We appreciate your praise and all (and I really hate to be a bubble buster) but...I must remind you that this topic is for people.......... who for some strange reason dislike Amy. Don't think that I'm some boring, strict person because I'm not. ;D I'm just trying to keep everyone from straying to far away from the topic.

Allright peeps! I'm a honest person, so I'll just tell ya my opinion about Amy. I'm Virgo, like her and I love her blue hair. But I don't like that it's short! Don't you think it would be cooler if her hair would be a bit longer? For example, like Saturn or Neptune, Venus? I think she would be cooler with longer hair and she would be kewl if she wouldn't be so 'smartass'. Yeah I know, I'm the 'devil', and now you gotta 'deal' with me.

Hmmm...well Amy's short hair is also like her trademark because she is the only senshi with short hair so I think her hair stands out....kinda like Usagi or shall I say Serena's meatballs. Plus Amy's intelligents is her greatest strength. Why, because the other senshi count on her to analyise their most formitable opponents. And, I must add without Amy doing that the senshi probably would have been in a lot of trouble and they probably would be beaten easily.

But, Sailor Uranus has also short hair. Rest of Mercury is ok, she's really sweet and calm, wise, virgo like me. I just thought the hair could be a bit longer.. I like long hair, that's it.

I like Amy/Ami/Mercury's hair, it's sort of, cute, hehe On a personal preference I like long hair, on me, that is, hehe, but I think her hair style suits her quite well. I guess that's because I'm used to seeing her with short hair, so seeing it long would be sort of weird... Still... I like her the way she is, she doesn't need to change ;D (ok maybe studying less and having a bit more fun every now and again would be good, but she's still cool, and I wish I had a friend like her)

Sailor Kiss of Fire: Oh yeah, I forgot all about Sailor Uranus' short hair well, I think it's safe to say that she is the only inner senshi with short hair. Sailor Mercury: I agree that seeing Amy with long hair would be weird. ;D

I think Ami-chan is cute in the manga than the anime, they make her real-real nerdy and quiet in the anime, which makes her suck in the anime . I love Ami-chan, she's awesome, her Rhasody Mirage attack is cool

lmao she'd look real real weird with long hair.. ami-chan's character looks so real and right with her hair short -- and that's not a problem that she has short hair, too :]

Leave home for a few days...and look what happens Well so much to address...hmmm... Okay, on the subject of Amy's hair. As a general rule I perfere woman with long hair, sort of Mina or Raye style. Why? (shrugs) I don't know I just do. But with Amy...her hair style suits her personality quite well in a few ways. First of all its efficent: Its much quicker and easier to take care of then Raye's or Mina's. (And how long do you think it takes Sarena the set her hair up in the morning? ) Second its short: This seems to keep with her feeling for modesty. I might be reaching a bit here but I don't think Amy could pull off the long blue hair (Styled by Katsumi Lequor of Silent Mobius, good show ;D) that takes a certian... freedom of spirit that Amy lacks. For all extents and purposes Amy is still locked in her shell and a don't think she has the self confidence needed to "let her hair down" This style suits her, leave it alone. Hmmm...where to go next hmmm...well to address the point raised by Minakochan: I've never seen the manga, so I don't know what's she's like there. As for why she's very shy I did a 'Full blown' post on that topic in a different site. I'll reference that for you in a minute. SailorStar, thank you for holding the fort for me while I was gone. ~The hawk is perched, but only for a moment, soon he must fly again.~

Ladies and gentlemen welcome to day two of my mulit-day exposition on Amy.
First of all I would like to thank Azaargus and Michiru Kaioh for their comments on my behalf. Nothing better then reading fanmail.
Okay... enough stalling lets get to the main event. As promised we have before you today:
Amy: The Shy Scout
Now... where to start, this topic is so vast. Unlike the other one its tough to nail down in a bullet point sequence. Okay, how about this.
It is very easy to see that Amy is shy. Without a doubt, all the signs are there. She's easily embearessed and will fall to Sarena's pier pressure with ease. I'm not going to try to convince you she's not shy because... well she is. Its a part of her personality and it deserves a deeper explanation.
Amy is shy. But why? It would be easy to write this off to her extreme intellegence. (IQ of 300 if memory serves) Smart people are quite often ostrcised because they make other people around them feel stupid in comparison. Its not something they intend to do its just a consequence of intelegence. A good example would be how Sarena acts around Amy when their at study group. I can't count the number of times I've seen the Anime sweat drop for Sarena in thoes situations. Sarena however is the type of person who will just brush it off in a few minutes and so there will be no breach in their friendship. Around strangers however smart people are quite often seen as highly stuck up. (And don't get me wrong, some of them do become quite arrogent but they are the exception to the rule) However most of them just don't know how to relate to the people around them. Personaly though I believe that to simply write Amy's shyness off on her inteligence is lazy. As a true Amy fan I've dug a little deeper and for the first time on the net I shall share my findings. (I never even told the guys on SailorMoon.org this)
The first topic that comes up next is the fact that she is a new transfer student. As a person who has moved alot myself I can relate to the effect this has on a person. (Side comment for your amusment: When I lived in Tokyo for a year I lived at 4-8-4 Minami-Azabu. Amy lives in Minami Azabu. Unfortunitly I didn't learn this till much later. ) As someone who has moved eight times before I was sixteen two of which were to different contenents I can relate to the effect that has on a persons personality. I'm sorry to say that my middle brother has never recovered from the effects and has become loner. (On the flip side though I personaly believe that we get along better then any other set of brothers around, we had to, there was no one else) When you move into new surroundings it can be very dissorintating. arriving at a new school where you don't know anyone. Also adding fuel to the fire is the fact that she was immediatly ostrocised for her intelegence. I remember a certian sceen where Amy has just arrived and is looking out of a window. I can't remember exactly what Sarena said but it certinly wasn't nice and Amy overheard her. Things like that can cut into a new kids feelings likes the sharpest of knifes. They can take a shy kid and turn them into a recluse. Amy, thankfully was stronger then that and just but it behind and beneath her.
The next one that comes up is one that not many people pay attention to but Amy's parents are divorced. (Or at least seperated) Her dad's an artist and her latent musical talents most likly are off shoots of this artistic talent. Otherwise she follows behind her mother in most areas. From what I've seen (Might be wrong on this) Amy's mother isn't around much. She apears to have raised herself. I don't personaly have experience with this but I have a friend who I personaly believe needs the help of a good phyciatrist. I'm one of the only friends he has and even I don't understand him. His relationships with his parents are highly distorted, he hates his mom. Dosn't hate or like his dad perticualarly even though he lives with him. He has an older brother who lives out in California who he either hates or likes. (Depending on the day) Seeing what his parents brakeup have done to him has made me look at Amy in a whole new light. This is quite possibly the biggest reason for her shyness.
Take each of these situations on their own and you have the potential for a very lonley kid. Slam them togather and its amazing that Amy has survived at all. Let's just say I don't think I could have. Amy has a strengh, an inner strengh that no one seems to have ever noticed before. Her ability to keep pushing toward her goals and dreams when it would be much easier to 'slip into dementa' (to quote a friend ) is nothing short of astounding.
I hope these posts make you continue to look at Amy in a new light. Never settle for the lazy impression of a person. Never catagorize because the moment you do you miss half of their inner beauty.
Tune in tomarrow for the conclusion: Amy: Sailor Mercury (You wont want to miss this one Amy lovers!)
~No prey in sight. But plenty of water. This place is good, and the land is rich. I will prosper here.
