Key Points
Venus was the first senshi to be contacted. Artemis came to her on Christmas, and she began her adventures as Sailor V soon after. She did not reveal herself to be Sailor Venus until later, and even then she was acting as a decoy princess.

Minako is an extremely popular Idol, with several hit singles out and lots of commercials and appearances. When two new rivals, Mars Reiko (really Hino Rei) and Kuroki Mio (Beryl's shadow) appeared, she had to fight to maintain her popularity.

Unfortunately, balancing her career and her mission as a senshi became increasingly difficult as her terminal illness progressed, and her refusal of treatment in order to continue the mission of the past life put her at odds with Rei and Artemis.

Minako had the best memories of the past life, and as a result she desperately triesd to keep Usagi away from Tuxedo Kamen and later Endymion. She and Zoisite recognized that they have similar missions, and even teamed up in an effort to keep the two lovers seperated.

Once her illness began to affect her ability to continue her mission, she decided to quit being an idol. While her friends finally showed her that the current life mattered just as much of the past, her decision to act on her own treatment came too late...
