DD Girls

The DD Girls number five in all, a squad of high-ranking monsters told apart by color, among them pink, red, purple, and green members. As youma of the Dark Kingdom they can reshape their bodies at will, most strikingly by extending their arms into gripping vines.

What sets the DD Girls apart from the Dark Kingdom's other monsters is their discipline as a unit. They feel no dismay at losing members, never bicker over personal glory, and keep their focus fixed solely on their orders. They are also deeply cunning, running rings around every one of the guardians through deception, and are heavily implied to be the most powerful youma Queen Beryl commands. Their arsenal ranges from electric blasts and body-warping vines to conjured magma, high-speed flight, manipulation of the earth's crust, and potent illusions cast from a jewel set in one member's forehead.

Serving Queen Beryl, the five volunteer to stop the Sailor Guardians as they march on the Dark Kingdom. They open with trickery, twice impersonating Tuxedo Mask to lure Sailor Moon in. When Sailor Jupiter moves against them, an illusion of Motoki makes her falter long enough for the monsters to bind her in their vines and electrocute her; crowding in so the others cannot reach her, they force Jupiter to route her own lightning through her body, an explosion that destroys two of them but costs her life. Sailor Mercury holds the line against the surviving three, sees past their disguise of Ryo with her computer, and locates the source of their illusions, only to perish after smashing that computer into the gem on one monster's brow, shattering its power to deceive.

The remaining girls try to seize Sailor Moon from under the ice, but Sailor Venus shoves her clear and is dragged down in her place; refusing even the offered Silver Crystal, they torture Venus until she destroys one of them with a point-blank Crescent Beam that also ends her own life. The last two bury Sailor Mars in rubble, yet she erupts from the glacier with Fire Soul to burn one away, then, gravely wounded, seizes the final monster and immolates them both before she dies. The DD Girls stand as the closing monsters of the first season and the first to slay a Sailor Guardian, their strength said to peak near D Point. They resurface in the musical The Dark Kingdom Resurrection Chapter and as foes in the game Sailor Moon: Another Story, where all five must be beaten in a cave before they warn of a reborn Queen Beryl.
