Black Moon Clan
The Black Moon Clan (ブラックムーン一族, Burakku Mūn Ichizoku?, lit. "Black Moon Family") is a fictional clan existing in the 30th century in the Sailor Moon metaseries. It comprises the antagonists of the second major story arc, which is called Black Moon in the manga and which fills the majority of the Sailor Moon R anime. In the dubbed anime they are called the Negamoon Family in an attempt to connect them to the Negaverse, the dub version of the Dark Kingdom. The two groups are unrelated in the original.
Members of the Black Moon Clan come from Planet Nemesis, a fictional tenth planet of the Solar System. It is described as a planet of "negative energy", having the ability to vanish from sight, but remained traceable by X-Rays. All members of the Black Moon Clan have black, upside-down crescents on their foreheads (the inverse of the marking of the Silver Millennium). They wear earrings which, according to the Materials Collection, are made of Black Crystal and allow them to teleport.

Famous quotes containing the words black, moon and/or clan:
“Christianity as an organized religion has not always had a harmonious relationship with the family. Unlike Judaism, it kept almost no rituals that took place in private homes. The esteem that monasticism and priestly celibacy enjoyed implied a denigration of marriage and parenthood.”
—Beatrice Gottlieb, U.S. historian. The Family in the Western World from the Black Death to the Industrial Age, ch. 12, Oxford University Press (1993)
“It was the most wild and desolate region we had camped in, where, if anywhere, one might expect to meet with befitting inhabitants, but I heard only the squeak of a nighthawk flitting over. The moon in her first quarter, in the fore part of the night, setting over the bare rocky hills garnished with tall, charred, and hollow stumps or shells of trees, served to reveal the desolation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It has now become the doctrine of a large clan of politicians that political honesty is unnecessary, slow, subversive of a man’s interests, and incompatible with quick onward movement.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
