Subject: Marriage Prospects: Minako

Running out of things to put up here,

MINAKO AINO (aka Sailor Venus, "Mina" in the DIC version and also
Sailor V.)

	Looks: Very pretty.  Unfortunately, she also looks too much like my
sister for comfort.  But if you like long blonde hair and good fashion
sense, Minako's here.
	Smarts:  Variable, she learns from experience better than Usagi, but
is almost as bad in school.  
	Personality:  Bright and sunny.  Her longer experience as a hero gives
her more self-confidence, but she's often the silliest of the Scouts.
Likes the spotlight and is good at selling her image.
	Cooking:  Not so good.  Has been too busy to improve her skills.
	Fighting Skills: Adequate.  
	Special Abilities:  As Sailor Venus, Crescent Beam Smash and other
light/metal based attacks.  As Sailor V has slightly different
attacks.  Artemis fits in here as her advisor.
	Competition:  Not a bunch, surprisingly.  Gets crushes easily and
drops them just as fast. (this may have changed in Supers or Stars,
let me know.)
	In-Laws:  Parents very similar to Usagi's.  I forget if she has a
brother.  The parents are nice middle-class folks, should be no
trouble to get along with.
	Economics:  If sales of Sailor V merchandise continue strong, she'll
have a nice little nest egg.  As she matures past the worst of her
silliness, she should be able to hold down regular jobs if necessary.
	Sex:  Normal.

	Overall:  Could be fun to live with, and definitely not your worst
choice of the Senshi.  (If you're a guy, your worst choice is Sailor
Uranus.  She don't do that...)

SKJAM!
