1) Something this character is truly proud of.
I think it would be a long time before Michiru gets to a place where she can feel completely, unambiguously proud of anything she’s done. As a child she realized that her parents valued her work more than they valued her as a person, so any pride she might have in art or music got squashed out of her pretty quickly. And I think senshi work is very tied up in guilt and self-loathing for her, so she can’t feel pride in that.
But one day, when she and Haruka have been married a little while and have started having kids, she looks at her family and realizes that there is one thing she’s proud to be a part of. And after that, she realizes she’s proud of herself for being happy, because that never felt like somewhere her life could go, and here she is.
