nayotake
is a Japanese woman, Himeko Nayotake.
Himeko Nayotake
She spends her days busy at NASA, training prior to liftoff.
Now, enjoy a CG simulation of the Lunar Frontier Project.
That spaceship is going to the moon!
I want to go on a trip to the moon with Mamo on that thing, too!
What kind of happy-go-lucky idea is that?
This is your last winter break in middle school!
Shouldn't you be studying for your high school entrance exams?
Someone like you, who's never been in love,
would never understand what it's like for a young maiden like me to be in love!
Oh, fine. I...
...never fall in love.
Luna, what's wrong?
I think I caught a cold yesterday...
Usagi, I'm going to go home ahead of you now.
Are you all right?
I'll walk you home.
I'm all right.
But—
I can go home by myself.
Artemis, don't make such a big deal out of it. Bye!
Y-You idiot!
So you're awake.
Don't move, you still have a fever.
Just sleep quietly for tonight.
He looked after me all night...
He did this for me?
He did this for little me?
What? Luna?
She's still not back from yesterday.
I wonder what happened to her?
Maybe she got sick after that and collapsed somewhere.
That's why I wanted to escort her home...
Really, I wonder what happened?
She couldn't possibly have run away from home, right?
Do you think that's possible, Usagi?
Did you make fun of her?
I would never make fun of her!
Or you made some snide remark!
Geez!
Clumsy!
Clumsy
Careless!
Careless
Crybaby! She's the one who always makes the snide remarks!
Crybaby
To you, Rei...
Oh, yeah?
This is no time to argue!
Let's split up and look for her!
Right!
National Space Development Agency Space Center
I hope you're hungry.
Looks like you're feeling better. I'm glad...
Coming!
Morning, Kakeru!
Hime! Welcome back!
When did you get back to Japan?
With the first airbus this morning.
Have you been watching the news of the Lunar Frontier Project?
Yeah, I have. Congratulations!
Is that all?
No, never mind...
I haven't been in Japan for a year...
Are things still the same?
I discovered a new comet two nights ago.
Really?
Yeah. I saw it near the moon,
so I named it Princess Snow Kaguya.
So you were looking at the moon again.
But that's odd...
There wasn't any such information at NASA...
Are you sure it's not a mistake?
It's not a mistake! I saw it with my own eyes!
And this may be a part of it.
It fell from the sky the night I saw the comet.
So pretty...
But the comet disappeared soon afterwards.
Everyone over at Space Frontier Industries is doubting its existence.
But you believe me, right?
I'm sure I saw it!
Everyone laughed at you before, when you said
there was a goddess on the moon!
Maybe you're just a romantic when it comes to space?
But when I look at the moon,
I feel a mystical energy like there's life there!
That doesn't sound like someone researching state-of-the-art technology.
It's all right if you don't believe me.
You've been brilliant since you were little, Kakeru.
Physics, biology, medicine, and astrological engineering...
You have doctorates in many fields.
Everyone believed that you would be an astronaut someday.
So why do you keep saying such unscientific things?
Are you all right?
I am not feeling well today.
I'm sorry, but can you go home today?
Please!
I used a week's vacation...
Just to see you...
From the States...
From Marshall...
I came back!
Sorry!
Fine...
Why couldn't I be honestly happy for her?
After all, her biggest wish to go into space, came true...
By the way, what's your name?
Lu—
Oops, I shouldn't talk.
Kuro? Tama? It can't be Mike...
Since you have a crescent moon on your forehead...
The Moon...
Moon?
Luna?
Ah! So you're named Luna!
Yes!
Your owner must be an elegant person to name you Luna.
Elegant
Luna!
You want a sugar star?
Sugar stars look like shooting stars.
If you wish upon the sugar star and eat it, you'll meet Princess Kaguya someday.
I've always thought that since I was a kid.
Is it silly of me...
to think that something like a mystical goddess is on the moon?
I see. You believe me?
There is a fairy tale called The Bamboo Taker.
I can't help but believe
that there is a being like Princess Kaguya living on the moon.
Himeko...
What is this heart-wrenching feeling?
This feeling that...
I've never felt before...
Beautiful Earth...
The treasure that I've been longing for since ancient times...
At last, the time has come for me to claim it!
My sweet little servants, Snow Dancers...
Turn Earth into one giant block of ice!
Luna!
Snow!
Mercury Star Power, Make-Up!
Mars Star Power, Make-Up!
Jupiter Star Power, Make-Up!
Venus Star Power, Make-Up!
