Hey guys. I've been thinking about how to de-poison Minako somewhat and also leave her somewhat less of a hot mess for future applicants. It'd basically require temping Minako (which I'd be happy to do), and having her tentatively ask for a senshi meeting to talk to all of them, and pass the holy sword to someone (most likely Makoto) for safekeeping/for use in protecting Usagi, while she officially goes off with Artemis to figure out what's still wrong with her head and put herself and her perceptions back together.

I really feel like this is necessary, since she's been open so long and is -- despite having been a trainwreck pre-D-point and a nonentity afterwards -- still a vital part of the story, and could in fact play her way into being a vital part of the team /if she were played/... but she's not, and the longer she stays the unplayed elephant in the room, the harder it's going to be to justify her long unaddressed absence as a new player.

I want to talk to all you guys about this and get your input, and try to come to a good compromise or provide a good enough explanation if anyone has concerns about handling her this way-- I just don't want the character to continue to have this much of a disservice done her.

So definitely, please discuss! I'm opening a wiki talkpage for the discussion so the board doesn't get spammed. It's at http://www.mahoumush.com/Talk:Mamoru_Chiba/Minako :) To sign your name end your note with three tildes (~)

I think this is an awesome idea. Not sure how to go about it since I'm basically Newest Man On Cast and don't have some of the history to go with why Minako would be a poisoned well for a newbie.

Hilarious silly/please don't actually take this seriously idea: any of the Shitennou getting the Holy Sword even temporarily to pass along. I could see so much NOPE. --Alpine (talk) 22:32, 26 September 2016 (EDT)
