Sailor Saturn (Tomoe Hotaru) is a character from the Japanese anime "Bishoujo Senshi Seera Muun" (Japanese title), also known as "Sailormoon" by Naoko Takeuchi.
This anime is about a team of teen-aged girls known as the Sailor Senshi destined to defend the Earth from the evil villain's desires for destruction and conquer.
The girls have special powers when they transform into the Sailor-suited pretty warriors of their own guardian planets.
The Sailor Senshi- Sailormoon, along with the Inner Senshi (Sailormercury, Sailormars, Sailorjupiter and Sailorvenus).
Who is, then Sailorsaturn? She is actually another Sailor Senshi who appears in the Super Series (Season 3), which is the series after the Dark Moon Family. However, she is not an ordinary Sailor Senshi...
Warning: Below contains spoilers of the Super Series
With the defeat of Dark Moon Family, the girls once again have a short period of rest. Though soon, a new enemy appears, known as the Death Busters, who are searching for pure heart crystals in people. A mysterious professor who creates ‘daimons’ (that do the actual attacking) leads these enemies. These creatures are delivered and instructed by a women wearing red- Kaolinite.
This is also the series where two powerful new Sailor Senshi appear- Sailoruranus (true identity-Tenou Haruka) and Sailorneptune (Kaiou Michiru) who seem to have their own mission- to find the three talismans located in pure heart crystals. These three talismans are supposed to from an item known as the Holy Grail, which will reveal their messiah, who has the power to save the world.
Chibiusa also returns from the future from the thirtieth century Crystal Tokyo as a Sailor Senshi in training, Sailor Chibimoon.
As Eudial (Kaolinite's replacement since she seemed to have died-but really, she becomes Professor Tomoe's assistant, known as Kaori) and Sailormoon both charge to get the Holy Grail, Sailormoon manages to fall and touch it first, and it changed her to Super Sailormoon. At first, Outer Senshi thought Sailormoon was the true messiah, but Sailormoon’s super form didn’t last long and it changed back not long. This showed that she was not strong enough to hold the power, but the Outers said she could keep it until they found the True Messiah.
Soon, Sailor Uranus and Neptune discover that the talismans they were search for were actually inside their very own heart crystal all along. The enemy takes the talismans, but the day was saved as Sailor Pluto, the guardian of the time Gate, returns and retrieves the items and produces her own talisman- the Garnet Orb that sits on her Time Key, and the three talismans from the Holy Grail.
"Maybe there is someone close to you," she suggested, "who would be able to control the cup."
"Maybe there is," said the professor, "maybe there is..."