Uranus Planet Power, Make-Up!
Neptune Planet Power, Make-Up!
Pluto Planet Power, Make-Up!
World Shaking!
Supreme Thunder!
Crescent Beam!
That was some freaky thing...
Bubble...
Spray!
Fire...
Soul!
Chibiusa!
Time to transform!
Moon Prism Power, Make-Up!
Moon Cosmic Power, Make-Up!
Hold it right there!
It's a cheerful winter break!
I won't allow you to freeze a bustling town and its inhabitants!
That's unforgivable!
For love and justice!
We are the pretty sailor-suited soldiers,
Sailor Moon!
And Sailor Chibi Moon!
In the name of the moon,
we will punish you!
Wha... What?
If you do that...
I'll get dizzy...
Sailor Moon, don't be fooled...
Y-Yeah!
The real one...
...is you!
Ah! I got it wrong!
This is...
Santa?
Merry Christmas!
And a...
Happy New Year!
Tuxedo Mask!
Winters are harsh in the north where snow falls often.
However, snow that bleaches the world white
is like beautiful lovers that meet in the winter!
Now, Sailor Moon!
Right!
Moon Spiral Heart Attack!
They're back to normal.
To think that Earth actually had people against me...
Snow Dancers, have you found the crystal that's in Japan?
It has the power to freeze the entire world at once! Find it!
Long ago...
A light bounced me off when I tried to approach Earth.
And it forced me to take a long journey.
No need to rush now.
All I need do is slightly alter my plans on how to take over Earth.
Without anyone noticing,
I will slowly make Earth mine after I find that crystal.
What were those things?
Another new enemy trying to take over the world?
In any case, we should be careful.
Hey, it's Luna!
What? Where?
Luna!
We were worried about you!
Where did you get that ribbon?
Oh, this?
Come visit again sometime.
A-Anyway, there is a mysterious comet approaching the moon.
A comet?
Hikawa Shrine
I checked it out,
but there's no sign of Luna's comet.
If it can't be detected by Ami's computers...
And there hasn't been anything strange since,
so maybe that was the end of that enemy?
Sorry I'm late!
Geez, you really are the queen of tardiness.
Well, I found this really cute guy on my way here, and...
Hey, where's Luna?
Oh, she said she wasn't coming because she had to do something.
Luna's been acting really weird lately.
She keeps reading medical books while eating sugar stars.
Now that you mention it,
she came to my place to borrow one of my medical textbooks.
I saw her near the Space Frontier Industries observatory two days ago.
I called out to her, but she didn't hear me.
Something is definitely strange about her.
And that yellow ribbon...
I wonder where that came from?
Yeah, she stopped nagging me about studying
for the high school entrance exams...
That's definitely weird!
It's hot!
You idiot!
I don't know...
What could his illness be?
Sorry, kitty.
You'll get in the way today, so can you go home?
In the way...
...because I'm a cat...
Luna's been acting strange ever since the day she disappeared.
I wonder what's wrong with her.
Usa,
maybe Luna wants free time on her own.
It might be too much for her if you were snooping around her all the time.
Snooping around her all the time?
Mamo, could you mean... could you mean...
Fine, you think I'm a nuisance when I'm around you!
W-Wait Usa, that's not what I meant!
If I was human, I would be able to take care of Kakeru...
You're being silly. Don't jump to conclusions.
But you hate it when you're stuck with me all the time, right?
I never thought you were a nuisance.
Really?
Of course, silly.
Mamo...
Usa...
Usagi, you smell nice.
It's the potpourri.
Um, what kind of things do you usually talk about with Mamoru?
A lot of things.
Though, Mamo is often reading really hard books and doesn't talk to me about them.
But Mamo tells me all about the things that really interest him.
And then...
And then?
He falls asleep right away on the sofa.
Something wrong?
N-Nothing...
Well, you see, he does it because he always feels secure with me.
Mamo looks so cute when he's asleep, just like a baby!
H-How does it feel to kiss?
Well, it's just so sweet,
like you're gonna melt!
Sweet...
like you're going to melt...
Mamo...
Bang!!
Luna, you came to see me again.
I once had a dream to be an astronaut...
but I wasn't physically strong, so I had to give up that dream.
And...
As of late, it's...
At least I want to see Hime blast off.
Hime will make my dream come true...
Will you pray with me so her flight goes well, Luna?
It's strange. I can't really explain why,
but even though you're a cat, I feel like you understand me perfectly.
I'm sure the Earth and the moon look beautiful from space.
