Beauty is found within...
What was your impression when you first saw Minako-chan? Yes, a plain girl that she is, someone with the common look, that cheerful face, that 'silly' grin... All this is true, and nobody can deny that Minako-chan is usually shown as the 'comic relief' of the story. People even sometimes find it hard to imagine Minako thinking or talking about something serious.
But then, is there something else that we cannot see? Something that would make our view of Minako a different one? Each senshi has their own special feature. Ami with her soft look, Rei with those small graceful eyes, Makoto with her natural fresh look and so goes on with the rest of the senshi.
Though Minako is charming and pretty whenever she smiles, we still cannot see the inner beauty. The beauty that isn't quite physical. The beauty that delves deeper than the beauty that is only skin-deep. | |
One of the few things that I've noticed about Minako-chan, is she'll sacrifice anything just to make somebody whom she loves happy. Even when it hurt her to do it, she tries her best because she knows it is what's good for her. In Episode 42, she was in tears but she said, "She's the one that Alan likes. Please!" Although it hurt her a lot to know that the one she loved didn't love her back, she accepted it and she let go of him. She just wanted everyone to be happy. If she fought back, nothing would have happened to her and she would instead have a heart that is full of hate. She'll do nothing and just hate and hate. But being the intelligent person that she is, she knew the consequences of hate, so she let go of Alan, and her past...

Sometimes, people think that Minako-chan's dream of being an idol is silly, but in Sailorstars Episode 192, Minako-chan entered another Contest and Yaten asked her why she can try so hard. Her answer is, "Because I want to answer to everyone's feelings. Usagi told me to give it my best. My dreams are everyone's dreams. Everyone's dreams are my dreams." It is for everyone and not just for herself. (I was wondering, a simple unselfish wish is 'silly'?) This is one of the many reasons that makes Minako-chan beautiful and special.
