Does lead to some questions about what else he might be, doesn't it?
Also, my point about stepping outside one night is... well, for the first time in her life, she knows where to *find* him. Sure, she can't get to him just yet, but I can definitely see her stepping outside to yell insults, threats, and recriminations directly at his incarnation as the moon.
Mind you, I could totally see Yoko doing something similar - though it'd likely be rather less loud, and rather less angry.
Also... there's a thing that perturbs me about the economy of the whole thing. A billion yen up front, and a million a month. 12 million a year. 80-some-odd years later, she's made her signing bonus in monthly pay. These numbers, they do not go together. I don't have any idea how much yen is really worth, but there shouldn't be three orders of magnitude difference between the two. That's like offering someone a million as a signing bonus and a yearly salary of 12,000 (with a minimum work period of three years, to boot). It makes no sense.
