Umino Gurio
Umino is a nerdy kid with weird glasses in the same class as Usagi. He's
very smart and complains in the first act about not feeling well, so he
only got a 95 on the English test. Umino is a good source of information,
keeping Usagi, Naru, and their other classmates up-to-date on Sailor V,
Sailormoon, and new students to the school like Mizuno Ami and Kino Makoto.
Actually without his glasses Umino is pretty good-looking.

Osaka Naru
Osaka Naru is Usagi's best friend. She has short, curly red hair and a
bowtie in back. Usagi thinks highly of her, saying that she's smart
(she got an 85 on the quiz in Act 1) and is a "princess". Naru worries
about Usagi a lot though she makes fewer and fewer appearances in the
manga. Naru's mother owns a jewelry shop. In Chibi-usa's Picture
Diary in SailorStars, you also find out Naru has a younger sister in
elementary school, Osaka Naruru.

Osaka-san
Naru's mother owns a jewelry shop. Naru comments that she doesn't have
much business sense though, since when she tells Usagi and their
classmates that her mother is having a sale, it must mean that she is
finally gaining some. However, it turns out that her mother wasn't
really her mother; Jadeite's youma tied Naru's real mother up and put
her in the basement to starve to death while posing as the woman.

Furuhata Motoki
Furuhata Motoki works at the Crown Game Center, a video arcade in building
his father owns. He goes to KO University. His best friend is Endou,
though he's more often seen with Reika, his girl friend. Usagi, Makoto,
and Ami have crushes on him first; Usagi calls him her "onii-chan" and
doesn't find out his name until Act 5. The nickname his friends at college
give him is "Furu-chan", and he tells the Inner Senshi to call him that.
In the first arc, Motoki is brainwashed by Prince Endymion into believing
that Endymion is Endou; after Endymion temporarily controls Makoto and
follows her to the Sailor Senshi's control center under the arcade, Motoki
follows. The building explodes during the battle, but Jupiter and Mercury
take him to safety. Motoki recognizes them as Makoto and Ami before they
disappear. At the beginning of the Black Moon arc, he confronts the girls
with the knowledge that they're the Sailor Senshi but offers to help out
if they need it. Motoki has a younger sister, Unazuki.

minerals a lot and is very friendly. She's introduced in the first arc

best friend, Endou (Prince Endymion in disguise). Later, she tells
Makoto and Ami that Motoki has become friends with the black-haired Endou
(Prince Endymion), but he had another friend named Endou before who was
totally different, and that no one at college knows who the new Endou
is. Later in the Infinity arc, Reika meets a new freshman, Meioh Setsuna,
in Act 27 and introduces her to Motoki.

gifts for her birthday in her father's name. Kaidou was supposed to be the
successor to Hino-san, but he told Rei that he didn't consider him a adult,
didn't want to have an unhappy daughter (like Rei), didn't think he would
be good for politics, and he never wanted to marry. Rei thought that he
was like herself; however, one day, Rei saw Kaidou with another woman and
found out that Kaidou was going to marry her because Hino-san said for him

appears in Chibi-usa's first Picture Diary. She defends Chibi-usa from
Kyusuke's teasing and is one of Chibi-usa's closest friends until

is attacked by vampires when she accompanies Chibi-usa to Lyrica's
house.

has black, spiky hair. He teases her a lot and annoys her at first,

brother.

Oozora Kakeru
Kakeru is the kind, idealistic man who saves Luna in "Lover of Princess
Kaguya". Luna falls in love with Kakeru and goes to visit him, accepting
his gifts of star candy and wearing the yellow ribbon he puts on her.
Ever since Kakeru was little, he wanted to be an astronaut, and at age
twelve he designed a space shuttle. When he was older, he earned
doctorates in many fields dealing with astronomy, but he was not selected
to be an astronaut, much to the surprise of everyone. He never tried
to become an astronaut again and turned his attention to other things,
joining a space development team. Because of this, his childhood friend,
Himeko, believes that he has given up on their dream of going to the moon
to see if Princess Kaguya really lives there, when in actuality he
suffers from a heart condition that prevents him from overstressing
himself. In "Lover of Princess Kaguya", he discovers a comet which is
supposed to collide with Earth, which he names "Princess Kaguya". He
finds a piece of it that falls to Earth and puts it in a petri dish. The
piece of the comet grows, and after Kakeru becomes ill after suffering
much stress, eventually Snow Kaguya, the entity that controls the comet,
appears to Kakeru to take him with her. He and Himeko reveal their
love for each other before Himeko goes on the Space Shuttle Luna; Kakeru,
however, is near death, and his heart finally stops in the hospital.
However, Luna becomes human thanks to SuperSailormoon's power, and,
pretending to be Snow Kaguya, takes Kakeru to space. Luna tells him that
he must live and wait for his real Princess Kaguya (Himeko) to return,
and that he must promise that he will return to space to go to the moon
with Himeko. Kakeru promises, then realizes that the girl in front of
him is Luna, but before he can say her name, she kisses him. His heart
then starts back up as he awakens in the hospital, repeating that he
must go to the moon to find Princess Kaguya.

Nayotake Himeko
Himeko is the childhood friend of Kakeru's who wants to be an astronaut.
She feels angry at Kakeru because he gave up on becoming an astronaut.
She applies to become part of the Space Shuttle Luna team run by NASA,
but is rejected. Kakeru is relieved, but later Himeko is accepted to
go on the shuttle and becomes the youngest female Japanese astronaut.
Himeko cares a lot for Kakeru, and she promises to come back to Kakeru
after the mission to help him, so that together they can go to the moon
in the future. Sailormoon and Luna reveal to her that the Earth may be
in danger due to Snow Kaguya; Himeko destroys the crystal that Kakeru
has, prompting Snow Kaguya's immediate attack on Tokyo. The shuttle's
new mission being to blow up the Princess Snow Kaguya commet before it
can hit Earth, but the shuttle can't lift off because of Kaguya's attack.
The Sailor Senshi destroy Snow Kaguya and the commet, and Himeko's shuttle
then goes to the moon safely. In space, Himeko thinks that she, Kakeru,
and their unborn baby will go to the moon together.

Ruruna and Naruru
Kobe Ruruna: Chibi-usa's friend introduced in the Chibi-usa's Picture
Diary story in SailorStars. She's your typical, shop-aholic ditz. She is
extremely well built and looks more like a teenager than an elementary
schooler (Mamoru and other guys get nose bleeds when they see her and Naruru
in their skimpy outfits). She and Naruru are in the same class as Chibi-usa
in SailorStars.
Osaka Naruru: Chibi-usa's other friend found in the same story as
Ruruna. She's more or less an exact clone of Ruruna. Naruru is also
Osaka Naru's younger sister. She and her friend, Ruruna, dress up as
Sailor Senshi in the story, using their dual attack, "Super White Kick",
where they double kick the two men who want to develop over the land
of the pawnshop of Hanmatsuura Makoto.
|

Hanmatsuura Makoto
Makoto is the owner of the Hammer Price Shrine, a pawnshop that's been in
his family for over 18 generations. His dream is to make the pawnshop
into a real store. However, some land developers push him to sell his
land, then destroy his pawnshop releasing an evil spirit. He saves Naruru
and Ruruna from the spirit, dressing up in a tuxedo and calling himself
'Fat Mask' or something similar to that meaning. After the spirit is
destroyed, a large building with the Hammer Price Shrine symbol is erected
over the old pawnshop's place.
