Alternate Guardians for Sailor Scouts

Mmmyeah. Let's say at some point prior to the series, one or more of the Sailor Scout's usual guardians/parents/whatever are either killed, put in a coma, disabled in some other capacity, or wound up not wanting their child as a distraction, and they wind up being raised by a certain individual or individuals...be they a friend of the family, a wandering traveler that takes them in, some ambitious individual that has some inkling of what they are, or at least some of their potential, a distant relative, someone who just adopts them from an orphanage if no one else was willing to adopt them, something else along those lines. Or, alternatively, in the case of someone like Minako, the fact they're living on their own gets uncovered and/or they run into a friend of the family, or something else along the above lines.

So, name the Sailor Scout, who the guardian is, what convoluted and/or unlikely plot device wound up with them raising them, and why you'd want to see it.

Of course, a more serious approach is perfectly fine as well, and if you'd like to suggest something like (off the top of my head) Usagi's parents dying in a car crash, and Professor Tomoe winds up adopting her out of curiosity and/or some knowledge that there's something unusual about Usagi he wants to uncover, that's a perfectly valid suggestion. :huh.:

...on the other hand, if you'd like to suggest Rei being raised by Happosai, well, that's fine too. :snigger:

There are issues with this idea, as Usagi is about the only one in the group with a intact family active in their life. So nearly anyone would not be a simple replacement, but a completely new aspect in their life.

- Mercury - mother apparently very busy, as we never even see her in the storyline.

- Venus - left alone in the anime, never seen, very little known except they took her to England with them when younger.

- Moon - stern mother, overprotective but bumbling father, snotty brother.

- Mars - raised by Grandfather, parents not mentioned much

- Jupiter - in anime dub, they are alive but not seen, in anime sub/manga, they are dead

- Saturn - father killed in series, mother killed pre series start

- Neptune/Uranus - live on own, parents unknown, but apparently fairly rich

- Pluto - no known family

- Mamaru - parents killed pre series

...erm, that would rather be the point of this...for the characters to be adopted, taken in by, or otherwise raised by someone who would give them a rather different personality, outlook on life, skill set, etc. It would be rather dull if it was just 'ho, hum, back home, oh-and-by-the-by-instead-of-my-regular-parents-it's-Harry-Potter-which-makes-absolutely-no-difference-to-my-life-whatsoever'. Frankly, I would view adding a completely new aspect to their lives as being a bonus, not an issue. :mellow:

No... you misunderstood... I've no issue per se with the idea of them being raised by someone.

My point is it is not really a 'replacement' or 'alternate', since most of them have not really been raised at all, as instead they have pretty sad, neglected, crappy, or independant home lives with no such influence in the first place.

Usagi is somehow raised by Nougami Neuro.

Alterntively, for a more DOOM DEATH DEFEAT DESPAIR:

Setsuna Meiou is... shall we say, 'inspired'... by Johann Liebert. :snigger:

Ahhh... here is one you gave me GH.

Usagi raised by 'Club-to-Death Angel Dokuro-Chan

It would help her build the right character and mindset for the job. Be good for Mamu-chan as well.

I saw a fan fiction with a bloodthirsty Mercury once... it actually was quite good. This might be similar for Usagi.

See, the problem is that Dokuro-chan is a massively overreacting cross between the tsundere and the shy wallflower types. She will flip out and club people to death for even the slightest hint of what she perceives as perversion, only to revive them and apologize profusely immediately afterwards. And then she'll do it again. And again. And again.

If Dokuro raised Usagi, Mamoru would probably flee her in terror within the first 10 minutes of meeting her - and being killed by her multiple times.

Might get him to stop calling her meatball head and to actually take her serious.

Actually Minako's parents aren't shown because she has the exact same parents as Usagi in the original Sailor V manga. Ikuko, Kenji and Shingo (I forget if they were named in the manga) were originally her family. But they only appeared once before being transplanted to Usagi.

