The Moon does things to people. Makes women crazy, drives the lunatics wild, or maybe is the external power source for some supernatural powers. The full Moon might bring out the monster in someone, or a new Moon may bring the human out of a monster. It may be tied to illusions, metamorphoses and inconstancy, mirroring the Moon's constantly cycling phases. In general, the Moon is often a catalyst in magical things. More mundane things are stealth on the night of a new Moon, or illumination on the night of a full Moon. A full Moon is associated with lycanthropy as the most common way to trigger the transformation (a trope that is somewhat Newer Than They Think), and lunar symbology is often strongly associated with werewolves even beyond the transformation. The duality of the Sun and Moon is also seen as mirroring the duality of men and women. From that, the Moon is usually a feminine symbol (this may be because both have monthly cycles). The words "lunacy," "lunatic," and "loony" are derived from "Luna" because of the folk belief in the Moon as a cause of periodic insanity. When planning stealthy invasions, some characters will wait for the night of a new Moon when the sky is the darkest. Characters themed around the moon might have silver jewelry, and they may be introverted and mysterious. If the work is of East Asian origin, they may also have rabbit motifs. See Bad Moon Rising for situations where the Moon itself is changed. See also Melancholy Moon for when used as a sad backdrop. The Power of the Sun is often used as a Foil to moon-based power, especially if there are Cosmic Motifs featured in the work. See also God of the Moon. |

Sengoku Basara: Mitsunari has a moon theme going on in order to contrast with his nemesis Ieyasu. As an Iaijutsu Practitioner, his slashes make crescent shapes and a moon appears in both his Limit Break and his stage. The game often uses sun and moon imagery in order to symbolize the both and the final battle between them is represented as a solar eclipse. | |

Digimon: Digimon Adventure: The full moon is featured in Gabumon's transformation sequences into WereGarurumon and MetalGarurumon. Digimon Tamers: Renamon first digivolves into Kyuubimon on the night of a full moon. Like Gabumon above, her transformation sequences into her Ultimate and Mega forms feature a full moon. Digimon Data Squad: MirageGaogamon has two moon-themed attacks — "Full Moon Blaster" in which he fires an energy blast from his chest and "Double Crescent Mirage" in which he fires crescent moon-shaped shock-waves from his hands. In Burst Mode, he wields a weapon that seems like a cross between a flail and scythe, invoking the image of a full moon and a crescent moon. |

Bleach: The name of Ichigo's Zanpakuto is Zangetsu which translates to "Slaying Moon" and in shikai form it can fire an energy blast in the form of a white crescent moon-shaped wave. Ichigo's father Isshin has a Zanpakuto called Engetsu ("Scathing Moon"). He can also perform the Getsuga Tensh� ("Moon-Fang Heaven Piercer") attack just like his son. One of Rukia's attacks is Some no mai, Tsukishiro which translates to "First Dance, White Moon". It creates a white circle that freezes anything within that space. |

A Certain Magical Index: The Archangel Gabriel is strengthened by the Moon due to its elemental alignment. Both times it appears, the Moon is not up, so it solves this by casually and instantly causing nightfall and a full moon. Since Acqua of the Back is empowered by Gabriel, he is also powered up by the moon. While he can't forcibly cause the Moon to appear like Gabriel, Acqua is able to be flexible with what constitutes as "moonlight." As long as a light source can just resemble a moon, such as an artificial moon on a viewing screen or even city lights filtering through a circular crater at night, he can receive a power boost. Presumably, Gabriel can do the same thing if by some miracle it can't force the Moon to appear. |

Kingdom Hearts II: The Dragon Saïx. He uses the ominous Kingdom Hearts floating over The World That Never Was as the focus of his powers, turning him from The Stoic into The Berserker and turbocharging his attacks with a glowing blue energy. The aforementioned MacGuffin is, for all intents and purposes, the moon of The World That Never Was; the theme of the world is entitled Sacred Moon, the city is draped in eternal night with the only light source being Kingdom Hearts. | |

In The Name of the Wind, when Elodin and Kvothe visit the Rookery, it's commented that the moon makes the patients worse. This may actually be true, since the moon seems to be linked to both their world and the Fae realm, and the insane may be seeing through a weak spot between worlds. | |

Superjail! has an interesting variation: in the pilot episode, the Warden decides to order bunny suits for all of the inmates. The Twins screw up his order, of course, and half of the suits are wolf suits. The Warden decides to "congratulate" the Twins while they're working out in the prison yard with the inmates (who are now clad in either bunny suits or wolf suits). The Warden then proceeds to "start the big show" and raises the full moon in the sky. The prisoners in the wolf suits suddenly start foaming at the mouth and transform into actual werewolves. | |

Bloodborne: The Moon plays an intricate part in the game's lore and themes, usually tying in with the themes of blood and the beginnings, endings and repeating of cycles there-in. After the player kills Rom, the Vacuouse Spider, the blood moon descends, empowering the supernatural phenomena that plagues Yharnam and driving those already unstable at the beginning to fits of madness. This is best demonstrated with Sister Adella, who goes completely insane and tries to kill the player after killing Arianna for want of her blood, or for Arianna who suffers labor pains and then gives birth to immaculate Lovecraft slug-freak-baby. Also, the moon has a god in it. | |

