We have a couple of presents for MightyMorphinPower4 of Tara Boumdeay of the animated Attack of the Killer Tomatoes and Serena Tsukino the star of Sailor Moon being bound and gagged in Santa outfits.
Tara Boumdeay (voiced by Kath Soucie) - One of Dr. Gangreen's failed experiments. She abandoned his evil plans with F.T. and escaped to the Finletter's where she is Chad's best friend and waitress at Wilbur Finletter's Pizza Palace. Tara is a pretty teenage girl who has always liked Chad since he is always brave. She mostly wears a short red shirt, white shorts, and boots. Whenever salt is poured on her, Tara turns into a tomato. When pepper is poured on her, she sneezes and returns to her human form (usually given a tissue and blowing her nose afterward). She is also shown to have telepathic and telekinetic tomato powers. In the movie, she was actually Chad's girlfriend, but while she shows a definite interest in him, in the cartoon they never do more than occasionally hug.
Sailor Moon is the titular main protagonist of the manga and anime series of the same name. Her real name is Usagi Tsukino. She can fly and has other magic powers.
She is 14 at the beginning of the series. She is the couch potato and hates school. Despite all that, she owns a black cat named Luna. When it comes to food, she prefers to eat sweets and even she despises carrots, she holds one to see if it is not corrupted or darkened. Sometimes when she wears casual outfits, her bunned pigtails can be decorated with different colors of bows.
In the original English release of the manga by TokyoPop (fomerly Mixx) she was known as Bunny Tsukino while the original English dub from DiC Entertainment and Cloverway International, she was renamed to Serena Tsukino.
When Usagi Tsukino fights evil as Sailor Moon in the beginning of the story, she is portrayed as a "reluctant heroine", who is unwilling to fight and flees from her enemies, because she has a hard time fighting villains, monsters, and evil aliens and she doesn't want to end up as a damsel in distress just like all the other fictional girls in peril, often having to be bailed out or rescued by others, especially by Tuxedo Mask. Throughout the series, Usagi begins to develop into a mature, confident, and reliable woman, but has her crybaby moments now and then.
In the first anime, Usagi was a bit selfish and can be a drama queen. She was too lazy and hated school. Not only that she wasn’t really good at cooking, as shown several times during the series. She is also honorable which can be jealous of Mamoru, as shown in episode 136.
However, despite her flaky and child-like behavior, she shows to care very deeply for her friends and family. She was very trusting, and believed that everyone had a better nature; this could be both a character strength and a character flaw at times.
She did not believe in killing innocent humans, even when they had been transformed into vicious monsters, and always sought ways to heal them instead.
Over the course of the series, Usagi matured a great deal, and even though she was still prone to some childish behavior and bouts of silliness, she became a capable young woman.
In the manga (and by extension the Crystal anime remake and its later sequels) however, though she starts out slightly immature similar to her original anime counterpart, however in comparison, this version of Usagi is not as immature nor does have any of her original anime counterpart's accident prone or goofy childish behavior. However like her counterpart, this version of Usagi also sees the good within others which her friends do not.
