My hope is that the subtitle of "And Then the Girl Went Mad" provides further context that makes the assumption easier for people who aren't in the know (as no one has brought up any objections for The Ending Moonlit Tale I can guess it's easier to tell what's going on in it). I will continue to defend its grammatical accuracy but I will concede it may result in some momentary confusion. It's just my assumption that looking at the title there's only two logical conclusion someone can arrive at.

1. It's grammatically inaccurate (which it isn't)

2. It means "Moonlit Tale" as a sepearate term and "Abandonment" as a qualifier.

I'm not entirely seriously suggesting this, because it would mess with the structure and I don't know if Japanes has colons or not (if it does then I wouldn't, because if they did and there was supposed to be one, it would be in the title already), but we could do "Moonlit Tales: Abandonment".

Not sure on the plural either (it feels more natural but we probably shouldn't pluralize it)  but while it wouldn't work quite as well with the subtitle, "Moonlit Tales: End[ing]" is better than "Moonlit Tale of the Ending".

And, to be even MORE clear, when we say series, we're not referring to the Original Sin story. We already know that's a series. That's not what the title is referring to. And Then The Girl Went Mad is not part of the OSS. We are talking about how they are linked by the title, not how they are, canonically, part of a series.
