Princess Kakyuu is the princess of the planet Kinmoku who fled to Earth after her planet was destroyed by the Shadow Galactica empire. She is also the civilian identity of Sailor Kakyuu. This is the original depiction of the character created by Naoko Takeuchi.
Appearance
Princess
Kakyuu has long red-orange hair and dons a long deep red dress with blue in the bodice and puffy sleeves. She has a black crown, and blue ribbon around her neck that resembles a flower.
Senshi
Sailor Kakyuu's fuku is unique among Sailor Senshi. Her crown is the same as in her princess form. She has a star tiara like the Starlights. The pins in her hair also remain from her princess form. Her choker is the same as her princess form as well; blue ribbon with a blossom in the center. She has a breastpiece like the Starlights, but orange-red. Her collar is also red. She has puffy armbands that are translucent orange. Her skirt is like her princess skirt, but shorter. It consists of many orange-red translucent petals. Her shoes curl into a point at the tips. Like the Starlights, her brooch is a star with wings.
Biography
Manga
In Act 51 of the manga, after Chibi Chibi landed in the park, she climbed up a playground structure and found the Princess asleep, surrounded by blossoms.
After their encounter with Sailor Heavy Metal Papillon and the return of Sailor Chibi Moon and the Sailor Quartet, Eternal Sailor Moon, Chibi Chibi, the Quartet, and Princess Kakyuu arrived at the Star Garden. Kakyuu announces that she will fight alongside them, and uses Kinmoku Star Power, Make Up, transforming into Sailor Kakyuu, the guardian of the planet Kinmoku. She attacks with Starlight Royal Straight Flush, breaking the capsules holding the crystals. Phi then uses Galactica Plants Blizzard, but she counters with Kinmoku Fusion Tempest. When Eternal Sailor Moon destroys Phi's bracelets and disappears, Sailor Chi stabs Sailor Kakyuu from behind with her staff. In her last words, if a new world begins, she hopes to see a world without fighting when they are all reborn together again. Kakyuu then passes away in Usagi's arms. It is a possibility that when all the Sailor Senshi's Star Seeds were freed from the Galaxy Cauldron and thus resurrecting the Senshi, Kakyuu was also revived.
Later, in Act 54, Princess Kakyuu reveals herself to the Three Lights that she was hiding the incense burner, which Chibi Chibi held on to.
Anime
She is the ruler and future queen of the distant planet Kinmoku, and fled to Earth moments after her home world was destroyed, to find The Light of Hope that can defeat Galaxia. Fearing Galaxia, she hides in an incense burner, found and protected by Chibi Chibi. The Three Lights play their music to reach her, but to no avail, as she is doing her very best to remain hidden from Galaxia. Many times, her mystical scent of pure goodness and light was detected by the Three Lights whenever Chibi Chibi (who was in possession of her holy incense burner) was near them.
When Sailor Tin Nyanko releases a black hole and Usagi gets sucked into it, Chibi Chibi uses her incense burner destroys it and Kakyuu finally appears, holding Usagi. She apologizes to the Starlights for not revealing herself sooner, even though she heard their songs to her. She tells the Super Sailor Senshi about the legendary and strongest Sailor Soldier and that she is now searching for the Light of Hope, and requests Usagi to help her.
However, Galaxia appears during a Three Lights' concert, engulfing the world in darkness and kills Kakyuu. Before she dies, she recognizes Chibi Chibi as the Light of Hope. Following the true Galaxia's healing, she reappears as her Star Seed is returned, and returns home to rebuild planet Kinmoku along with the Starlights.
