ANIME


click for larger version Bonnon is the villian in the SuperS Special Ami-chan no Hatsukoi (Ami's First Love). During the special, Ami is feverishly studying for high school entrance exams, competing with a mysterious rival named Mercurius, who matches her perfect scores on every test. Ami works so hard that she begins severely lacking sleep. At her prep school one day, she accidentally sleeps through the entire class. When she awakens, it is dark out. Through the window, we see our first glimpse of Bonnon - a mysterious glowing red face which quickly disappears in a lilac mist. Ami leaves her class, quite disoriented. Meanwhile, the lilac mist materializes into Bonnon, who believes that Ami is in love because she is only thinking about a man - her rival. As a spirit, she plans to feed off of Ami's passions. She envelops the girl in her skirts, and Ami begins feeling sick on her way home. At home, Ami lies in the bed, ill, and troubled by thoughts that Mercurius is causing her harm. Because she is only thinking of Mercurius, Bonnon sees her opportunity to attack. She uses her "Love Letter Attack" against Ami. Suddenly, bubbles form over the girl's head, filled with all of the information she has learned and memorized. They begin to pop, causing her to forget everything. Meanwhile, Usagi, Mamoru, and ChibiUsa arrive at Ami's apartment. Inside, Ami is still having all of her knowledge sucked away by Bonnon. Usagi runs in to help her friend, but the floor has disappeared, leaving Usagi clinging to the door frame in desparation. ChibiUsa demands to know the villain's identity, but before she can introduce herself, the delirious Ami states that she is Mercurius, trying to defeat her. Bonnon tries to interhect with her true identity, but Ami won't allow it. She quickly transforms into Sailor Mercury and destroys the evil spirit with "Mercury Aqua Mirage." Bonnon's seiyuu is Kazue Ikura. She is often incorrectly referred to as Bonne, Bonone, or Bonnone.


MANGA


click for larger version Bonnon is the genius loci spirit in Volume 13, Exam Battle #2. Bonnon is awakened when she senses the intensity of Ami Mizuno's passion for studying and beating her academic rival, Mercurius. Spying Ami from the rooftop of the prep school where Ami attends, she speculates that Ami must be in love because she is thinking only of Mercurius (who Ami suspects may be an enemy, based on his perfect scores, which match Ami's in ever exam). Lately, Ami has been studying non-stop for her high school entrance exams, and has gotten very litle sleep. Due to this, her immune system is weakened, and she passes out on the way to school. She wakes up in the nurse's office, who tells her that she has an ordinary cold and must rest in order to feel better. While still in the nurse's office, Bonnon appears and uses a love letter attack on Ami so that she will be guided by her passions. Ami imagines all of the information that she has learned and memorized leaving her brain. Bonnon introduces herself, but Ami believes that it is Mercurius trying desperately to defeat her. Bonnon argues that she is not Mercurius, but she cannot convince the delirious Ami, who transforms into Sailor Mercury and destroys Bonnon with "Mercury Aqau Mirage" before passing out again, believing that she has destoyed Mercurius. Bonnon is often incorrectly called Bonne, Bonone, or Bonnone.
