Sailor Saturn (セーラーサターン Sērā Satān?) is a fictional lead character in Naoko Takeuchi's Sailor Moon media franchise. The alternate identity of Hotaru Tomoe (土萠 ほたる Tomoe Hotaru?), a Japanese schoolgirl. Hotaru is a member of the Sailor Soldiers, female supernatural fighters who protect the Solar System from evil.

Sailor Saturn is featured in the third season of the Sailor Moon anime, Sailor Moon S, and a few episodes of the fifth season, Sailor Stars. She possesses powers associated with destruction, death, and rebirth; she has the ability to annihilate a planet and even an entire star system, as well as resetting the evolution of the same to zero.

Hotaru is first introduced when she becomes friends with Chibiusa. She did not have friends until she met Chibiusa and Usagi. In the anime she was not popular with her classmates because of her powers and her strange seizures, as well as personality changes for being the host of Mistress 9, the evil entity that lived in her after the age of 5. Naoko Takeuchi, the series creator, describes her as delicate, quiet, precocious, and expressionless.

In the manga, there was a lab accident which killed Hotaru's mother, Keiko, and critically injured Hotaru. Souichi Tomoe, Hotaru's father, rescued her by making her body cybernetic and making a deal with Master Pharaoh 90. He used Pharaoh 90's power in the hope of reviving her. In exchange, he also lost his humanity and became malevolent. After Sailor Moon prevents Sailor Saturn from destroying the world at the end of Infinity she is reborn as a baby without the cybernetic parts. She also ceases to have seizures after this point.
