Takeuchi wanted to create a series about girls in outer space, and her editor, Fumio Osano, suggested that Takeuchi add the "sailor suit" motif to the uniform worn by the Sailor Guardians. In the anime's fifth season, the Sailor Starlights are depicted as men transforming into women when changing from their normal forms into Sailor Guardians, rather than just being women disguising as men as they appear in the manga. According to Takeuchi, only females can be Sailor Guardians. The DIC Entertainment/ Cloverway English adaptation of the anime changed it to "Sailor Scout" for most of its run.

Takeuchi created the term by fusing English and Japanese words. The name "Sailor Senshi" comes from sailor fuku, a type of Japanese school uniform that the main characters' fighting uniforms are based on, and the Japanese word senshi, which can mean "soldier", "warrior", "guardian", or "fighter". When Sailor V was proposed for an anime adaptation by Toei Animation, Takeuchi changed the concept to include Sailor Venus as a part of a " sentai" (team of five) and created the characters of Sailors Moon, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter. Naoko Takeuchi initially wrote Codename: Sailor V, a one-shot manga which focused on Sailor Venus. The manga's anime, live-action, musical, and video game adaptations feature some original characters created by the production staff and not by Takeuchi. After the Codename: Sailor V manga was proposed for an anime adaptation, Takeuchi changed her concept to include ten superheroines who defend the galaxy. Takeuchi's initial concept was a story called Codename: Sailor V, in which Sailor V discovers her magical powers and protects the people of Earth.

The series' antagonists include the Dark Kingdom, the Black Moon Clan, the Death Busters, the Dead Moon Circus, and Shadow Galactica. They are later joined by Chibiusa (Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask's daughter from the future) and four more guardians: Sailors Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn. The series follows the adventures of the titular protagonist, Sailor Moon, her lover Tuxedo Mask, and her guardians: Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus.

While many of the characters are humans with superhuman strength and magical abilities, the cast also includes anthropomorphic animals and extraterrestrial lifeforms. The ten Sailor Guardians are named after the planets of the Solar System, with the exception of Earth but including its moon. Each Guardian undergoes a transformation which grants her a uniform in her own theme colors and a unique elemental power. The series takes place in Tokyo, Japan, where the Sailor Guardians ( セーラー戦士, Sērā Senshi), a group of ten magical girls, are formed to combat an assortment of antagonists attempting to take over the Earth, the Solar System, and the Milky Way galaxy. The Sailor Moon manga series features an extensive cast of characters created by Naoko Takeuchi. The main cast of Sailor Moon as seen in the 1990s anime adaptation
