The Japanese Blu-ray collection of the three films was released on February 7, 2018, with this film titled Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon S: The Movie. The film was released in Japanese theaters on December 4, 1994. Sukehiro Tomita returned from the previous film and wrote the script for this film. The film was directed by Sailor Moon episode director Hiroki Shibata, while Sailor Moon episode animation director and key animator Hisashi Kagawa took the role of the character design and animation director. The film was soft matted for its theatrical release, as it was animated in 4:3 aspect ratio. She enjoyed working on the film, and liked the overall result, particularly Luna's transformation sequence. Dissatisfied that she had left the production of the previous film to others, Takeuchi envisioned "Princess Kaguya's Lover" as the plot of Sailor Moon S: The Movie, and proceeded to write the story "all in one go." She modeled the antagonist after an Art Deco antique named "Salome", while the Snow Dancers are modeled after a German china piece, which Takeuchi thought resembled "a character dancing in a snowstorm." On July 8, 1994, she traveled to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida as part of her research there, she watched the launch of space shuttle Columbia.

Sailor Moon S: The Movie is based on the 135-page side story "Princess Kaguya's Lover" ( かぐや姫の恋人, "Kaguya hime no Koibito" ), written and illustrated by series creator Naoko Takeuchi and later published by Kodansha. Main article: List of Sailor Moon characters Character Artemis meets up with Luna, and the cats reconcile. After returning to the Earth, Kakeru takes up Luna's advice and meets Himeko at the airport, where the two lovingly hug. Luna tells him that he needs to start focusing on his relationship with Himeko, and the two kiss. She takes him near the moon, where Himeko, on her space mission, witnesses the phenomenon and realizes that Princess Kaguya does exist. Concerned about Himeko's safety, Kakeru wanders in the snowstorm and is saved by Luna at the exact point Kakeru saved her, transformed into a human. Usagi wishes for Luna to become the mythical Princess Kaguya for one night.
The eight Sailor Guardians, along with Sailor Chibi Moon, combine their own strength and Sailor abilities at once to further strengthen the healing power of the Legendary Silver Crystal, destroying Snow Queen Kaguya and the Snow Dancers head-on, and eliminating the ice crystal in the ocean, as well as her comet. Determined to protect the Earth and its people, Usagi prepares to activate the Legendary Silver Crystal's immense energy and power. Wanting more strength, she activates the mighty powers of the legendary Holy Grail to evolve into Super Sailor Moon, but is easily overpowered by Snow Queen Kaguya. Just before Kaguya could kill the Sailor Scouts, Sailor Moon arrives and tries to talk her out of her plot. The Sailor Guardians attempt to stop her, only for Kaguya to revive the Snow Dancers using the Crystal. She and her Snow Dancers then begin freezing the entire Earth, little by little.
Kaguya later steals the shard, but because it is linked to his life-force, he is brought even closer to death when Kaguya throws the shard into the ocean and creates an enormous ice crystal that will continue to drain away Kakeru's life-force energy completely. The fragment of the comet attaches itself to his life force, and begins slowly stealing his life-force energy, causing him to become very ill. Later, after finding herself unable to reconcile her differences with Kakeru, Himeko leaves on a space mission. The two are devastated because Himeko is oblivious to Kakeru's belief of Princess Kaguya's existence. Luna herself ends up with unrequited love because it is revealed that Kakeru himself has a girlfriend, an astronaut named Himeko Nayotake ( 名夜竹 姫子, Nayotake Himeko), and more importantly, because Luna is a cat. Luna then develops romantic feelings for him, even kissing him on the cheek in his sleep, leaving Artemis crushed. Along the way, she collapses while crossing the road, and is almost hit by a car, but is rescued and nursed to health by Kakeru. Luna falls ill and decides to go back to Usagi's house. Meanwhile, the Sailor Guardians are enjoying a day in the Juban Shopping District. In Tokyo, a young astronomer named Kakeru Ōzora ( 宇宙 翔, Ōzora Kakeru) finds the fragment and keeps it in his observatory to study it further. She has her henchwomen, the Snow Dancers, search for the missing fragment. An extraterrestrial ice entity named Princess Snow Kaguya ( プリンセス・スノー・カグヤ, Purinsesu Sunō Kaguya) arrives on Earth in an attempt to freeze it, but a fragment of her comet has been lost and she is unable to proceed without it.
