Talk:Minako Aino

I understand the "Sailor Senshi" thing, but the recent edits by Purplefeltangel (sp?) has "exterminate" all "People" category. So I'm confused as regard to the current policy about this. ?_? 210 05:58, 15 August 2006 (MST)

And now I'm even more confused when I saw the category of Chibi Chibi. 210 06:03, 15 August 2006 (MST)

That's the first I've heard of the People category being slated for deletion... was this agreed? GracieLizzie 06:14, 15 August 2006 (MST)

It's a couple of days ago I think, & there seems to be some discussions b/n Purplefeltangel & Dooky (can't recall the details). And it's me who pointed out the People category thing in Chibi Chibi & then someone replaced it w/ "Sailor Senshi". 210 06:22, 15 August 2006 (MST)

No, the people category still exists. But everyone who's a person is also part of a smaller subgroup within that category, so we're only listing those subgroups (Wikipedia's categories work the same way). Now, the civilian identities of the senshi are somewhere in between 'Civilian' and 'Sailor Senshi'. How about a new categoy, 'Civilian identities of Sailor Senshi'? dooky 07:51, 15 August 2006 (MST)

^ So the "People" thing is clearer now, & that new category is a good idea. 210 07:58, 15 August 2006 (MST)

I agree, I think that would be the best plan. GracieLizzie 08:13, 15 August 2006 (MST)

Hey I was wondering if there could be something about Usagi's hairstyle in here. As distinctive as it is it would be nice to know if it was/is popular in the real world. (This unsigned comment was left by 130.88.186.145)

I would think that something about Usagi's hairstyle should be in Usagi's article, not Minako's... Kerochan no Miko 21:53, 27 March 2007 (MST)

To answer your 2nd question: I don't think so. I wonder if it even exists in the real world at all if you meant the exact replica of her anime hairstyle. And even her PGSM one isn't popular at her age - considered too childish. --210 05:15, 28 March 2007 (MST)

Minako ... an unclear medical condition that was slowly killing her. Did the medical condition remain unclear throughout the show? I got the idea it has something to do with her brain.. Act 23 shows her emerging from a brain scanning machine and her doctors were looking at xrays of something that could be a brain. Not very sure though. I've only watched acts 21, 22 and half of 23. (Youtube refuses to load. Grrr.) Was her condition never mentioned? --Secretss 08:28, 2 August 2007 (MST)

No, her medical condition was never named, and she was getting out of what looked like an MRI to me, not a "brain scanning machine." And even if her disease did involve her brain (which is entirely possible) there are so many different things that could be wrong with it that it's not even worth trying to speculate. Kerochan no Miko 13:36, 2 August 2007 (MST)

She's probably got the dreaded Soap Opera Disease.  :o -Malkinann 16:20, 4 August 2007 (MST)

Maybe we should mention it in the article like:

Minako ... the soap opera disease that was slowly killing her.

Venus and Kunzite

... In the infamous Senshi/Shitennou pairing picture, Minako was shown together with Kunzite. The only time this pairing has been shown in canon was in some of the musicals...

IIRC, in the manga, Venus seemed to have some feelings for Kunzite in her past life. I think it was shown when she chased Princess Serenity to the Earth and made her return to the Moon against her will. Serenity blurted "You don't even know what is to be in love"; and Venus, staring at Zunzite, replied that she was wrong... Don't know, I can't remember. In the present, however, she didn't hesitated to kill him with Sailor Planet Attack. I suppose Adonis was right: " your love will be hopeless for all eternity" and "you will always choose duty over love". Well, I'm going to do some research to prove myself I didn't invented it but, in the meantime, let me know if you remember anything about it. Oh, and I know the article just refers to "pairing", so that part is right. --Silver 15:41, 11 September 2009 (MST)

Since it isn't explicitly stated anywhere, and fangirls love to speculate all over it, it's not something that I really want to touch on here. Kerochan no Miko 07:34, 12 September 2009 (MST)

Fangirl ? Anyway, I reviewed my manga book and the scene I depicted above is a fact. She seemed to have some feeling for him, but there was no relationship (maybe it was an unrequired love?). Nobody seems to care, so whatever --Silver 07:46, 12 September 2009 (MST)

Venus saying she was wrong is a fact. Venus staring at Kunzite and specifically meaning him by that statement is your translation of it. Kerochan no Miko 07:49, 12 September 2009 (MST)

She was looking at him and he was the only one in the panel, so... I said I'm not going to add anything about it, and of course I'm not going to add my personal opinion in the article, so there's no need for a reply --Silver 08:14, 12 September 2009 (MST)

Voice actress

Who was the voice actress that played Minako in episodes 66-82 of English dub? According to wikipedia it is Stephanie Morgenstern. --Yuri Tanima (talk) 04:25, 15 August 2014 (MST)
