Sailor Moon is known throughout the world for being a magical girl series. It is truly one of a kind and it is still regarded as one of the best manga and anime of all time. The story revolves around a girl named Usagi who finds a cat named Luna and later discovers she is one of the Sailor Scouts. If there is something that makes Sailor Moon memorable, it is the iconic transformation scenes when Usagi and others get ready to fight evil by moonlight. Not a lot of people mention this, but the villains in Sailor Moon are one of the best pieces in the story.

The villains, including Queen Beryl and the Black Moon Clan, start off with generic motives, such as world domination, but their goals and reasons are justified. Then when the Death Busters arrived, they wanted to destroy everything in their path. Despite being evil, Sailor Moon fans learn more about theꦏm and c🤪an even sympathize with them, well, most of them. Even Sailor Moon herself would do what she can to give some of the villains her sympathy and start a new life.

This list will cover villains that appear in the manga, 90s anime, and Crystal. Over the eighteen original manga volumes, two hundred episodes, and the currently running anime reboot, the Sailor Moon villains made their mark in the different adaptations of the overall story. Here are twenty-five Sailor Moon villains ranked from weakest to strongest.

25 ♚ All Monster 💦Of The Day Villains

This spot belongs to a category of villains. They might have a huge variety, such as Youma and Bonbon babies, they are next to nothing when it comes to strength. They are also creations of the more important♒ villains, such as Queen Beryl and the Black Moon Clan.

These villains are a huge standout in the🐼 90s anime adaptation.

Their designs are unique and aesthetically creative. Despite their memorability, they usually last for one episode and are pushovers once Sailor Moon and the other Sailor S﷽couts use t𒅌eamwork to defeat them.

24 Zirconia

Zirconia was created from Queen Nehellenia’s fears of growing old and becoming ugly. As far as her overall strength, she fails in comparison to the other villains on this list. If you think about it, she acts mostly as a placeholder for Nehellenia while she is trapped in th𝓀e mirror world.

She does help her ꦆout in giving orders to the Amazon Quartet and creating the Amazon Trio. Her role was finished when Neh💃ellenia arrived on Earth, and she was never seen again.

23 💟 Amazon Trio ℱ

The Amazon Trio consisting of Tiger’s Eye, Hawk’s Eye, and Fish Eye are more of the sympathetic villains. Theyꦰ were turned into humans in two different ways; by PallaPalla in the manga, and by Zirconia in the anime.

Their roles in both versions are vastly different, as the anime gave them a bigger role, while given a much smaller role in the manga. What makes them pretty weak is that in the manga, they were defeated by Sailors Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter when targeting them. The anime, on the other hand, portrays them as loving their human lives and never wanting to be villa🌠ins.

22 ✨ Ail And 🥀An

This duo only appears in the 90s anime, but their roles as villains were a nice start to Sailor Moon R, even if the Sailor Scouts getting their memories wiped off is ridiculous. Ail and An came from a planet wไhere the Makaiju Tree gives them life.

They only thought what they were doing is right, but they learned from their mistakes. The energy the tree was feeding off of made it sick, and it needed love. While not competent for strength, 💎Ail and An were redeemed and dedicated their time to the Makiju Tree, leaving Earth in the process.

21 Jadeite

Jadeite is the first of the Four Heavenly Kings, bꦿut he is the weakest. He barely lasts in the manga, as when Sailor Mars awakens, she is the one who took his life. The first anime has him be the one to create minions to fulfill Queen Beryl’💝s goal to find the Silver Crystal and take over the world. And all of the time, he fails.

In Crystal, he lives a bit longer, but his role was diminished greatly. He would make small appearances until he and the others regain their memories as Prince Endymion’s general✃s.

20 Nephrite

Nephrite’s plotlines are very different in the manga and 90s anime. In the latter, he is struggling from his duty and his feelings for Usagi’s school friend Naru. He replaces Jadeite and does a better job than him, but h♊is struggles prevent him from showing his true potential.

In the manga and Crystal, he controlled a youma that feeds on human love, but w💯as defe༺ated by Sailor Jupiter. He wanted to redeem himself to Queen Beryl but got ridiculed by Zoisite.

19 Rubeus

Rubeus is the first of the Black Moon Clan to appear on this list, and his role is more of a pawn who uses the Ayaka𓄧shi Sisters to do his biddings. He is also loyal to Prince Demande, but grows suspicious towards Wiseman, which would result in his downfal⛄l.

He does manage to capture Sailors Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter, but b🍸efore he could get Venus, Sailor Moon andඣ Tuxedo Mask defeated him. If he were shown to do more stuff on his own, he could have been more powerful.

18 Esmeraude

Esmeraude slightly beats out Rubeus, but their power is arguably equal. In the manga and Crystal, she is more focused on taking out Sailor Moon and the others when t🌠hey arrived in Crystal Tokyo, but she ends up biting the dust when she went by herself to ꦆattack them.

In the 90s anime🍎, she is in love with Prince Demande, and her jealously ꦦof Sailor Moon motivates her to turn to Wiseman for more power. This would backfire greatly, turning her into a dragon and being defeated by the Sailor Scouts.

17 Witches 5

Don’t let the name fool you;ཧ there are actually six members. They are named Eudial, Mimete, Viluy, Tellu, and Cyprine, who shares a mind and body with Ptilol. They are loyal to Professor Tomoe, who also created them, and Kaolinite.

In the 90s anime, they are extremely incompetent.

They want the professor’s attention but end up taking out one another while trying to take down the Sailor Scouts. In the manga and Crystal, they put up a challenge and were defeated, but w🅰ere revived by Kaolinite. The Outer Sailor Scouts were essential for them to be defeated for good, since thꦍey captured the Inner Sailor Scouts.

16 Professor Tomoe 🐠 🤡

This was once a man who founded the Infinity Academy and was even a famous scientist. Professor Tomoe follows the mad scientist trope down to the book and he is despicable for making Hotaru✱ have cybernetic body parts and have a Daimon Egg in her.

In the 90s anime, he is more sympathetic since he wanted to save his daughter, but like with the manga and Crystal, he serves under Pharaoh 90. He might not look like he does much, but the Germatoid Daimon that resides within him gives him more time to do insan꧅e experimentations and create the Witches 5.
