•POWERS/ABILITIES » With her Heart Moon Necklace and Lipstick, Usagi can call out the words "Moon Prism Power, Make Up!" and transform into the sailor suited fighter, Sailor Moon. When transformed, her Heart Moon Necklace becomes a brooch. Sailor Moon uses a crescent shaped wand, called the Moonlight Stick, and a tiara to destroy enemies called youma. Attacks with the Moonlight Stick are Moon Twilight Flash, a light beam attack, and Moon Healing Escalation, a gentler beam used to restore victims to health and their rightful minds. Unlike in the animated series, much to Sailor Venus' chagrin, she cannot sense the presence of good or evil forces, though she can sense when loved ones are in danger from them. When not Sailor Moon, Usagi can use Teletia-S, a camera phone, to take on anyone else's appearance as a convenient disguise; it also serves as a communicator.
Later in the series, Usagi's past self, Princess Serenity, reemerges as Princess Sailor Moon at critical moments or when Usagi is sleeping. The Princess wields her Princess Sword--counterpart to Sailor Moon's wand--in an attack that absorbs the power used against her, cuts the shape of a pentagram within it, and then unleashes it back on enemies as a massive fireball. The sword often tosses this power aside, but in a manner that still leaves fiery destruction in its wake. The sword can also transform into a harp which Serenity uses to express her sorrow or heal others. The key element of her power, however, is the Illusionary Silver Crystal (Maboroshi no Ginzuishou) that exists within her body. Its power flares whenever Usagi/Serenity's feelings are strongest, and is linked to a destructive entity on Earth called Queen Metalia.
In The Facility, Usagi has her Heart Moon Necklace and can transform into Sailor Moon, but at 50% power. She lost Teletia-S upon arrival, but then regained it during a scroll hunt; it can only produce half-decent disguises through the camera phone, but while other sailor soldiers are in Facility, she can use it to communicate with them. Fighting power as Sailor Moon is a 7, though as a civilian she has no fighting abilities. Princess Serenity can also emerge, and when she does so, her fighting/healing strength increases to 10, though she cannot destroy the world. Her primary weapon, as in canon, changes to the Princess Sword/Harp. Stars Keep Secrets•PERSONALITY » Usagi acts a lot like her namesake, the bunny rabbit. She loves to eat sweets, have slumber parties, sleep late, and sing karaoke, especially songs by her favorite pop idol, Aino Minako. Easily distracted, she rarely keeps focus on her duties for long. She shines with enthusiasm, and sometimes it irritates those around her who are trying to be serious. Her space cadet ways and difficulty prioritizing keep her grades very low. However, she can be serious, especially when those she loves are hurt or in danger.
She's also bold, not letting rumors or social restrictions keep her from making friends; in fact, she has many friends, and it is rare to see her alone. She's so open and friendly, she will use the honorific "-chan" with any girl she has just met, thinking nothing of making the girl an instant friend. She is, however, aware of social norms and takes care to use proper speech when needed. Her happy-go-lucky nature sometimes makes her fail to notice or appreciate the troubled feelings of her friends, but she is always concerned for them and wants them to be happy.
Usagi's past self, Princess Serenity, emerges later in the series when Chiba Mamoru's life is threatened. Serenity struggles with loving only Endymion, the past incarnation of Chiba Mamoru, who is also Tuxedo Kamen. Because of her desperate feelings for him and him alone, claiming he was the only one who ever treated her like a person and not a princess, she becomes destructive if he is hurt or taken from her. Believing the past is doomed to repeat itself, Serenity is either melancholy or aggressive, playing her harp in solitude or fighting so fiercely she doesn't notice or care who gets injured in the crossfire. Though cold and reckless, she's not completely unkind, and is willing to heal others with her harp. In later episodes, she takes greater control of Usagi's body, no matter how hard Usagi fights to keep her powers suppressed.
•APPEARANCE » Petite and cute, Usagi has black hair that hangs to mid-back in two ponytailed buns. She's often seen wearing her middle school's sailor uniform, which has a blue skirt and white top with a red bow, or wearing casual clothes like jeans, short skirts, printed t-shirts, and sneakers. When transformed into Sailor Moon, her hair turns blond and she wears a leotard version of a sailor school uniform with tall, red boots. As Serenity later in the series, she appears as a princess with a white gown, long, black hair, and golden crescent moon on her forehead; she also transforms and does battle as Princess Sailor Moon, wearing a more frilly leotard, jeweled tiara, and white boots.

Thousands of years ago, she lived as Princess Serenity on the moon during a reign of great prosperity and peace called the Silver Millenium. However, all that changed when the Dark Kingdom, led by Queen Beryl and a mighty, mysterious, and destructive force called Queen Metalia, tried to conquer the Earth and Moon. Caught in the middle was Prince Endymion of the Earth, who shared a forbidden love with Serenity, and for whom Beryl was deeply jealous. When Endymion died in battle, the grief-stricken Serenity couldn't bear to live without him and destroyed the world.
Reincarnated as a modern, teenage girl, Usagi remembered none of this. She grew up in a boisterous household with her father (rarely home because of work), hippie mother and little brother, and went about her days in blissful ignorance, struggling only to keep her grades up and her weight down. At least, that was until a talking cat named Luna walked into her life, gave her a magical brooch, and told her she had to save the world. After that, she started fighting monsters and searching for both the Moon Princess and the Silver Crystal with her new friends, the Sailor Soldiers. Eventually, after many adventures and battles, she learned the shocking truth that she was the Princess and that the Silver Crystal was within her. Moreover, she learned her special feelings for the jewel thief Tuxedo Kamen, which by then extended to his true identity as Chiba Mamoru, were forbidden, and that a dark history was about to repeat itself. All she had to hang onto after Mamoru was captured by Queen Beryl, who still vied for his affections, was the pendant watch he gave her and the promise that their love would not destroy the world again. |
