Hotaru leads a very isolated life. She is an only child (her mother died when she was very young, and her father is always too busy with his experiments...), and she doesn't make friends easily. In fact, she scares most would-be friends off because she has a strange power: the ability to heal wounds. Her first friend is Chibi Usa (Rini); they met after Hotaru caught Chibi Usa's hat as it was blowing away. Hotaru is surprised and glad that Chibi Usa is not afraid of her power when she heals her scraped knee. Hotaru, herself, has a very weak body and can exhaust herself much quicker than any normal person which also contributes to her isolation.

I am glad she has a friend, but I believe that she could find a better one. For further explanation, please click the banner below, and feel free to support the cause!. ^_^

Hotaru also has the ability to transform into SailorSaturn, and as SailorSaturn she is much stronger. There is another being, an evil being, lying dormant within her known as is Mistress Nine. After she is reborn, Hotaru, grows up faster than a normal child, until she reaches the age she was at before her rebirth. Setsuna, Michiru, and Haruka help care for her along with her father, and they soon earn the names "Setsuna-mama", "Michiru-mama", and "Haruka-papa". Even as a baby, she has extreme powers and give Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto their super powers.
