Mako-chan gets the spotlight in this middling episode of Sailor Moon classic.
They use it just enough that theres an impact when they poke fun at it.
Its not just used idly here, though.
Through her pursuit of Motoki, we learn more about Mako-chans character.
Its interesting that no one shuts Jupiter down in this episode.
Yeah, she wants Motoki.
What I love about Jupiter is what an exceptionally romantic character she is.
This refers to love, but I mean romantic in a broader sense.
Youre stumbling into some shaky territory.
Mako-chan may be sweet and friendly, but do not.
As Mamoru realizes in this episode, sister will choke a bitch.
Just a friendly heads up, bro.
I just love the way these two completely enable each others ridiculous behavior.
Why you gotta upstage, Venus?
It was nice to see Motokis character get a little more development here.
His relationship with Reika is remarkably stable, given their age.
Hes been largely a symbol.
Hes got insecurities, internal struggles, and an apartment that looks like a bomb hit it.
There was such a missed opportunity with the college kids in this show.
It really is unfortunate what a useless character he becomes later.
I mean, think about it.
And all her friends?
You dont need any friends your own age, at least one of whom is male?
All in all, a decent episode of mid-range quality.
On the plus side, character development.
In the minus column, awful youma design.
Well, weve had satellite characters for Usagi, Ami, and Makoto attacked.
