Masanobu Narita is a minor character who appears exclusively in the live-action television series Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon. He is introduced in Act 9 as the wealthy president of a large company. Narita owns a large, impressive jewel that he believes could be the legendary Silver Crystal, a powerful artifact sought by multiple parties. His background as a corporate magnate suggests a man of considerable influence and resources, and his possession of the jewel points to a personal ambition or desire to claim the crystal for himself. In the story, his role is that of a one-shot civilian who inadvertently becomes involved in the conflict surrounding the Silver Crystal, as the Dark Kingdom also covets the jewel. Narita does not form significant relationships with the main characters and has no character development or special abilities beyond his wealth and status. His appearance is brief, serving as a plot device to advance the search for the Silver Crystal.
