Dear Takeuchi-sensei,

Please, please can I become Sailor Venus and not Sailor Mercury?
Sailor Mercury has such weak attacks. I know she is the typical
Japanese, like me, but I still don't feel that I should be Sailor
Mercury. I couldn't even remember her stupid attacks!

My mama said that I shouldn't whine and complan so much, but I
don't think that I can be Sailor Mercury and do a good job.

My mama is the daughter of a general in the army and my papa is an
aid to one of the officials that you probably voted for. I am born to
be a leader!

Also, I wanted to ask why, "Shabon Spray" didn't work that well
compared to, "Shine Aqua Illusion." I don't know the next level of
attack, so the monster is freezing in the apartment building's supply
room right now. I managed to slide it into the elevator. I can't find
the volumes 12-18 for the later attacks. Please write back soon
because the building manager is getting suspicious with how I keep
sneaking off to the closet to transform and freeze him again.

Sincerely,
Kin Umino

Dear Takeuchi-sensei,

I forgot to write you about how I transformed for the first time!
The other letter hasn't gotten to you yet, but you said it was
important.

Monsters don't have sense of time, do they? My first monster
attacked me just before school. Well, he didn't really attack me,
perse, but he did attack a group of school children, kinda like the
one where the Cardian attacked the kindergarten kids. I couldn't
really stand to see them get stomped and so, I transformed. The
transformation wasn't so bad, but I couldn't get through the attacks
so well, because I couldn't remember her attacks!

I was getting beaten up pretty thoroughly when I finally
remembered, "Shabon Spray," but I wasn't sure if it would work. The
fog dissapated after a few seconds, but stayed long enough for me to
pull out my computer. I remembered that much about Sailor Mercury. I
was able to understand the majority of the statistics, but a few were
lost on me. I did a "Shine Aqua Illusion," but I couldn't remember the
other attack, so I had to slide it back home and put it into the
supply closet.

I was late to my first class, so I had to stand out in the hall
and hold some buckets until class was over.

I had to transform again and then I ran home during lunch,
claiming that I forgot it and a teacher caught me trying to get out of
the school.

The monster was almost melted by the time I got home. I had to
transform and freeze it again. I've been freezing it every few hours
now, and I don't know what to do. It's draining me. If I was Sailor
Venus, I could have used a "Love and Beauty Shock" and defeated the
ugly thing.

Please tell me what to do.

Sincerely,
Kin Umino

* Holding buckets outside of a classroom is a typical punishment for
those who come in late in Japan. Tardiness is not accepted, ironically
sleeping through class is.
