Summary

Now under the full control of Wiseman himself, Chibiusa has become the Death Phantom's most loyal minion and malevolent Queen of Darkness: Black Lady. Will Sailor Moon and her five dearest companions be able to release Chibiusa from the immensely strong negative energy that controls her, or will the past and future both fall to the point of nonexistence at the hands of its own princess and future queen?

Changes

Changes from the Original Anime

• Black Lady did not manage to gain possession of Sailor Moon's immeasurably strong Silver Crystal itself, but was eventually overpowered by its brilliantly purifying light combined with the real memories of her beloved mother and father and returned to her old self only minutes before the Dark Gate had fully opened.
• Saphir was ruthlessly wounded and murdered by Wiseman shortly after Black Lady was born and while trying to warn his brother of Wiseman's deception.
• Black Lady was never ordered to capture either Sailor Moon or her comatose mother at the Crystal Palace, but instead willingly harnessed the full evil powers of the Malefic Black Crystal itself in order to have the Dark Gate open much faster.
