Melancholy Moon	comment	The Moon. Cold and distant, alone and lifeless... yet, it's the Earth's celestial companion, reflecting light to pierce the pitch-black night. So when a character is shown moon gazing, it means he or she shares many of these lunar traits: they are isolated and introspective, melancholy... yet oddly hopeful and self-reflective. All this just by having them look in silence at the moon, or using it as a big old backdrop. He or she may have a Tragic Dream, have suffered a Dark and Troubled Past, or have embarked on some new quest that promises to change their life. The trope is also frequently used in love songs, particularly in association with unrequited love (pining for or fixating on someone is sometimes even referred to as "mooning after/over" them). Can overlap with Weird Moon, often to emphasize the moon. In this case, the moment is used both to establish the world and the character. May also overlap with The Sacred Darkness, particularly when a full moon is paired with a clear starry night, creating an atmosphere of mystery and wonder. Contrast Watching the Sunset and Cue the Sun.

Melancholy Moon / int_23963d11	comment	One chapter in Disgaea deals with the Red Moon, under the light of which the Prinnies can earn atonement for their sins and be reborn. Considering that the Prinnies are explosive demon-penguins who usually serve as comic relief, the chapter is surprisingly poignant.

Besides Rasheed, Mariam is utterly alone in the world: her mother recently died and her father forced her to move away from the people she grew up with to marry Rasheed. Despite this, she's resolved to try and find happiness in her marriage to Rasheed (it doesn't work out).

Melancholy Moon / int_343830b9	comment	The Night Unfurls: In Chapter 1 of the original, Kyril is seen sharpening his Saw Cleaver under a moonlit night, preparing for his duty to Celestine, who gave him the task of delivering her rival Olga back to the South, alive. Within the sound of steel being sharpened, he broods over the reality that a hunter like him is better at ending lives than preserving them. Kyril then turns his attention to the Holy Moonlight Sword, which, as the name suggests, has a complimentary motif to the moon in the sky. The story then presents a Continuity Nod about the weapon's heritage: how the sword once belonged to the First Hunter of the Healing Church, Ludwig; how the owner of the sword inevitably fell to the Beast Scourge, twisted into an accursed beast, a mockery of his former ideals; how the man that was once Ludwig the Accursed finally found peace as Ludwig the Holy Blade; and lastly, how the blade, his mentor and guiding Moonlight, is bequeathed to the Hunter during his final moments. To cap it off, the last two paragraphs of this scene have Kyril hoping that nothing terrible would happen in the upcoming battle. Overall, it is a melancholy scene that compliments Kyril's isolated and introspective nature, especially to those who are familiar with Bloodborne lore.

While the student council is moongazing during the Full Moon festival, Kaguya mentions that she hates the moon due to it reminding her of her namesake Princess Kaguya in The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter (who was forced to return to the moon and abandon the man she loved). The next time the moon becomes a plot point it's under far more romantic circumstances, as a half-moon is used to represent her and Shirogane finally meeting in the middle and having a Relationship Upgrade.

There are connections beyond her melancholy demeanor since the moon is traditionally associated with mediums, and for a bonus, "Yin" is Chinese for "silver". And late in the second season, the moon returns, bloodred, in circumstances related to an Eldritch Abomination possessing Yin.

It's distant, cold, and lifeless, but nevertheless always shining through the night and a source of hope and wonder. It's present in every night scene, most memorably shining behind Luna during Wind's Nocturne, as well as playing a massive role in the plot of Lunar: Eternal Blue and being the focus of the Eternal Blue Theme. So, what's the twist? It's not a moon at all. The characters are living on its moon, called Lunar or the Silver Star, while gazing up towards the frozen planet it orbits, the Blue Star. One more thing - depending on the shot, you can see certain land formations on the Blue Star. Those include Africa.
