## Appearance

### Civilian

Yume has round light orange eyes and long lilac hair. She wears her hair loose but has an odango bun on the right. Her hair is fringed and parted at the left like her father's hair. Yume's skin is fair and she has twin beauty marks on her cheeks. She wears silver stud earrings and a simple ring on her right pinky finger. After getting her transformation item, she wears its ring form on her right pinky finger alongside her other one.

She is usually seen wearing her school uniform. The uniform consists of a white long sleeved blouse with red sleeve cuffs and a red notched sailor collar with a white stripe. There is a red pleated skirt with a frilly white petticoat underneath, the frills can be seen peeking out. A blue tie is tied underneath the collar and there is a white triangular area underneath the collar that run adjacent to the collar. The triangular area has a red stripe on it.

### Sailor Guardian

Sailor Moon wears a white leotard with sewn in chest-armor, light blue sailor collar with two white stripes, forearm length white fingerless gloves with three light pink arm fittings, white shoulder pads with a light blue tint, and a puffy v-shaped belt with a light blue skirt attached. She has a violet bow in the front with her brooch fastened to it and a light pink bow in the back on her skirt. Sailor Moon has light blue boots that go up to her knees with a triangular shape and a white border on the top, the heels are short. She has a covering over her bun that is circular with a light pink center and a white border. Like her predecessors, Sailor Moon wears a golden tiara with a light blue gem in the center. She wears a light pink choker with a golden crescent charm on the front, and golden dangling moons attached to silver stud earrings.

When transformed, she gains a light pink manicure and her hair takes on a pink ombre on the very tips of her hair. The pink color is the same as her mother's hair color.

## Sailor Moon

Neo Sailor Moon is the technical title for the third Sailor Guardian named Sailor Moon that is used to differentiate between the different holders of the name. Because her grandmother and mother are no longer actively using the title of Sailor Moon, Yume assumes the name Sailor Moon rather than Neo Sailor Moon.

Sailor Moon is the leader of the current generation of Sailor Guardians, the title passing down from mother to daughter based off of generation. Sailor Moon has powers over healing, purification, and the embodiments of moonlight. Her attacks and powers are amplified with the support of her friends and allies.

Yume can transform into Sailor Moon by calling out her transformation phrase as long as she has her transformation item with her.

### Items

* **Neo Moon Transformation Charm Brooch**

### Attacks

* **Neo Moon Heavenly Beam**
* **Neo Moon Tiara Halo**

## Nomenclature & Etymology

### Etymology

**Yume** is written in the kanji 夢 which means "dream."

**Kogane:** The kanji of the name is broken up into 黄 (yellow) and 金 (metal); thus it means "gold."

When her full-name is said in the Japanese naming order, her name is Kogane Yume (黄金 夢). Her name loosely translates as "golden dream," when in this order. Golden dream refers to the Dream Arc of the original Sailor Moon manga; the golden crystal and dreams being a focal point.
