Odd topic but I really want to talk about it and your opinions of it ect. So...
Which would you have preferred to commit to, the life like on the Moon Kingdom, or being literally re-incarnated as someone who now constantly has to protect the world.
I think both would have their flaws... I want to talk about both worlds, both aspects, but seeing as how I am a horrible topic starter, I call upon hawk!

The royal treatment including the responsabilitys and privlages contained there in, or the super hero gig? I'd go with the superhero gig. You are still responsible for the lives of alot of people, but I'd feel like I was accomplishing more by protecting them. Manners and ettiquite are also not mandatory with being a superhero.

I would always take the Super hero alias over the dictator road. As long as i don't have to wear a Fuku. ;D or roses for that matter..
Besides if the Moon Kingdom was such a great place why did they need a King and Queen?

Just as the world needs laws, rules and government officials. Laws and rules I understand... But I wouldn't want some strange white haired women with long pig tails deciding if I should be reborn or not.. I think the moon kingdom failed becouse they relyd too much on their precious "Queen" to save them... and besides anyone who ends up throwing roses as his main assualt weapon cant be to excellent of a war time strategist. No wonder the Nega verse almost took the place over.

Had you been into the moon kingdom you probably would have loved the queen. she was supposed to have been a wise and beneficial leader. and besides anyone who ends up throwing roses as his main assualt weapon cant be to excellent of a war time strategist. No wonder the Nega verse almost took the place over. Throwing roses was not his primary attack in the manga, he had an attack called Tuxedo La Smoking Bomber. And what do enhanced abilities have to do with strategic prowess?

Okay I'll take this one step at a time.
No, I only say that because of the fact that when it comes down to it, I Don't think I would want ONE single person deciding the fate of my entire world. Wise and Beneficial is in the eye of the beholder my freind. History has shown what may work for one person will not work for the other.
Government is government.. It will be around till the end of time, I have a love/hate relationship with it as im sure most people do. It is a black thorn that is in a sense necessary for a large group of people to survive.
Drop the word enhanced.. Abilities have a lot to do with your strategy! Ablilties determine your skills in everything.. Like for instance One of Ami's ablilties is obviously her brains, as Makoto is being athletic. As with the case of Tux. Besides have you ever really seen Tux actuallay defeat a youma? I think not.. He always relies on otthers.. That dosent help his depend ablilty in combat.
And what's this other Attack you speak of?

I'm not droping the word enhanced because the ability in question is his rose throwing power which allows him to embed into solid concrete the roses in question. And the spontaneous creation of such roses. What does having or not having this ability have anything to do with military inteligence? Nothing. And what's this other Attack you speak of? Its an attack that is only in the manga. They watered down the tuxedo Mask character when converting Naoko Takeuchi's Manga into Toei Animation's Anime. He used to have an attack called Tuxedo La Smoking Bomber. eternalsailormoon.org/manga/tuxedo/lasmoking.jpgAnd yes, using the rose throwing ability in the anime I saw him defeat an enemy. It was even an anime only character. He beat Fiore. Broke his spirit and everything. And another thing that people forget about him is that he boisters the spirit of Sailor Moon. it might not seem like much but it is an invaluable feat that he preforms. as when Sailor Moon's spirit is broken she cannot retain the Sailor Moon transformation and would thus be useless. He might not defeat the enemies himself. (Something that for the most part the title character does the most of if not all of.) but without him, Sailor Moon would have been defeated early on.

Okay, maybe you have me enhanced abilities department however.... Friend, your link doesn't work. It's hard for me to take this bomb thing seriously. I have never heard of thing before although, I will be the first to tell you im relatively new to the series. And another thing that people forget about him is that he boisters the spirit of Sailor Moon. it might not seem like much but it is an invaluable feat that he preforms. as when Sailor Moon's spirit is broken she cannot retain the Sailor Moon transformation and would thus be useless. He might not defeat the enemies himself. (Something that for the most part the title character does the most of if not all of.) but without him, Sailor Moon would have been defeated early on. What, that's like saying one of his chief abilities is being Moon's cheerleader. I'm sorry but I really think that's pushing it. First of all maybe, he helped her out a few times but as the series went further and further, the Senshi began to get stronger and stronger. As this develops Tux's use lessened and lessened. You can't throw that cheerleader thing out there past season one because Usagi started to change and mature. She didn't depend on him anymore (if at all). She didn't need his powers that was for damn sure. So what's his use past season one? Next thing you'll be saying is his long speechs as one of his abilites.

Next thing you'll be saying is his long speechs as one of his abilites. His usefulness in that respect lasted for three seasons. He did last up though the doom tree series after all. but even if he became less vital he was still vitally important. without him Sailor Moon would probably have been wiped out early on. so no matter how useless he is in the much later seasons. With out him. . .

Yup Yup Yup Tuxedo has "Tuxedo the Smoking Bomber" in the manga. (Appears in the Black Moon Arc)
Takeuchi stated that she likes strong women protecting men once in a while, that's whe she makes Sailor Moon just "stronger" than Tuxedo. She has magical powers and he has weaker magical powers...
u noe whu i mean rite??? XD...

I'd go with the Superhero thing. I htink being a superhero gives you a good responsibility and I think a good person is someone with responsibility... whcih, let me assure you, is absolutley NOT me!

I'd enjoy the super hero gig. fight evil, have great power, and as Ben Parker said before he died in the first Spider-Man movie: "with great power, comes great responsibility". and it'd be nice to meet other super heroes. ^_^

Hmmz, both seem attractive to me. I'd go for a superhero though. I'd like to get into tough battles 'n get my butt kicked by evildoers 'n stuff I'd be like the laziest superhero around ^^;;

well, look at Mr. Incredible, he was out of practice in 15 years, and he got back in the swing of things in a short time. you probably saw how that movie ended. if you got the power, you gotta take responsibility. Spider-Man wouldnt be Spiderman had he not learned that the hard way, and Superman wouldnt be who he is today if he was lazy! Sailor Moon takes some pushing from everyonelse to get going, but it's because she's used to being lazy, but she got into being a hard working kinda hero. Peace dont come easy, and if you got powers, use em! for the greater good of the world! cuz sure as hell, if I had powers, I'd use em for fighting crime, meeting girls, and bending the United States government to the true freedom it once had! it sounds like a john kerry, but it'd be worth it to give children a taste of TRUE freedom! instead of this oppression disguised as freedom. major digress... sorry. besides, why start off ruling when you can work for it, in a dark example, the justice lords(I'd love to drag someone out of their car and pummel the piss out of them for talking on their cell phone while driving), or work to total peace like the senshi did with crystal tokyo. ^_^ either way, I think I'd be taking the darker road.
