How Did Ikkaku (I can't spell Japanese names) react to Usagi's ascension?

I mean, she did basically think her daughter was lazy and lacked ambition. From that to saved the world and became queen of the planet and practically a goddess is a rather dramatic shift. Or was it "you queen? Why you no empress?"

She probably was quite surprised but not as much as Shingo. I'd really like to know if Usagi's fam continued their normal life or they decided to reside in the palace with her? I can't see Shingo not call in to tease his Big-Sis for fun about how terrible she is as Queen.

I know Ms. Haruna mouth would have dropped once she found out and is currently still on the floor.

I doubt Usagi’s family or any former civilians were allowed to enter the palace.

If memory doesn’t fail me, it is stated that Neo-Queen Serenity didn’t make public appearances and did not leave the palace?

Ikuko. You could have easily looked up the spelling.
These days you have a point as you can go to any wiki and browse until you find the name, but if you don't know how to spell it, you might not be able to find it. It doesn't help if you don't outright catch the names and mistyping a name might not get you what you want..

Many, many, years ago I was looking up the Japanese name of a character, but I forgot how to spell it. Instead of swallowing my pride and looking up the English dub equivalent, I typed in "Juuichi" instead. I had mangled the spelling so bad that Google didn't autocorrect what I had written.

I will never get those...images of that...bear...out of my mind.

But as to the original post, assuming Ikuko wasn't killed off, she was probably proud of her daughter. However, I could see where the two of them would have become slightly distant at that point, especially with the fact that becoming Neo-Queen Serenity, Usagi was choosing her past life to an extent over her present one.

I found it fascinating how when Haruka starts talking about the Silver Millennium she winces and doesn't want to talk about it.It still causes her so much pain. I sometimes think Sailor Moon isn't Usagi's secret identity, Usagi is Sailor Moon's secret identity.

It's really not hard.

You guys are being really rude to the OP, leave them alone. You guys are no better than Kero.

I really don't think they were being rude, not everyone knows off the back how to spell these Japanese names so sometimes a reminder that it can be looked up easily is posted and that's ok, took me a while to get used to the Japanese names after years of the Dub

it would be rude if the OP was teased about not knowing


anyways :

I would imagine she'd be shocked, weirded out but proud
Kenji her dad too of course

Shingo would be the most shocked and have the biggest reaction lol
