My all time favourite villain is Prince Demande.I really like his personality and to be honest i think he's end goal was pretty reasonable.It's just that Wiseman started corrupting everyone.I could go on all day about him. Very close second is Saphir

So many...so many....I can't think of anymore though. xD

1) Sailor Iron Mouse- She's so cute and like me, I guess. xD  
2)Galaxia- She is so fierce and determined, and (ironically) gorgeous!
3) Prince Demand-Like previous Jupiter stated. xD
4) Amazonness Quartet- I have only ever heard them in the dub but they're amazinly cute, I wish I could be in their clique. xD

My favorite villain is Mistress 9 and the runner up is Nehelenia! And obviously my love Kunzite!

Black Lady =DD Because...I dunno why reallllly xD I just have always loved her =D She's pink and awesome and feels no one loves her and I just wanna huggle her and tell her its all okay! xD And I love how even though she's all 'evil' and stuff she still loves and cares about Helios and Luna P!!!

The Witches 5, especially because I feel like they were the least developed of all the villains even in the original anime.

Jadiete, Wiseman, Black Lady, Eudial, Mistress 9, and Queen Nehelenia because Lust will eat my dreams if I don't add her to the list.

I love Saphir.

My unbeaten favorite is the Golden Queen - Galaxia Closely followed by Black Lady, Mistress 9 and Nehelenia. The Queens of Darkness

I really enjoyed the amazon trio in the 90's anime. Also love galaxia and mistress 9

In the anime, I'd have to say the Witches 5. I wish there might have been a little more development for the last three because they seemed interesting.

In the manga, it's the Dead Moon Circus. They knew who the Senshi were and attacked them using the nightmares against them. Plus the Amazon Trio were very creepy. Fisheye smuggled himself into Ami's home, Tiger's eye almost ate Rei, and Hawk's Eye drugged Makoto's tea.

And I liked Xenotime and Zeolite sticking to the circus theme by being skilled knife throwers (I thought they should've attacked the Amazon Trio in the anime, not a random lemure). Obviously the Amazoness Quartet being Senshi was very interesting and Zirconia was formitable, along with the the leader Nehellenia. I figured she'd be as powerful as her mirror opposite, Queen Serenity. I also liked Nehellenia, because she was an evil witch who's role in the Silver Millennium was a reminder of my favorite Disney villain.

Black Lady is my number one. She has such a touching backstory and a really amazing design!
I also like Galaxia a lot for her menacing presence.

I love the Amazon Trio in the anime. They hang out in that sleazy bar, they wear the gaudiest and tackiest clothing basically in the entire series, and their only tactic is "hitting on people." (And they pick their targets based on their own personal sexual preferences, which is incredibly creepy.) The episode where Hawk's Eye tries to woo Usagi's mom will forever be one of my favourites for sheer hilarity.

I also adore Professor Tomoe. ♥ I love his deep voice and maniacal laughter. He's overall rather typical (outcast scientific genius makes a devil's bargain), but that doesn't bother me at all. I can completely understand and sympathize with Kaolinite's attraction to him.

Queen Nehelenia

I think the Black Moon Clan is fascinating. their religious fanaticism is only really hinted at but it still begs for MOOOOOOAR.

most of them are really good..er evil but I am biased towards Dark mercury from PGSM...BUT i liked Alan/Ann and Berither and vesves's group

For some reason, I always liked Mimette. And part of that is probably because she and Minako both liked the same idol in the one episode!

surprise surprise It's VesVes. And the rest of the Amazoness Quartet.

I also really like Galaxia (manga!Galaxia moreso). She's just so ruthless and intimidating and her backstory is really intriguing.

JunJun!!! I also love the rest of the quartet. And Galaxia... me and Empress Vesta have the same tastes lol.

Zoisite is my all time favorite (though I have a preference for PGSM one over anime/crystal, but in any adaptation it's still my favorite. Except manga because big lack of any development whatsoever).

I also love the Shitennou as a whole (with a little preference for Kunzite after Zoisite), Diamond (I like Saphir too), the Amazon Trio (don't make me choose, I won't xD) and I think that's about it?

I do like most of the villains either way, but those are the first in the list.

Out of all of the villains I love the Witches 5 (and Professor Tomoe) most because science due to their association with academia and the fact that they are named after minerals that I really love! (I'm looking at you, Ptilol, Cyprine, and Viluy. xD) Being a scientist myself, I can relate to them the most—especially Eudial when it comes to working diligently on lab reports and dealing with crap from the lazier jealous people.

