Sailor Cosmos (セーラー・コスモス, Sērā・Kosumosu) is a fictional character who appears in the fifth arc of the Sailor Moon manga, Stars.

Sailor Cosmos comes from a future where she fled from the battle with Chaos; she returns to the past as the child Chibichibi (Sailor ChibiChibi) to guide Usagi Tsukino on the path to defeat Sailor Galaxia. In the future, she is said to be the most powerful of all the Sailor Senshi in the universe, which is why she is the only one who has not been killed by Chaos. It is hinted that Sailor Cosmos is Sailor Moon from the future. Sailor Ceres asks, "Are you the ultimate form of Sailor Moon?"[1], but Sailor Cosmos neither agrees nor disagrees with this accusation.

She at first encourages Sailor Moon to destroy the Galaxy Cauldron to ensure Chaos' destruction, but Sailor Moon protests, realizing that if the Cauldron is destroyed no more stars will be born and her friends, defeated by Galaxia, will not return. She chooses to sacrifice herself to the Cauldron, which Cosmos then realizes to be the right decision.

Sailor Cosmos never makes an appearance in the Sailor Moon anime, although she appears to have a counterpart named the Light of Hope, who is also a form of Chibichibi. Although the Light of Hope resembles Sailor Cosmos and many consider her to be the same, Naoko Takeuchi commented that she wished Sailor Cosmos had been in the anime[2], which may indicate either that Sailor Cosmos indeed does not appear or that the small speech given by the silhouette of the Light of Hope is not really a role compared to Sailor Cosmos' part in the manga.
