   And because I'm bored, my take on this (which I'm sure is blatantly   
   obvious and doesn't need to be discussed, but hey, it's nice to see some   
   subtlety in the show):   
      
   Mamoru has told Usagi that he didn't like weak girls.  Usagi has since   
   been trying to make herself stronger.  I would think she would associate   
   this 'weakness' with her childish tendencies, which explains why she   
   sees herself as a child in the dreams, unable to get to him because he   
   walks away from her 'weak self'.  However, when he kisses her outside of   
   the dream, she is able to 'catch' him.  It is at this point that she   
   once again because a teenager, thus showing growth.  At that moment, she   
   probably felt mature and 'strong' enough to be with him.   
      
   Too bad he had to ruin that.  But I was very happy to see her deduce   
   (and not with stupid means this time) that clearly there had to be a   
   reason for Mamoru's coldness--why else would he try to pretend a   
   taken-girl was 'with' him?  At least with her thinking that way, I don't   
   get quite as mad.  It's when she says things like 'I'll love him no   
   matter howly coldly he treats me' that I get upset, given how much that   
   sounds like someone justifying abuse.   
      
   Okay, I'll stop rambling now.
