Now being honest, when I was 8-10 years old and all I had access to was the
DiC edit of Sailor Moon, I almost
thought this was a good idea. Why? Because as "Darien" and
"Raye" they were both major assholes to "Serena" so as a
kid, I figured bullies belonged with bullies and maybe they'd end up having
asshole bullies for children, before I dunno, Darien beats her and Raye
cleans his ass out in divorce court.
No, he didn't father Rei's daughter. But come on, you should expect me to
squeeze in Parallel Sailor Moon into everything by now. Hell, I even hid
Kousagi in here. Moving on. I'm going back to using Japanese names BTW.
So anyway, after the series started to pick up steam, I started to have a
change of heart. I started to see some of the flaws with this relationship.
But now that I'm an adult and I've gotten so used to the Japanese version, I
freaking hate this relationship, and it looks like I am really not by myself
on this. If you look up "Rei and Mamoru" on Google, the fan art for
this ship stops way early in the search, and articles about why Mamoru is
better off with Usagi start popping up.
This
relationship did nothing but waste everyone's time and make Rei look like the
ultimate douche. It was already bad enough that Toei decided to make her a
straight up bully towards Usagi for just about all of the first season, but
this entire fiasco made Rei out to be conniving, vicious, pushy, hostile,
spiteful and a control freak. 90's anime Rei deviates so far from her manga
and Crystal counterparts that she may as well be a different character
altogether.
Before we go any further, I need to address one of the most popular rumors of
the new generation of Moonies. It's theorized that Toei opted to change most
of Rei's personality and even her dreams to better match her voice actress at
the time, J-Pop idol Michie Tomizawa.
While that may explain that one episode where Rei sings for her school
presentation and why she kind of thieves a lot of Minako's dreams and quirks
overall, I want you to stop and think very hard about this for a second. This
rumor makes the claim (and this was hinted in a few magazines) that Rei's
personality was to mimic her voice actress's fiery personality.
YOU ACTUALLY WANTED REI TO BE A BITCH BECAUSE YOU THINK TOMIZAWA-SAN WAS A
BITCH TOO????
Now, I've never met her, so I can't say how she really is, but what I've been
finding over and over is that because Tomizawa-san
was assertive, the MEN who wrote this season decided to make Rei a bitch
because they viewed her fiery personality as being a bitch. This right here
illustrates the misogyny of the 1990s. Are you a docile little doormat? No?
Then you're a bitch. And why not? It fits so many other issues they'd do in
later seasons, such as erasing The Amazoness Quartet's powers and making
Chibiusa a joke character, omitting half of the Sailor Animamates, erasing
Sailor Cosmos/Chibi Chibi's true story or lest we forget, making Kaolinite
and The Witches 5 practically beg Professor Tomoe for attention. Yeah, those
of you who watched the 3rd season of Crystal got a big fat wake up
call, right? So you can imagine the bucket of problems I have with this
theory. Is it true? Well the evidence seems that way, but if that's the case,
then good lord, I bet you're all happy Crystal had A LOT more of a female
touch, now aren't you?
Another theory her voice actress brought up was that Rei is mistaking an
admiration for Mamoru's brains and independence as being feelings of love,
but I can't see Rei being that confused at this age. The script makes it
crystal clear that Rei wants Mamoru to be her boyfriend, and all of the
desires that go with having a boyfriend are front and center. I can see her
MAYBE mistaking lust for love, which is easy to do at her age, and fits
everything I'm about to type.
Okay, so now that I've gotten that off my chest, let's go back to the drama
that is this relationship. So it all starts in episode 15 of the original
anime where Rei finds out that this beautiful park is going to be bulldozed
and the old man who runs it is going to be out of a job. He has no money and
no pension, so he's facing the prospect of being homeless in a bad economy.
Does Rei give two thirds of a shit? Nope! That's Ami's job. Ami is the one
with a heart about the old man. What's Rei thinking? "I better get a
boyfriend and go on a date fast before the park disappears." Wow,
fucking wow, right?
So because of this, she starts asking Motoki a bunch of NOSEY questions about
Mamoru. Motoki lets it slip that Mamoru is living alone (we find out later
that's because he is an orphan with no family) but because his dead family
was loaded, he is by proxy, a rich ass motherfucker and he is going to a good
college and came from a good high school.
So right off the bat, she doesn't even love him. She initially wants to use
him just to say she had a date at the park, but then when she learns about
his life, she decides to use him even more because he is rich, is going to a
good school so ergo has good job prospects, and she thinks he's kinda cute.
