Sailor Moon/Characters/Supporting Cast: Difference between revisions

----

* [[Adaptational Badass]]: Inverted. After the first season of the anime, his importance quickly faded, as did his badassery ratio. Reputedly, the director of the anime hated his character. By contrast, he retains a larger role in the manga.

* [[Arranged Marriage]]: In the live-action, with a girl named Hina Kousaka (the daughter of his old caretaker). He still falls for Usagi, and Hina later [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy|lets him go willingly.]]

* [[The Artifact]]: In the anime, especially during S and Super S. He started as a [[Satellite Character]] to give Usagi someone to emote at, but he and Usagi hit the [[Relationship Ceiling]] at the end of R, and meanwhile Usagi had lots of friends and characters to emote at, so he basically didn't do much before he was [[Put On a Bus]] {{spoiler|[[Bus Crash|destined to crash]]}}.

* [[Butt Monkey]]: Guy has no luck when it comes to being a victim.

* [[Chick Magnet]]: And [[Blessed With Suck|suffering for it]], as many female villains ([[Ho Yay|and two]] [[Even the Guys Want Him|males]]) have a crush on him, which usually means they want to turn him into [[Brainwashed and Crazy|their obedient manslave]].

* [[The Comically Serious]]: Sometimes.

* [[Distressed Dude]]: More in the anime, though his manga self also wasn't free.

* [[Mind Rape]]: {{spoiler|The reason behind his nightmares. Actually, these were sent to him by... his future self. Meaning, Mamoru had been ''mindraping himself'' all the time.}}

* [[Mysterious Protector]]

* [[The One Guy]]

* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]]: Manly Man to Motoki's Sensitive Guy.

* [[Simple Staff]]: His cane, which he could extend at will in the anime.

* [[Something About a Rose]]: His other ability in the anime.

* [[Team Dad]]: Acts like a brother to the Senshi (specially to Ami), keeps Usagi ''and'' Chibi-Usa with their feet on Earth, in the S season he talks to the Inner Senshi directly to try finding out about their reasons.

* [[Useless Boyfriend]]

* [[Cats Are Snarkers]]: Are they EVER!

* [[Cute Kitten]]

* [[Mentor Mascot]]

 

* [[Gender Blender Name]]: This is mentioned in the Sailor V manga, when Minako points out that he's a male cat with a goddess' name.

* [[Trickster Mentor]]

 

=== '''Diana''' ===

* [[Spirit Advisor]]: In the R anime.

* {{spoiler|[[Thanatos Gambit]]: In the anime, knowing that the Dark Kingdom would be reborn sooner or later, Queen Serenity used the last bits of energy she had to release the souls of the fallen Senshi, Endymion and Princess Serenity so they'd be reincarnated as well, while also freezing Luna and Artemis in a [[Convenient Coma]] so they could become their guides.}}

* [[The Woman Wearing the Queenly Mask]]

 

* [[Chivalrous Pervert]] and [[Hopeless Suitor]]: Seiya, who comes damn close to stealing Usagi away, but in the end doesn't take advantage of her when she's at her most vulnerable.

* [[Cross Dressing Voices]]: In the Japanese versions. Averted in other dubs, though: their civilian identities would be voiced by males and their Starlight selves by women.

* [[Hot Blooded]]: Seiya.

* [[Human Aliens]]: From the planet Kinmoku.

* [[Sugar and Ice Personality]]: Yaten, in the anime.

* [[Romantic Runner Up]]: Seiya, though not for lack of trying.

* [[Sixth Ranger]]

* [[The Stoic]]: Taiki.

* [[Stripperiffic]]: Their senshi forms are some of the most revealing outfits in the series.

* [[Super Gender Bender]]: In the anime.

* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]]: In the manga.

* [[Zettai Ryouki]]: When transformed. Of the hotpants + [[Thigh High Boots]] variety.

* [[Pegasus]]

* [[Puppy Love]]: In universe, with Chibiusa

 

 

* [[Demoted to Extra]]: In the anime.

* {{spoiler|[[Dropped a Bridge On Him]]: She's killed off around two episodes after her introduction, through an [[Heroic Sacrifice]]. She gets better, though.}}

* [[Expy]]: Arguably, of Helios, in relation to Chibi Chibi. But without the Toy Ship.

* [[Facial Markings]]: The one on her forehead. It's a Sweet Osmanthus, called kinmokusei in Japanese