One Sub App in Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, called "Lunatic", lets you speak to demons during the Full Moon (something otherwise impossible). Because they're drunk on the moonlight, they don't really know what they're saying, and will ask bizarre questions. You have a 50/50 chance of impressing them or pissing them off; impressing them can earn you rewards up to and including instantly recruiting them — this is one of the only two ways to recruit Dark demons without having to fuse them (The other being them joining on their own accord with yet another Sub App). | |

Shin Megami Tensei: The waxing and waning of the moon is a key gameplay feature in every game. In general, the fuller the moon is, the more damage your attacks do, the more likely an accident is to occur during fusion, and the crazier the monsters act. During a full moon they're practically drunk off those moonbeams, which makes for entertaining conversation, but also makes it harder to recruit them. There are also some abilities that are more or less effective depending on the phase of the moon. For pragmatic gameplay reasons, the moon cycles every couple of minutes rather than twenty nine days. Certain games have their own quirks: In Persona 3, the moon's phases have a stronger effect on the world (and gameplay) of Persona 3 than in other Megaten games: during a Full Moon, Nyx's influence is so great it causes greater Shadows to manifest outside Tartarus, leading to special "extermination" missions (read: plot bosses) once every month. Full and New Moons also have an effect on the protagonist's psyche by affecting the Persona fusion processes. On the other hand, the game plays moon phases more realistically, not only taking roughly an entire in-game month for the moon to complete its cycle of phases but also using real lunar phase data from 2009 and 2010, the years that the game takes place. There's a period of time in Shin Megami Tensei I where the main character would take damage during a full moon. This is because of his psychic link to the Heroine, whose reincarnated self is currently undergoing torture from a demon that has invaded her mind. The full moon makes him feel her pain. This is solved by rescuing her. In Digital Devil Saga, there's a 50% chance during every new moon- excuse us, MIN Solar Noise that your characters will be cured of any ailments that they are suffering from. Also, the selling price of Cells is at its highest during MAX Solar Noise. In the sequel, Digital Devil Saga 2, there is a chance during 7/8 or MAX Solar Noise- sorry, Solar Data that you will enter battle in Berserk Form. You can guarantee that you get the best items from Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne's Mystical Chests by opening them during a full moon. The drop rate of Gems is also highest at this point. One Sub App in Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, called "Lunatic", lets you speak to demons during the Full Moon (something otherwise impossible). Because they're drunk on the moonlight, they don't really know what they're saying, and will ask bizarre questions.

In Naruto, the demon Tanuki sealed inside of Gaara is at its most powerful at full moon, and it's easier for Gaara to transform into Shukaku. (Thus, at least pre-time-skip, Gaara arguably counts as a were-tanuki.) | |

There are multiple legendary Pokémon associated with the moon: Pokémon Diamond and Pearl introduced the Lunar Pokémon Cresselia, a benevolent swan-like creature which extends its aurora during the quarter moon, brings pleasant dreams, and is viewed as the embodiment of the crescent moon with a color scheme evocative of the Chinese moon goddess Chang'e. Pokémon Sun and Moon introduces the Moone Pokémon Lunala as, appropriately, the mascot of Pokémon Moon, an enormous bat known in legend as "the beast that calls the moon" for its ability to draw in the daylight and even spread light from its own body to act as a full moon. Interestingly, both of them are Psychic-type. | |

This is because of his psychic link to the Heroine, whose reincarnated self is currently undergoing torture from a demon that has invaded her mind. The full moon makes him feel her pain. This is solved by rescuing her. | |

Dragon Ball: Saiyans with tails on turn into giant monkeys by seeing the moon. In one of the few times that the author tries to rationalize anything in this manga, Vegeta explains that Saiyans absorb the special frequency of light caused by the full moon and a certain gland in their tails prompts their transformation. This also means that anything that can generate that same light can trigger the transformation. Gohan's transformation was triggered a second time (after Piccolo destroyed the moon to stop his first transformation) by Goku's original pod projecting an image of a full moon into the sky. Saiyans figured out how to create a Power Ball that could simulate full moonlight, which Vegeta used against Goku in their first battle after losing a Beam-O-War with him. | |

Fear & Hunger: Termina: The affliction that has struck Prehevil was caused by the moon god, Rher. Those residing in the city have become "moonscorched", mutating their appearance and driving them insane. As time passes, the train's passengers will also become moonscorched, transforming them into powerful, deadly monsters unless the player intervenes. By night 3, all of the passengers save for the player's party members have been transformed. | |

Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest: The Moon Dragon God Selene has this as her Dragon Slayer Magic. She can create an artificial moon at will which she can teleport beings at will with and can forcibly turn day to night while using her powers. She molds lunar light into various forms such as beams, fire, blades, various constructs, explosions, and when she's serious she can make the actual moon grow in size, which could mean she's actually expanding its natural size, or she's drawing the moon closer to the planet. | |

