I think that would have happened while Rei was at school, now that you mention it?"the Rei." Not "Rei." Ominous.
Edit: isn't Wednesday when Rei got talent scouted by one of Blue's fairies?
Minako attends school now, so I'm pretty sure that this conversation would have to take place at least noticeably after Azabu-Juban Middle School or whatever the name is lets out. Rei's school seems to let out at just about exactly the same time.Given likely timings there's actually a good chance she's being scouted as we speak, we woke up about an hour before Japanese schools apparently usually let out.
It had the head of a bull and a body like a gorilla's and wings on its back and a long tail and the tail had a snake's head on the end.
"Uh… okay, maybe a few one hundredths, I dunno. She had hand grenades. And… stuff. There was a lot. She's better at smashing up wood and concrete than she is at smashing up Sailor Venuses; we dodge better. Really, though, her best move was the noodle attack."
*"Love" and "Justice" are Minako's fists.
Now now, the fight ended with Shampoo in some kind of wrestling hold!
I'm pretty sure we could give it to Haruka and no one would complain.The sword is a mystery box, but we already have one, and I don't really see us going down the Jar'Kai dual blades route. This is also not the sort of gift that we can just re-gift to another one of our allies to make better use of, because there are political ties to it. We couldn't be blamed for hanging it on a wall or stuffing it in a basement of our own though.
To be fair, Cologne probably routinely allows people to underestimate her just for shits and giggles, and Cologne is in a category of "old monster" that is very, very rare and 'a cut above' compared to almost anything vaguely human that walks the Earth.For all that Fudo is dangerous and suspicious. It's clear that his specialities are in non-magical politics and business.
He can't sense qi nor does he have the knowledge of the supernatural world to accuratly gauge strength.
Using Pantyhose Taro as a heavy against a old martial artist is one heck of a fail. That no one who knows martial artists would do.
Too polysyllabic, too likely to lead to confusion when spoken aloud. I think they'd just get random words or something. Probably less subtly punny than the ones the Brits use.Had this idea more related to the Missy side plot going on than anything.
American Codenames for the Senshi. Britain used Longstocking, but what if the USA used days?
Sailor Mercury/ Christmas Day
Sailor Venus/ Valentine's Day
Tuxedo Mask/ Independence Day
Sailor Moon/ President's Day
Sailor Mars/ All Saint's Day
Sailor Jupiter/ Arbor Day
Sailor Saturn/ Memorial Day
Sailor Uranus/ Labor Day
Sailor Neptune/ Thanksgiving Day
Sailor Pluto/ New Year's Day
Lady Sei/ Birthday
Luna/ All Hallow's Eve
Artemis/ Christmas Eve
So you're saying that Love and Justice are Sailor Venus's guns? Yeah, she probably doesn't skip working those arms.Now now, the fight ended with Shampoo in some kind of wrestling hold!
Longstocking alone is as many syllables as most of those in their entirety you know.
Eh. Fair. I was looking at "Independence Day" and "Memorial Day."Longstocking alone is as many syllables as most of those in their entirety you know.
Too on the nose. Once you draw a connection between holiday codenames and the Senshi, then anyone who knows the Senshi powerset can guess at least half of those. Defeats the purpose of codenames.Had this idea more related to the Missy side plot going on than anything.

And then the Starlights and Galaxia show up and they start just shoveling placeholder Longstocking names into a folder like they're the National Hurricane Center.(Which is a good thing for the Brits because they went from thinking there are one to six to eight and probably won't find out about Chibiusa or Hotaru for quite a while)
He's a Genjuro-level combatant with the right sword(as Mina managed to notice when he dragged out Taro) and probably has some Ki given IIRC it can manifest as battle auras in this setting; this seems to be more his other big flaw from 'Gear, namely that he's an arrogant insult to bastards that consequently has issues sometimes realising people aren't just going to do what he wants. He can put together measures to avoid that, sure, but he tends to be blindsided when those measures backfire(such as his 'Basa brainwashing).For all that Fudo is dangerous and suspicious. It's clear that his specialities are in non-magical politics and business.
