Content

In the afterword, Arina Tanemura expresses a little disappointment with her previous artbook, Kamikaze Kaito Jeanne: Arina Tanemura Illustrations. She goes on to say that she began working harder on her illustrations so that her next collection would satisfy her.

Unlike her previous illustration collection, The Art of Full Moon contains art from several of Tanemura's series, including Phantom Thief Jeanne, Time Stranger Kyoko, and I.O.N. Art from her short stories, "Gin-yu Meika", "Short-Tempered Melancholic", and "This Love Is Nonfiction" are also included. Tanemura also incorporates comments about each image into the artbook.
