I'm sorry to say that Ami severely lacks strong leadership qualities. Other than using her brilliant brain, and her defensive abilities, what can she do? ... Gah! I'm supposed to stand up for her!!! You acknowledge her weaknesses, so you truly understand her character more than a person who shows they don't know about the character by proclaiming that she can do things she can't really do.

Well if ANYONE of them had too, they COULD be leader, it's not a question of ability for me. It's just that I don't know, having Usagi leader is actually rather interesting because no one would see her like that which actually gives some kids something to look up to in a way. (Sorry this is extremely hard to explain). I guess it just gives her something to do. So Sailor Moon SHOULD, but anyone of them COULD (that is of course if they had too).

I think MERCURY ;D ;D ;D One - she's my favourite, Two - She's got really cool attacks , Three - she's the smartest of them all, so she could think of a strategy to get them out of danger and WIN!!

As well I think you have to look at what time line we are talking about. At the end of the anime I think all of the Sailors had matured enough to the point that anyone could be responsible for the team. Also when I think of the Sailor Leader I don't think about my favorite but which is most qualified. None of you have mentioned the fact that Sailor moon is THE strongest senshi. She is the most powerful senshi in our sailor system. Saturn aside, Moon could take out all of them, If she had the will. If I had to pick one other then Moon I'd say Pluto. Her experience alone makes Venus's exp look like Chibi-Usas.

I think that's a pretty important quality of being the leader. Sailor Moon is the strongest of all Senshi, but she doesn't have any leadership qualities whatsoever. She's clumsy and a crybaby (what kinda leader is that?). But her bright moments clearly show that she's not one to underestimate. She's been running in panick from attacking youma from day one, yet she beats the Beryl-Metalia hybrid. She doesn't have any kind of motivation to fight, her priorities are wrong, but in the end, she does do the trick.

And when her friends are threatened, she's definitely up to the task...

Perhaps not... I think Venus would probably make a better leader given her experience... Mars seems a bit too hot headed sometimes... Mercury doesn't have the outspoken nature to command the others, and Jupiter doesn't think before she acts... However Venus can be flakey sometimes... Sailor Moon has a bit of all of those personality traits (but is more outspoken than Mercury)... She's flakey, doesn't always think about things, can get angry (although not as angry as Mars) and the others don't always listen to what she has to say... I was going somewhere with this but I've lost it, LOL! But yeah... there you go...

Venus would Be Great as A Leader She does have the experience....though he does get alittle dim like Serena She is A Great person, and like we ALmost All agree on Mars is 2 hot Headed to do the job, Mercury doesn't have the outspoken abilit and Jupiter acts before she thinks. and Well Serena's ok as A Leader but She does have all the scouts bad traits, but Venus has the best quailties for A Leader...
EDIt: after reading your posts, yes yes Sailor Moon Has he Power but not the will nor the experience really to use it, he only reason she gets through it in the end if the help of her friends. and the ohter reason for the beating beryl, is because her crystal activated and gave her the qualities her past life had, which was all good, SO if she was like her past self She was would be a great leader but she isn't, though as she matures and grows out of being a Scout she gets better in her bad areas.

They work better as a team, they don't really need a "leader", but I spose said "leader" would be the one that held everyone together...

As is seen in promise of the rose, when fiore is ranting about her having taken Tuxedo mask. . the others remember times when she put forth effort to be friends with them, and times when they were all alone. . .

Thats only in your perspective, in which you perceive what she can or cannot. But yeah now that I think about it, by the end, all of them are capable of handling it. I just think Sailor Mercury is more capable though.
