Mina is the recarnation of the Princess of Venus, and transforms into the Dynamic Fighter, Sailor Venus. Before Mina joined the Sailor Scouts (in the Japanese version), she fought crime in England as Sailor V. After her heart was broken by a friend, Mina returned to Japan where her Guardian cat, Artemis, brought her to meet Luna and the four other Scouts. Mina attends grade eight at the private Grass Valley Junior High (Shibakouen in Japan) and is fluent in the English language. Mina is arguably the most friendly and likable of the five Scouts, and cares deeply about her family, her friends, and small children. She also enjoys shooping, volleyball, romantic action movies, and just being mischievous. Mina is an only child and lives with her mother and father in the city.
