Sailor Pluto reveals that she was revived by Neo Queen Serenity and returned from the future by her request as she, Uranus and Neptune explain their mission to Usagi, who transforms into Princess Serenity, of dealing with threats beyond the Solar System; the Death Busters being one of these threats. After learning that Mugen Academy having been closed due to the controversial disappearances, Luna convinces Chibiusa to use her friendship with Hotaru to act as a spy on Tomoe for them. Chibiusa discovers that Hotaru has some bio-mechanical parts implanted on her body and flees in fear. Soon after, a hailstorm begins and drains the Hostes of those it touches and turns them hostile. Meanwhile, Cyprine, the last of the Witches 5, carries out her mission to eliminate Haruka and is astonished to find her quarry to be a Sailor Guardian. When the other Sailor Guardians join her as well, Cyprine uses her power to manipulate the Sailor Guardians and the Outer Guardians to fight each other. Usagi, unaffected by the spell, attempts to attack Cyprine before she and her other half, Ptilol, split off as Mamoru and Chibiusa arrive to help Usagi. At Usagi's request, the three combine their powers together and summon the Legendary Holy Grail. | ||||||||

The mighty holy powers of the legendary Holy Grail restore the other Sailor Guardians' minds as they give Usagi the power to evolve into Super Sailor Moon, as she easily obliterates Cyprine and Ptilol's spell. The Talismans unexpectedly reacted to Usagi's request, and the Outer Guardians explain that in their past lives, they were all teleported to the Moon Kingdom after Metaria was sealed and witnessed its true end at the hands of Sailor Saturn, whom their Talismans had summoned. Having been reborn, the Outer Guardians explain they intend to prevent her return by killing her reincarnation: Hotaru Tomoe. As Usagi and her friends disagree, Chibiusa rushes to Hotaru's house to check on her. But Mistress 9, the Daimon entity within Hotaru that has finally gained strength from being exposed to the future Legendary Silver Crystal, takes over her host while stealing both Chibiusa's legendary Silver Crystal of the thirtieth century and soul. | ||||||||

While explaining that Mistress 9 is not Saturn, the Outer Guardians remain adamant that killing Hotaru is the only way to retrieve Chibiusa's soul as the girl's body is kept alive by Mamoru. Usagi and her leave for Mugen Academy, where Mistress 9 assumes her role as Pharaoh 90's right hand while ordering Kaolinite to deal with the Sailor Guardians. When Usagi and her friends storm Mugen Academy, they are attacked by the Witches 5 whom Kaolinite revived to enact their revenge. But the Witches 5 end up destroyed by the Outer Guardians, who come to their aid while admitting wanting to protect Usagi. The fully united Sailor Guardians then confront Kaolinite, who assumes her Daimon form before being destroyed by Usagi. Meanwhile, Hotaru's spirit inside Mistress 9 watches powerless as she swallows Chibiusa's Legendary Silver Crystal. | ||||||||
36 | 10 | "Infinity 9 Infinite Labyrinth 2" Transliteration: "Mugen Ku Rabirinsu Mugen Ni" (Japanese: 無限9「無限迷宮」2) | Masashi Abe | Yūji Kobayashi | Miho Kinjo Kazuhiro Orichimata Naoko Yamaoka (Chief Animation Director) | June 6, 2016 | October 27, 2017 | |
Enticed by the power of Chibiusa's Legendary Silver Crystal, Master Pharaoh 90 deems it a more worthy power source as he destroys the Taioron Crystal and prepares himself for his advent. The Sailor Guardians split up to search Mugen Academy building. Usagi accompanies the Outer Guardians to the basement, where they confront Professor Tomoe as he assumes his Daimon form Germatoid. Despite knowing he is human, Usagi is ultimately forced to kill Tomoe prior to the building collapsing. As Usagi flees with the Outer Guardians, her transformation dispels as she fears for the safety of the other Sailor Guardians left behind. Master Pharaoh 90 and Mistress 9 appear before her. | ||||||||

Master Pharaoh 90 begins to merge with the Earth to turn it into the next Tau Ceti Star System, but the Outer Guardians project a barrier to contain him. Mistress 9 tries to rip herself out of Hotaru's body to assume her true form, only to realize that Hotaru's soul still lives inside her and is hindering her. When Mistress 9 consumes the four Sailor Guardians’ souls, Hotaru is forced to leave her body to return their souls and Chibiusa's to their bodies. Hotaru also returns the Legendary Silver Crystal to Chibiusa before ceasing to be once Mistress 9 assumes her true form with Hotaru's body destroyed in the process. As Mistress 9 begins to weakens the Outer Guardians' barrier, the reawakened Chibiusa arrives to the battle with her desire to be strong like her mother causes a second Moon Chalice to appear. Both Usagi and Chibiusa transform into their evolved Super Sailor forms and face Mistress 9. | ||||||||

Though Usagi and Chibiusa defeat her with a combined attack, Mistress 9 allows herself to be assimilated by a fully manifested Master Pharaoh 90 as he overpowers Sailor Guardians and Mamoru while breaking the Outer Guardians' barrier to commence his assimilation of the planet. Usagi uses the Moon Chalice with the last of her friends' energy while throwing herself into Master Pharaoh 90 in an apparent sacrifice. This causes the talismans react, awakening Sailor Saturn from what remained of Hotaru's body. Explaining to the Outer Guardians that her role as a destroyer is necessary for renewal, Saturn proceeds to mortally wound Pharaoh 90 as he recognized her as the light from his visions. Saturn then prepares to swing her Silence Glaive down, the Outer Guardians explaining that Saturn intends to wipe out the entire planet with her weapon's motion. Panic-stricken, Super Sailor Chibi Moon calls out to Super Sailor Moon just as the Silence Glaive is sharply swung down on its edge. | ||||||||

With Sailor Saturn finally awakened within Hotaru, she brings the utter annihilation of both Pharaoh 90 and the world. Usagi liberates the power she amassed to deal a fatal blow on the already fatally damaged Master Pharaoh 90. Seeing no need to wipe out Earth as Usagi is still alive, Saturn instead intercepts Pharaoh 90 during his attempted escape back into the Tau Star System and has Sailor Pluto use her Dark Dome Close to seal them both away. When the Legendary Silver Crystal evolves all the other Sailor Guardians to their Super forms, Usagi briefly transforms into Neo Queen Serenity and uses her power from the Spiral Heart Moon Rod to restore the city. Shortly afterwards, an infant Hotaru appears, fully reborn with the spirit of Saturn once again slumbering within her, prompting the Outer Guardians deciding to care for her while bidding farewell to Usagi and the Sailor Guardians, and leave to parts unknown. One year later at the beginning of April, Usagi and her friends are now 16-year-old high school students while Mamoru enrolls into a university. The day comes for Chibiusa to return to the 30th-century Earth after having completed her Sailor Guardian training. While watching a solar eclipse with Mamoru, Usagi and Chibiusa hear the clear and mysterious sound of a bell.
