Description

Ami Mizuno es una muchacha que asiste a la misma escuela que la protagonista de la serie, Usagi Tsukino. Usagi, quien ya había empezado a adoptar la identidad alterna como la guerrera Sailor Moon, descubre que Ami tiene el poder de transformarse en otra guerrera justiciera, Sailor Mercury. Eventualmente se descubre que la razón por la que Ami puede transformarse de esta forma es porque ella es en realidad la reencarnación de Sailor Mercury, una guerrera del tipo Sailor Senshi que provenía del planeta Mercurio y protegía a la princesa de un reino llamado el Milenio de Plata en su vida pasada. Cada vez que se transforma en esta guerrera, Ami adquiere poderes sobrenaturales para combatir el mal. A partir de este descubrimiento, Ami se une al grupo de Usagi y sus amigas, adoptando el nombre y apariencia de Sailor Mercury cada vez que se enfrentan a un nuevo enemigo.

Tanto en el manga como en el animé, junto a Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Mars y Sailor Venus, Sailor Mercury se sacrifica para proteger a Sailor Moon y ayudarla a vencer a un poderoso enemigo, la Reina Metalia o Negafuerza. Ella muestra entonces una entrega y un coraje que no se evidenciaba en su vida anterior a ser una Sailor Senshi. Una vez que Metalia es derrotada, Sailor Mercury y las otras tres son resucitadas por el poder del Cristal de Plata de Sailor Moon. Después de eso, ayudan a Sailor Moon a vencer consecutivamente a otros enemigos, entre ellos el grupo Black Moon, las Brujas 5, la reina Neherenia y Sailor Galaxia.

La principal característica de la personalidad de Ami es su gran inteligencia. Su inclinación hacia el análisis y las ciencias exactas hacen que Ami siempre analice las situaciones y sea la Sailor Senshi que planea las estrategias para derrotar a los distintos enemigos que se enfrentan. En el primer episodio cuando aparece se le describe como la estudiante nº 1 de todo Japón, con un coeficiente intelectual superior a 300. Es muy sentimental y muy absorbida por los deberes escolares. Sin embargo, a medida que avanzan los capítulos del anime, su ánimo va variando a medida que siguen los combates para mantener la paz.

También son características de su personalidad su timidez, cosa que le dificultó desde siempre relacionarse con el resto de sus contemporáneos, aparte de su ensimismamiento dentro del estudio. Como su madre es doctora, ella también aspira a esa meta, y por eso da lo mejor de sí para estudiar y mejorarse aún más en el ámbito de los conocimientos. Sus materias favoritas son las matemáticas y las ciencias. De allí viene una especial admiración a la figura de Albert Einstein, ya que desea ser como él de brillante.

En su tiempo libre se dedica a la natación y jugar ajedrez, siendo muy buena en ambos deportes, además de escuchar música y declararse admiradora del grupo Three Lights, en especial de su tecladista Taiki Kou.



Throughout the series, much of Ami's free time is spent studying. She loves to read, and dreams aloud of one day being a doctor like her mother and becomes one in both Parallel Sailor Moon and the live action series. In the musicals, Ami's dream of being a doctor and leaving Japan to study abroad is a recurring theme. The first part of the song Dream Yume wa Ookiku (ドリーム 夢は大きく, lit. Dream - Dreams are Huge?) shows Ami's conflict between studying abroad and growing up or being with everyone else and staying a young girl. She faces a similar dilemma in the anime, but very directly; given the opportunity to study in Germany, she gets as far as the airport before deciding to stay in Japan and fight evil alongside her friends.

Ami has great appreciation for art as well as science, and, contrary to the usual depiction of a bookworm, even enjoys pop culture and romance novels (though she is usually embarrassed to admit it). In both the anime and the manga, Ami's diligence in her studies becomes a running gag; she often comically scolds Usagi and the others for not doing their homework, and she can become obsessive about being the best student. Her character has been interpreted as a political commentary on the education system of Japan. She sometimes displays attraction to boys her age, and other times aversion to the idea. Love letters are listed as the one thing she has most trouble with, and when she later receives one, it gives her a rash. In the anime, a classmate named Ryo Urawa learns her identity and expresses attraction to her, but this is never resolved, as he disappears after just two appearances in the first series.

Besides reading, Ami is shown playing chess and swimming in order to relax. As the team scholar, computers are listed her strong point; she even belongs to the club at school. She loves all her classes, especially mathematics. Her favorite foods are given as sandwiches and anmitsu, with her least favorite being yellowtail. Other loves include cats and the color aquamarine.

Ami is one of the few girls in the series whose family situation is explicitly mentioned in the anime. Her parents are divorced, and she lives with her mother, a busy doctor who is not home very often, named Saeko in the live-action series. They look very similar, and Ami admires her mother and longs to live up to her example. Besides her workaholic tendencies, Ms. Mizuno is portrayed as a good person who openly resents not having more time to spend with her daughter. Ami's father is never named, but is stated in the manga and anime to be a painter. The manga says that he never visits them, having decided one day not to come home from the forest where he was relaxing and painting, but he sends her postcards on her birthday. Thinking about this, Ami sometimes resents her parents' selfishness in separating, partly because divorce in Japan is taboo. However, in the anime Ami seems to appreciate her father and seems to share some of his artistic traits, at one point even composing matching lyrics for a tune that had none. In the manga, Ami's mother is revealed to be fairly rich, as they live in a condominium. Ami is shown testing the strength of a sword that the Sailor Senshi received on the moon by using it to chip a diamond ring. (Classically, a diamond is the hardest mineral.) When the girls panic, she calms them by saying that her mother has many more.

In the live-action series, Ami is especially shy and usually wears glasses while in public, even though she does not need them. At her middle school, she has no friends before meeting Usagi and always eats lunch alone on the roof so she can study. Usagi seems to be the only one to realize that Ami is merely shy, not truly standoffish, and in befriending her gradually helps Ami to learn that she is more than just a bookworm. By Act 34, when Ami's mother attempts to transfer her to another school because she thinks Ami's friends are bad influences, Ami rebels, avoiding the admission interview and spending the night at the Senshi hideout with Rei Hino. Later she tells her mother that what she's doing in her life right now is more important than studying, and her mother understands.

Ami was a kind and gentle person who disliked quarrels and abhorred harming innocent people. This trait was even cited in the title of an anime episode, "Believe in Love! Ami, a Kind Hearted Senshi," where she persuaded Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune not to kill Hotaru. Like her comrades, her loyalty to Sailor Moon was unwavering, and she would sacrifice her life for her princess if necessary.
