Ami Mizuno (PGSM)

Ami Mizuno is the civilian identity and present-day incarnation of Sailor Mercury. This is the second live-action depiction of the original manga character.

Appearance
Like the majority of the characters who initially appeared in the manga, her appearance in PGSM has some considerable differences from her original depiction.

Ami has shoulder-length black hair that is halfway pulled back along fringe and brown eyes. It is not uncommon to see her wearing glasses, though she only does this for fashion and does not need to wear them.