I would like to show it to you, Luna.
Come here.
You smell good, Luna.
It feels nice...
Mamo looks so cute when he's asleep, just like a baby!
I also want to go to outer space with you.
I saw it, I saw it!
A very giddy Luna sneaking back after daybreak!
Oh, my!
It must be love!
Love?
Luna's finally fallen in love!
But we don't have solid proof, right?
That yellow ribbon! It has to be love!
I think so too!
Can't everyone be more considerate for Artemis?
Oh, sorry!
Huh? What do you mean?
By perchance, you didn't know, Usagi?
What? What?
...How Artemis feels towards Luna.
He's in love with her?
You finally noticed!
Well, I always thought they were just really good friends.
You're so dense!
Love...
I wish I could...
With entrance exams approaching,
we have no time for romance...
Except for me!
I have Mamo!
Let's leave her alone.
She just loves to brag about it...
But once exams are over,
it would sure be nice to have a beautiful romance...
Oh, yeah...
That reminds me of that upperclassman...
I want to see him again...
I wonder where my first love is now...
Me too...
They haven't appeared at all since.
It sure is peaceful...
But is it really peaceful?
Haruka, do you sense something?
No, nothing. But I have a feeling...
Me too. But I can't quite place it...
It's almost as if time has stopped...
Sailor Soldiers, you can stay in that illusion!
Long time no see.
Y-Yes...
Luna, if you have something that you're worried about...
I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry.
I'm sorry, Artemis.
Luna's in love with that man?
Kakeru, I'm leaving Japan today.
I see, today is the big day.
I wish you success.
Thank you.
Kakeru,
after I come back from space,
I'll be at your side forever.
You're joking, right?
We live in completely different worlds...
And we think nothing alike...
You only think of the moon as something that floats in space!
You're not like me!
I'm sure you'll find someone more suitable for you.
I see...
That's how you have always looked at me, right?
That's the only way you saw me...
Isn't it?
It's true that
I don't feel a mystical life energy from the moon
that resembles Princess Kaguya.
But—
That's enough!
In reality, Kakeru loves Himeko...
Usagi...
Luna.
You love him?
Kakeru is hiding his illness from Himeko.
He's so foolish...
He really loves her...
Luna.
Usagi, I know I'm just a cat but...
I thought that we could understand each other, that we were destined...
I really did...
But to him, it was...
...not me.
I wish I were human.
If I were human...
If I could be at his side as a human,
I would at least be able to tell him
how I feel and not feel frustrated the way I do now...
Luna...
Kakeru!
I've found it!
This crystal seems to have multiplied its powers
by absorbing your life energy.
So that comet was...
Princess Snow Kaguya was...!
Princess Snow Kaguya?
What a lovely name.
Yes, a part of myself is slowly approaching Earth.
You, too, will become a part of my lovely collection
along with this Earth that will soon freeze.
So the enemy didn't give up after all!
I have to let everyone know!
Kakeru was in pain because of that crystal from the comet!
But he should be fine now.
No!
Why?
As long as the crystal exists,
its effect will not disappear.
And now is the time to lock Earth inside a beautiful world of ice!
I remember now!
I read it in an ancient text long ago.
Long ago, an evil star appeared and spread crystals of ice all about...
crystals that covered Earth froze the land and turned it dark.
However, the power of love and friendship, the Silver Crystal Power
dissolved the darkness and saved Earth...
That's what was on the text.
An evil star... could it be the comet Luna was talking about?
I wonder what the Silver Crystal Power of love and friendship is?
Anyway, it's a fact that the evil star has finally returned
to take over Earth.
We won't let it happen!
National Space Development Agency Space Center
Now, be careful out there.
Good luck!
Thank you.
Um...
Oh, this kitty is yours?
Miss Himeko, can you please postpone the Lunar Frontier Project?
What are you saying?!
There is a comet approaching Earth.
And an ice witch is going to come from the comet.
What are you talking about?
I know you probably won't believe me, but she's trying to freeze the Earth.
It's too dangerous to go into space right now.
That's ridiculous!
But...
In such scientifically enlightened times, we shouldn't cling onto childish fairytales!
What should I do?
Perhaps...
Perhaps if he met the Princess Kaguya of his dreams,
it would be enough of a boost to fight off the evil energy.
Princess Kaguya?
If I were only human,
I could at least pretend to be his Princess Kaguya.
Luna, even if you could become human, you and Kakeru wouldn't...
I don't care what happens to me.
I just want to save Kakeru.
