Teacher Morino

Morino or Morino-sensei was an anime-only character who appeared in episode 135. She was an art teacher at Juuban Municipal Primary School, and was targeted by Tiger’s Eye for her Dream Mirror.

When Morino-sensei chided Chibiusa for adding a Pegasus to a painting that was only supposed to be of scenery, Kyuusuke told her that if she was not so stubborn she would probably be married. Morino-sensei was upset by this, seeing it as evidence of her inability to get along with children, and stopped to speak to Tiger’s Eye in his guise as a fortune teller, whereupon he attacked and removed her Dream Mirror.

When Sailor Moon, Sailor Chibi Moon, and Tuxedo Mask arrived to help the teacher, Tiger’s Eye summoned the Lemures Hebihanabiko to deal with them. After the Senshi defeated the Lemures, Morino-sensei awoke to find Chibiusa nearby. After she spoke to the girl about the painting with a Pegasus in it, Chibiusa told her that she did not care if she did not get a good mark on the painting, because she still liked it. Morino-sensei headed home in a pensive mood, thinking over how Chibiusa said that she liked herself just the way she was, and decided to not give up and keep going with that thought in mind.
