text: '''Naru Osaka''' (''Ōsaka Naru''), otherwise known as '''Molly Baker''' is [[Usagi Tsukino]]'s childhood friend and schoolmate. She seems to be attacked quite often by [[youma]], and hero-worships Sailor Moon, as Sailor Moon always rescues her. 
  
  In the anime, Naru even fell in love with the evil [[Shitennou|Nephrite]] who came to regret his evil ways and became good after he too returned her feelings, though he died whilst protecting her.  
  
  She doesn't know that Usagi is Sailor Moon and since she isn't a Sailor Soldier, Usagi doesn't spend as much time with Naru as she used to. 
  
  [[Umino Gurio]] later becomes her boyfriend. By the beginning of the [[Dark Moon Saga]] of [[Sailor Moon R]] she became a minor character. Her last appearance is in the [[Ami Special]].
  
  In the manga she has a little sister named [[Naruru Osaka (manga-only)|Naruru]] whose best friend is [[Ruruna Kobe (manga-only)|Ruruna Kobe]], who are featured in a short side story in the [[StarS]] manga. Both share a love of shopping, not something shared by their other friend, [[Chibi-Usa]]. It is because of their love of shopping that they become [[Sailor Channel (manga-only)|Sailor Channel]] and [[Sailor Guccicci (manga-only)|Sailor Guccicci]]!
  
  In the Japanese anime, Naru Osaka is voiced by [[Shino Kakinuma]], with a strong Osakan accent.  It is possible that she has figured out who Sailor Moon is.  It's strongly hinted towards the end of the Black Moon Arc.
  
  In English, she is named Molly Baker and played by [[Mary Long]], who gives her a strong Brooklyn accent, perhaps to try and give the same sense of the Osakan accent given to the character.
  
  In the Live Action Sailor Moon series, towards the end of the series, Naru finds out that Usagi is Sailor Moon.
