Sailor Mars

Rei Hino is 14-year-old traditional Japanese girl who lives with her perverted grandfather in the Hikawa Shirine. She is a Shinto Priestess. Rei's mother died when the girl was young. Rei goes to a school for catholic girls only. The priestess is hotheaded and strongheaded girl, and she often seems to be mean to Usagi, but in fact Rei cares about her friends. She is also very dedicated to her mission as Sailor Mars and when it is time to defend the world, Rei jumps into the battle.

Rei, or Rei-chan as her friends call her, is a devoutly Shinto and she has the power to channel her visions and to "read" fire. She also can use an anti-evil spirits scroll. She throws it against possessed people saying "Rin, Pyou, Tou, Sha, Kai, Jin, Retsu, Sai, Zen! Akuryou Taisan!", returning the human to his/her normal self. The girl has six-sense about evil and strange things. Rei is also usually the first Soldier to sense the monster.

Rei was born on April, 17, her blood type is AB. Her astrological sign is Aries. Rei's favourite colours are black and red.

Usagi, Ami and Rei met each other for first time in Act 3. In the same Act, we are introduced to Rei, who while meditating in fron of the holy fire, feels some evil energy around. When the three girls meet, Rei throws her anti-evil spirits spell against Usagi, who collapses and when she feel okay, Usagi and Ami leave Rei's Shirine. Jadeite, who is in disguise, is kidnapping students who take the bus near the Shirine. Rei realises that Jadeite is a bad entity by "reading" fire, and when she confronts him, the general kidnaps the girl.

Usagi, Ami and Luna go to the bus-stop, where the bus vanishes with students. Usagi morphs into a stewardess, and later, Sailor Moon and Mercury confront Jadeite. The general tries to kill Rei, who eventually transforms into Sailor Mars, the Soldier of Fire, uses Aku Ryo Tai San, and defeats Jadeite.

Rei becomes Usagi's best friend. They are often seen shouting at each other because Rei thinks Usagi is immature at points, but they still love each other. The Shinto priestess is actually shouting at the people who are her closest friends.

Sailor Mars is protected by the planet Mars, which gives her powerful fire attacks.

Later in the story line, Galaxia brainwashes the Sailor Soldiers excepting Sailor Moon. The leader of the Senshi eventually manages to defeat them and bring them back to their normal selves. As Evil Sailor Mars, Rei receives three new attacks.
