Sailor Pluto was the sixth Sailor Senshi introduced in the series. Her civilian identity was Setsuna Meiou.

Sailor Pluto was the guardian of the Underworld (冥土の番人) stationed at the Space-Time Door to stop intruders trying to access it. She referred to herself as the "Soldier of Revolution" (変革の戦士) and the "Soldier of Space-Time" (時空の戦士), under the guardianship of the "Planet of the Underworld," referring to the literal meaning of the Japanese name for Pluto.

  • Sailor Pluto's (R, S) dominant color was black (choker, collar, elbow fittings of gloves, skirt, and boots), and her accent colors were garnet (tiara gem, earrings, and gem attached to choker) and dark maroon (bows, which were a much darker shade of brownish purple than her garnet accents and Saturn's bows). Her earrings were shaped like a thick downward-pointed arrow. Her collar did not have any stripes. Her choker had a garnet gem dangling from it. She was the only Senshi who did not have any shoulder pads before the Stars season. Her boots were similar to Moon's and Mercury's, in black with white borders.
  • After the "Super" upgrade (Stars), some changes to her costume were made. Her earrings remained the same, her choker had a yellow star attached to it, her collar had one white stripe, and the center of her front bow was a garnet heart. She had shoulder pads with translucent parts, and the back waist bow was enlarged and lengthened.

Musicals[edit]

In the musicals, Sailor Pluto was played by Miwa Hosoki, Rei Saitou, Yuki Kamiya, Seiko Nakazawa, Teruyo Watanabe, Yuuko Hosaka, Yukiko Nakae, Miho Yokoi, Mikako Ishii, and Chisato Minami. She had three image songs: "Stay Alone," "Forbidden Hades," and "Chronos Guardian."

Sailor Pluto's first appearance in the musicals was in Sailor Moon S - Usagi Ai no Senshi e no Michi, where she was only seen in silhouette, and the person portraying her was actually Sailor Jupiter's actress Kanoko, holding a Garnet Rod but wearing Sailor Jupiter's costume. Sailor Pluto appeared in person in the next musical, Sailor Moon S - Henshin - Super Senshi e no Michi.

In the musicals, Sailor Pluto mentioned an unrequited love for King Endymion of the future Silver Millennium. The song "Onna no Ronsou" compared her love to that of Queen Beryl, showing that she empathized with the Queen's plight.

Costume[edit]

  • In most of the Bandai run of the musicals, Sailor Pluto's costume was significantly different from the anime and manga versions. The collar and top layer of her skirt were a dark shade of blue, and the underskirt was purple. Both layers of her skirt had silver trim, different from all the other Sailor Senshi (except for Saturn), although earlier versions had gold trim. Her bows, front and back, were black, as were her boots and tops of gloves. Her sailor collar did have stripes, unlike the anime and manga.
  • In Petite Étrangère, her costume was more like those in the manga and anime. Her skirts, glove fittings, boots, collar, and choker were black, while her bows were brown. Her fuku had gold trim, and she wore a key-adorned chain at her waist.


Video Games[edit]

Powers[edit]

In the video games in which she appeared, Sailor Pluto used the powers standard to her appearances in other versions of canon, but the following are powers unique only to the video games.

Attacks[edit]

  • Strict Sweep - Used in Sailor Moon S: Jougai Rantou!? Shuyaku Soudatsusen and Sailor Moon SuperS: Zenin Sanka!! Shuyaku Soudatsusen.
  • Twilight - Used in Sailor Moon S for the 3DO.

Trivia[edit]

  • In the anime, the "aura" color of a Sailor Senshi was nearly always the dominant color of her fuku, but Sailor Pluto's color was sometimes black and sometimes purple.
  • In Sailor Moon Eternal, garnet red and white roses appeared in the backdrop of Sailor Pluto's signature pose as she gave her introductory speech.
