''Manga/SailorMoon'' is a manga series widely regarded as one of the defining {{Shoujo}} series of TheNineties. Not only did it kickstart its [[Franchise/SailorMoon own multimedia franchise]], but it also codified several MagicalGirlWarrior and {{Shoujo}} tropes and thus largely remains in the public consciousness. As a result, there are quite a few characters that reference, homage, or parody its main cast, the Sailor Senshi, especially its protagonist, Usagi Tsukino/Sailor Moon.
The Sailor Senshi[[note]]variously translated as "Sailor Scout", "Sailor Guardian", or "Sailor Soldier"[[/note]] are young, female {{Magical Girl Warrior}}s themed after their respective celestial domains -- there's (at least) one for every planet, plus Pluto and the Moon -- who battle several cosmic foes. Common tip-offs that a character is based on the ''Sailor Moon'' cast include:
* A SailorFuku-like outfit, inspired by the girls' color-coded attire.
* A TransformationSequence.
* A [[CosmicMotifs space theme]] and/or a StellarName.
* Possessing magical powers, especially if they are a MagicalGirl or MagicalGirlWarrior.
* An InTheNameOfTheMoon catchphrase, bonus points if they do [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/The_Name_Of_The_Moon_colorfix_5744.png the iconic pose]] associated with it.
* Have a past involving royalty, reincarnation, space, or some combination thereof -- Sailor Moon herself is Princess Serenity of the Moon Kingdom reincarnated into an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent.
* Evoking one of them in appearance and personality -- for example, Sailor Venus's long blonde hair with a red bow, Sailor Jupiter's brunette bangs and ponytail, or Sailor Moon's OdangoHair paired with long twintails. The latter is also considered one of the codifiers of the StockShoujoHeroine in terms of personality, being a sweet and naive klutz who nevertheless comes into her own.
SubTrope of FountainOfExpies. Not to be confused with SailorEarth, which is named for a common ''Sailor Moon'' fandom way of creating an OriginalCharacter. See also StockShoujoHeroine.

* ''Literature/SailorNothing'' is a DeconstructiveParody of the ''Sailor Moon'' series and MagicalGirl works as a whole. Himei, or "Sailor Salvation" as she's known, JumpedAtTheCall to become a MagicalGirlWarrior several years ago as an elementary student, but quickly found out that being a Magical Girl is closer to being a {{Child Soldier|s}} than a KidHero. She's a world-weary and depressed teenager, with no one to talk to about her troubles due to TheMasquerade. Himei wants desperately to stop being Sailor Salvation but she can't stop the urge to help others.

* According to the character designer, ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'''s genderbent version of Finn, Fionna, is InspiredBy Usagi. Nods to the character include wearing a rabbit hat and a dress that evokes one of Usagi's.
* ''WesternAnimation/MegasXLR'': The Ultra-Cadets from "Ultra Chicks" are blatant versions of the Sailor Scouts, since they look like young women in sailor outfits and have {{Stellar|Name}} ThemeNaming (Galaxia, Comet, Pulsar, and Nova). Only difference is that they turn into giant robots when they transform.
* Mina Loveberry of ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'' is a pretty blatant ''Sailor Moon'' send-up. She shares Usagi's odango/twintail hairstyle, has magical powers, and several aspects of her character reference ''Sailor Moon'': her bunny earrings refer to Usagi's name ("bunny"), she has a rounded bow at her collar similar to the Senshi's outfit, and her name is a shortened version of Minako's/Sailor Venus's name. Unlike Usagi, however, she's completely bonkers.

The Sailor Senshi[[note]]variously translated as "Sailor Scout", "Sailor Guardian", or "Sailor Soldier"[[/note]] are young, female {{Magical Girl Warrior}}s themed after their respective celestial domains -- there's (at least) one for every planet, plus Pluto and the Moon -- who battle several cosmic foes. Common tip-offs that a character is based on the ''Sailor Moon'' cast include:
* A SailorFuku-like outfit, inspired by the girls' color-coded attire.
* A TransformationSequence.
* A [[CosmicMotifs space theme]] and/or a StellarName.
* Possessing magical powers, especially if they are a MagicalGirl or MagicalGirlWarrior.
* An InTheNameOfTheMoon catchphrase, bonus points if they do [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/The_Name_Of_The_Moon_colorfix_5744.png the iconic pose]] associated with it.
* Have a past involving royalty, reincarnation, space, or some combination thereof -- Sailor Moon herself is Princess Serenity of the Moon Kingdom reincarnated into an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent.
* Evoking one of them in appearance and personality -- for example, Sailor Venus's long blonde hair with a red bow, Sailor Jupiter's brunette bangs and ponytail, or Sailor Moon's OdangoHair paired with long twintails. The latter is also considered one of the codifiers of the StockShoujoHeroine in terms of personality, being a sweet and naive klutz who nevertheless comes into her own.
SubTrope of FountainOfExpies. Not to be confused with SailorEarth, which is named for a common ''Sailor Moon'' fandom way of creating an OriginalCharacter. See also StockShoujoHeroine.
Note that this is specifically for characters themed around the senshi -- for other references to the franchise, go to [[ReferencedBy/SailorMoon ReferencedBy.Sailor Moon]].

[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* Marucho's Bakugan Elfin of ''Manga/{{Bakugan}}''. She visually evokes Usagi in appearance (she is blonde, wears a hairstyle resembling a frog head, but whose "eyes" correspond to Usagi's buns, and with long finlike appendages that correspond to Usagi's long pigtails). She has a long, magical girl-like TransformationSequence, and strikes the InTheNameOfTheMoon pose.

* In ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'', Neo-Sweden's Gundam -- a giant {{Fembot}} with long blonde "hair" and a blue SailorFuku-like coloring -- is pretty much Usagi/Sailor Moon herself in giant mecha form.

* ''ComicBook/GhostRider'' villain Skin-Bender [[https://www.newsarama.com/4640-jason-aaron-putting-ghost-rider-heaven-s-on-fire-out-p-2.html is visually]] modeled after Sailor Venus. Not only does she have long blonde hair with a red bow and dressed in a sailor-like outfit, but her slender figure and BigAnimeEyes make her look creepy in a comic book world.

[[folder:Video Games]]
* In ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'', the Star Guardian skins are a blatant send-up to ''Sailor Moon'', with their frilly magical girl designs, cosmic-based powers, TransformationSequence recall animation, and how the champions are {{Ordinary High School Student}}s when off the clock. Lux in particular has the line, "In the name of Demacia, I will punish you!" even without the skin.

[[folder:Webcomics]]
* Princess Halesia from ''Webcomic/HarpyGee'' is a MagicalGirl with an outfit resembling a SailorFuku.
* Lovely Celestial Angel Amelia from ''Webcomic/{{Henchgirl}}'' fits the bill. She has a transformation that resembles that of the Sailor Senshi, she has a four-legged sidekick, and wields magic through a magic wand and artifacts.
* ''Webcomic/{{Sonichu}}'' has Sailor Megtune, a Sailor Soldier who watches over the City of [=CWCVille=] alongside her trusty sidekick. She's a Senshi in appearance, personality, and backstory, being the secret superpowered identity of an ordinary girl.
