Sailor Moon Crystal is a faithful adaptation of the original manga. All major characters, including the Sailor Guardians and their allies and adversaries, retain their established genders from the source material. The Sailor Starlights, while appearing as male idols, are canonically female characters in disguise, which does not constitute a gender swap.

Sailor Moon Crystal is an anime adaptation of the original manga, maintaining the established racial depictions of its characters, who are consistently portrayed as Japanese. No characters established as one race in the source material are depicted as a different race in this adaptation.
