Sailor Moon
Usagi and her younger brother Shingo lived in a Tokyo home with their parents Kenji and Ikuko Tsukino. She lead an average life in Tokyo's Azabu-Juban district and attended middle school with her friends Naru, Umino, Yumiko, and Kuri.
One morning she sleeps in and was late for school. She accidentally steps on a black cat, Luna, while en route. To apologize, she kissed the cat and removed a bandage on her forehead but receives a scratch and strange look in response. It was not a good day at school. She tried to throw her test paper with a 30% grade away but hit a highschooler, Mamoru Chiba, who tells her to study harder next time. Ikuko was not happy about the test result either. Eventually, Usagi goes to her room to study but takes a nap and dreams she is like the great Sailor V instead. Luna wakes her and started speaking but Usagi did not believe it and didn't listen until the feline gave her a brooch and told her to say "Moon Prism Power, Make Up". This transforms her into a Sailor Guardian like Sailor V: Sailor Moon. Her new outfit and mask allows her to see her friend Naru being attacked by a monster targeting her and others for their energy. Luna informs Usagi it is her job to save her. Sailor Moon defeats the monster through her crying and Luna's directions. With the people saved, the handsome Tuxedo Mask appears and introduces himself before dissapearing into the night leaving Usagi enamored. Luna tells Usagi it is her mission to find the Princess and her fellow Guardians as she returns to her normal life. One day after school, Luna jumps on the cute school genius Ami Mizuno prompting Usagi to speak with her. She tries to befriend Ami, hoping she can help with her academics, by taking her to Crown Game Center and playing the Sailor V game. Usagi does not do well, but Ami sets a high score winning a pen while Usagi brute forces a pen of her own. Ami leaves to head to the Crystal Seminar to study. Over the next few days, Luna and Usagi learn the Seminar is another front of their enemy and is brainwashing students into looking for a Silver Crystal and stealing their energy. Usagi heads there to save Ami and the other students and in the process of killing the monster has another encounter with Tuxedo Mask and witnesses Ami awaken as fellow Guardian: Sailor Mercury.
While on a bus, Usagi spies a pretty girl, Rei Hino, getting off and follows her to Hikawa Shrine. She befriends the girl after a misunderstanding and learns of people going missing after catching a 6 pm bus. Mamoru Chiba catches Luna speaking again while she and Usagi return to the Shrine to investigate. They see Rei get abducted on a bus which disappears into another dimension. Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury follow and see Rei awaken into Sailor Mars as all three work together to defeat Jadeite. All three Senshi investigate a Masquerade being held by Kingdom D suspecting their treasure may be the Silver Crystal. Their enemies had the same idea and plan to crash the party and possess Princess D and steal the treasure. During the party, Usagi encounters Tuxedo Mask again and after their enemies attack he saves her. Sailor Moon gains a new tiara and saves the Princess with Moon Twilight Flash. They find the treasure was not the Silver Crystal. While walking to school and talking to Luna, Usagi stops paying attention and affectionately thinks about Tuxedo Mask. She walks in front of traffic and is saved by Makoto Kino. Makoto is a new transfer student that everyone else tries to stay away from but Usagi spends lunchtime with her and invites her to the arcade with Ami. They talk about a rumour of a Ghost Bride Usagi had heard earlier with Naru, Yumiko, and Kuri which curses people. All three head to Hikawa Shrine to talk to Rei about it. That night, the Ghost Bride targets Motoki and Makoto. While Usagi is asleep, Tuxedo Mask arrives at her window, wakes her up, and leads her to the Youma. Makoto awakens as Sailor Jupiter and she and the other three Senshi take down the Ghost Bride and Nephrite who was controlling the bride and had posessed Princess D at the Masquerade. With four Sailor Guardians, Luna gives Usagi the Moon Stick and tells her she is the leader and it's her duty to protect the Silver Crystal and the Moon Princess.
Overview
Personality and attributes
On Earth, she lived unaware of her past and went by the name of Usagi Tsukino (月野 うさぎ, Tsukino Usagi). As one of the Sailor Soldiers, she came to be known as the superheroine known as Sailor Moon (セーラームーン, Sērā Mūn).
Although well-meaning, she was an underachieving, accident-prone crybaby.
Powers and abilities
The names for Sailor Moon's attacks center around mythology of the Moon, love, healing, and light. She eventually becomes the most powerful Sailor Guardian in the galaxy, but her capacity for caring for others is shown to be more powerful still. As the reincarnation of Princess Serenity, Sailor Moon also wields the immensely powerful Silver Crystal. The origin of the Silver Crystal is inconsistently depicted in the series, described as a family heirloom early on, and later described as a fundamental part of Sailor Moon as a Sailor Guardian. The Silver Crystal is coveted by many of the series' villains for its limitless abilities, and Sailor Moon often uses it throughout the series to defeat the most difficult of villains, typically at the cost of her own vitality.
