aino minako usually hangs around her bestfriend, who is non other than hikaru-chan (looks very much like ami-chan! ^_^) the girl is usually after a lot of cute guys and idols (even as she accepted the duty to become a sailor senshi). yes, silliness is a trait that was never taken away from her, but even then, she did have a lot of fun as she admired her onii-chan, furuhata motoki and also tried to escape amano (very much like umino)... she is also very good at arcades and often beat another good player named otaku takuro. leading life just as usagi did; yes, it was still a normal life for this normal girl.

although life just seems so fun, sometimes, she feels so lonely and even has fears inside of her. artemis enters the picture and, even if they argue a lot, artemis and minako are proven to be truly inseparable. minako often treated him badly, but as a matter of fact, it's her own way of showing her affections (like slapping the life out of a fly off of his back, you know ^_-). even as artemis would want an owner who'd treat him more kindly (like hikaru-chan perhaps), this girl would truly be different and special in his heart as he would too in her heart...
