Fav: Ami/ Sailor Mercury why well she is a great swimmer and being a swimmer I would have to say that she would indefenitly kick my butt.
Least fav: Serena/Sailor Moon because I find it hard to believe that a cry baby ends up becoming a queen. (no offense to the Sailor Moon fans)

Since I haven't posted on this topic yet I figured I might as well weigh in.
My favorite senshi is Sailor Mars. I like characters with psychic or spiritual powers (not to mention characters who can control fire) and, despite what people who are mostly familiar with the dub think about her, I like her personality and her relationship with Usagi.
My least favorite by a fairly large margin is Chibi Moon. I won't get too much into it, I'll just saw I find her annoying most of the time (thought she was tolerable for most of S).

Favorite: My absolute favorite would have to be Uranus. I find her speech to be so beautiful and poetic, especially between herself and Michiru. I also enjoy her and Neptune's fighting stradegies and abilities, especially when they became part of Galaxia's rule in Stars to try and eliminate her.

Least Favorite: This would have to be Chibiusa for me, as well. It's not that I don't like her, it's just...well..yeah she's intolerable sometimes. I just enjoy when her and Usagi have comical fights.

My other favorite would have to be Venus. The American dub made her far too ditzy and made such a mistake leaving out her past episode. So beautiful!

Yeah, I like Sailor Uranus too. :) She's not my favourite, but I really admire the way she can keep going with her mission even though she doubts herself, and they way she can be more realistic about events than some of the other soldiers. :)

But I would have to pick Sailor Saturn as my favourite. :) She has the prettiest, most unique Fuku (don't you just love those petal-like shoulder pads?) and her Super Fuku is so cute too.

Also, I like her personality, the way she's mature beyond her years, but still so sweet and cute. Plus... she's so powerful! Definately as powerful as Sailor Moon. I wish she has appeared in Sailor Stars more. She could have used her Silence Glaive as a weapon to fight, that would have been cool to see. :)

I really don't have a least favourite, each Soldier has their own strenghts that I like and admire so I can't really pick any I am least fond of. :)

One reason I also love Mars (as she would definitely be one of my top Senshi, as well) is also because of her relationship with Usagi. I love the constant reminder that their fighting only brings them closer. Their friendship (particularly in the first season) really shines through ;)

my fav senshi would definitely be sailor Saturn, she represents my planet of the zodiac and i just find her totally awesome. i also like the story about her past and how she gets to become Mistress 9 (fav villian btw) and her Silence Glaive is just the coolest.

as for least favorite, can't really say, they are all pretty cool but i guess it would be Sailor Star Maker, cuz she/he can kinda be cold at times, and sometimes i just can't figure her/him out.

IN ORDER OF LIKABILITY:
Ami: She is just so quiet, kind and studious that she is hard not to love. I really cannot abide when people say that they don't like her because she is "Boring". She isn't! I also really appreciate her love of marine stuff (see my profile).

Minako: She's always so cheerful and happy, and is a friend to everyone. I really like her character, and the simplicity and cuteness of her transformation and pose. I really think that I am one part Ami, one part Minako, and one part Makoto :).

Michiru: She is so devoted to Haruka, and so musical and elegant. When people say that she is "Too Perfect", it bothers me. Like when people say that Ami is boring.

IN ORDER OF DISLIKABILITY:
Usagi: She's just so whiny and cries about everything. I mean, please, get a spine.

Chibiusa: Let's just say this: I like her when she's normal, not so much when she's acting like Usagi. And how it seems like she is in love with her dad (YES I KNOW SHE ISN'T) is just disturbing.
“See this butt? Yeah. Look at it. LOOK AT MY BUTT. This is all you’re getting. MY BUTT to look at it. Yeah, bet you’re sorry now, aren’t you? You’d like to see my cute fuzzy face, wouldn’t you? But all you’re getting is the BUTT. LOOK AT IT. LOOK AT MY BUTT. Sucker.”
The thing is, Henrietta has—how can I put this? Kind of a big butt. If Henrietta were a celebrity? She’d be J-Lo.
Not that J-Lo has what I would call a big butt. But others have opined that this is so. I think J-Lo has a normal, healthy butt. As does Henrietta.

I like them all, and who my favorite is depends on the day. The ones I seem to like the most are Venus, Chibimoon, and Saturn.
Venus because of how many humorous episodes she has, and how she seems to be a different person inside than outside.
Chibimoon because her hair fascinates me, and I like misunderstood characters.
Saturn because purple is my favorite color, she is (arguably) the most powerful of the planetary senshi. and I could relate to her in the S season (the part about her being shunned by her peers at school).

I don't really have a least favorite. If I was asked to pick, I'd probably say Mercury in the anime, but not the manga or live-action (where she is less, well... bland). For having so many filler episodes and even a special dedicated to her (which annoys me to begin with because the other senshi should have just as many), she certainly didn't change much from being a "shy nerdy girl", and I couldn't relate to her much. In the manga and live-action, I find her much more interesting.
Really, I don't ever "hate" or even "dislike" a character. Usually I just say "the character who interests me the least", since that is what holds true. No one ever "sucks", "is annoying", or "must die", in my world.

Here goes.....

Favorites:
I like Minako because she's ditzy, outgoing, and I think the funniest of of the senshi. I love it in Stars when she stalks the Three Lights. lol. Makoto because she can cook and clean, and beat up any boy who gives her crap! Usagi because you just have to lover her! (well you don't, but I do) she's just to sweet! I actually love all the inners, but those are the top three.

