CODENAME: SAILOR V

Summary

Codename wa Sailor V tells the story of Minako Aino, a 13 year old middle school student, who is slightly distracted, out-spoken and dreams about some day finding true love. But soon, her calm and normal life changes when she encounters a talking white cat with a crescent moon on its forehead. This cat introduces himself as Artemis and claims that Minako is a girl with the power to transform into a woman stronger and more beautiful than anyone.

He calls her "Venus" and tells her she has a mission to protect Earth in the name of her guardian planet Venus. To help her with her new mission, Artemis gives her two items, a crescent moon shaped compact and a magical pen. The magical pen allows her to transform into her alter-ego, the sailor-suited beautiful soldier of justice, Sailor V.

Sailor V begins fighting the evil agents known as the Dark Agency, who fight under Danburite's command. He's in charge of sending his many talented idols to enslave the public.

Sailor V has many adventures as a Soldier of Justice, some leaving her to spark the envy and admiration of the police force. She also later gained the aid of Kaitou Ace, who had for a moment taken her spotlight due to his TV show.

At the end Minako realizes that her duty is more important than romance and discovers her true mission as Sailor Venus.
