Ok..this topic sounds kinda lame.. I don't really like him really much as an overall character in the anime. So, I thought I'd break it down in bits and see what the results are...what do you think? This topic can be based on his character, feel free to throw in your thoughts about his character..anime, manga, Live Action..musical(? lol)

Wow... He sure does have a lot of identies...
I choose Prince Endymion, but EVIL Endymion only. The arc (anime) where he is turned evil by Beryl is really the only time I can stand him, he is mindless and just random attacks. Pretty much his only purpose in the show.
Moonlight Knite was a stupid idea... I really think that was a werid story... I never truly understood it, MLK was like... is soul of Tuxedo Kamen lost after Usagi wished everything to normal?
King Endymion's role was really to small to get a grip on it. I did like how he guided the senshi around in a little bit of R. Purple... not his color...
Kid Mamoru... What can I say? He feel in love with a little green boy...
Normal Tuxedo Kamen/Mamoru really makes me made... he is pointless to the series. In the manga he at least did something rather then throw roses and introduce himself...
So yes, Prince Endymion is my choice.

erhm.. I voted for Tuxedo Kamen..but I dont really like him!!! lol... (referring anime) A few years back I rewatched the beginning eps of Sailormoon, and he did appear really cool-like XD But then the repetition in his appearances.. erm... >.> I find Mamoru an overall uninteresting character, and not that handsome as others tend to describe him Anyhows, I'd think TuxedoKamen is better than Mamoru.. But of course, if it was Live Action~ We love Mamoru...lol... So much better looking, and his personality was interesting to watch MoonLight Knight.. .. he was weird....lol.... But I liked him in the episode of the final battle against Al and En. ^^;; I pretty much never even thought about King Endymion >.> I agree, Purple doesnt look good on him.. (did he dye his hair?) lol

Maybe purple hair to them is like grey hair to us. He can't get greys so it just truns purple... or he was trying to dye it back black but since you can't dye grey hair with funky colors, it turned purple. OR! Chibiusa dropped a cup of grape juice on his head and it stained, so he wears the purple suit to match. OR DIGILEE IS CRAZY

I didn't like the future senshi..with the lipstick and all (Pluto looks neat though ) The King and Queen appeared too fake, or rather old (and mature) so I didn't find them very interesting. There characters appeared really dead.. Yeh, I would think purple was equivalent to grey. Uhm..didn't like King Endymion much. It just didn't appear that the future characters really cared about Chibiusa and was rather distant. Btw, do you guys like his speeches?

hahah... he's like Sailormoon; tries to find some fancy stuff to say at every intro ^_^ But I guess its appropriate XD...
Esp in the beginning series, it becomes too predictable when a rose is gonna fly in, and rescue the senshi ^^;;

hmm.. I'd suspect he was watching the whole time, and then at the point in time the senshi needs help, he'll appear to save them (much like Uranus and Neptune not wanting to intervene unless needed) This is more particularly for the beginning season I would believe.. since he doesnt really know the senshi.. but on the other hand~ at the beginning, he only changed to TuxedoKamen because he sensed Sailormoon was in danger..so maybe it was just coincidental.
Then again, if he was their ally, why wouldnt he just fight along side them, instead of watch on the side until they need his help (referring to latter seaons)? XD Im going...in circles o.o I cant believe Im analysisng Tuxedokamen!!

I liked when Mamoru realised he was Tuxedo Kamen in R season. I thought that was cool lol. The whole idea about him realizing his real identity and wanting to find out who he was was interesting to watch because I like the whole destiny sorta thing. He felt he needed to protect her but didnt know why. I like the Live series of Mamoru better though because he and Usagi seemed to fall in love with each other through their normal identity rather than falling in love with each other (in anime) after they regained their past memories =) You know how in the first season, Mamoru would turn into Tuxedokamen when he sensed Sailormoon was danger ? maybe thats what the Moonlight Knight is ~? An unconscious being in a way? Maybe in the latter seasons he just comes in the nick of time lol We never just see him suddenly appear though, he has to throw his rose first lol There arent many scenes with Mamoru being with the Senshi at the time they notice a villain I dont think..at least he never transforms with them lol Maybe thats what they were trying to avoid?XD

It was brought up that he seems random/kinda appears. I'm guessing thats why he got killed off so early in Stars (err not killed off, but star seed taken... but yeah I guess that did kill him). They must have ran out of ideas, but him fighting Galaxia on the plane was pretty cool and kinda the only time we see him fighting alone with out Sailor Moon or any of the other senshi.
I really do think they tried to get him more interesting, there is a great scene in S when Uranus, Neptune and Pluto confront him (one of my favorites of the season). But just overall he didn't work out... Though the R movie was a great look into his past. But then if you think about S and SuperS he dosn't do much. I mean he is in bed for the majority of the SuperS movie and I don't even remember him doing anything in the S movie besides dressing as Santa.
