Sailor Kakyuu
|
Sailor Kakyuu is Princess Kinmoku,
|
There is no “Princess Kinmoku” in the anime and manga continuities.
Why on Earth does the author call the character “Sailor Kakyuu” in one area, and then “Sailor Kinmoku” in another area? Would that not confuse newbies?
In the anime and manga, the princess is usually  (Princess Kaky ).
|
first order Imperial Princess of the Red Ceres Kingdom of the Planet Kinmoku.
|
“Ceres Kingdom” is a misnomer. Alex Glover wrote “Red Cercis Kingdom,” which is also incorrect. Princess Kaky is really from the Tankei Kingdom ( ). The two kanji  represent tankei in Japanese. In Chinese, they represent Dangui, which is the Chinese name of a kind of fragrant olive.
|
The Kinmoku means "fragrant olive" as can Kinmoksei,
|
“Kinmoku” does not mean “fragrant olive.” Kinmokusei ( ) in Japanese refers to a kind of fragrant olive that the Chinese call Dangui.
|
though kinmoksei can also mean "The Olive Star" or "The Planet Kinmoku".
|
That term "kinmoksei" doesn't mean anything in Japanese. Kinmokusei, written with the appropriate kanji (), refers to a kind of fragrant olive. Kinmoku-sei  (with the suffix  sei attached) means Planet Kinmoku.
|
She is also sometimes called Sailor Kakyuu, and this is where the "Fireball" meaning stems from.
|
She has only one sailor soldier name: Sailor Kaky.
|
Princess Fireball is the princess the Starlights came to Earth looking for. On their own planet Kinmoku, her lover had been killed by Sailor Chaos
(" and she killed him too...right before my eyes....")
|
Sailor Chaos is mentioned only in the manga. In that continuity,
Seiya specifically says, “Her beloved was lost to Galaxia.”
|
and it would also be easier to find her because men have a better sense of smell!
|
That is the author’s own opinion. Besides, the characters in the
anime and manga do not say such a thing.
|
She could grow wings (It seems all princesses can do this)
|
The other princesses in the series are not there, so we do not know whether they also have the ability to grow wings. Several of the princesses can do that, but why would we conclude that all the princesses can do that?
|
After the Starlights were destroyed by Sailor Chi and Phi, and she had been previously teased by Sailor Heavy Metal Papillon about their deaths, Princess Fireball became so furious she transformed into Sailor Kakyuu!
|
This passage does not make much sense because it does not describe the
events in the proper chronological order. It makes me wonder whether the author actually read the manga. Here is a brief synopsis of the events:
1. Sailor Phi and Sailor Chi destroy the Sailor Starlights and take the Sailor Crystals of the Sailor Starlights to Sailor Galaxia.
2. Sailor Moon, Sailor Chibi Chibi, and Kaky Princess meet Sailor Heavy
Metal Papillon. Papillon attacks Sailor Moon, Sailor Chibi Chibi,
and Princess Kaky until Sailor Chibi Moon and the Sailor Quartetto destroy
her.
3. Sailor Moon and the others arrive at the Star Garden and the Star
Gardeners introduce themselves.
4. Princess Kaky becomes Sailor Kaky.
The author makes it seem like the Sailor Starlights are destroyed after the fight with Sailor Heavy Metal Papillon, but that is incorrect. The former incident takes place at the very end of volume seventeen and at the beginning of volume eighteen. The latter incident does not take place until later in volume eighteen!
