The Last Starlight
Sailor Starfighter first encountered Mamoru Chiba at a night club in New York City in 2015, while eavesdropping on a secret meeting by the Black Moon Clan at a bar in New York after following Esmeraude who is masquerading as a bartender.

The next evening, Mamoru meets Seiya in male form at the American Museum of Natural History, where Mamoru discovers that Seiya looks very much like Starfighter. Acknowledging this, Mamoru asks Seiya about Starfighter, and Seiya says that he is Starfighter. They discuss Seiya’s origins, and also whether he is a man or a woman. Seiya explains that he is a Kinmoku humanoid who can change genders. Shortly afterwards, the two encounter Rubeus and Mamoru chases him outside the museum, where a motorcycle chase takes place.

Seiya later encounters Esmeraude at a sauna, and later overpowers her and knocks her unconscious. Seiya hides her in a sauna room.

Seiya treats Sapphire of his wounds near the Empire State Building. Seiya discovers that there is no Black Moon symbol on Sapphire’s forehead, signalling his redemption.

Seiya transforms again into Sailor Starfighter and joins Mamoru to fight the Black Moon Aliens. In the ensuing fight, Prince Diamond is fatally injured and dies in Tuxedo Mask’s arms after asking him to destroy the Malefic Dark Crystal. Starfighter heads to the top of the Empire State Building and reverses the polarity of the energy-gathering device before removing it, causing the Death Phantom to be drained of energy. The reflection of energy becomes too much until the Malefic Dark Crystal finally shatters. Starfighter returns to the street to join the battle, only to be overpowered by the Death Phantom. Tuxedo Mask uses his signature move, Tuxedo Smoking Bomber, to finally defeat the Death Phantom. Starfighter recovers.

In the final scene of the film, Mamoru parts with Seiya, who discovers that Mamoru has “something special that would change the world”.