This bitch is a straight up USER.
Now you're probably used to this ugly, kinda racist stereotype of women,
especially women from Asia, where all they can think about is what a man can
do for them. If I have a rich/smart husband with job prospects, I can hitch a
ride on them coat tails to the stars, right? And supposedly when this show
first aired in Japan, there was an economic free fall and A LOT of girls and
women really were thinking about how the right guy could raise their social status.
That's the stereotype everyone got comfortable with, right? Well here's the
thing.
REI AIN'T BROKE.
Although we never see him in the 90s anime, Rei's father (top left corner) is
a rich ass politician. And we know Rei is loaded herself, because in a few
episodes, she's gonna rent a fucking mansion on the beach for vacation.
Have you ever rented a mansion on a beach?? If this 14 year old can easily
afford to rent a mansion on a beach, then BITCH YOU DON'T NEED MAMORU'S
WALLET.
So in order to take money from an orphan, this shameless bitch actively
stalks Mamoru specifically so she can get in his pants. Yes folks. They
straight up made Sailor Mars, champion of justice, a no good succubus.
She even gets so obsessive, she plans out what she thinks he will do.
Well her little plan backfires initially, and she gets a face full of cement
and a stomp to the head for her trouble. If it had ended here and she'd find
another guy, I could have lived with this.
Just to drive home how very much this should have been the end of it, Mamoru
walks fucking away. Yeah, Captain I-Need-To-Save-Every-Female just walked
away after assaulting her. Yes, you can argue that Rei's injuries are
accidental, but come on, this should have ended with her calling him an
unsavory name under her breath and moving onto the next available dick in town.
But NOPE. She persists, making Mamoru VERY uncomfortable.
Yes, I am laughing my ass off at Usagi's line right here, but she's not
wrong. He IS too old for the both of them (The old anime aged him up by a
year, making him 18 while the girls are 14, Rei having just turned 14 not
that long ago) but that's not even the worst thing.
He is being coerced into a situation he does NOT want to be in.
Now look, I know what you were about to type, so let me clear the air.
Yes, he is a grown ass man.
Yes, he should be screaming "NO" from the top of his lungs.
But we also learn in this season that he has a hard time telling people who
ought to hear it "NO" unless they happen to be Usagi. Usagi is the
only person he feels comfortable enough around to show his fugly side.
And Rei's daddy is a major politician.
So Rei has political power.
Rei can make him disappear with a phone call.
Rei is a Miko/shrine maiden.
Rei is also a 14 year old girl.
Rei can scream and make the police come take his ass away.
Rei can fuck his entire life up and he already knows that.
So yes, Mamoru is contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and that is
super wrong.
But Mamoru is also being coerced into a relationship he does not want.
And yes, this level of abuse DOES HAPPEN TO MEN TOO.
So yeah, Mamoru finds himself in a predicament you usually hear about with
women instead, where he gets pressured into a date with Rei. Because she is
paying, he feels obligated to drink coffee with her even though he is very
uncomfortable. I feel like I need to say this again. Yes, it is entirely
possible for a man to be in this situation. It has happened to men. It is
still wrong. This is exactly the same as when a female is pressured into
going out with a guy just because he paid for a drink she never asked for.
All we did was switch the gender roles. This is every bit as wrong.
Although I will give Rei some credit here, she DOES figure out that Mamoru is
Tuxedo Mask before anybody else, so at least she has just this little bit of
intelligence going on.
Whenever she's around him, it comes across that she doesn't really care about
the same things he does. Like on the first date, he's showing environmental
concern and do you think she's paying attention to that? Of course not. Only
thing on her mind us Tuxedo dick.
Episode 18 we get another helping of this madness as Rei drags Mamoru to a
doll show. I get that it's super stereotypical to think he wouldn't want to
be at a doll show because he's a man, but that's not really the issue. SHE is
making him uncomfortable way more than the dolls do.
In episode 18 and again in episode 27, we get the firm impression that SHE is
calling the shots. SHE is making the plans, but he's either incredibly
uncomfortable or just not paying attention to her. She's all over him,
grabbing his arm every chance she can get, but he is either trying to back
away or he is so focused on his thoughts that he forgets she's even there.
That is just how little she matters to him.
