The Manga

In Manga Volume 2, Tuxedo Kamen comes in time to see Usagi fall to the ground unconscious. He gathers her into his arms and takes her back to his apartment. Usagi wakes up and sees Mamoru, she then sees the top hat, cape, and tuxedo that belong to Tuxedo Kamen.

"I remember..." Usagi thinks. "That low voice..." She looks at him. "That tuxedo tie..." She stands up and walks over to the couch. She picks up the mask. "But... I didn't notice..." She goes to him. "The deep color of his eyes..." She places the mask over Mamoru's eyes. "Tuxedo Kamen...?"

"Why?" she asks. "How can you be Tuxedo Kamen?"

"To get my memory back," he says, "I have to get the Mystical Silver Crystal."

"Your memory?"

Mamoru begins to tell Usagi all about how he lost his memory and what happened to his parents.

"Haha!" the young boy says. "Mom, Dad, hurry up! Let's go for a drive!" His parents smile.

The car flies over a cliff, and plummets to the ground.

"It's too bad about the parents..." the doctor says. "But it's a miracle the son, Mamoru-kun, survived."

The boy sits up in bed, bandages around his head. "Who am I?" he asks. "How did I get here? I can't remember anything!! Who am I!?"

Usagi gasps.

"It was on my sixth birthday," Mamoru says. "I lost both my parents in the accident. My memory was completely gone."

"Your name is 'Chiba Mamoru.'"

"When I woke up in the hospital, that's what they told me... But I didn't remember it. So am I really Chiba Mamoru? Or... I could be someone else. I don't know... After a while, I started having a dream. The same one, over and over."

"Please! The Mystical Silver Crystal..."
