| - Her intention is to cover the Earth in snow and ice to make it part of her "collection" of snow-covered planets. Long ago, she tried to cover the Earth in ice, but failed when the Silver Crystal melted the ice and saved the planet. She has once again made her way to Earth to try again. A piece of her comet has been lost and she cannot proceed without it. She sends her minions, the Snow Dancers, to search for the missing shard. A young astronomer named Kakeru Ozora finds the shard and keeps it in his observatory. It attaches itself to his life force, and begins slowly stealing his energy, causing him to become very ill. Princess Snow Kaguya appears before him at his observatory to retrieve her comet shard, and he becomes entranced by her, believing that she is the mystical Princess Kaguya. She takes the shard, but because it is linked to his life force, he is brought even closer to death when it is taken. She throws the shard into the ocean and creates an enormous ice crystal that will continue to draw away Kakeru's vital life energy until he dies. She and her Snow Dancers then begin to freeze the Earth. The Senshi attempt to stop her, but none of their attacks seem to work. All of the nine Sailor Soldiers' combine their powers to activate the Silver Crystal's full abilities, which obliterates Princess Snow Kaguya, her Snow Dancers, the ice crystal in the sea, and her comet.
