Also, being called the beginning of the end, the plot will take place after the events of the Sailor Moon Eternal Movie. This is the first time that the Sailor Stars will make an appearance on the frontlines. In the Shadow Galactica Arc of the story, the titular group has been assigned the work of stealing the starseeds.

The defeat of Sailor Galaxia marks the conclusion of the Sailor Moon franchise once and for. But as of the time of writing, there is no news on whether this movie will be the final outing in the project.
