Sailor Saturn
A main character in the Sailor Moon meta-series, Sailor Saturn, alias Hotaru Tomoe in her civilian appearances, is a schoolgirl touched by a serious health problem. Sailor Saturn suffers from seizures caused by her health problems but she also distinguishes herself by the unique powers that she becomes aware of pretty late. She makes a great team with Chibiusa and Usagi, two other main characters, who are her best friends. In day-to-day life, Sailor Saturn is not on good terms with her classmates, both because of her seizures and the unique capacities she possesses. Sailor Saturn is present in the manga and the animated series of Sailor Moon and the specifics of her life are usually provided in the manga form mainly rather than in the animations.
If in one version she has cybernetics attachments on her body, after her rebirth in the animated versions, she is completely human. Modifications in plot and character evolutions vary from one presentation form to another; thus, Sailor Saturn fluctuates in terms of age for instance. First she is 13 then she gets reborn and is pictured as a five-year old girl, only to grow into a 13 year old all over again. As for her secret powers, Sailor Saturn learns about their existence only when Sailor Uranus, Neptune and Pluto use their talismans together and make her react.
Though possessing a planetary destructive weapon, Sailor Saturn is a world savior and a redeemer, allowing mankind to get reborn by putting an end to the destructions caused by the Silver Millennium kingdom. After the rebirth and the assumption of a new life, Sailor Saturn is a lot more vivid and definitely happier. She dreams of becoming a nurse some day, particularly as she has minor healing powers. In philosophical terms, Sailor Saturn represents the all necessary doom: rebirth is only envisaged in the presence of death, thus, her weapon, the Silence Glaive can throw a world into complete destruction or annihilation only to make it resurge in a purer form later.
With every number in the manga series, Sailor Saturn gains more and more powers every day. Her uniform shows the changes in her evolution, since after each major initiating happening, an apparel item is added to indicate the modifications. It surely takes one a lot of patience to follow episode after episode, particularly since one can easily lose track of the events with all the things happening in this world of super heroes that are anything but common. Present in Japanese and English variants of the series, Sailor Saturn makes the picture of this entertainment form complete.
