Usagi Tsukino lives as a schoolgirl in 20th century Tokyo. As the story begins, she is a well-intentioned but underachieving crybaby who prefers the life of a normal teenaged Earth girl. However, she continues to fight the evils of her past life and protects the Earth with the Silver Crystal, as the Champion of Justice, Sailor Moon.
Usagi in the mangaHer journey begins when, while running to school, she sees some neighborhood kids abusing a cat and rescues it. Later, the cat reveals herself as a talking cat named Luna, gives her a magical brooch which helps her transform into Sailor Moon, the "soldier for love and justice", and tells her that she is a Soldier who must fight for peace. She also tells her that she must find the rest of the Soldiers, as well as their princess. Though at first Usagi is a "reluctant heroine" (she often is rescued by Tuxedo Mask) as time goes on she grows more confident and mature. However, she still has her crybaby moments late into the metaseries.
Usagi lives in Azabu Jūban (which is a real district of Tokyo) with her mother Ikuko Tsukino, her father Kenji Tsukino, and her brother Shingo Tsukino. Usagi's family is named after the family members of the metaseries' creator, Naoko Takeuchi's real family. [4] Out of the Sailor Senshi, Usagi and Minako Aino are the only characters with a conventional nuclear family. Usagi is also the only one known to have a sibling.
She is a poor student, and often comes off as dumb (especially in the anime), though this is generally played off as being due to naïveté and laziness rather than actual stupidity. This is because she spends her time eating, playing video games and reading comics (including RunRun, which published the Sailor V manga in real life) rather than studying. She is often portrayed as a character that is better at art than science.
Usagi's boyfriend is Mamoru Chiba. Mamoru and Usagi's relationship is a large part of Usagi's life. The love they share helps Usagi make it through many challenges. Mamoru becomes Usagi's boyfriend after many trials and they date for a long time during the series. Mamoru eventually proposes to Usagi at an airport, and they ultimately get married.
One of the biggest secrets about Sailor Moon is revealed in a number of connecting episodes in the end of the first series, when she realizes that she is Princess Serenity (the "crown princess" of the Silver Millennium) reborn. In the second series, Usagi learns that she will give birth to a daughter (Chibiusa) by her boyfriend and future husband, and Usagi will become a "sovereign of the Earth", known as Neo-Queen Serenity, by the 30th century.
Symbol of the Moon KingdomUsagi loves sweet foods and is easily distracted by them. She loves cake so much that it is listed as her hobby in the manga, and her favorite subject is Home Economics. She is also said to dislike carrots (although she eats them in the anime), and is terrible at both English and mathematics. In addition to being a genuine friend, Usagi is extremely good at brownnosing and, of course, crying. She is afraid of dentists and ghosts, and her greatest dream is to be a bride.[1] Usagi loves rabbits[5] as well as the colors white and pink, and is apparently a member of the Manga Drawing Club at school.[6] She stands 150 centimeters (4'11" tall,[7] and is blood type O.[1]
Usagi's name is a pun on the phrase "the rabbit of the moon" (月の兎 tsuki no usagi). This derives from a Japanese children's story about the rabbit that is said to be visible in the Moon's face, much like the Western Man in the Moon. The English-language manga, which otherwise uses dubbed anime's names for the five Inner Senshi, gives her the nickname Bunny to partially preserve the pun; many other localizations, such as the German, Polish, and Spanish versions give her name as "Bunny" in both the anime and manga.
Similarly for the Anime dub, "Serena" is probably at least in part a play on the word Selene, a moon goddess in Greek mythology who fell in love with a shepherd named Endymion. It also derives from the name of the moon princess, which is alternately either "Selenity" (from Selene) or "Serenity" (from the Sea of Serenity on the moon), both of which would be rendered in Japanese as /seɺeneti/.
(In an early DiC promotional tape that advertised Sailor Moon to television stations, Usagi was called Victoria.[8] Another preliminary name, that appeared on Kodansha's English website in an advertisement for the series, was said to be Celeste.[citation needed])