In The Dresden Files, there are four types of werewolves, however only one is bound by the full moon: loup-garou. These are cursed people and it is generally inherited through the bloodline. The victim of the curse becomes an insanely powerful feral wolf who will kill anything that gets in its path from moonrise to either moonset or sunrise. A loup-garou can only be killed by silver that was inherited. No other type of attack will take one down, as it heals from any wound instantly and resists mind-altering magic. | |

Supernatural: Werewolves transform into their feral state on nights during the week leading up to the full moon (with the exception of Pureblood-type werewolves, who are unfazed by the lunar cycle). Making this trope feel a bit more eerie is that werewolves not only experience total memory blackout when they revert to normal, but that they actually need to fall asleep at night for the effect to kick in. | |

Power Rangers: Power Rangers Wild Force: On the night of the new moon, Zen-Aku loses his powers and becomes his human self again. However, he gets full moon power Inuyasha doesn't get. Basically, his power waxes and wanes with the moon's phases as a rule. (This also accounts for the traditional Strong as They Need to Be factor the show has. Invincible in his first and last battles; whenever one Ranger is a match for him, it must not be near full moon time!) When Merrick fully breaks Zen-Aku's control and becomes the Lunar Wolf Ranger, he retains the moon motif, and on one occasion, when the other Rangers lend him the powers of their primary Wild Zords, it turns the Predazord into a Blue Moon form, giving it a temporary paintjob and a giant energy beam finisher. Power Rangers Mystic Force had Clare taking up her mother Niella's powers as the Gatekeeper, themed and powered by the moon. "Power of the shining moon... behold, the Gatekeeper!" |

Discworld subverts the "full moon = magic" cliché: the effect of the full moon on werewolves is mentioned but rarely has much impact (though there is the humorous consequence of werewolves suffering from their "time of the month" — PLT, Pre-Lunar Tension). Instead, on Discworld, the most magical phase is a half moon, because it represents Liminal Time and the edge between light and darkness. | |

Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood has a notable endgame boss with a moon motif: Tsukuyomi, a primal summoned by Yotsuyu crossing the Despair Event Horizon and going on a small-scale Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum. Her body is half abalaster white and half obsidian black to represent the full and new moon, and one of her attacks divides the battlefield in half, black and white, with the player's lunar phase status increasing towards one color or the other the longer they stand on one side, potentially killing them if they don't switch sides. | |

In Persona 3, the moon's phases have a stronger effect on the world (and gameplay) of Persona 3 than in other Megaten games: during a Full Moon, Nyx's influence is so great it causes greater Shadows to manifest outside Tartarus, leading to special "extermination" missions (read: plot bosses) once every month. Full and New Moons also have an effect on the protagonist's psyche by affecting the Persona fusion processes. On the other hand, the game plays moon phases more realistically, not only taking roughly an entire in-game month for the moon to complete its cycle of phases but also using real lunar phase data from 2009 and 2010, the years that the game takes place. | |

Exalted: Luna, the goddess of the moon, is an eternally changing shapeshifter of a myriad shapes always flowing into one another and ever-shifting moods and whims. This is specifically evident in how her chosen, the Lunar Exalted, regard her. Like all Exalted, Lunars accrue Limit if they go against their guiding Virtues; however, they also gain Limit whenever the full moon's in the sky. Instead of realizing there may be some external reason for their occasional crazy rampages, they just ascribe it to Luna being chaotic like that. The Lunars themselves are characterized by their shapeshifting — they all have their original shape, that of their totem animal and a hybrid battle form, plus those of whatever other creatures they consumed. As in Werewolf, a Lunar's role is linked to a phase of the moon; here, however, it's chosen by the Lunar, as they lost the inherent assignation of Caste when the Lunars as a whole fled into the Wyld after the Usurpation. Those that aren't marked are the Casteless, whose Caste abilities shift with the moon and bear the risk of becoming Chimerae. The other three positions are Full Moon (warriors), Changing Moon (tricksters and diplomats), and No Moon (sorcerers and scholars); there used to be five Castes, but again, the Wyld screwed with that. |

Pathfinder has two different deities closely associated with moons. One is Acavna, an old Azlanti goddess of protection who sacrificed herself to protect Golarion from the worst of Earthfall. The other is Groteus, a massive moon with the features of a skull that hands over the Boneyard in the afterlife, slowly descending to shatter the Boneyard and trigger the end of all things. Most of Pathfinder's many werecreatures have the usual relationship with the full moon, but the insectoid entothropes reverse it, changing under the new moon instead. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Avatar: The Last Airbender: Waterbending is based on the Moon manipulating the tides. A Waterbender's abilities are at their peak when the moon is full, letting exceptionally powerful or skilled individuals use Bloodbending; conversely, Waterbending ceases to work at all when the moon spirit is killed during the first season finale. By The Legend of Korra, the Sequel Series to ATLA, it's shown that a full moon is not required to pull off Bloodbending if the bender is powerful enough, as shown by Tarrlok, Yakone and Amon. |

