EPISODE 173 - Sailor Buri


the phage that appeared in episode 173. She was the first phage to appear in the series. In her human form, she was the actress Alice Itsuki, who appeared on the popular television show "Z-Files of Detective Boy Holmes." During a break, Alice went to her trailer to freshen up her make up. When she stepped out, she was approaced by Iron Mouse, who removed her starseed. The light of her starseed quickly burned out, causing her to transform into Sailor Pretty. Sailor Buri immediately attacked Eternal Sailor Moon by throwing a spiked microphone at her. Sailor Moon didn't want to attack her, even with Luna urging her on, because she was originally Alice Itsuki. The Starlights arrived on the scene for the first time in the series and were attacked by Sailor Pretty in a similar manner, but Sailor Star Fighter quickly fought back with "Star Serious Laser," injuring her. Sailor Moon, however, refused to let them kill the phage, even though they claimed that once a person because a phage, that person could not be saved. Sailor Moon was convinced otherwise, and used "Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss." Sailor Buri transformed back into Alice Itsuki, much to the surprise of the Starlights. The word "buri" refers to yellowtail tuna. Often, Sailor Buri is incorrectly called "Sailor Pretty". See also: Alice Itsuki.