And Setsuna's dad is Chronos apparently they refer to her as Chronos' child several times.

Not quite right on the original parent stories:

Mercury - parents are divorced, mother is a workaholic physician who is rarely home (They mainly communicate through notes), father is an artist who doesn't live in the area anymore, they haven't communicated in any form other than letters since he left.

Mars - mother is dead, father is a politician who didn't have time for his dying wife, doesn't have time for his only child, and only sees her on her birthday.

Happy family and typical Senshi seem to be mutually exclusive concepts.

Ehhh... I was not really wrong, just brief... I did not want a paragraph plus on each. I should have mentioned Mars Mom being dead though. Oh well...

Yeah. Maybe he sees the purity of her soul and decides to completely corrupt her.

How's about this: The Senshi are raised by the Red vs Blue guys.

That's right; Church, Tucker, Caboose, Tex, Sarge, Simmons, Griff, Donut, Lopez and Doc have to all raise the girls.

Possible match-ups:

*Church gets Rei (Come on, both of them are pretty firey, pun intended, and both of them use a Sniper-type attack).

*Doc has Hotaru (Bonus points if somehow O'Malley tries to use Mistress 9 in his plans to take over the universe).

*Tex and Haruka is just about a given, if you think about it.

Michael O'Neal Sr (Legacy of the Aldenata)

He's already raised his granddaughter Cally (which should probably be spelt with a K) sufficently well that her picture is in many local shops captioned: WARNING! JAILBAIT! ARMED AND DANGEROUS!

Having him raise, say, Minako or Makoto would leave the Beryl and her minions squalling in terror for the rest of their lives. Not that they would be very long lives...

Have the whole lot of them trained by Gunnery Sgt. Hartman. :p
then they wont even need to transform to kill non major villains.



EDIT:

I Pick Batman for Usagi

in hopes of her not being as stupid as she was most of the time.
Who cares about killing, imagine their speeches with Hartman's influence!

Lets talk about Ami.

Sinstead fo a normal doctor, what if she was one for GIJoe...

Ami being trained and looked after by Sgt. Slaughter and the gang...

Ahhh... now if that would not give a changed personality...

Smartest Inner (by far), with knowledge of tactics, H2H combat training, and sniper and infultration techniques, a brutal personality, and backup.

I'd read it.

Usagi being raised by Ludwig would also probably be greatly amusing...with a father like him, she's probably guaranteed to be pretty messed up...though, if Ludwig's mother decided to take an interest in her, well...can you imagine Usagi, having imprinted off of her?

Hmm...other ideas that come to mind...

Ami winding up, somehow, being raised by House from House M.D.. Perhaps her mother knew him, somehow...went to an American college before returning to Japan to become a doctor...or perhaps she was originally from America already, her parents having immigrated to America, and decided to go to Japan?

Makoto, raised by M. Bison/Vega from Street Fighters...perhaps finding an orphan with some martial arts interest at a young age, and decides to train her to become a useful asset...or, perhaps, one of the prototypes for the Dolls, if you want something darker.

An accident involving time travel or dimensional travel winds up with Usagi being raised by Vash the Stampede from Trigun...I imagine he would probably try to ditch her at an orphanage, but if she was stubborn enough, she might manage to get him to accept her presence...not to mention, it probably wouldn't change her personality all that much in the long run...

Rei, being raised by Donavan Baine from Darkstalkers, either having her replace Anita, or be raised along with Anita, having some similar manifestation of her power or fear of her...needless to say, she would probably be proficient at defeating the powers of darkness....

Just for the crack aspects, Minako raised by Vash the Stampeed.

You'd need something really off the wall to get Vash to Earth of that timeframe, but twin blond terrors, fighting for LOVE AND PEACE (with a large sideorder of collateral damage :ph43r: ) is too much to pass up.

Edit: And I posted this before finishing the thread, seeing Luthorne put out Vash/Usagi. I still say Minako is better, Senshi of Love and with the closest to a 'shot' type attack.
