Droid

Droids (ドロイド) were monsters used by the Black Moon Clan for combat purposes.

Manga

Droids in the manga

In the manga, the Droids were manufactured by Saphir, using the power of the Evil Black Crystal, and were all very similar in shape and form. According to the Materials Collection, the manga Droids were like robots resembling sand figurines; they had no eyes or mouths, and they could only produce screeching noises rather than words.

Veneti and Aquatici were considered perfect Droids by Saphir.

Anime

In the anime, all of the Droids were very different looking individuals, and all of them could talk. When they were destroyed, however, they dissolved into a pile of sand, implying that they were similar to their manga counterparts in at least that respect.

Droids often disguised themselves as ordinary humans. Similar to the Youma in the first season, they did not have a phrase they would shout as they were destroyed.

Three types of generic Droids were also present, referred to as Shade, Large Shade and Heavy Shade. The first two resembled the Droids from the manga, while the third was a shorter and fatter variation of those.

Many Droids also appeared in Sailor Moon: Another Story as minor enemies.
