Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos the Movie: The Anticipated Return of an Iconic Franchise

The Sailor Moon franchise is getting an addition, as the official YouTube channel recently released a trailer for "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos the Movie." This two-part anime film will bring to life the final "Shadow Galactica" arc of Naoko Takeuchi's beloved Sailor Moon manga. At the center of this upcoming adaptation are the Three Lights/Sailor Starlights.



The casting details for this project reveal an all-star lineup. Saori Hayami, Marina Inoue, and Ayane Sakura will play the roles of Taiki Kō/Sailor Star Maker, Seiya Kō/Sailor Star Fighter, and Yaten Kō/Sailor Star Healer, respectively. Additionally, Nana Mizuki, Megumi Hayashibara, and Kotono Mitsuishi will portray Princess Kakyū, Sailor Galaxia, and Chibi Chibi. Mitsuishi will reprise her iconic role as Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon alongside her new character.

In the upcoming films, set to hit theaters on June 9 and June 30, a recurring cast will appear, further enhancing the franchise's nostalgia and continuity.

At the helm of these films is director Tomoya Takahashi, with Kazuyuki Fudeyasu writing the scripts. Kazuko Tadano, responsible for the character design of the original Sailor Moon anime, will continue her work on this project, while Yasuharu Takanashi will compose the music. Yumiko Soraga takes on the role of art director, and Daoko will perform the theme song "Tsuki no Hana" (Moon Flower).

These films follow the two-part anime film project "Pretty Guardians Sailor Moon Eternal The Movie," which replaced a fourth season of Sailor Moon Crystal and adapted the "Dead Moon" arc of the original manga.
