Dark Kingdom

The Dark Kingdom (ダーク・キングダム, Dāku Kingudamu) is a group of fictional characters who serve as antagonists in the Sailor Moon manga series by Naoko Takeuchi. They are the primary antagonists of the first story arc in every version of the series. They are first introduced in chapter #1 of the manga, "Usagi – Sailor Moon", originally published in Japan's Nakayoshi on December 28, 1991. In some English adaptations of the anime, the Dark Kingdom's name is change to "Negaverse".

Before the events of the series, the Dark Kingdom comes into being in the 20th century when the servants of those who had served the evil Queen Metaria millennia before (in the battle that destroyed the civilization on the Moon) were reawakened. However, in some of the English adaptations, the word "reborn" is used rather than "reincarnation" — it is implied that Queen Beryl and her cohorts were active the whole time even if they did not accelerate activities until the arrival of Sailor Moon. The group is led by Queen Beryl and the Four Kings of Heaven, who attempt to gather human energy with which to reawaken Metaria.

Dark Kingdom (video game)

Dark Kingdom (ダークキングダム) is a 1994 Japan-exclusive role-playing video game released for the Super Famicom.

Gameplay

The object is to play an evil mercenary named Gene Dorman. Instead of trying to save the world from an evil demon king, he joins forces with him in order to complete missions. Accomplishing each mission allows access to stronger allies, better abilities in addition to promotions in military rank.

Sometime in the game, Gene meets up with the so-called "hero" Lux; sharing an undiscovered connection in the process. There is an external clock than can differentiate between day and night. Statues of the Demon King can be found in villages where the people pledge their allegiance to their leader.

Players must also engage in random combat; ranging from wildlife to hostile castle guards.
