The Dark Jewelry Star Bracelet is a corrupted counterpart to the guardians' Jewelry Star Bracelet in the live-action series. A brainwashed Ami Mizuno uses it to become Dark Mercury by calling out Dark Power, Make Up.
This bracelet is a shadowed variant of the standard Jewelry Star Bracelet worn by the Sailor Guardians in Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon. It falls into the hands of a mind-controlled Ami Mizuno, operating under the name Akumi, who relies on it to take the Dark Mercury form.
Its coloring is the inverse of the original. Where the ordinary bracelet is pink with red hearts, this one flips to heart-shaped ornaments in dark blue and violet, with a white outer surface.
Ami triggers the change into Dark Mercury by speaking the phrase Dark Power, Make Up, the bracelet serving as her transformation device throughout the brainwashed stretch of the story.
Ami Mizuno, in her Akumi persona, is the only wielder. In Act 28, after she has been restored to herself, she is still found wearing the bracelet in Kunzite's forest. She takes it off and throws it away, yet she and Usagi keep stumbling back onto it, and those repeated encounters end up guiding the two out of the woods. Notably, this stands as the single instance in Sailor Moon where a guardian's transformation item itself is turned to darkness rather than only her form.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
