Minako was very devoted to her mission and past life and almost gave up singing for her mission; however, Rei talked her out of living in the past and live in the present.

Sailor moon venus
"The Guardian of Love and Beauty, Sailor Venus! In the name of Venus, I'll punish you!"
— Sailor Venus's stock introduction


Minako Aino is the civilian identity of Sailor V and the present-day incarnation of Sailor Venus.

Appearance

Civilian

Like the other members of the Sailor Guardians, her appearance in PGSM differed greatly from her appearance in the original manga. In this version, Minako has brown eyes and straight black/brunette hair with fringe/bangs. She doesn't wear her signature red bow until she transforms into Sailor Venus.

Sailor Guardian

Sailor V in PGSM has the same appearance as the manga and anime version.

Venus obtains her original look, like Sailor V. Unlike in the anime, but like the manga, Sailor Venus has chains around her waist for her Venus Love-Me Chain attack. Like the other Sailor Guardians, her hair changes color when transforming (from brown to blonde).

Personality

Minako Aino is a popular teen idol and singer. She uses references to her life to title her songs. For example, her second album is titled "Venus" and her most popular song is "C'est la Vie" which is a pun on Sailor V.

Minako is a calm, quiet, and deeply solemn person who does not smile often. She is shown leading her double life as a pop singer and as a Sailor Guardian. She remains separate from the other four Sailor Guardians until she reveals herself and discards her Sailor V form for her true form, Sailor Venus. Even after this, she still distances herself from the other girls due to her frustration that they all lack focus, but mostly due to a terminal illness she harbors because she believes that if they become friends and she dies a probable death, they will become saddened by it, though later in series she confided with Rei and eventually became friends with the rest of the girls.

Information

Minako in the live-action series was an idol singer. She is strict and calm, as well as smart and observant, but she also has a good sense of humor. Unfortunately, she has a disease and thought about getting surgery, but said: "the possibilities are around zero". Rei talked her into giving it a shot, and the rest of the Sailor Guardians planned a surprise party for her. Unfortunately, Minako died during surgery. Artemis first told Rei and she was just at a loss for words.

During that same episode, there is a scene with her singing at the party in an afterlife. Minako read a letter to her friends about her life and how much her friends meant to her.
