Half a year later, a string of jewelry shop robberies occurs, and when Sailor V appears during the incidents, the media begins to pay her notice. One day, Tsukino Usagi and her friends plan to "transform" into Sailor V in order to protect the jewelry shop owned by the mother of her friend, Osaka Naru. When night falls and darkness settles, a band of thieves make their appearance. Usagi and her friends are dressed up as Sailor V! But Usagi is captured by Ajito, one of the thieves! At the last minute, Usagi swallows the key to the jewelry case...
The leader of the thieves, Cutie Kenko, puts Usagi inside a magic box, intending to saw her in half in order to get hold of the key that she has swallowed. And the savior who appears before Usagi...is the beautiful sailor-suited Senshi Sailor V!
