At Juuban, however, there are rumors that say that she transferred there, because she got expelled from her old school.

Biography
Makoto first appears when she sees a group of boys picking on Usagi and comes to her rescue. Usagi thanks her and later takes her to meet with Rei Hino. Once they meet, Rei senses that something is different about her, making both her and Luna suspect that she may be another Guardian. Like in other adaptions of the series, Makoto appears as a boy-crazy girl, a trait that is used to her disadvantage to lure her into a trap set by the Dark Kingdom. Sailor Moon comes to save her and during the process Makoto transforms into Sailor Jupiter.
