Yoshiki Kurebayashi is a botanist who only appeared in episode 116 of the anime.

Nomenclature & Etymology[]

Etymology[]

The kanji in his family name means "twilight (暮, Kure) and "forest" (林, Hayashi).

Appearance[]

Kurebayashi was a man with dark brown hair and tanned skin who wore glasses. His outfit consisted of a yellow plaid shirt with a green vest, blue pants with a belt, and black boots, as well as a straw sunhat.

Information[]

Mamoru took Usagi, Hotaru, Chibiusa, and Luna to his upperclassman's botany garden while they were on a picnic for lunch. He was also Mimete's target for his Pure Heart Crystal, although she was reluctant to target him.

He is later shown accompanying Mamoru, Usagi, Chibiusa, and Hotaru on their picnic and having fun with them. In the greenhouse, he doesn't notice that Hotaru seems to be upset with the fact that he "improves" roses.

Mimete prepares to attack, but has a moral conflict; she wants to target Mamoru, but is reminded of her assignment being to target Yoshiki and has another crisis of loyalty. However, she ultimately decides to target Yoshiki for the sake of her mission.

When hail broke parts of the ceiling in the greenhouse and he went to fix them, Hotaru helped him and realized that he simply wanted to help the more illness-prone roses survive.

Mimete threw an axe at the ladder, causing Kurebayashi and Hotaru to fall. She then unleashed the Daimon, U-Baulla, which attacked him and removed his Pure Heart Crystal. After Sailor Moon defeated U-Baulla with Rainbow Moon Heartache, Kurebayashi's crystal was returned to him.
