Sera Myu 30 Day Meme
Day Thirteen- If you were the director, tell me one thing you would have done differently

This is one of the easier days, I think. That might be because I didn’t want my answer to have anything to do with story lines or anything big, though.
If I were the director, I’d put in more small moments for Makoto and Usagi’s friendship. For all of the other inner senshi’s relationship with Usagi, I feel like the musicals eventually got it down (Ami they did great with from the start, of course, and Rei soon after, and the later stages did Minako brilliantly), but I never got quite the right vibe for Mako and Usagi. They did the mutually-boycrazy bits just fine, but they’re more than that. I’d want to put in more little moments where Mako is sympathetic and gentle towards Usagi (I’d definitely take out the times when Mako is harsh to Usagi; seeing her yell and hit her just makes me so sad the few times it happens), and put in more moments where Mako is protective of Usagi in and out of battle.
…Basically, I’d put in a Mako/Usagi hug every few shows. Or at least an occasional pat on the head.

I totally agree with this! As for pats on the head, does Kanako!Mako hitting Anza!Usagi on the head in Ai no Senshi e no Michi count?

I always felt like Kanako was the only Jupiter who had these little moments, which is why she’s my favourite. ^.^

Wow that’s adorable and so perfectly Mako. Clearly it’s been too long since I watched this show.
