Sailor Mars, also known as Rei Hino, is a fictional character from the anime series *Sailor Moon*. She is one of the core Sailor Guardians tasked with protecting the Solar System. Rei is depicted as a composed and spiritual young woman with precognitive abilities stemming from her work as a Shinto priestess at her family's temple.

Rei's transformation sequence utilizes the phrase "Mars Power, Make Up!" to become Sailor Mars, who is known for her fiery attacks and tactical prowess. Her primary weapon is ofuda charms which she uses to ward off evil spirits. She first appears in episode 10, "Cursed Bus! Fire Senshi Mars Appears".

Beyond her duties as a Sailor Guardian, Rei aspires to be a singer. She often displays a fiery, independent personality and occasional friction with Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon), although they maintain a strong bond as allies and friends. Her complex character adds depth to the team dynamic within the *Sailor Moon* series.