Dungeons & Dragons: Forgotten Realms: Used with the lunar goddess Selûne — the oldest deity in existence (barring her evil twin), and extremely difficult to get a handle on in regards to her actual portfolio, which changes like the moon. She's specifically the goddess of lycanthropes and women, but also encompasses divination, travelling, questing, tolerance, female spellcasters... In Dragonlance, arcane magic is governed by the three moons Solinari, Lunitari, and Nuitari (and the deities of the same names). Solinari is silver, Lunitari is red and Nuitari is black. The last governs evil magic, and is, for obvious reasons, really hard to see. Spelljammer introduced moon dragons, whose coloration mimics lunar phases over a 28-day cycle, which affects not just a moon dragon's appearance, but also their stats and Character Alignment. When entirely black, a moon dragon is Chaotic Evil and fights at full power, but when half-and-half it's Neutral Evil and at half-power, while a wholly white moon dragon is Lawful Evil but only at a quarter of its full strength — though the glow from a fully-white moon dragon can cause lycanthropes to involuntarily change shape. 3rd Edition has a monster called moon rats. They are perfectly ordinary rats most of the time, but when exposed to moonlight they become stronger and more intelligent, with the most pronounced effects during full moons. Moon rats are also evil, organized, able to remember events of past months, and patient enough to plan and execute sinister plots that will require dozens of lunar cycles to come to fruition. The Vistani and their "Giomorgo" (half-non-Vistani human) offspring in Ravenloft suffer from a condition called "Moon Madness", which makes them extremely emotional and erratic during the three nights of the full moon. Both races are unable to recover hit points or memorize spells on these nights and take penalties due to sleep deprivation during the day until they get a full 8 hours of rest, and these are the unavoidable penalties. Depending on edition and race, they may also behave like wild animals during the night of the full moon, or literally go insane for the night, to represent how overwhelmed they are by the moon's magic. |

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, after Enrico Pucci absorbs The Green Baby into his body, he leaves the Green Dolphin Prison to initiate the final process of awakening its power; by waiting for the new moon's arrival while being at a specific location. When cornered by the heroes, Pucci figures out he doesn't actually need the new moon; he only needs to recreate the gravitational conditions that the new moon brings, allowing him to obtain Made In Heaven. | |

Jackie Chan Adventures: Out of the eight Demon Sorcerers who are each associated with an element of the Bagua from which their magic is derived, the Moon Demon Tso Lan possesses Gravity Master magic. Besides that, Tso Lan, between his Demon Portal's location halfway between Earth and the Moon and also his Evil Plan upon being freed, seems like he likes getting an excuse to spend more time hanging around Earth's Moon instead of on the planet. It's also worth noting, with Tso Lan's ability to remove the moon from orbit using his gravokinesis and wreck the Earth's entire ecosphere, he's arguably the most powerful out of all the eight demon siblings. | |

Digimon Data Squad: MirageGaogamon has two moon-themed attacks — "Full Moon Blaster" in which he fires an energy blast from his chest and "Double Crescent Mirage" in which he fires crescent moon-shaped shock-waves from his hands. In Burst Mode, he wields a weapon that seems like a cross between a flail and scythe, invoking the image of a full moon and a crescent moon. | |

Berserk: Witch apprentice Schierke explains that the night of a full moon is the time at which people's minds are most susceptible to madness. This is a problem for Guts because he has an Enemy Within, the Beast of Darkness, which is always trying to drive him Ax-Crazy. Getting the Berserker Armor exacerbated this problem, because it amplifies its wearers negative emotions and gives the Beast of Darkness a conduit to make possessing Guts easier. So far there have been two times when Guts has fought while wearing the Berserker Armor on a night with a full moon: both times Guts was unable to resist the Beast, and Schierke was unable to enter his mind to free him because the moon made the Beast and the Armor too powerful. Thankfully, it just so happens that a mysterious little boy with long, black hair appears to visit Casca and Guts on nights with a full moon. This supernatural child has the power to reach Guts even in his worst madness, and both times it was only with his help that Schierke managed to release Guts from the Beast's possession. In the Fantasia Arc, it turns out that this boy is none other than the child of Guts and Casca, whom Griffith used as the vessel for his reincarnation into the world. Whenever the moon is full, the Child temporarily gains the power to take over Griffith's body and use it to visit his parents. |

In The Otherworld, werewolves have to change approximately weekly, unless they want to have weird things happen like their hands turning into paws in the middle of a grocery store (or just changing spontaneous, with an associated loss of control). At one point the Alpha explains that while they do often change on the full moon, it has more to do with the added light being good for hunting than the phase the moon is in. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: The moon, for some reason, has an influence on the whereabouts of the Ghost Ship. There is even a map illustrating the islands the ship visits according to the lunar phase. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: The Blood Moon, said to be the time when Calamity Ganon's powers reach its peak, will turn bigger and red, a reddish-purple miasma will envelop the land, any monsters Link's fighting will be healed, and defeated monsters will come back to life. |

