The official website for the two-part anime film Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos The Movie posted a main visual and full trailer today. “Sailor Guardians, The final battle begins. I believe the future will come” is the official tagline for the film. The first part of the film is set to be released in Japan on June 9th, 2023. The second part will follow on June 30th.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos The Movie serves as the final arc for the Sailor Moon reboot series. The reboot, Sailor Moon Crystal, first began in 2014. The story is based on the Shadow Galactica arc of Naoko Takeuchi’s Sailor Moon manga. A new enemy organization, Shadow Galactica, which seeks to conquer the galaxy, targets the Sailor Guardians. They are led by Eternal Sailor Moon, and all have orders to steal the Sailor Crystal, the source of all their power.
The Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos The Movie first trailer features the film’s theme song, “Tsuki no Hana” (Moon Flower), sung by Daoko. The singer is known for her collaboration work with Kenshi Yonezu on the theme song for the 2017 film Fireworks.

In regards to the theme song confirmation, Daoko went on post a message to her fans. The translation for the letter reads;
“I still remember that I was awestruck by the noble and beautiful Sailor Guardians when I saw them for the first time. The thrill of the transformation scenes was particularly intense. I get a thrill out of watching it even now. I was so happy and distraught when I heard that I had been offered the chance to work on the series that has continued to fascinate me.

In creating the music, I watched the original manga and the anime over and over again to gain a deeper input into the worldview. I believe that the song embodies the strong and noble Sailor Guardians while at the same time combining the maiden’s fragility and beauty. As a fan, I am truly excited about the release of the films. Let’s wait excitedly together!
I look forward to seeing you all at the theater to listen to “Tsuki no Hana.”
As of now, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos The Movie does not have a confirmed western release date.
