Personality
Anime
In the first anime, Raye Hino was a power-hungry, hot-headed, stubborn, overbearing, and somewhat tyrannical termagant who was obsessed with everything from being a Shinto priestess to being a musical idol. She often sadistically mocks and bickers with Usagi.
Manga
In the manga, Raye Hino was a stoic, serious individual who did not involve herself with men (due in part to her estrangement from her politician father). She was mysterious, reserved, and beautiful. Raye's manga image was more fitting with her role as a miko than her anime personality. She and Mina had a strong bond, similar to that seen in the live-action series.
Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon
Her personality in the live-action series was very similar to how she was portrayed in the manga. Raye preferred to act aloof and dignified at the beginning of the series, and insisted that she was not interested in being friends with the other girls or joining them in their activities (especially karaoke, which she professed to hate). As time went by, however, she warmed to them and became very close to her fellow Sailor Scouts. Of all the Sailor Scouts, she was the one who cared the least about her past life, and she often argued with Sailor Venus about that. She also had a very strong bond to Sailor Venus, similar, in certain aspects, to the one she had with Sailor Moon in the anime.
Musicals
In the musicals, Raye was far closer to her anime counterpart than the manga. She dreamed of becoming a composer.
Powers and Abilities
Raye had various powers outside of those as a Sailor Scout, which she used in her duties as a miko. These ranged from ESP to the ability to read flames (fire reading), as well as using ofuda as a weapon. Her ESP often led her to have premonitions about upcoming events.
