Summary
Usagi Tsukino and her fellow Sailor Guardians are enjoying an ordinary spring in Tokyo when Fiore, an alien whom Mamoru Chiba befriended as a lonely, newly orphaned child in hospital, comes back to Earth to collect on that friendship. Fiore is bound to the parasitic Kisenian Blossom, which feeds on his jealousy and needs a world to drain; he seizes Mamoru and blames the girls, Usagi above all, for coming between them. The Guardians follow him to an asteroid set on a collision course with Earth, fighting the flower-creatures grown from his energy. This hour-long Toei theatrical anime, directed by Kunihiko Ikuhara from Naoko Takeuchi's manga, turns on the single rose the orphaned Mamoru once gave Fiore.

How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Sailor Moon R: The Movie: The Promise of the Rose lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against Films · 1990s (4,082 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 26.
