“Full Moon” continues the narrative of Mikage and Yuichi. The section opens with the revelation that Eriko has been killed. Eriko was killed by a disgruntled client who saw her walking home one day and became obsessed with her. He began frequenting the club and making advances, and grew angered when she rebuffed him. He attacked Eriko with a knife and, though she managed to kill him with a barbell that was used as a prop, she succumbed to her wounds. This is all told after the event has happened. Mikage has moved out of the Tanabes’ apartment by this time. Some of her reasoning for moving was the unease caused by her living with Yuichi. Rumors began because of her living with Yuichi, and though Yuichi ignored the rumors, Mikage could not. It is winter when Yuichi finally calls her and reveals that Eriko has been murdered. Yuichi says that he has been unable to deal with the loss of Eriko and that, though he knew he should tell Mikage right away, he could not bring himself to do so. He apologizes. Mikage thinks back to the last time she saw Eriko at a minimart.
