One line which I have heard more than thrice, now: "You're always rooting it out for the underdog, huh?" Now why didn't that sound so...well, wrong? Maybe because it's true? Some say it's a matter of opinion, others say it depends on how observant you really are. Whatever. Just what makes her the underdog? Why not read a few of my observations, and see if you agree with me...

Her attacks sequences are usually cut short. How many times have you seen "Sparkling Wide Pressure" in full animation? Even if one would say that the other attacks get cuts as well, the cuts they receive aren't half as much! Whenever the group becomes emotional and each one of them starts with long speeches, begging the villain to end this and that, spare this and that (oh, you know SM has lots of those *sniff* special moments--usually when Sailormoon is held captive or has no power left), Sailorjupiter gets to quip a two-letter word--something like, "No!". Uh-hum, very dramatic, ne?

Poor Makoto always comes in second best after Haruka came. Her famed assets such as being tall, physically strong and long-legged are rivaled by those of Haruka's. She's always "The Old News"... You may say that the outer senshi get the least number of episodes, then again--you just had enough of their "perfection" (don't ask me to enumerate the million reasons why they're perfect. Let's just say they're all beautiful, talented, and powerful and leave it at that). Besides the cats and Tuxedo Kamen, she has the least number of episodes. Mako-chan has brown hair. ^_^ In the anime (SM in particular), this is usually to signify that one is a commoner (ever notice heroines are usually blondes?). Does this imply she is of no importance? Who knows? ^_- Anyway, in this site---BRUNETTES RULE! (d-uh. in case you haven't noticed, the character in which this shrine is for is brunette.) Why is she always the first one to die?