So what's Usagi thinking during all of this? Well back in episode 15, Usagi
objected to their relationship, but while everyone convinced themselves that
it was because Usagi was jealous over Rei getting Mamoru and not her, that
was NEVER the case. Her initial rejection is over the fact that Rei is trying
to start an improper relationship with a grown ass man, and in the student
handbook for both her school and Rei's ultra strict all girls school, that is
a giant no-no, the type you can get expelled for. Remember, in Japan at this
time, losing face was the worst possible thing you could do outside of committing
an actual crime. Rei goes to a very strict, very elite school and this could
have caused a major scandal. Usagi's other concern is that because Mamoru is
a grown man, he may end up hurting Rei, so even though Rei had done nothing
but be a bully up to this point, Usagi cared enough about her team mate to
show rational concern, and all Luna did was give her shit for it. And to a
lesser degree, Usagi does show a little concern knowing that Rei is dragging
Mamoru around. She knows that's wrong. But ultimately, she's more afraid of
crossing the wrong boundaries than she is of never being with Mamoru at this
point in the series. Even in episode 28, Usagi is more worried about Rei than
she is herself. Does she have any feeling for Mamoru here? Slightly, but not
really enough to be as jealous as people think she is. I'm really sad that so
many people overlook this character growth in Usagi, and only focus on the
idea of her getting jealous. But don't worry. If it's jealousy you want, just
keep reading.
So aside from Usagi being the voice of reason (yes, NOW you may panic) nobody
ever hints at Rei and Mamoru's relationship being horrible until episode 29,
when Motoki tells Mamoru that he would never be with Usagi or any of her
friends, because they are all still in middle school. This is interesting
seeing as how his Crystal, manga and PGSM selves have all been flirty with
Makoto much to the chagrin of Reika in the first two I mentioned, and it's
refreshing because this is a grown ass man who doesn't want anything from 14
year old babies, but I digress. When Motoki brings up why he would never date
Usagi or her friends and I forgot to mention this, but Mamoru at this stage
still only refers to Rei, Ami and Makoto as "Usagi's friends" or
rather "Bun Head's friends" did you catch that? Not "Rei"
or "Makoto" or even "Rei-chan" just "those girls
Usagi hangs around" isn't that wild? Anyway, when Motoki brings his
grown ass man knowledge to the table, Mamoru freaks out and thinks of 14 year
old Rei, and for the first time, starts to really question this relationship.
Oh, right. I should probably bring this up. Are you ready for this? So get
this. In episode 30, we get Yuichiro, who literally shows up on Rei's
doorstep. Who is he? Another rich ass, grown ass man posed as a love interest
for Rei. First of all, SHE'S 14 what is with her dating around with grown ass
men?? Second, she is still with Mamoru at this point, ya wanna wrap up one
fiasco before you start another one??
Look, I get that her dad is AWOL and all, but her granddaddy right there. Why
doesn't he step in and say something??
WOAH TIME OUT!! AIN'T YOU DATING MAMORU??
Old man, I wish you would take interest in what she's been doing this whole
time.
Well by episode 31, Mamoru starts straight up ghosting Rei. He's not
answering her calls and their segments in these episodes are getting
mercifully smaller. I do have to admit, this is kind of a dick move and he
should have just told her "NO" and broken up with her the right
way, but can you blame him?
But that's okay, because she almost ends up on a date with Yuichiro, and only
misses it by playing hard to get. (Hey, isn't that robot from one of Toei's
tokusatsu shows?) Yeah, play this episode back again. She gets ghosted by
Mamoru, and is only mildly concerned that something happened to him, so she
entertains the thought of dating another grown ass man right behind his back.
THIS TWO TIMING LITTLE DOUCHE PURSE, AFTER ALL OF THAT?? REALLY??
Well, karma must have her own Eternal Tiare, folks, because you all know
what's coming in episode 35, and it's a long time in coming too.
Oh yeah. He ain't yo' man no mo.
But you know what is really shitty? Like right after Usagi becomes Princess
Serenity, and everyone gets the group flashback so we can see he has ALWAYS
been Serenity's man, and the princess Rei has been bullying for all this time
uses her wand and her crystal to save everybody from being toasted by Zoisite,
and everyone watched Mamoru get stabbed to save Princess Serenity, Rei has
the nerve, the absolute gall, to walk over to NOT HER MAN ANYMORE YOU CONNIVING
LITTLE TWAT WAFFLE, pick his injured ass up, shake him and can you read the
subtitles? Ask him to pull himself together. BITCH, HE BLEEDING!! I want you
to take a look at that screenshot up there, look at her friends. They all
know an intervention needs to be happening like yesterday.