Least favorites:
In the anime I really don't like Mamoru, I love him to death in the manga, but in the anime he's pigheaded, kinda' snobby, and seems cold and uncaring to Usagi. I also don't like Yaten or Taiki, I just wanna smack them upside the head when Seiya was mad at them for saying bad things about Usagi and they just sit there and blink at him.



[spoiler]
It's like, they're saying Usagi doesn't understand, and blah blah blah, or when Uranus said, "you don't seem to understand your position" and Taiki says "I throw your words back at you" or something like that, and it's like, who are you to say all this? You didn't defend your planet, you ran away!! At least she and the girls are trying.[/spoiler]

sorry, long post

sorry, long post
1) Then have you seen episode 185? (the Misa one) You'll be glad to know that Seiya punches/hits/somehow knocks Taiki down in it, since you said you want to smack him/her. I'm pretty sure no one besides Galaxia hits Yaten, though I might be wrong.

[spoiler]2) I never quite understood what that stuff they were saying in the argument/almost-brawl meant, and I've rewatched that episode a bunch of times, since it's my second favorite for Seiya-hating reasons. But as for the last thing, it sounds like Galaxia rendered their planet uninhabitable, at least for a while, and then ran off to do the same to others' planets, so it was, according to Maker in episode 191, either die there or run away to fight another day. And they didn't really run away, they obviously followed Galaxia, too, otherwise they'd be somewhere else in the universe, still running away and never having the SailorStars story! It would be like if someone burned your house down and tried to attack you there, wouldn't you want to get out of the burning building?![/spoiler][/spoiler]

Favorite is hard to determine for me because Sailor Mercury was my first favorite, but once I saw season S, I fell for Uranus. Haruka wins favorite here.

Least favorite is much easier: Sailor Starmaker. God, I couldn't STAND Taiki! He/she was very rightous in my eyes and really would hardly listen to anyone else.

Hi Rainbow! I saw episode 185, I saw all the Stars episodes, but I was more referring to when they were being jerks about Usagi.

[spoiler]
Anyways, as far as what you said goes, you made some valid points, I would run away from a burning building! But I probably wouldn't mock someone else who has the willpower to protect their planet, and pretend like I'm better than they are. As far as I know (I could be wrong) it was just the same way Earth was attacked. So shouldn't they have tried to defend their planet? You may recall later in episode 191, when Seiya said "Look, these girls are fighting
their lives, and not giving up. When the evil hands of Galaxia came, we ran away, but was that really right?" Giving me the impression, they could've indeed have tried to fight back, but didn't have the strong willpower to do so. Now, I'm not saying I might not have done what they did, but I think it's unfair of them to act all high and mighty about everything, that's all. And, I seem to recall Taiki also saying in that episode that Usagi brings them hardship. Aside from Seiya's injury, what hardship might that be? I think that's very unfair of him/her to say. [/spoiler]

Anyways, I could be wrong about all this stuff, but I don't think I am. That's about all I think. Take care!

Then I'd say that Seiya's contradicting him/herself, because if you look at
[spoiler]in the visions he/she shows Usagi in 190 it shows some sort of shadow or apocalypse going over the planet--I'd almost say Galaxia "Silenced" the place, if this was the S season![/spoiler]

hmm, perhaps you're right.

[spoiler]
I just sort of always figured that he was showing her what happened in high speed, because it did take a really long time for all this to happen. This was had been going on for a while before Earth got involved, so I didn't really think it really happend that fast. I could be wrong though, it just doesn't make any sense to me that she wouldn't attack Earth in the same way, but, it's just a show, guess it doesn't always have to be logical.[/spoiler]

Has anyone else experienced drastic shifts in who their favorites are over the course of their life as a Sailor Moon fan? Because I have:
Usagi/Sailor Moon: Actually, I used to hate her for being ditzy, but then something made me like that more and now she's a favorite.
Makoto/Sailor Jupiter: When I first became a Sailor Moon fan, I liked her being a strong, athletic girl but once I found out more about her personality she became more annoying to me.
Haruka/Sailor Uranus: Odd, but she used to be my favorite when I was a Cloverway watcher. Then for some time she actually was one I hated, I think, for being aloof (when I liked Taiki for the same reason) but now she's more towards the middle of my list.
Michiru/Sailor Neptune: Not as drastic as Usagi, but for the longest time I hated her for being "perfect" but then when I saw SailorStars she got more towards the middle with Uranus.
Setsuna/Sailor Pluto: Believe it or not, she used to be a favorite too, then, about the time I started liking Usagi more I started hating Pluto.
Mamoru/Tuxedo Mask: I used to not like him because I thought he was the "man who saves the girls all the time" but then when I saw that he got rescued too I liked him.
Yaten/Star Healer: I recall switching from being neutral to her, to not liking her because I wasn't sure what her personality was, then to my current status of liking her.

The others have stayed pretty much in their current rankings, though.

Favorite:

My favorite senshi(s) has to be Usagi, Minako and Rei. Because my personality ranges between those three. Like Usagi I can be ditzy and blonde. Minako is into sports like I am, and Rei can sort of be a bitch and snotty like me! n.n

Least Favorite:

Mamoru. He just seems so cold and distant. I don't like him.

Rainbow, I know I sure have.
My favorites used to be Chibiusa and Makoto, while I still love both of them, Chibiusa just isn't one of my favorites anymore.

[spoiler]My least favorites were Haruka and Michiru because of the whole thing with the end when they killed Saturn and Pluto. Now I understand what they did, I didn't back when I first saw it, I think I was 11. Now I don't see how I ever didn't like them.[/spoiler]
