The Rosario Cross, also known as a Rosary, is a magical object worn by Outer Moka. It was bestowed upon her by Akasha Bloodriver, who was Moka Akashiya's mother when she was still a child.

The Rosario Cross was designed to seal Moka's Inner personality and create an alternate personality based on the appearance and traits of her mother. When the Rosario is removed, Outer Moka disappears and Inner Moka awakens from her slumber. The Rosario works as a medium for the two Mokas to communicate with each other. In the anime, the Cross used to power the school barrier is the same as Moka's, created by Issa Shuzen. In the manga, Akasha designed it to be only pulled off by someone that truly loves Moka and means her no harm, her "destined one", in this case that person is Tsukune, as he had fallen in love with Outer Moka; he only cares for Inner Moka as a friend.

The sealing powers of the Rosario can be temporarily canceled out by Lilth's Mirror and Belmont, but it can only be physically pulled off by Tsukune Aono. Outer Moka can still remove it, albeit with life-threatening consequences and damage to the Rosario. When Outer Moka removes it herself after being captured, she nearly dies in the process. Headmaster Tenmei Mikogami repaired it afterwards, but nobody knew that the seal had been permanently damaged. Over time, the constant removal of the Rosario by Tsukune had weakened the Rosario's sealing powers, eventually reaching the stage where Inner Moka is unable to return to the seal. Fang Fang Huang and Ling Ling Huang disclose that the seal was never really fixed, the reason being that Mikogami had learned all his sealing techniques from another whose skill exceeds the Headmaster: Touhou Fuhai, head of the Wong Family and one of the Three Dark Lords.

The group travel to China, meeting Touhou Fuhai, who agrees to fix the Rosario. By accident, Tsukune, Mizore Shirayuki and Fuhai enter Inner Moka's sealed memories, revealing her childhood, her family, her mother's sacrifice and how she came to possess two personalities. When they return to the real world, Touhou Fuhai quickly fixes the Rosario, surprising Akua Shuzen when Inner Moka unexpectedly reverts to Outer Moka.

Fairy Tale put Moka in a special seal to break the one on the Rosario. However, Outer Moka willed the seal to persist as she did not want Alucard to awaken. Even when Outer Moka vanishes once more, Inner Moka doesn't release her full power, both to keep Alucard from awakening and to keep Outer Moka from vanishing.
