Haruna Sakurada

Haruna Sakurada was Usagi Tsukino's 8th-grade homeroom and English teacher at Juuban Municipal Junior High School. She had little patience with her students, and often yelled at Usagi for her poor grades and tardiness. She acted a little immature for a woman her age, and often rather like her students. In the live-action series, when Mio Kuroki transferred into her class she joined in with the students who were excitedly fawning over the famous idol. In one episode she forgot to dismiss two students who had been given detention while she went out on a date, leaving them stuck in the classroom for hours. She dreamed of finding a man and marrying one day. Haruna was frequently the target of attacks by the Dark Kingdom toward the beginning of the anime series, but showed up less often in later seasons.
