"I am Sailor Mars, and believe me, I'm not clowning around! I call upon my firebird!"

—Sailor Mars, Ep. #50

Sailor Mars, also known as Super Sailor Mars, is the third Sailor Scout and civilian identity of Raye Hino. She is the reincarnated Princess of Mars, In the 30th Century, she becomes the protector of Neo-Queen Serenity and her daughter, Princess Rini.

Previous Life[]

Like the other Sailor Scouts, Raye was born 1,000 years ago. She ruled as both the Princess and a skilled warrior of Mars and was a subject of the Moon Kingdom, governed by the mother of Princess Serena, Queen Serenity. She and the other Princesses, Lita, Amy and Mina were a part of Princess Serena's court and acted as her protectors. When Queen Beryl invaded the Moon kingdom with the Negaverse, the Princess of Mars fought valiantly alongside the likes of Prince Darien and the other Princesses against Beryl's warriors.

Despite her efforts, she and the others subjects of the Moon Kingdom, including Princess Serena, were killed in the battle that brought the kingdom to ruin. Queen Serenity used the Crescent Moon Wand and the Imperium Silver Crystal to seal Beryl and the Negaverse away. The last of her lifeforce was used to send Raye and the others to Earth where they would be reborn without memories of their lives on the Moon.

In a twist of irony the sixth shadow warrior, Pox, would also be reincarnated as Raye's grandfather.

Rebirth[]

On Earth Raye grew up to be something of an overbearing, domineering, and tomboyish, but rather feminine young girl. She learned at a very young age how to fight and defend herself against bullies, especially boys who picked on her because she was a girl. As a teenager, Raye began to attend a private school and moved in with her grandfather, who was a Shinto priest who lived in a temple on Cherry Hill in Tokyo, Japan. However, because of the Superstitions surrounding the temple and Raye's fondness for the crows and ravens that inhabited the environment, many of her peers avoided her, believing her to be frightening and stand-offish.

Original Japanese Version[]

In the original Japanese anime adaptation of Naoko Takeuchi's manga, Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon, the character Sailor Mars was named Rei Hino. The English localization of the anime merely changes the spelling of her name to "Raye".

In the Pretty Soldier Sailor Moonmanga, Rei is refined and serious, the complete opposite of her personality in the anime. Luna was so stirred by seeing her, she thought Rei could be the Princess the Senshi are searching for. In Act 3 of the manga, she is the one who kills Jadeite. Rei, as Sailor Mars, continues to stand by her new found friends and fellow soldiers.

In Act 12, Sailor Mars combines the power of her henshin stick with Sailor Venus, Sailor Mercury and Sailor Jupiter to awaken Princess Serenity who had been consumed into the body of Queen Metallia. In the end after Princess Serenity is victorious against Metallia, Prince Endymion detects where they are with his own power, psychometry, and Sailor Moon revive Rei and everyone else. In the manga, the Rainbow Crystals do not exist.
