The Sailor Moon manga series features an extensive cast of characters
created by Naoko Takeuchi. The series takes place in Tokyo, Japan,
where the Sailor Guardians(セーラー戦士, SÄ"rÄ Senshi), a group
of ten magical girls, are formed to combat an assortment of
antagonists attempting to take over the Earth, the Solar System, and
the Milky Way galaxy. Each Guardian undergoes a transformation which
grants her a uniform in her own theme colors and a unique elemental
power. The ten Sailor Guardians are named after the planets of the
Solar System, with the exception of Earth but including its moon.
While many of the characters are humans with superhuman strength and
magical abilities, the cast also includes anthropomorphic animals and
extraterrestrial lifeforms.The series follows the adventures of the
titular protagonist, Sailor Moon, her lover Tuxedo Mask, and her
guardians: Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus. They are later
joined by Chibiusa (Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask's daughter from the
future) and four more guardians: Sailors Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, and
Saturn. The series' antagonists include the Dark Kingdom, the Black
Moon Clan, the Death Busters, the Dead Moon Circus, and Shadow
Galactica.Takeuchi's initial concept was a story called Codename:
Sailor V, in which Sailor V discovers her magical powers and protects
the people of Earth. After the Codename: Sailor V manga was proposed
for an anime adaptation, Takeuchi changed her concept to include ten
superheroines who defend the galaxy. The manga's anime, live-action,
musical, and video game adaptations feature some original characters
created by the production staff and not by Takeuchi.Naoko Takeuchi
initially wrote Codename: Sailor V, a one-shot manga which focused on
Sailor Venus. When Sailor V was proposed for an anime adaptation by
Toei Animation, Takeuchi changed the concept to include Sailor Venus
as a part of a "sentai" (team of five) and created the characters of
Sailors Moon, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter.
