This is a section I've decided to add because there are many people (particulary those watching the 'American Dubb' ::coughs::) that aren't aware of Haruka & Michiru's relationship. In the 'American Dubb' they have been made into cousins, but in the Japanese original they were lovers (lesbians). Still don't believe me? Here's some evidence that should change your mind.

Beware this is FULL of *spoilers*

Example 1: In the first episode of Sailor Stars Haruka & Michiru are in a tall building looking at a tank of fish. Haruka says"You like it here", Michiru replies "Just looking makes me relaxed, i could stay here for hours", Haruka thinks she is talking about the fish and responds that she would be more comfortable behind the wheel of a car. Michiru giggles and says "I wasn't talking about the fish silly". Meaning that she enjoys looking at Haruka.

Example 2: In the same episode later on, on the roof of the building. Skipping the details, some enemies appear and Neptune, Pluto and Uranus start to fight them. One of the enemies catches Uranus by surprise and pushes her off the building. Neptune saves her life by grabbing her arm (letting the monster fall to its doom). Neptune's grasp slips a bit and she says to Uranus "You eat too many sweets these days", and Uranus replies in a flirting voice, "I don't want to hear that kind of talk out of bed".

Example 3: Stars episode again, it's one where Usagi is on a date with Seiya but before he arrives Haruka & Michiru come up to Usagi who is in the park. They ask her if she is on a date and she asks why they would think that, they reply "Only pigeons and people on dates come to the park in the spring", (now,I'm pretty sure H&M aren't pigeons ^-^). After Usagi says that she is going on a date with Seiya and Haruka gets pissed off cause she doesn't like him. Usagi asks why (she doesn't like him) and Michiru says "Haruka doesn't like popular men", Haruka gives Michiru an annoyed look and starts to complain when Michiru says "Yes yes," and grabs Haruka by the arm and drags her away. Haruka is heard saying "Michiru you're hurting me", Michiru replies "Oh, am I?", Haruka says "I want you to touch me gently" Michiru says "Later when we're alone".

Example 4: SailormoonS episode 107. Michiru goes to a painting school (well to a private studio next to the school classroom). Anyway this little boy gives her some roses and a later scene shows her with Haruka, and Haruka notices the flowers and asks if they are from a boyfriend. Michiru replies "Of course". Haruka: "I didn't know that there was someone who was brave enough to fall in love with you." Michiru: "It's not often that you would get jealous." Haruka: "I'm not jealous. I just can't allow you to look at anyone else besides me." Michiru: "Haruka, that's called jealousy."

Example 5: In episode 110 when Uranus is about to get her talisman taken and Neptune is stumbling across the bridge saying "Haruka i won't let you die".

Example 6: Their death scene in Stars (need i say more about that).

Example 7: In Stars after the Three Lights' concert with Michiru. Seiya goes to Michiru's dressing room and they start flirting (i reckon Michiru was just doing it to get Haruka jealous). Michiru asks Seiya if he would like to help her get undressed, just then Haruka walks into the room and gets really, REALLY angry at Seiya. Seiya introduces himself and Haruka, instead of shaking his hand, punches her fist into his hand. After he leaves Michiru asks (in a flirting way) "Would you like to help me get undressed then".

Example 8: In the SuperS movie after Uranus, Neptune and Pluto turn up. Uranus was talking to one of the bad guys asking why they were doing this to the children. He replies asking what was wrong with a world were children stayed as children forever, then Uranus used her space sword to get rid of him. Uranus mutters something about why would anyone would want a world like that when Neptune says: "Becoming an adult makes it more fun! They shouldn't interfere should they?". Sweat appears on Uranus' face and she flicks her eyebrow then coughs nervously.

Example 10: At the end of Sailor Stars Neptune and Uranus are fighting Galaxia. Uranus runs at her with her sword and Galaxia catches it with her hand then sends Uranus flying backwards. Uranus says maybe it has become rusty, Neptune replies "Are you blaming your sword?" and Uranus says "I don't think I've lost my edge". Neptune: "Shall we try it out to see then" Uranus replies, "Later when we're alone."

Example 11: Naoko Takeuchi, the creator of Sailormoon, said herself that Haruka & Michiru are lovers.

If anyone still disagrees feel free to email me and I'll find a dozen more examples for you =)
