The fate of such an ordinary girl, Usagi changes completely one day when she meets Luna, a black cat with a crescent mark on her forehead who speaks human language.

According to Luna, a messager from the moon, Usagi is a chosen Sailor Senshi whose mission is to defeat evil enemies. Then, along with the other Sailor Senshi, they must find the Moon Princess. Usagi didn't understand why this happened so suddenly, she was given a nice transformation brooch and a disguise pen, and she was in a good mood.

"It was a little thrilling, but it was quite good." Said Usagi, who was so naive about the current situation that it seemed like a lie, thinking nothing of the big change that happened to her.

At that time, Queen Beryl, the evil enemy of the evil Dark Kingdom, ordered her army of Jadeites and beautiful boys under her command to send terrifying demons to Earth one after another in order to steal the energy from the young people of Earth.
