𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 — 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐧 .

Located in the Virgo constellation 60 million light-years away from our galaxy rests what has been nicknamed the Butterfly Galaxies ( NGC 4567 and NGC 4568 respectively ). They are a set of unbarred spiral galaxies in the process of colliding and merging with each other. NGC 4568 is the galaxy in which the planet Cocoon can be found, where Shiori is originally from.

A tropical planet with an abundance of trees, flowers and greenery, Cocoon is blanketed largely by night with very few daylight hours. The atmosphere of the planet seems to always be in a haze of yellow—this is due to the endless pollination that goes on from its inhabitants. Inhabitants of Cocoon are Insect-Humanoids very similar to Earth’s moths and butterflies. Like their Earth counterparts, they are a nocturnal species and thus, Cocoon’s lack of daylight hours works well for them.

As a planet largely dominated by nature, it should come as no surprise that the inhabitants of Cocoon are considered Animists and believe that all living things, objects, and places possess a certain spiritual essence. Animism perceives all things—animals, plants, rocks, rivers, human handiwork, and potentially words—to be animated and alive.

Among their spiritual beliefs is their deep reverence for The Willow—a large tree taking up nearly one-third of the planet and is the source of all life and energy on Cocoon. Inhabitants are born from The Willow, developing in the safety of a cocoon or chrysalis which grants them life through an endless process of pollination by other inhabitants. Unlike humans, they do not experience developmental stages of life, but acquire their development through the chrysalis or cocoon and are born as full adults with the universal knowledge gained from The Willow. Thus, there are no such things as family units on Cocoon. Rather, they exist in tribes that share similar traits and carry out similar objectives that ultimately all work together to keep the planet thriving. It is their belief that all life is sacred and as such will return to the Tree upon death to continue the circle of life.

Cocoon is a planet completely devoid of pollution. Their deep reverence for The Willow, and their nature as Insect-Humanoids means that they work tirelessly to keep their planet clean and healthy. It wasn’t until Galaxia set her sights on the planet that pollution was eventually introduced and it is this introduction that ultimately became the planet’s demise—for as The Willow became poisoned and began to die, so did the planet and its inhabitants.

𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧 — 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐧 .

Sailor Cocoon was mentioned only briefly in the manga as a Senshi that was killed by one of the Sailor Animamates ( Galaxia's minions ), Sailor Heavy Metal Papillon. After the events of Stars, she is reborn on Earth as Katsura Shiori. Shiori is a University student and works full-time as a florist at Konohana in the Hiroo district of Shibuya. She also resides there, though she spends much of her free time in Azabu-Juuban after befriending Chise and Rei. She attends the University of the Sacred Heart and majors in Anthropology.

PLANET. Cocoon, of the Butterfly Galaxies [ NGC 4568 ]

SPEECH. ❛ Protected by the planet Cocoon, I am the soldier of transformation and life — Sailor Cocoon! ❜

NIGHT VISION , passive ability. As a native of Cocoon, where her people were nocturnal, Shiori has near-perfect vision at night. This allows her to see what normal humans usually cannot and makes her an excellent candidate for surveillance.

CAMOUFLAGE , passive ability. When transformed, the neutral, earthy tones of her senshi uniform make it easy to blend into her surroundings, often going undetected by enemies. Even when in civilian form, Shiori has a knack for blending in, surprising those around her when they suddenly become aware of her presence.

METAMORPHIC SLUMBER , offensive. Sailor Cocoon flies high above her target where a barrage of gold dust rains down, putting her target into a deep sleep. This attack, however, is temporary and used mostly as a distraction method until another Senshi can attack.

METAMORPHIC WIND , offensive. Flashing the eyespots on her wings at her target, it startles them just long enough to drum up a severe wind with the beating of her wings, sending her targets flying backwards and often wounding them in the process.

METAMORPHIC KISS , defensive. Sailor Cocoon blows a kiss to a weakened comrade. A butterfly emerges, flying toward the target and landing on them before surrounding them in a light, breezy cocoon of wind. The ability restores the target’s energy and heals minor cuts and scrapes.
