This is the first full studio album released by the band Yorushika (stylized ヨルシカ), a J-pop/J-rock group made up primarily of songwriter and composer n-buna and vocalist suis, along with other credited performers on various instruments. The album is framed as a collection of letters and songs written by a musician, and left behind in a box for a woman he knew. The letters provide context for the songs, expanding on their themes and concepts and grounding them in the fictional musician's life and travels. Yorushika's two earlier mini-albums, as well as this album's partner album, Elma, provide additional context as well.

The "intended" reading of the album is alongside a slideshow of photos and letters, ordered as if they're being pulled out of the box they were left in one by one. This slideshow is hosted on Yorushika's website: https://yorushika.com/feature/moonlight

I've ordered the tracklist as it is both in this slideshow and on music streaming services / the album's liner notes. However, the letters themselves, and the dates on which the songs were written, are jumbled chronologically. Still, they're grouped together in envelopes that suggest what "chapter" of the album they belong to.
