TRIVIA

Although many fan sites claim that Ami's IQ is actually 300, her real IQ is unknown. The "300" figure comes purely from speculation: in episode 008, Usagi's classmates circulate a rumor that Ami's IQ is 300. Her real IQ is never stated.

Mercury Power, Make Up! The phrase Ami Mizuno uses to transform into Sailor Mercury, used first in Episode 8. Ribbons twirl around her, and there is a ripple effect.
Mercury Star Power, Make Up! The phrase Ami Mizuno uses to transform into Sailor Mercury in part of Sailor Moon R, S, and SuperS. It is used first in Episode 62. Blue stars spin around her, she spins around, ribbons surround her, and she ends posing in front of a blue Mercury symbol.
Mercury Crystal Power, Make Up! The phrase Ami Mizuno uses to transform into Super Sailor Mercury, her final form in the anime. It is first used in Episode 151. She uses a new henshin pen in this one. The pen emits a blue light that engulfs everything, and Ami turns into Sailor Mercury.
Sabão Spray Sailor Mercury's attack which first appeared in episode 008, when Sailor Mercury appeared. She summons bubbles in the air and shoots them at the enemy, leaving a bubbly mist that can't be seen through. The attack is primarily used as a defensive attack, used to distract the enemy so that another soldier to use a more forceful attack to destroy it. However, it can also be used offensively, such as in episode 024 when she uses it to actually stop a youma's attack in mid-air. In episode 045, Mercury uses the attack to protect herself from heat generated by the DD Girls' illusions. "Sabão" means "soap" in Portuguese. This attack is often called Shabon Spray.
Sabão Spray Freezing The powered up version of Sailor Mercury's Sabão Spray. It is her second attack and first offensive attack, although not as powerful as some of the other senshi's attacks. With this, the Sabão Spray freezes the target. Appears first in Episode 53. In the English DiC dub, it is called Mercury Ice Storm.
Shine Aqua Illusion Sailor Mercury's third attack, after Shabon Spray and Shabon Spray Freeze. Mercury gathers energy from a single drop of water falling to the ground, and spins around, conjuring up water. She guides the water through the air with her left hand, and then shoots the massive column of water it at the opponent, surrounding the him or her in water or freezing him into a solid block of ice. First appears in Episode 62.
Mercury Aqua Mirage Super Sailor Mercury's most powerful attack. It was shown ONLY in the movie special, "Ami-chan no Hatsukoi". She used it to destroy the evil spirit, Bonnone (Bonne), that was sending her love letters. A swirling stream of water forms a sphere, which she guides in an arc with her right hand, finally causing it to drop and splash at her feet. It then swirls around her body. She then raises her arms above her head and thrusts them in front of her, sending forth a large column of water that divides into smaller columns, which seek out the opponent and strike, forming a glowing sphere around the enemy, which suddenly explodes in a huge wave of water, revealing the target - who is now just a mass of water - who then explodes also.
Mercury Aqua Rhapsody Super Sailor Mercury's attack in which she plays a harp. Water shoots from the harp, and hits the enemy. Appears first in Episode 151.