If he can meet Princess Kaguya, who he's been dreaming of ever since his childhood,
I'm sure he'd be courageous.
He would become strong enough to fight his illness away.
But a cat could never become a human...
And blizzards are reported even in the savannas of Africa.
Could this be...
We predict bitter cold and much snowfall
There is no mistaking it, it's her doing!
tonight and tomorrow all over Japan.
Usagi.
I found the enemy's base!
Now, everything... freeze away!
Invited by a new era,
I am Sailor Uranus, fighting magnificently!
Also invited by a new era,
I am Sailor Neptune, fighting gracefully!
I am Sailor Pluto, in charge of time!
I will not allow you to do as you please to this lovely Earth!
So you appear, Sailor Soldiers.
But, it is all too late!
Deep Submerge!
World Shaking!
Dead Scream.
Whatever you do is all useless!
Snow Dancers, don't freeze them now. Lead them to their doom slowly!
Burning Mandala!
What?!
It doesn't matter how many of you there are!
Play with them as well!
Shine Aqua Illusion!
Venus Love-Me Chain!
Sparkling Wide Pressure!
He went outside in his condition?
Luna...
Hime, you're in trouble...
Princess Snow Kaguya...
is trying to freeze the Earth...
Someone tell Hime about Snow Kaguya...
Deep...
Fire...
Crescent...
World...
Sailor Soldiers, looks like this is it.
This is the end!
Hold it right there!
Who's there?!
Sailor Moon!
The last of the Sailor Soldiers.
Well, isn't it beautiful?
Earth will soon be a world of snow and ice,
and become part of my collection.
Collection?
I'm sorry, but we have no intention of being one of your accessories!
You shall sleep forever in my ice...
Ice that never melts!
A calm and quiet world without any worries
is quite wonderful.
I decline!
We fall in love, our hearts may break.
Hime...
Kakeru...
There are times when we lose sleep longing for someone...
and there is always pain and sorrow in our lives...
but that is what it feels to be alive!
It's because we endure suffering, that when we overcome it...
that is when true happiness comes to us!
Anyone who disobeys me ends up like this!
This universe is all mine!
You're too selfish to understand how beautiful it is to love someone!
I don't care what happens to me. I just want to save Kakeru.
Crisis Make-Up!
What's this?
If I were only human, I could at least pretend to be his Princess Kaguya.
Rainbow Moon...
Heart Ache!
I will finally put an end to you this time!
This world of ice that you think is so beautiful
is only a world of death!
You seem to be in pain.
Allow me to remove that pain from you now!
There is no beauty in a world that is completely still.
Super Sailor Moon!
If you use the Silver Crystal, you'll die!
I won't let her die!
Everyone, protect her!
However, by the power of love and friendship,
the Silver Crystal Power dissolved the darkness and saved Earth.
That's it!
Everyone, we can create the legendary power of love and friendship!
Silver Crystal Power!
Sailor Chibi Moon,
join the others and help protect Sailor Moon.
Right!
Everyone...
To a world that nurtures life!
Silver Crystal Power!
Take this!
This light...
It can't be the same light from...
The stars of the universe keep moving as they nurture lives.
Can't you hear their breaths?
We, on this little planet we call Earth, were given lives.
They may be insignificant lives,
but we want to nurture these precious lives that we were given.
Please, even if only for one night...
Luna...
Turn Luna into a human.
Turn into Princess Kaguya!
Who are you?
I'm Princess Kaguya.
Princess Kaguya?
It can't be...
am I in space right now?
Amazing!
It's the sunrise!
To be able to see such a scene...
You are...
Kakeru, I'm finally here.
The beautiful Earth...
The beautiful sunrise...
A goddess?
A goddess of the moon?
Kakeru, what you were saying was...
You must live on!
When your true Princess Kaguya lands on Earth once more,
you have to be there to greet her!
You must live on for the one you love!
My dream came true. Thank you, Lu—
I can't stay at your side.
I love you, my spaceman...
Usa!
Usagi!
Luna...
Miss Nayotake, what is your reaction to your flight?
How was it?
Give us a word!
Please, say something!
I saw Princess Kaguya on the moon.
Is that a joke?
Was that a joke you were thinking of?
What was the impression you got from your first space flight?
Kakeru!
Hime...
I'm so glad...
Luna, are you really all right?
Yes!
After all, I'm a cat.
What's this?
Sugar stars?
Welcome home, Luna!
Artemis, why?
I'll always be here for you.
Artemis!
Mamo...
