Sailor Moon anime licensors VIZ reveal that Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: The Complete Fifth Season Blu-ray will be released on May 28, 2024, allowing fans to own the final season in its entirety this spring.
VIZ revealed via X (formerly Twitter), "Sailor Moon and the Sailor Guardians are about to face their greatest challenge yet—high school! Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: The Complete Fifth Season releases May 28, 2024." Previously, the final season was split across two sets of discs, with the first covering from episodes 168 to 183 and the second covering from 184 to 200. Readers can check out the announcement post below.
Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: The Complete Fifth Season comes at a far more affordable price compared to previous distributions, with VIZ provisionally pricing the set at $49.99 for all 33 episodes. The set comes with the technical description: "6-Disc Blu-ray Set, 34 Episodes (167-200), 1080p HD, 4:3 Aspect Ratio, English Subtitles, English and Japanese Stereo 2.0 Audio" and the special features: "Cast Interviews, Art Galleries, Clean Opening and Ending, and more."
Sailor Moon's New Box Set Is a Win for Non-American Viewers and Fans of Physical Media
The box set is a big boon, particularly for fans of physical media and Sailor Moon fans outside the U.S. All five seasons of Sailor Moon are currently streaming on Hulu in the U.S. but they remain inaccessible for streaming for many other regions. U.S. fans can also watch Sailor Moon for free on PlutoTV.
Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: The Complete Fifth Season is officially described by VIZ: "Sailor Moon and the Sailor Guardians are about to face their greatest challenge yet—high school! But as the girls take their next big step in life, a mysterious force frees the evil Queen Nehalennia! Who could be behind this new wave of evil? And why are the Sailor Star Lights so resistant to working with Sailor Moon?" The franchise most recently concluded its remake with the Sailor Moon Cosmos film in June 2023.