Plus, there is this crazy mineralogy professor at my university who reminded me so much of Professor Tomoe due to his shenanigans, witty dark remarks, and strange encouragement (that usually ended up causing half of the class to slack off). Seriously, people failed tests so many times and he would give them too many second chances. It was super annoying for the 5 of us who actually studied. Oh, and he had kaolinite too, except it was his true office paperweight. Get it? Harr harr 'cuz it was a chunk of clay. His actual favorites were eudialyte and rhodochrosite though.

Anyway... I was pretty disappointed that the Witches 5 had the weakest character development of all the villains. It definitely would have been interesting to see more of Tellu, Viluy, and Cyprine/Ptilol.

Mine's Jadeite...and I have no explanation for it except that he's pretty. 

Other than that, he's pretty awful as a person. Although in the manga/Crystal he wasn't evil by choice.

Plus, Todd Haberkorn's voice coming out of him? Yes.

I personally liked Jadeite!  He really was cute.  Also, he didn't deserve to "die" the way he did.  I also like the Ayakashi sisters from the 90s anime, because they ended up wanting to become good.

My # 1 favorites are the Amazoness Quartet!  Their childish, 'never gonna grow up' attitudes made them soooooo endearing to me!

Next after them would have to be Sapphire closely followed by Prince Diamond.  I really liked how they seemed to be villains with a good side.

The question is, what villain is NOT my favorite?! (it's the Snow Gal. The Snow Gal from that one movie. Who are you, Snow Gal? Where did you come from? Where did you go? I'm partly sure I just dreamed you up, Snow Gal) 
But honestly, it's so hard to choose. They all are so different and I love them all equally. But I guess if I really have to choose, it'll be 90!Amazon Trio and Fiore from the movies. Why do I love them? Oh I wish I knew. You are all so terrible, Amazon Trio! So shallow! So lazy and hedonistic! And you all grew up so much, especially Fish Eye, you guys deserved your Dream Mirrors. Now play nice.
And Fiore, WELL. I always so enjoyed the sheer Ikuhara of this movie, and this includes Fiore. what's better than this, flower dudes being dubcon bros. But honestly, Fiore is great, he's intense, scary, sympathetic, gay, pretty, abducts Mamoru, crazy jelous, he's like the ultimate Sailor Moon villain! What's not to love.

My favorite are actually the generic youma, because I like to imagine the world from their eyes and I giggle at also imagining them as having a 9-5 job being a villain. 

Oh shoot, I'm scheduled to fight Sailor Moon today at the park, but my little Joey is having a dance recital. Do you think Beryl would fire me if I call in sick?

Do I smell a funny comic or fanfic from this?

Lead Crow is my top fave. Gotta love those Rei Hino doppelgangers.

Just wondering about all the details regarding favorite villains, since Sailor Moon has really fun villains! I tried to put them in groups together as much as possible in the poll but I also did list a few separate, since some villains, despite being part of a larger conglomerate, were more independent actors like Esmeraude, who had no partner in crime on missions. Of course, there is also an "other" section for if you prefer a movie, musical or game specific villain, only like one member of a larger group, or if you, I dunno, like a specific youma best? lol [There's also the possibility maybe you really like a larger, more unseen force like Wiseman/Death Phantom or Queen Metalia? Maybe you're like "I prefer Chaos itself, the ultimate Sailor Moon evil" idk]

You can vote for more than one because I know it's hard to choose. Also, please provide explanation about why you picked what you picked, I wanna know haha


As for me, I really do like just about every Sailor Moon villain but I limited myself to the Shittenou and Amazon Trio for now :p I like them primarily because they're really goofy, often surprisingly cutesy/endearing, and bad at their jobs. I also like the Quartet but I don't remember them as much as other villains so that's why I don't list them at the very top like the other two. Esmeraude was pretty good too, she had some really funny moments. I would love to see more of the Shitennou as they appear in Sera Myu! (My current SM watching goal is to finish a musical) The Trio is very fun and cute in what I've watched from Myu. They didn't seem like they were characterized that way in what I saw of Amour Eternal though :[ If I absolutely had to pick from the two groups, I really like Zoisite, Fisheye, and Tiger's Eye because they're all pretty silly. But yeah, that's my opinion. I'm really curious what you guys have to share about your favorite villains.

Ahhh this is so hard! 

If I had to pick, I'd probably go with the Shitennou or the Quartet. The shitennou because I adore the sen/shi paring and the quartet because of their roles in Crystal Tokyo.

I think overall the villains in the SuperS arc were all redeemable characters, and that's what I like about their anime adaptation (the manga though, was extremely flat in terms of character development for villains). The Ayakashi sisters and Ail and Ann for me were also special because they were my first glimpse of sympathetic villains in anime, and probably in fiction in general. To this day the scene of Ail holding Ann's body, waiting to be killed by a final blow from the doom tree so he can be with Ann still gets to me.
