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. |

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. | |

A Thousand Splendid Suns: After being forced to consummate her unwanted marriage to Rasheed, Mariam lays alone in her room, staring at the moon; when the clouds cover the moon it's compared to a woman drawing a veil over her face. 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). | |

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. | |

SAS: Rogue Heroes. The Special Air Service have to wait until the Moon sets so it will be dark enough to attack their targets. While they are waiting, Lieutenant Jock Lewes goes to bathe in the ocean and we hear a Voiceover Letter he's written to the woman he's proposed marriage to, lamenting her failure to respond and pondering how (regarding the Moon) something distant and remote could also be beautiful. | |

In Neon Genesis Evangelion just before Shinji and Rei prepare to go snipe the angel, during which they muse about why they pilot the Evangelions, the binds they have with people, and Rei promises Shinji that he won't die because she'll protect him, ending the scene with "Sayonara" with a big full moon over her shoulder.

Guts from Berserk is often seen staring at the moon, especially after forming his new group of True Companions, where he doesn't have to fight so much at night (since evil spirits are drawn to his brand at night) and he is allowed to be lost in his own thoughts, often of sad and bittersweet memories from his past. | |

Chapter 56 of Kaguya-sama: Love Is War has a case where the moon itself is the cause of the melancholy. 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. | |

In many continuities of the Devilman franchise that involve Satan killing Akira, the final scene involving Satan realizing the tragic mistake he had made almost always takes place under the light of the moon. DEVILMAN crybaby takes this up to eleven by having the bisected moon still visible in the sky from where it was cut in half during the previous battle between the Demons and Devilmen. | |

Ludwig van Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" is in minor and is a soulful and introspective song he wrote for a lover. (However, that title was not applied to Piano Sonata No. 14 until after Beethoven’s death. Some music critics strongly object to the use of “Moonlight Sonata� as a title for this piece.) | |

In Darker than Black, the Emotionless Girl Yin gets a lot of symbolic focus on the moon in her flashbacks to her tragic childhood, though the moon is admittedly absent from the sky in the present. 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. | |

The first Shrek movie has a scene in which Shrek and Donkey stare at the night sky, as Shrek talks about ogres of the past being among the constellations. Shrek ends up confiding in Donkey that the reason he pushes everyone away is that people tend to judge him as a monster before they even get to know him, so he feels he's "better off alone". Donkey assures Shrek that he never judged him. It ends with them looking at the moon, accompanied by this exchange: | |

The Lunar series has a funny variation on this. Throughout the series, there's a celestial body that unquestionably fills the same role as the moon. 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. | |

In a variation, Sailor Moon Crystal's Creative Closing Credits have Ending Theme "Gekkou", (Moonbow) where a princess muses on her romance with a prince, and her sudden sadness at the sight of a moonbow, making her regret that they must soon part, though she hopes to see him again. Since moonbows can only happen during a full or nearly full moon, an oversized, bright moon is reflected in the shallow waters where they walk, set to lyrics that speak of how dreams are delicate and fleeting. | |