In the World of Mana, Luna is the elemental spirit of the moon, representing metal, artifice, and celestial powers. This sets her up as the opposite of Dryad, the wood spirit. Secret of Mana has Luna, whose Moon magic has many uses, from casting MP-stealing spells, berzerker like buffs, to shape-changing your foes. Luna returns in Trials of Mana. Very few classes have access to any of Luna's spells, but Hawkeye's Wanderer class can cast all but one of them. The game also features the Duskmoon Forest, home to the werewolf-like Beastmen (including Kevin, who can gain access to the one Moon spell that Hawkeye can't cast) who transform and get stronger at night. Unsurprisingly, the Duskmoon Forest is where you eventually find Luna. The game also includes Dolan, the Benevodon of the Moon's power. He resembles a titanic werewolf-like creature, and can summon the moon to drain the party's health, cut their lives exactly in half, and grant himself the same berserker buffs as the party can cast. In Sword of Mana, Luna's magic is associated with transformation, able turn a caster into a moogle-like creature to evade monsters that don't rely on smell at the cost of being unable to attack. She can also turn enemies into Wimps, small Blob Monsters that also can't attack. The exact form her offensive magic takes depends on the caster's weapon, but always gives off a golden light. If the caster wields an axe, the resulting Spread Shot arcs back at the edges in a crescent-like shape. |

The first game of Mega Man Star Force has optional boss Wolf Woods, whose boss fight has clouds blocking the full moon in the background. Occasionally, the clouds will move back and expose Wolf Woods to the moon, changing him into his stronger and faster Berserk Form until the clouds cover the moon again. The third game doesn't have this feature at all when the boss makes his return. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V: Serena uses a deck archetype called "Moonlight" ("Lunalight" in the dub), which has a theme of female dancer werebeasts. This trope truly kicks in with The Reveal that Serena's bracelet is actually the MacGuffin card "En Moon", which harnesses one of the four natural energies of the world (the moon obviously, with the other three being wind, birds and flowers), and is absolutely crucial in defeating Zarc. | |

Cardcaptor Sakura: Syaoran develops a crush on Yukito, because Yukito is really Yue, and thus has a lot of moon-energy, and Syaoran draws energy from the moon himself. (Strangely, Kaho is another moon-energy-manipulator, and yet Syaoran doesn't develop any sort of attraction to her. In fact, he's afraid and suspicious of her.) The Clow Cards are divided into two elemental super groups, either symbolized by either the Sun (Keroberos) or the Moon (Yue). The classic four elements are then divided under them (Fire and Earth under the Sun, Wind and Water under the Moon) and the other cards divided under the classical elements. |

Then there's what the moon phase does for werewolves. Like in the predecessor game, a werewolf's phase of the moon (the one they were born under in the old game, the one they first change under in the new game) determines their basic role in werewolf society. Full moons are warriors, gibbous moons are bards and prophets, half moons are judges, crescent moons are shamans, and new moons are tricksters and rogues. | |

In The Dragon Prince, the moon is one of the six original Primal Sources of magic, the others being the sun, the stars, the sky, the earth and the ocean. Lunar magic focuses on the understanding that appearances are deceiving and changeable even though they're all we can really know about the world, and on manipulating these appearances in order to alter and control how others perceive things. Moonshadow elves, such as Rayla, become more powerful and gain Visible Invisibility under the full moon, and moon mages can cast illusions so lifelike that they can fool even hearing, touch and taste. | |

The Mink Tribe gains a power up when they stare at a full moon, which causes them to transform into a form known as Sulong, making them much more powerful and faster. When Carrot demonstrated her Sulong form in Chapter 888, she also gained very long Mystical White Hair. While the Sulong form can make a Mink stronger, it can quickly drain their stamina and possibly make them die of exhaustion. However, Minks can revert back to normal by not looking at moonlight. | |

