I just realized something, the personalities of the Sailor Senshi in the Toon Maker’s pilot of Sailor Moon is poorly researched. The writers do know that their personalities are based in astrology right? I mean the creator of the anime Naoko Takeuchi studied astronomy, so clearly she knew what she was doing on how everyone should act in the show. Let me explain:
Let’s start with Sailor Moon herself. The moon represents your emotions, moods, and feelings. The moon also rules over Cancer. Cancers tend to sensitive and gentle. This is why Usagi is such a crybaby in the anime. Cancer also rules the stomach, which is why Usagi is a glutton. With Victoria, we really don’t really see any sort of sensitivity or any mood other than happy or heroic. She watches Darian die in an explosion and cries a little, but it also implies that she got over it pretty quickly. Vicky is like “Oh well, my fiancé died 🤷♀️”.
Ami Mizuno is the smart one because Mercury is the planet of the mind. It determines how you think and process information. Ami is also a Virgo, and they tend to be intelligent, organized, and introverted. However with Blue (they straight up named her after a color tf), she doesn’t have much of a personality other than sassy. She speaks in one-liners, and it gives me Chandler Bing vibes.
They gave Ami’s personality to Sara/Sailor Jupiter. Jupiter is the planet of optimism, idealism, and expansion. Makoto is the most determined character out of the Sailor Senshi, with her dream of wanting to get married and owning a cake and flower shop. She is also a Sagittarius, which is ruled by Jupiter, and they fall in love very quickly. This is the reason why Makoto goes after every guy that reminds her of her senpai. They made Sara a one-dimensional nerd by saying stuff like “Ben Franklin believed that electricity could be transmitted right through air and he was right”.
Mars is the planet of aggression and rules over Aries. Rei is shown to be hot-headed, which is never seen by Dana. Aries tend to be competitive and impulsive. Dana is shown to like sports and planned to wear a sports jersey to a school dance, which doesn’t seem too far off from Aries tendencies, although I’m not sure if the writers were aware of it.
Toon Maker’s Sailor Venus seems to be the most faithful out of the Senshi. Venus is the planet of love and beauty, and rules over Libra which is Minako’s sign. Libras care about their beauty. Carrie does show that she cares about her looks and what to wear. When she’s fighting monsters, she says “if I break a nail, you’re really in for it.”
