What follows are the profiles and interviews of the five main seiyuu (voice actors) of the Bishoujo Senshi Sailormoon anime. Everything was translated directly from the five official fanbooks. (these interviews were not included in the English translation of the fanbooks) Mitsuishi Kotono -- the voice of Sailormoon Born December 8 in Tokyo. The main anime that she acts in are; in Idol Boueitai Hummingbird as Toreishi Satsuki, in Blue Seed as Sawaguchi Koume, and in Garou Densetsu as Shiranui Mai. She works for ArtsVision.    The first time I had ever met Usagi, was when I got an illustration of her from Takeuchi-sensei at the auditon for the show. The illustration that Takeuchi-san gave me was very cute, so I was happy to get the role of Usagi. Sailormoon has many great stories. What gave me the best impression was Sailormoon S episode 125, where Professor Tomoe remembers the memories of Hotaru, and the scene where Sailormoon transforms to save Hotaru. Tears came falling out of my eyes eventhough I was acting it out.    Finally, for the people who are reading this book, I will leave a last message. Although Usagi is very clumsy, she is a straight thinking girl. Everybody should be just like Usagi. Like her, a lot of you don't like studying/working. But make a lot of friends, eat everything even if you don't like it, and try to be a healthy girl. If you do, someday you will become a beautiful lady. Hisakawa Aya -- the voice of Sailormercury Born November 12 in Osaka. the main anime that she acts in are; in Mahoutsukai Sally as Kazugano Sumire, in Mamono Hunter Youko as Youko, in Ah Megamisama as Skuld, and in Aozora Shoujotai as Haneda Miyuki. She works for Aoni Production.    The very first character setting that I recieved was of a nice, very calm, and smart girl. That was all that was told. At first I never thought that this character, Ami-chan, would be raised so well. Of course, at first, I acted out along with the character, but now it feels as if the character is coming more towards the way I am. Ami-chan's silly jokes are probably increasing because of my influence *laugh*. Now, without having the after-recording once a week, it really is very lonely. Not only me, but to everybody else it's a life project. I feel that I would like to grow up along with Ami-chan. It makes me happy to think that you think it's fun to watch her grow up. Tomizawa Michie -- the voice of Sailormars Born October 20 in Nagano. An anime that she acts in is Crayon Shinchan as Matsusaka-sensei. She really acts in Choriki Sentai Orenja in episode 5 as Hinosensei. She works for Aoni Production.    The first time I got the part as Rei, I thought "I get to act something this good!" I have always thought that mysterious females were a role model to me. Rei is a miko (a female Shinto priestess), she has long hair, and is pretty. Four years have gone by, and the most influential episode is the last episode from the first series. I started to cry while I was acting it out. A creation that has a lot of effort put into it, has such a strong climax.    Now here is a message to those that are Sailormars fans. Everybody please take care of right now. Make a lot of friends and be friendly. Have fun and study hard. I want you to do the things that you can do right now, as much as possible. Eventhough the Sailorteam have fights a lot, they still cheer each other up and encourage each other. So for you people too, no matter what happens, try to do your best. Shinohara Emi -- the voice of Sailorjupiter Born August 8 in Nagano. The main anime she acts in are; Project A-ko as Daitokuji B-ko, in Jiindaiba as Selafii, and in Magic Knight Rayearth as Pureshia. She works for 81 Produce.    My first impression when I saw the picture [of Makoto] was that she was a charming girl. Before, I usually acted as an enemy, or an older sister type of character in anime. So when I got this part I was very happy. Yet, it was kind of wierd. When I act out a character, I try to find a similarity and then try to get closer to the character. To tell the truth, there were so many parts that I was able to understand about the character [Makoto], and it made me feel like there was fate between us. Also, at times when the character gives a strong voice and at times a cute voice, The reality in this character made me believe that it was a review of acting. Now I feel that I cannot be away from her anymore. Please support me so I can continue to act as Makoto. Fukami Rika -- the voice of Sailorvenus Born August 8 in Saitama. The main anime acting she has done are; in Macross Plus as Myun Fuan Lon and in Genki Bakuhatsu Gambaruga as Takeda Katsura.    Until now, I usually acted as an adult woman for dubbing foreign movies. So acting as a mid-teen girl, Minako, was something I haven't really done before. When I acted as Minako-chan, I noticed there was a part of me that actually was like Minako-chan. Just like Minako-chan, I am also obsessed with famous people. Now, I think that Minako and I are effecting each other's personalities.    Finally, here is a last message to everyone. Please hold on to your dreams as long as possible. Minako-chan, Usagi, and everyone else have dreams. When you are going towards your dream, if you are discouraged please think of us. Dreams will someday become true. But if you don't carry your dream, it won't become a reality. Everyone, please go for your dream.