Pokémon: There is a move called "Moonlight" that restores HP based on the weather, and in the games they debuted in, the time of day. In later games, it works identically to its counterpart, "Morning Sun," which results of a Dub-Induced Plot Hole due to the clear skies field effect being translated as strong sunlight - Moonlight restores the most health when the sun is shining. A good number of Pokémon evolve only at night, several of which having some kind of moon-related reason or theming beyond it. Eevee's Dark-type evolution Umbreon is a Moon Rabbit-esque creature which the Pokédex said notes as evolving through the light of the moon, Rockruff becomes its more vicious and bipedal werewolf-inspired evolution as opposed to a more standard quadruped if it evolves at nightnote (which in its debut generation occurs specifically only in Moon and Ultra Moon), and Frosmoth's evolution from Snom at night may be a somewhat literal take on the name of the real-world moon moth. Even if not evolving at night, several Pokémon are described as being more active or powerful at nighttime, but none embody this more than Lunatone, which according to the Pokédex is known to brim with power specifically under the full moon and is mentioned in the Pokédex to be theorized as having connections to the lunar phases. There's also the Moon Stone, a magical rock that allows a miscellaneous and loosely moon-themed grouping of Pokémon to evolve. Only one of them, Clefairy, has any concrete connections to the moon, being a species said to have come from the moon and being consistently found during nighttime. Among the other Moon Stone-evolving families, two have rabbit-like traits, with Jigglypuff - a Pokémon suspiciously similar to Clefairy - becoming the rabbit-eared Wigglytuff, and the spiky rabbit-like Nidoran lines reach their final forms with it, becoming kaiju-like monstrosities in accordance with the Rule of Cool. note The other two Moon Stone users, Skitty and Munna, have less immediate or defined moon links than the rest, with Skitty merely having a crescent-shaped face and evolving into the nocturnal Delcatty and Munna being a dream-eating Pokémon with a name likely incorporating moon or luna. Generation VI introduced the Fairy type, which was initially shown off with another Moon Rabbit-evocative Eevee evolution with Magical Girl influence named Sylveon, which was frequently shown using the move "Moonblast", a beam made by borrowing power from the moon and the strongest base power of all Fairy-Type moves. Additionally, the previously-mentioned "Moonlight" was changed to Fairy-type. These combined with the fact the aforementioned Clefairy and Jigglypuff families were given the type (with the former becoming pure Fairy) give the Fairy-type something of a lunar theme. There are multiple legendary Pokémon associated with the moon: Pokémon Diamond and Pearl introduced the Lunar Pokémon Cresselia, a benevolent swan-like creature which extends its aurora during the quarter moon, brings pleasant dreams, and is viewed as the embodiment of the crescent moon with a color scheme evocative of the Chinese moon goddess Chang'e. Pokémon Sun and Moon introduces the Moone Pokémon Lunala as, appropriately, the mascot of Pokémon Moon, an enormous bat known in legend as "the beast that calls the moon" for its ability to draw in the daylight and even spread light from its own body to act as a full moon. Interestingly, both of them are Psychic-type. On August 30-September 1, 2023, Pokémon Sleep held its first global event, Good Sleep Day. It happens for three days every month near the full moon: the day before it, the day during it, and the day after it. During this, Snorlax consumes the full moon's energy to significantly boost its Drowsy Power, while the encounter rate for the Cleffa line is increased. |

The DCU: June Moone aka The Enchantress of Suicide Squad and Shadowpact fame is a sorceress with a tendency to turn evil when getting Drunk On Power. In Shadowpact Issue 5, Ragman is attacked by Blue Moon, a magically-empowered Professional Killer whose powers depend on the phases of the moon. According to Enchantress, Blue Moon could have killed Ragman had she fought him during a full moon. This was also why Ragman failed to add her to his cloak of souls — due to the nature of Blue Moon's powers, she is fairly easy to defeat and throw in prison so technically she has already done her penance. |

Eleking, a monster originating in Ultraseven where it was killed early on, was resurrected six years later in Ultraman Taro, thanks to the monster's horns (left behind after its initial defeat) absorbing light from a full moon allowing it to revive at will. Ultraman Taro defeats the resurrected Eleking again, and this time he took the horns away from earth to prevent it from absorbing the moon's energy and returning to life. | |

Skies of Arcadia. There are six moons (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Purple, and Silver, plus a hinted-at lost Black one), all powering different types of magic, all dropping meteorites onto the land below which everyone then uses to power just about everything. And that's not even counting their plot-critical role. | |

In Fate/Grand Order, Caligula's insanity is stated to be due to the affections of the moon as afflicted by the goddess Diana. His Noble Phantasm "Flucticulus Diana" lets him spread his madness among others and involves summoning a moon to curse them. Ironically in the Lostbelt Saga, Lostbelt Artemis's, the Greek counterpart of Diana, efforts to invoke this on Caligula end up curing him of his insanity and making her think this tactic is useless on Proper Human History Servants. His Noble Phantasm is also able to counteract Lostbelt Aphrodite's madness spell as well. | |

In Chrono Cross, Harle, the harlequin minion of villain Lynx, is revealed late in the game to be the Dark Moon Dragon, created by the other six Dragons to be a servant of the Dragon God. She was created secretly so that she could release the seal on the other six Dragons and they would be able to merge once more into the Dragon God and unleash havoc on humans once again. She is eventually abandoned by them, as she did not merge with the other dragons. She's even named Tsukuyomi in the Japanese version, after the Japanese God of the Moon. Her special attacks are all moon-based. | |

