Sailorvenus/Aino Minako

Sailorvenus was the fifth senshi to appear, saving the senshi when they were trapped by Kunzite. She was also Sailor V, the famous movie/video-game star. Venus is technically the leader of the Inner Senshi and one of the strongest, if you go by experience. Whenever she is in a pinch she makes of spur-of-the-moment attacks including her famous "Furious Random Cresent Beam Shots"
Personality-wise Minako can be seen as a ditz, based on the way she acts during the seasons. She is boy-crazy, somewhat hyper and has a habit of misquoting proverbs. She also has experienced a lot of hurt in her life, specifically in England where she lost her first love Alan, to her best friend Katarina. Constantly searching for love, Minako has many crushes during the five seasons including her friend Asai, a teacher at Juuban Elementary Mr. Honjo and she even double-dates Hawkseye and Tigerseye in SuperS.
Minako's dream is to be an idol and she attends idol auditions hoping to be spotted. In Stars she is accepted to the final round of an idol audition but she puts the letter away, deciding to go with her senshi duty. She is happy though that she can be an idol whenever she chooses.
