Death Busters (デスムスターズ, Desu BasutÄ zu) are a group of
fictional characters in the Sailor Moon manga series written by Naoko
Takeuchi. This group comprises the antagonists of the third major
story arc, which is called the Infinity in the manga, Sailor Moon S in
the first anime adaptation, and Death Busters in Sailor Moon Crystal.
They are first introduced in chapter #24 "Infinity 1 â€" Premonition",
originally published in Japan on July 7, 1994. In the Cloverway
English adaptation, they are called the "Heart Snatchers".Originally
from the "Tau Ceti Star System" in another dimension, the Death
Busters acquire human host bodies to act through with Kaolinite and
Professor Tomoe as acting leaders. Based in Mugen
Academy(ç„¡é™ å¦åœ', Mugen Gakuen, Literally "Infinity Academy"), an
elite high school built in the middle of Tokyo's Sankakusu
District(三è§'州区, Sankakusu-ku, Literally "Delta District"), the
Death Busters work to gather human souls which would prolong their
dying homeworld. Their ultimate goal is the revival of their commander
Mistress 9 so they can bring their master Pharaoh 90 to Earth and
terraform it into a new home at the cost of the current life
forms.Professor Souichi Tomoe (土è 創一, Tomoe SÅ ichi Kyouju) is
the leader of the Death Busters and Hotaru Tomoe's father. A genetic
scientist forced out of the scientific community for his unethical
experiments, he sold his findings to companies and bought the entire
Sankakusu District to continue his research to create "Super Beings".
But a fire occurs in Tomoe's apartment that killed his wife Keiko and
gravely wounded his daughter Hotaru. Tomoe saves his daughter by
outfitting her body with cybernetic limbs during a freak storm that
brought the Death Busters to Earth, the aliens apparently attracted to
his darkness. Witnessing his assistant be reborn as Kaolinite, Tomoe
sold his soul to Pharaoh 90 and willfully discards his humanity by
ingesting a Daimon Egg to become a hybrid as he began to build Mugen
Academy while working to perfect the stability of Daimon/human
hybrids. When Super Sailor Moon and the Outer Guardians arrive at his
lab and dispatch his Daimon test subjects, Tomoe changes into his
Daimon form Germatoid (ゲルマトイド, Gerumatoido). Sailor Moon
is forced to kill Tomoe with her Rainbow Moon Heart Ache, Hotaru
briefly seen saying goodbye to her father while accepting that he died
a long time ago after her mother's death.In the first anime, Hotaru's
injury and the Death Busters' arrival occur at the same time.
Professor Tomoe's story is the same with the exception that he was
forcefully possessed by Germatoid. Tomoe also survives the ordeal as
Germatoid leaves his body and is destroyed by Sailor Uranus and
Neptune, attempting to reach Hotaru. Following the final battle, Tomoe
loses his memories as he is entrusted with his reborn daughter's care
until the season premiere of Sailor Stars, when Setsuna Meioh comes to
retrieve her, and after that he is not seen again in the series.