Touhou Project: In Imperishable Night, if you reach the "true" moon, the Big Bad reveals that "pure" moonbeams can drive humans insane. In one of Remilia and Sakuya's endings, it drives all the non-human characters insane. Reisen Udongein Inaba, one of the said Big Bad's servants, has the literal power to drive people crazy with nothing more than a glance. Ironically, and fortunately, she's one of the most sane characters in Gensokyo, although that's not saying a lot. In the Extra Mode of that game, a convenient full moon turns Keine Kamishirasawa into her hakutaku form, making her enough of a challenge to serve as an extra stage midboss. Remilia Scarlet's powers are at their strongest during the Scarlet Moon, setting the stage for the final showdown of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. Patchouli Knowledge has access to moon as one of the 7 elements she uses. Luna Child has the power to dampen sounds and create silence, and her power waxes when the moon is in the sky and wanes when it isn't. In Cage In Lunatic Runagate, Yukari claims that the moon "gave birth to all youkai" by illuminating the night, and therefore creating the first shadows for humans to fear. Mamizou Futatsuiwa's transformation powers are strongest on the night of a full moon. Some of Rumia's spellcards are strongly related to the moon. Moon Sign: Moonlight Ray is implied to use the moon power to create lasers. Kagerou Imaizumi is a werewolf capable of turning into an actual wolf when there's the full Moon. She also gets hairy, though. As the Moon's Hell is one of the three domains that Hecatia rules over, Hecatia Lapislazuli and her minion Clownpiece possess spell cards where they harness the power of the moon... by literally summoning moons to smack the player with. |

Final Fantasy: In Final Fantasy VIII, the Lunar Cry not only drops a torrent of monsters onto the earth from the moon, it also changes terrestrial animals into monsters. In Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, the phase of the moon affects the strength of various commands. For instance, when the moon is full, Physical attacks are weakened, while Black Magic is stronger and White Magic is unchanged. Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood has a notable endgame boss with a moon motif: Tsukuyomi, a primal summoned by Yotsuyu crossing the Despair Event Horizon and going on a small-scale Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum. Her body is half abalaster white and half obsidian black to represent the full and new moon, and one of her attacks divides the battlefield in half, black and white, with the player's lunar phase status increasing towards one color or the other the longer they stand on one side, potentially killing them if they don't switch sides. |

In Magic: The Gathering, magic associated with the Moon is usually either Red (chaos) or Blue (intellect). Depending on the setting, the local Moon might be of other colours, like White (order) and Black (ambition), such as in Kamigawa (where it is Blue and Black) and the Innistrad setting (where the Moon empowers both the local White church and the Green and Red werewolves, as well as a Blue Planeswalker, though she's from Kamigawa). The moon of Innistrad is a truly otherworldly thing, being a potent source of mana that can induce transformations. A shard of it was once used to create the Helvault, a nigh unbreakable prison for demons. The moon itself eventually becomes the prison for the Eldrazi Titan Emrakul. | |

Werewolf: The Forsaken: Luna, the mother of all werewolves, gets similar treatment. "Ever-Shifting Luna" is a more polite way of saying "Bitch crazy." For instance, she has spirits, known as the Lunes, who oversee each of the auspices and dispense wisdom to the Forsaken. The reason no werewolves ever try to make one a pack totem is because continued exposure to them can drive a werewolf insane. Then there's what the moon phase does for werewolves. Like in the predecessor game, a werewolf's phase of the moon (the one they were born under in the old game, the one they first change under in the new game) determines their basic role in werewolf society. Full moons are warriors, gibbous moons are bards and prophets, half moons are judges, crescent moons are shamans, and new moons are tricksters and rogues. |

Ultraman Taro defeats the resurrected Eleking again, and this time he took the horns away from earth to prevent it from absorbing the moon's energy and returning to life.

As for the moon, it reflects a portion of sunlight, not enough to turn him into Banner, but to allow him to influence the Hulk. So, when the moon is full, he will be happy and cheerful. It is when the lunar phase is at new moon that the evil Grey Hulk is at his prime. | |

Power Rangers Wild Force: On the night of the new moon, Zen-Aku loses his powers and becomes his human self again. However, he gets full moon power Inuyasha doesn't get. Basically, his power waxes and wanes with the moon's phases as a rule. (This also accounts for the traditional Strong as They Need to Be factor the show has. Invincible in his first and last battles; whenever one Ranger is a match for him, it must not be near full moon time!) When Merrick fully breaks Zen-Aku's control and becomes the Lunar Wolf Ranger, he retains the moon motif, and on one occasion, when the other Rangers lend him the powers of their primary Wild Zords, it turns the Predazord into a Blue Moon form, giving it a temporary paintjob and a giant energy beam finisher. | |

And if you're a Darkling of the Moonborn kith, you have a spiritual connection to the moon that lets you drive people insane with a touch. Of course, you get zapped with a lesser version of that madness yourself when you use it. | |

Luna returns in Trials of Mana. Very few classes have access to any of Luna's spells, but Hawkeye's Wanderer class can cast all but one of them. The game also features the Duskmoon Forest, home to the werewolf-like Beastmen (including Kevin, who can gain access to the one Moon spell that Hawkeye can't cast) who transform and get stronger at night. Unsurprisingly, the Duskmoon Forest is where you eventually find Luna. The game also includes Dolan, the Benevodon of the Moon's power. He resembles a titanic werewolf-like creature, and can summon the moon to drain the party's health, cut their lives exactly in half, and grant himself the same berserker buffs as the party can cast. | |

