Sailor Moon

A magical girl anime focusing on the life of a 14-year-old girl named Usagi Tsukino and her life as a superhero known as Sailor Moon. She fights alongside her four friends Ami Mizuno (Sailor Mercury), Rei Hino (Sailor Mars), Makoto Kino (Sailor Jupiter), and Minako Aino (Sailor Venus) with the guidance of a talking black cat by the name of Luna. Created in 1992 by Naoko Takeushi, Sailor Moon is home to one of the most recognizable anime characters in the world.

Usagi is an inept middle schooler who struggles to arrive at class on time. She is prone to accidents, injury, and crying streams of tears. Her clumsiness initially gets the attention of Mamoru Chiba, a college student who has the knack of appearing in the same place and time as Usagi. His frequent jibes at her warrant the her annoyance and distaste. Though her flaws never fully disappear from her character, Usagi can show a caring, genuine, and open side to herself, especially when making new friends like the ones she battles her enemies with.
