January 27th is Haruka Tennoh/Sailor Uranus’s Birthday!
So how can you celebrate?
♅ Rewatch or reread your favourite Uranus-centric chapter, episode, or musical! She and her girlfriend Michiru Kaioh/Sailor Neptune are key characters in the entire S season, and episode 106 shows the backstory of how they met. Episode 98 follows her getting stuck handcuffed to Sailor Moon and separated from the other Sailor Soldiers as they avoid the monsters of the week. Also, she does this.
♅ Sailor Uranus has two official image songs in the original anime, Kaze ni Naritai [”I Want to Become the Wind”] and Initial U. While Kaze ni Naritai was performed by her voice actress Megumi Ogata, Initial U was performed by vocalist Risa Ohki - though Megumi later released her own song Kaze ni Naru [“Become the Wind”] with a very similar melody to Initial U.
In the Sailor Moon musicals she shares a duet with Sailor Neptune, Choubi! Uranus to Neptune [”Super Beauties! Uranus and Neptune”], and also shares the Sailor Moon Crystal season 3 ending with her, Eternal Eternity.
♅ Enjoy Haruka’s favourite food, a refreshing salad! You can also abstain from her least favourite food, natto - fermented soy beans, a popular breakfast food (if you aren’t Haruka).
♅ Haruka’s hobbies are all about going as fast as possible to “feel like the wind”; you could participate by going for a run or watching/trying (dirt) bike/car racing. She loves virtual racing as much as the real thing, so bust out your copy of Mario Kart or head to the local arcade to blow some change on a moto title.
Haruka is also a talented pianist, so if you don’t dabble yourself, listen to a few classical pieces.
And you could always model for one of your artistic friends!
♅ Dress like Haruka for the day! Consistent elements are to follow the “rule of cool” with loose shirts over a form-fitting bottom half featuring leather-look materials, or keep a casual, sporty look with short/cut-off sleeves and lots of denim. She’s also partial to a two-piece suit, but dresses them down with a casual/unbuttoned undershirt and statement jewellery. She favoured all shades of blue, black, and a yellow/gold accent.
She also liked the “pair look” trend of matching her outfit with Michiru’s, so you could style your outfit with your partner, best friend, or cousin.
♅ Fav and read some Sailor Uranus fanart and fanfic on sites like Pixiv, Twitter, and AO3 - or contribute your own new content! Don’t forget to tag!
