 Amy is the Sailor Senshi of frigid waters and ice, Sailor Mercry (in addition to being the Princess of Mercury, her home planet). She is very intelligent, calculating, and cautious of the things that go on around her (which sometimes ends up working to her dis-advantage in certain situations). Amy indulges herself in many different type of intellectual persuits (in between hangin' out with Serena/Usagi, Raye/Rei, Lita/Makoto, and Mina/Minako). As her Senshi counterpart, Sailor Mercury, she is able to use her high-tech gadgets and mastery of ice and water to plan the best attacks to bring down the enemy as efficiently and quickly as possible.
 Amy is realized to be the 2nd Senshi, Sailor Mercury, towards the beginning of the 1st season of the SM series. Serena and Molly (Naru) see a new girl in the halls of Juuban (Crossroads) Junior High. And at that moment, Melvin (Umino) runs up to the 2 and tells the "dirt" on the new girl; her name is Amy and in her previous school, she got the best grades and had the highest IQ (which makes her look like a snow to most people because she is smarter than they are). Later on in the same episode, Serena and Luna think that Amy is a NegaVerse/Dark Kingdom spy (for finding a computer disc associated with her and suspicions for "shady" material on it). Then, they go to where Amy is (at her "cram school", or computer class in the DiC dub) and find that Amy really isn't at fault, but a NegaVerse youma (or monster) posed as a teacher! While Sailor Moon and Luna watch the youma press amy's head against a computer screen, they see the mark of the planet, Mercury, appear and flash on her forehead! Luna then hurles the Mercury henshin pin (transformation stick) to Amy and Amy morphs into Sailor Mercury, guardian Senshi of the planet, Mercury!
 Amy's character changes the most (arguably) from the beginning of the 1st SailorMoon season to SailorMoon S. In the beginning, Amy seems like the stereotypical, male "kowtowing" style woman, or wife (which made her very appealing to many males back in Japan). She wasn't really that outspoken of a character (like Serena and Raye have always been ^_^). Nut as the series goes on, Amy (and Sailor Mercury) become more outgoing, vocal, and opinionated. Without a second notice, many people would say that Amy (or Sailor Mercury) is a weak character with not much importance. But to fans (or people who just know), Amy is a strong character with many overlooked points.
 One of Sailor Mercury's highest points in the SM series is in the SM Sailor Stars series. Queen Nehelenia (or Nephrenia/Neherenia) breaks free of her mirrored seal (to keep her young forever, but at the same time, keep her in eternal solitude). Through many battles, the Senshi (both Outer and Inner) are separated, and Sailors Mercury and Uranus happen to be with each other (in a mystical place that Nehelenia inhabits). There's one problem: Uranus and Mercury are surrounded by Nehelenia mirror clones that are attacking! To defeat them, they must find the mirror clone that acts as the "power source" for all of the other ones. Uranus wants to blast everything away (and risk being killed in the process), but Mercury insists that they analyze the situation first and find any weaknesses in Nehelenia's plot. While Sailor Mercury uses her "patented" VR visor, Sailor Uranus takes the brunt of Queen Nehelenia's attacks, buying Mercury time. SUCCESS! Mercury finds the mirro to destoy and deminishes it, killing the other mirror reflections as well. When Sailor Uranus asks how Sailor Mercury found the right mirror to get rid of, Sailor Mercury said that when she was scanning the mirrors, all of them had Nehelenia's hair waving in the wind, EXCEPT for the one she (Mercury) had identified. Uranus then compliments Mercury on her keen sense of observation.
 "Don't judge a book by its cover" fits perfectly for Amy. Without amy, no one would be as successful in breaking up Serena's and Raye's "fights" ^_^. Without Sailor Mercury, the Senshi would rush into battle and possibly have their lives taken "many times over"! Amy's character in vital for the success of the Inner Senshi and of the SailorMoon series.
*FACTS FROM DIAMOND'S INNER SENSHI INNER CIRCLE:
-The SM movie, "Amy's First Love" ("Ami-chan no Hatsukoi") is not only a movie, but is in the Super S manga (as a part of their "School Battle Mini-Series"!). Of anything taken from the SM manga and translated to the SM anime, "Amy's First Love" was the most accurately done.
-Amy has a romance, too (^_^)! It is in the 1st season of SM (and with a boy names Greg/Urawa Ryo). Greg comes to Juuban Junior High School (Amy's school back then) and takes all of the same classes as Amy does and just just as well as amy does (which peaks Amy's curiosity). (*Greg turns out to be a Rainbow Crystal carrier for the NegaVerse and appears in only 2 episdoes of the SM series. Please check out my episode summaries to read up on Amy's and Greag's relationship).
-When the SailorMoon series initially came out in Japan (back in 1992), Sailor Mercury was the most popoular Senshi! No joke, either! She was that popular because her character was modeled after the stereotypical, Japanese male's dream of a "perfect" wife.
-Amy's name in Japanese (Mizuno Ami) means "beautiful center of water" (when translated).