Ōkami: Yumigami is a rabbit god who gives you the power of Crescent, allowing you to raise the Moon at will. It's not that useful in combat, but being able to control the day/night cycle is handy in gameplay, since certain story events happen only at night. There are Mr. and Mrs. Cutter, two crow tengu who disguise themselves as human. Mrs. Cutter specifically says that during the full moon their kind gets too excited for them to move outside without exposing themselves. Yami, the final boss is meant to represent the cold and lifeless moon in contrast to Amaterasu, the sun goddess. |

Smite, being based on various mythologies, includes two Mayan deities that drew power from the moon: Xbalanque (immortalized as the moon) and Awilix (the actual Moon Goddess). Note that in spite of the Chinese deity Chang'e being titled 'Faerie of the Moon', she didn't exactly use moon power in battle, but rather... dances. | |

League of Legends has Diana, the Scorn of the Moon. She's a melee assassin whose abilities revolve around using moonlight to attack her foes, making her the opposite of the sun-powered Leona. While she is a dark character, her goal is more tragic: for discovering the long-hidden secret moon cult of the Lunari, the sun-worshiping Solari almost executed her before she was endowed with her lunar powers and killed them. | |

Beware of Chicken: Main character Big D/Bi De uses the phases of the moon as the basis for his personal cultivating style and techniques, invoking the crescent moon to generate talons of light or the full moon to form a qi barrier. Unusually, Big D is a rooster. | |

Spelljammer introduced moon dragons, whose coloration mimics lunar phases over a 28-day cycle, which affects not just a moon dragon's appearance, but also their stats and Character Alignment. When entirely black, a moon dragon is Chaotic Evil and fights at full power, but when half-and-half it's Neutral Evil and at half-power, while a wholly white moon dragon is Lawful Evil but only at a quarter of its full strength — though the glow from a fully-white moon dragon can cause lycanthropes to involuntarily change shape. | |

In Tsukihime, power of vampires is dependent on the phase of the moon. On full moon, even regenerating from one's ankles up is possible. The reason for this is all vampires are descended from what is essentially the Anthropomorphic Personification of the moon: Crimson Moon Brunestud. | |

Moon Knight is a former special forces operative that met and became the Avatar of the Egyptian God of the Moon and Revenge. Or he is just bat shit crazy as he suffers from extreme multiple personality disorder at times. His ability to be a hero just makes up for how full blown bonkers he can become, as he actually cut the face off his arch enemy at one point. Turns out his power actually does come from a god of the moon. This allows him to manipulate Thor's Mjolnir since it's made of uru, which is revealed to be moon rock (specifically it is an ore from the first moon in existence). | |

Negima! Magister Negi Magi: Vampires (or at least Evangeline, the only vampire we've actually met) grow stronger as the moon gets closer to full. It's subverted in that she gets more mileage out of people knowing this and thus being less prepared for what she can do when the moon's not full. We haven't actually seen her and a full moon together since learning about the connection. From her. | |

Bleak World has werewolves, obviously, but it also has the Host of Moon. The Host of Moon is the Token Good Teammate for the Hosts, a race of Eldritch Abomination that empower witches, unlike most hosts, the moon gives power to witches who have consensual sex. For comparison the other hosts demand that you: eat corpses of the fresh dead, Kill It with Fire, conduct Human Sacrifice, or kill republicans and industrialists. | |

In The Red Tent, the women menstruate like clockwork right around the new moon, unless they are pregnant or not of reproductive age. Jacob's wives (and eventually, Dinah) begin first, and the bondswomen and the wives of Jacob's sons typically start a day or two later. In Real Life, menstrual cycles usually don't synch up that much, nor are they always corollated with the moon's phases. | |

In Dragonlance, arcane magic is governed by the three moons Solinari, Lunitari, and Nuitari (and the deities of the same names). Solinari is silver, Lunitari is red and Nuitari is black. The last governs evil magic, and is, for obvious reasons, really hard to see. | |

On August 30-September 1, 2023, Pokémon Sleep held its first global event, Good Sleep Day. It happens for three days every month near the full moon: the day before it, the day during it, and the day after it. During this, Snorlax consumes the full moon's energy to significantly boost its Drowsy Power, while the encounter rate for the Cleffa line is increased. | |

Generation VI introduced the Fairy type, which was initially shown off with another Moon Rabbit-evocative Eevee evolution with Magical Girl influence named Sylveon, which was frequently shown using the move "Moonblast", a beam made by borrowing power from the moon and the strongest base power of all Fairy-Type moves. Additionally, the previously-mentioned "Moonlight" was changed to Fairy-type. These combined with the fact the aforementioned Clefairy and Jigglypuff families were given the type (with the former becoming pure Fairy) give the Fairy-type something of a lunar theme. | |

In SilverHawks, the light of the Moonstar of Limbo transforms Mon*Star (already a pretty imposing guy) into an even more powerful armored monster. The series begins when a burst of light from the Moonstar gives Mon*Star the strength to escape his prison. In one episode, a small piece of the Moonstar broke off and Mon*Star carried it around with him. This vastly amplified his power until the heroes got rid of it. | |