Oh, and here's the best part. SHE LET HIS ASS GET KIDNAPPED. Look at all the
room she had, and Kunzite was just able to go *bink*
and kidnap his ass.
When Sailor Moon does wake up, she has a bit of a break down. She's trying to
separate her life as a 14 year old girl from that of a superhero from that of
her past life as a murdered princess, and she's trying to process the guilt
of Mamoru having been injured and kidnapped, and Sailor Mars just up and
slaps her and calls her a coward for wait, what was that again? Oh yeah. Having
human emotions! Oh shame on you, kid Usagi whom I was supposed to protect in
my past life and I blew that too! No, you're the real coward, not my bitch
ass.
Rei starts to cry and let that jealousy flag fly. Yeah, we're supposed to
feel sad for her because the man she coerced into a one sided relationship
actually belongs to the girl she's been bullying? Am I supposed to feel sorry
for her? Excuse me??
Episode 36 Artemis (who in the previous episode asked everyone to give Usagi
some breathing room) suddenly has no chill. Rei FOR ONCE actually sticks up
for Usagi, saying she knows how she feels. The one you love is missing, and
this is supposed to make me think she really did love Mamoru when we can see
that was not the case.
While Makoto is nice enough to feel for Rei, thinking maybe Rei did have
feelings after all, Artemis still has no chill. I just want to point that out
that he has no time for your bullshit.
Now near the end of this episode, they find out that Mamoru is possessed, and
I guess this is about as close to a break up as we're going to get out of
these two.
This is evil Tuxedo Mask for "bitch please, lose my damn number".
Translation: Bitch, come at me again and I'mma
commit a hate crime.
Translation: This bitch ain't loyal, watch your back, Sailor Moon.
But you know what? Even Makoto has a limit. By the end of the episode, Makoto
sees two different responses. One is out of Rei, who until he rebuked her,
was acting like he'll just come home and go back to being her puppet, while
Usagi was just happy he's still alive even if he is evil. So Makoto joins
Artemis on Team Get-The-Fuck-Over-It and Rei just has to eat it.
Episode 38 is supposed to act as the closure to this fiasco. Usagi plays her
locket, and then slams it closed and apologizes to Rei, because she didn't
want to hurt her feelings. She actually addresses Rei's relationship as if it
wasn't a one sided issue, and Rei tells her that she's already decided to let
this go. Honestly, I'm proud of Usagi here. She really wasn't trying to be a
homewrecker or anything, and even though Rei has been (and continues to be
past this point) a major bully, she was kind enough to show Rei some sort of
compassion here.
I guess it works to a small point, because Rei actually uses Endymion's love
for Serenity to try to make Mamoru wake up out of this possession, and it
actually almost works.
So you must be thinking "Okay, so she acknowledges that this was wrong
from the start, and her friendship with Usagi is going to make all of this
stop and we won't have to deal with their relationship ever again"
right?
LOL.
So in episode 56, Rei catches Mamoru praying at her shrine. He was supposed
to be in a play at Juban Hall with his friends, but his guy friends are
bigger bitches than Usagi's friends, and they all had a big fight and fucked
off. So Rei calls everyone together and suggests they invite themselves into
the production and take over. She decides and let me be clear, NOBODY ASKED
HER that they're all going to do a play based on Snow White.
And she casts Mamoru as the prince, and then demands to be Snow White,
specifically so she can kiss him in front of everyone.
What a bitch thing to do. You KNOW Usagi is trying to get him to remember who
he is. You KNOW they are supposed to be an item, and yet here you are, still
trying to push Mamoru into doing things he isn't comfortable with. He didn't
ask you to do any of this. You just came here and decided you were going to
kiss him in a Snow White play. You hussy.
Episode 63 Tuxedo Mask pulls Sailor Moon back, allowing Sailor Mars to bring
out her newest attack. In return, Mars nudges Moon towards getting close to
him again.
Now in episode 66, things start to get weird. Mamoru, Usagi and Chibiusa are
trying to prepare for Chibiusa's school curry party and Chibiusa gets a
little frustrated with Usagi. We get a little flashback, giving us the idea
that Usagi and Mamoru are her parents, but Chibiusa tries to brush it off.
