We remember her best as the crime-fighting girl in a fuku. It seems as though Usagi has shed her title to become a kind, compassionate, and just ruler in the future. After battles are fought and won she is still the supreme queen.
In the manga, one of the memorial stories, which included Neo Queen Serenity was the battle of the two Ginzuishou stolen by the Black Moon Clan's Prince Demando. The prince was also seemingly infatuated with the Neo Queen.
Neo Queen Serenity's quiet, dignified personality seems to detour from the present day Usagi/Sailormoon. When Usagi/Sailormoon visits Crystal Tokyo she voices out that she wanted to meet her future self, yet was not possible since the Neo Queen was asleep in crystal. Neo Queen Serenity was encased in this protective crystal when the Black Moon Clan laid siege on Crystal Tokyo. This crystal was automatically formed around Neo Queen Serenity when she was unable to defend herself against the attack. When queen and senshi finally meet, Neo Queen Serenity admits to wanting to meet her past self as well. This concludes that they are not as different as they seem, rather Usagi has grown into her role as a queen in the future.
King Endymion notes how after taking the title of Neo Queen Serenity the queen can no longer transform into a senshi because of the altered power of the Ginzuishou. This statement somewhat collides with Sailormoon's ultimate form of Sailorcosmos. However, with the powers from the Ginzuishou, Neo Queen Serenity is able to give Sailormoon, Sailormercury, Sailormars, Sailorjupiter, and Sailorvenus new powers. The Neo Queen is also able to awaken Small Lady's senshi form (Chibimoon) as well as rebirth senshi such as Sailorpluto.
Neo Queen Serenity Neo Queen Serenity's name is most likely derived from Mare Serenitatis ("Sea of Serenity"), which is one of the lunar mare (large meteoroid impacts have been made) locations on Earth's Moon as well as the location Takeuchi Naoko places the past Moon Kingdom. Serenity also personifies the adjective Serene: shining bright and steady or clear, free of unpleasantness, utter calmness. Queen is Serenity's status. Neo (Greek for "new") indicates that she is the new queen of the universe to differentiate from her mother who was known as Queen Serenity.
Crown/Forehead
One of the most important features of Neo Queen Serenity is her crown. It looks like a combination of pearls with a silver metal shaped heart and in the center of the heart is a crystal rock. The color varies in each image, but usually it is a milky silver scheme. All Moon princesses/queens have the Moon insignia on their foreheads to signify that they are from the Moon.
Earrings
On both ears, Neo Queen Serenity, has three descending pearls. Connected on the last pearl is a hanging accent. The accent seems to be some sort of intricate, golden swirl.
Gown
The bodice of the dress is exactly the same as her Princess Serenity dress. There are only a couple of differences in the overall gown. One difference is on the back of the gown where large, transparent, elaborate bows are present. Another difference from Serenity's princess dress is that this gown has a very long train. The wing-like transparent material on her bodice extends into a transparent cloth that creates the train.
Shoes
Neo Queen Serenity's shoes are a pair of plain, pointed white stiletto heels. There are very few images of Neo Queen Serenity wearing shoes. In most images, her gown is so long that they can neatly hide her feet or she is barefoot.
