  • JP: August 27, 1993
  • EU: December 31, 1994
Release years by system:
1993—Super Nintendo Entertainment System[5]
Notes:
  • Beat 'em up video game, developed by Angel in 1993, and ported to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was localized in Europe exclusively in French in 1994.
  • A version for the Sega Mega Drive (known as the Genesis in North America) was developed and published by Ma-Ba, although certain elements were recycled from the Super NES version.
  • The game is set in the first series of Sailor Moon, and the players take control of one or two of the five heroines. Each Sailor Soldier has some sequences of blows, three aerial attacks (neutral, moving forward/backward, downward) and a special charge-up projectile. The enemies are the monsters of the Dark Kingdom that appeared in the anime, but if more than one of the same kind appears at once, the others use palette swaps.
  • The Mega Drive version features most of the stages from the Super NES version but a few were removed and replaced. Some of the boss battles are different as well, and a new hidden final boss, Queen Metaria is featured when playing on Hard Mode. The Mega Drive counterpart does not contain any of the music from the Super NES game, with the exception of the main theme song at the title screen. Bosses also has their own song rather than a generic theme for all of them. The game has different endings for each playable character.

  • Like the Mega Drive version of the previous game, the bosses have their own theme music. By playing the game on hard mode, there is a minor change to the ending that involves Sailor Pluto. Monsters in this game were all droids. Like the previous game, there are several different shades of them. One of the other differences from the first game is the special attack that destroys all on-screen enemies.