Anyway, post spat while Usagi is honestly trying to get the right groceries
for this, Rei walks by. She actually scolds Chibiusa for being mean to (I dont
care who this butt hurts) her mom, Usagi, and Chibiusa tries to change the
subject by asking Rei to come to her school in Usagi's place, because Rei can
actually cook. Rei at first refuses, and Mamoru even suggests leaving
Chibiusa with Rei for the day so that he isn't seen with Rei, and Rei
reconsiders.
Now full disclosure, Chibiusa doesn't yet know that Rei and Mamoru used to
have a one sided relationship. But all three of them just feel dirty and
wrong sitting together like this. Rei is not Chibiusa's mom, and she and Rei
both decide at the same time to go get Usagi.
Remember what I said before about when I was a child and how I was thinking
they would make a family? Well this is as close to that asshole family as we
will ever get. Embrace it. But even here, look at Mamoru's body language, he
is really uncomfortable even after all this time.
She even breaks away from this scene early, and you can just feel that bounce
in her step leaving the kid with her father.
Episode 70 I'm throwing in just because Rei and Usagi were talking about
Mamoru. Rei insists that even though he's being a cold asshole, Usagi should
continue to pursue him, and Koan just flat out turns off the evil for a
minute to teach these girls about self respect. This really gives some
insight into what Rei thinks is a relationship, and you know it's bad when a
main villain stops her villainy on a dime to stand up and say something.
Episode 77 she again nudges Sailor Moon towards Tuxedo Mask, this time
getting them back together, and aside from episode 88 where she does call out
to Mamoru when Black Lady hits him and the R movie where she does help Sailor
Moon gather the courage to go save him, you'd think this is where this thing
ends and we don't hear about it again.
SYKE! You were wrong, now weren't you? So in episode 93, Usagi is really
trying her damndest to grow the fuck up. She really
is trying to study more, but when she reaches out to her friends for help,
she gets her little moon princess hand slapped proverbially. So Mamoru
decides to take her on the classiest date of her life. Like all the stops are
pulled. We're talking fancy dress and a classical music concert, a night fit
for a princess. And who fucking shows up? Rei and her friends to phone in a
fake apology and use Usagi's special date as a chance to invite herself and
their buds to the concert Mamoru paid to go enjoy ALONE WITH USAGI.
Then while Usagi and Mamoru are trying to enjoy the concert and their date,
Rei starts beating on Usagi and yelling at her while also making Mamoru (are
you tired of me saying this yet?) extremely uncomfortable. She also almost
gets the two of them thrown out. The fuck kind of friend would even do
something so awful?? Did you forget that is your future queen??
Look at poor Mamoru. He is SHOOK by the fact he could have ended up with this
crazy bitch.
His hands are over his heart, he looks like he just saw Jesus and Jesus was
like "run Mamo-chan" and he's all like "Oh thank GOD I'm not
having Chibiusa with THAT."
Do you think he even sleeps at night? Hell no, this will haunt his nightmares
way worse than what Queen Nehellenia's gonna do at the start of Sailor StarS.
Boy probably prowls the night as Tuxedo Mask so she won't be waiting for him
in his dreams.
And then after a daimon fucks up the concert, Mamoru offers to take Usagi to
a nice dinner and what does Rei do? She muscles her way in and uses everyone
to pressure Mamoru into paying for their meals too, and she starts hanging
onto his arm like she's his girlfriend again. What a fucking bitch, I can't
even believe she had the nerve to do that shit.
In episode 101, Mamoru calls Rei because Usagi has hit him and he doesn't
understand why. It's a cringe moment seeing Usagi of all people resort to
domestic violence, and again, this abuse DOES happen to men and IT IS STILL
ABUSE and I can't believe Usagi did that, but anyway, he's only calling Rei
to get her advice on how to fix things with Usagi. God, I feel so awful for
him.
Well Rei is no better! She uses the opportunity to bitch him out over what
went wrong in their relationship before reminding him that it's Usagi's
birthday and he forgot. Yes, she went there. This man has been abused and all
he is looking for is help, and Rei just stands there blaming him for what
went wrong in the relationship she coerced him in. That is straight up mental
abuse.
In the Super Famicom game Sailor Moon: Another Story, there's a dream
sequence where Rei and Mamoru get back together. She makes it clear she
really isn't that over him in the game.
The true end to this nightmare comes in episode 136, but boy is it a doozy.
Rei sort of pressures Mamoru into staying at her place, after the group study
session at his apartment ends up with a fire extinguisher destroying his
teeny weeny apartment.
