| I like characters like Naru because they make the series not just about the senshi, but about regular people too. |

| It certainly would've been enjoyable to keep up the tradition of Naru being either a target or within proximity of the target. |

| The last time we saw Naru, at least in the 90s anime canon, was a SuperS episode, that to me was extremely lackluster. I feel as though her presence just became tedious. Naoko didn't intend for Naru to be a Senshi or anything more, so she probably just faded away. To be honest you can only do so much with a more 'generic' friend character.
To be completely honest, I felt that she was just a placeholder so it wasn't the Usagi show until the other Soldiers showed up.
Edit: Just remembered she was only in Act 1 of the manga, so it's safe to say she wasn't meant to go on for a long time, but was more a way to extend/filler the episodes and storyline. |

| Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. But my ideas regarding ways to develop the character may be a little... unusual. Eheheh. I do agree that her and Umino's last appearance was one of their weakest, but I don't think that's because the well ran dry, I think that's because that whole era (the Amazon Trio arc) was full of uninteresting episodes, kind of the worst part of the series (even though I love the series and there were a few good moments in that arc, it was still unusually low quality). I also think that characters such as Motoki, Yuuichirou, Ryo Urawa, and Rei's Grandpa might've been nice to see one more time. I think SuperS and Stars both shouldn't have had so many one-off "rando" characters for monsters of the week to attack, and should have instead plugged in these familiar faces and maybe done them a little more justice. (Yuuichirou got a pretty pathetic final outing, too, while Ryo Urawa got completely forgotten after season 1 for no good reason.) Also, Naru was in stars! Sort of. Almost. Not really?: |
