This character is called "Tuxedo Mask", but he doesn't wear a Tuxedo, he wears White tie evening dress. There's a very clear distinction and I think it should be noted in the article, probably in the description of the character. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ozoneocean (talk • contribs) 11:13, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Where's the source for Mamoru's birthday? Apparently we need one, and I can't find it in either the Materials Collection or Volume 11. Not sure where else to start looking. --Masamage ♫ 04:10, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is another better oil picture of it, but I think this illustrates it well enough. The trinket on King Endymion and the trinket on Edward the VII is *exactly* the same. It just so happens that originally the Tuxedo was called a Smoking Jacket and was used for such functions. The person who issued this first jacket was Edward the VII, Prince of Wales at that time. In fact, the many trinkets on the breast seem to *strongly* resemble some of the badges Edward the VII wore....

http://www.gac.culture.gov.uk/gac_images/Fullsize/04654.jpg <-- here is the exact sequence here... that's on the breast pocket.
He also *traceably* started the Sailor Suit trend with children... I think the temptation for Takeuchi-sensei was too great and she recognized through her research that this was a man to model the tux on and actually copied some of his badges, which you can see from the pictures. But I'm afriad it's waaaaayyy too OR, even if it's kind of plain to see...
The copying of the Trinkets, Le Smoking Bomber, slang is smoking Jacket, and the connection with the Sailor Suit... why not do a large tribute by copying some of the things that made him prince? Plus the fact that the prince is wearing a white tie with a contrasting color... It's almost hit you over the head. Oh well... probably OR... --Hitsuji Kinno (talk) 02:38, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