And can we just stop for a minute and appreciate Sailor Moon Crystal? Not
only is Rei never a bitch in this anime and Mamoru not an asshole, but the
two of them never hook up, Rei ends up super sweet with the rare exception of
three mini scenes. Usagi and Mamoru get together way early, Mamoru is sweet
and his apartment is actually large and kind of nice.
I don't know why his apartment is so basic in the 90s. I get that he's a
college kid and the original staff didn't like him so much (you can tell
because Yamucha voices him, LOL) but come on, This
is Tuxedo Mask. You can still decorate on a budget!
Anyway, seeing as how Mamoru is in a bad spot, it's decided he will stay at
Rei's place, but Diana doesn't trust Rei, so she decides to guard Mamoru so
that nothing happens to him.
Rei's grandfather, you remember, the guy who flipped out over Yuichiro wanting
to be with Rei? Well not only does he want to push Rei to get with Mamoru,
but he has a crush on him too! Not only that, but we learn here that he was
totally unaware of Rei and Mamoru's relationship. That's right. She bullied
Mamoru into a relationship, and then didn't even have the courage to face her
grandfather, the man who stepped in and raised her when her daddy went AWOL,
and tell him who she was dating. Un fucking real. And he actually would have
been HAPPY if she had told him.
And yes.
Usagi's friends to have to restrain her before she beats Rei's ass in front
of her child.
Oh, and Rei also hid her relationship from Yuichiro too. She dated Mamoru for
almost a full season and didn't tell her grandfather or her other man. This
raggedy bitch.
Oh yeah, did I mention? They all forgot to tell Chibiusa. Yeah kid, remember
how dirty you felt when she sat with your daddy and you didn't know why? Well
that's because your favorite auntie was almost yo' mama. Now you know. And
knowing is half the battle.
MY EYES!!
So Rei ends up seeing Mamoru in the nude, albeit not on purpose.
Do you think that matters to Usagi? Oh HELL no. Having known Rei for this
long, Usagi couldn't trust Rei with her man, so she broke in as a literal
ninja and made herself at home on Rei's property. Yeah, you're the daughter
of a politician? Bitch I'm about to be the damn QUEEN. I'm not afraid of your
boujee ass.
Now of course, everyone else in this episode makes the claim that Usagi needs
to trust Mamoru more and that breaking and entering is a crime, and okay, I
see that, but let's be real here. Rei pushed Mamoru into this situation. Rei
has already proven more than once that when it comes to Mamoru, she has no
loyalty to Usagi except for three instances, Rei has already shown she has no
problem with manipulating Mamoru and even here, even here, she blames him for
the problem of her walking in on his ass. She takes absolutely zero
responsibility for her actions. She blames Mamoru for every bad situation she
puts him in.
As for Usagi? Have you ever seen this show before? She has had to bring his
ass back from so many bad women who manipulated him and possessed him that
protecting him should be second nature to her by now. Plus? Think this over.
Not only is he supposed to be her future husband, but she has been raising
their daughter now for two seasons while she is still in school. The stakes
for Usagi are A LOT higher right now than they were the first two seasons,
and this frienemy just went and put her man up at
her house like she already claim him on her taxes. Ah HELL YES Usagi gets to
be jealous. HELL YES she gets to sneak up on Rei's ass, and HELL YES Rei
earned that beating she took when the camera panned back.
Hell, I don't even believe Rei when she says this. She even called him
"Mamo-chan" instead of her normal "Mamoru-san" right
here. If you take no interest in Mamoru, then why is he in your home? Usagi
didn't even get a chance to make an arrangement at her house, you know damn
well at this point where Mamoru has been coming over to help her and their
baby study that she could just lie her ass off and have her dumbass parents
believe he's just there to study. Not even like it's the only time THIS
SEASON Usagi or Chibiusa has had strange people stay at their house. But
nope, Rei just pushed Mamoru into this mess before Usagi could even have a
chance with her man, and poor little Diana has lost sleep trying to look out
for him on behalf of Usagi, her future queen.
Did you know Rei was the victim of the day? I didn't even feel sorry for her.
And you know what? Neither did Mamoru. He was more upset at himself for not
helping Usagi than he was Rei, how do you like them apples?
Well at least this episode was our final closure on this bizarre
relationship, as Rei is already on the prowl for her next boyfriend.
You know, while her other man is trying to get her attention.
