Achiral, along with his twin Chiral, worked for the Black Moon Clan, but their exact identities and roles were different in the anime and the manga.

Anime

In the anime, Achiral was a Droid belonging to Esmeraude, and he appeared in episode 81.

Manga

In the manga, Achiral and his brother Chiral formed the Boule Brothers (or, in the TokyoPop translated version, the "Artficial Jewel Brothers"). They were Esmeraude's underlings, and according to the Materials Collection, were "Twins like mirror reflections."[1]

The two participated in Code: 005, Operation: Remake. Along with Esmeraude and Chiral, he trapped Sailor Moon within a fake Crystal Palace. While trapped, a magnetic field prevented her from using her powers. Achiral was killed by the team effort of Tuxedo Mask's Tuxedo La Smoking Bomber and Sailor Venus' Venus Love-Me Chain.

Trivia

  • "Chiral" is a scientific term referring to an object that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image; an object which is non-chiral is called "achiral."
