Season chronology

The fifth season of the Sailor Moon anime series, titled Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon Sailor Stars[1][2] (美少女戦士セーラームーン セーラースターズ Bishōjo Senshi Sērā Mūn Sērā Sutāzu), was directed by Takuya Igarashi and produced by Toei Animation. Like the rest of the Sailor Moon series, it follows the adventures of Usagi Tsukino and her fellow Sailor Soldiers. The series is divided into two story arcs. The first six episodes consist of a self-contained arc in which the Sailor Soldiers encounter Queen Nehelenia again. The remaining 28 episodes adapt material from the Sailor Moon manga by Naoko Takeuchi, in which the Sailor Soldiers meet up with the Sailor Starlights, led by Princess Kakyuu. They discover that Sailor Galaxia, the leader of the "Shadow Galactica" organization and a corrupted Sailor Soldier, plans to increase her powers and rule the galaxy.

The season began broadcasting on TV Asahi on March 9, 1996 and ended on February 8, 1997 for 34 episodes. It was later released on DVD in six compilations with five episodes, by Toei, from September 26 to November 21, 2005.[3][4] In May 2014, Viz Media announced that they licensed the series from the start for an uncut release, and also that they would eventually plan to release the fifth season on Blu-ray and DVD. On December 14, 2015, Viz Media streamed the first episode of Sailor Moon Sailor Stars, along with the series finale of Sailor Moon SuperS, on Hulu.

Three pieces of theme music were used: one opening theme and two ending themes. The opening theme, titled "Sailor Star Song", is performed by Kae Hanazawa. The ending theme, used for the first 33 episodes, is "Kaze mo Sora mo Kitto..." performed by Arisa Mizuki. The second and final ending theme is "Moonlight Densetsu" performed by Moon Lips.
