- Discussing the final chapter, 108, of Houseki no Kuni, and my explanation for the meaning of the ending. I discuss my theory for the significance of the "Dawn Flower" in the final chapter and its link to the comet.
A detail I forgot to mention is someone said the paradise is probably called, "Lili" after Pebble's song.

Thank you for opening my description and reading the random stuff I put here :)
See you in the next video!
Chapter 108: "OG Phos is good enough?"
Readers: "Always has been"
Exactly
I thought that was a direction the story could go just based off the animated version I saw. That change can be good, but that it shouldn't come at the cost of who you are.
I'm so dang happy now, this ending and its build up was beautiful.
@@suruxstrawde8322 True.
After reading, I can now sleep peacefully knowing that my beloved Phos will no longer experience anymore hardships
Same
I have a gripe with this woman because even in the every lAST CHAPTER, SHE TOOK A BAT AND SAID " *ONE MORE FOR THE ROAD* " AND FUCKING SHATTERED PHOS ONE LAST TIME
As intended
LEAVE MY POOR BABY PHOS ALONE!!! 😭😭😭 This author is a sadist. 😢😢🥵😢😢🤤😢😢😏😢
The real body horror
For old time's (times'?) sake.
The way you described the ending brought back to mind my favourite quote from Undertale:
"Despite everything, it's still you."
Yeah that’s good
The Buddhist flower symbolism means there's only one degree of separation between adorable Phos and the nightmare fuel that is Shara Ishvalda.
The dragon from Monster Hunter???
hell yea
Really? What do you mean?
@@irondragonmaiden in one of the panels of Phos transformations, she was shown with eyes similar to that elder dragon
@@irondragonmaiden Shara Ishvalda's design is very heavily based off of Buddhism. The most obvious are:
The petal-like plates on its back.
When roaring, the way it holds its "wings" behind its head looks like an eight-spoked wheel. The armor also includes this.
Its phase two theme is called "A Single Flower Blooms in an Eternity", or something like that.
i love how much houseki, a manga you assume is just about pretty gem people, is actually one of the most deep stories on human nature and desire, and the lengths we'll go
It is done. I am now lighter
Truly
Now you can rest in peace😅
a lighter in a lower field is just a cruel image
wait, so all the characters became flowers? I actually drew some characters as flowers a year ago. A prophetic doodle
Wow you were cooking
Dang
Dayum
thank you for bringing up the stones on the spines of the books, totally forgot about those, and it legit made me start tearing up as the neurons finally connected because I was really confused about how to interpret those panels
Yep a really cool ending
As a person with mental disease I would like to thank you for the beautiful analisys and for the hopeful mesage. The fact that Phos constant journey of "improvement" was the reason itself por deep suffering is extremely touching because its the final proof that happiness actually resides in accepting oneself and in being part of a community that also does it (I think in buddhism it translates as Sangha). Thank you again for the delicate analysis and words - I hope that like Phos we can connect at our most vulnerable states and celebrate the gift of existing, despite the hardships in our lives.
Yes, I love the message so much
It's surprisingly hopeful
I like this take on the ending. so much stuff coming together the comets/shooting stars, adamant showing phos' eye to the ice flows, the flower gems it all makes sense. I have to admit the end of this manga has left a bit of a void on one hand I understand the themes and messages but on the other I wish we had a proper reunion for everyone and closure. Its weird despite the uplifting message/symbolism I don not feel good at all after that ending. Probably reading such an existential series while depressed wasn't my best life choice.
I know what you mean lol
Hopefully you can revisit it with happier eyes in a few 10,000 years
@@rizacreatorYT Thanks, your videos made me realise HNK wasn't just nihilistic suffering. I plan to read it again soon.
@@callum2277 I see it more as a cautionary tale. Where the characters and Phos always make the worst choices to teach us what not to do in order to improve our life
@@rizacreatorYT Now I get why I felt so bad about the end. I got too invested in the characters and relationships of a story designed to be a cautionary tale about how the worst choices destroy them. That was never going to end well for me. Fittingly you have to let go of the characters to appreciate the themes of self acceptance and improvement.
"I wish we had a proper reunion for everyone and closure." My thoughts exactly. I had wished for a more "conventional" ending where the old characters could reunite. I guess they did, in a way, as the most basic parts of their old selves...but I wanted more.
It seems you can still watch the Phos commet this weekend for anyone that just wants to try, the beautiful mint-colored comet Pons-Brooks-Pons will be visible this year for the first time in about 70 years (perihelion is April 2024). Ichikawa-sensei may have also "finished it on schedule" in line with this...
SOOO CRAZY
Oh, when is it happening? And where? First, it was the Solar Eclipe that I never got to see in person due to living on the opposite side of earth.
I do wish to not miss it.
I spent all day thinking about the ending of houseki no Kuni, right now I'm going through something very difficult in my life I felt like this would never end, The feeling of being destroyed by my own mind, the fear of lose everything and cannot be able to draw anymore... I feeling lighter now, things can get better, thanks for the video
Thank you for commenting, hope things get easier for you
You just blew my mind w the buddhist universe/flower connection. Especially 17:40 and on.. wow. And it makes sense since we saw phos watching the 'comet'. Beautiful analysis and message
Thank you!
I love this ending, it’s beautiful.
Hnk definitely showed what makes humans human, ironically made me love humans ever more.
It’s a really good ending
Thank you for breaking it down for my smooth brain
Of course
Wow! I had no idea that those flowers are universes of people’s souls! You made the last chapter more emotional for me as I didn’t cry when I read the last chapter, but you had to add more emotional meaning, because now I’m crying as I watched this video and thought about Phos’ journey.
Brongo! Nooooo! It’s very sad that he died, but at least he can rest in peace. His poem is fantastic.
This is a very emotional journey that I took, and I’m glad that phos got their bittersweet ending. May the new era prosper.
Yeee
I think the gem blooming might just be one of the gems being reincarnated, so all of them will end up in that garden
Yeah could be
Hoseki no Kuni will be roulding around my mind for years. I feel I don't fully understand the emotions this manga is trying to transmit, forgivness being the most important.
Your videos helped me to understand a bit better this piece of art. Thank you and I wish you have a good day.
To you as well
i also was curious about which gem phos was interested in and wanted to get closer. i thought it was cinnabar at first, checked reddit discussions and they were supporting my theory; but the gem shape doesn't really add up. thank you for your deep analysis video! it really helped me comprehend the chapter more in depth.
Interesting
I think it was antertacite y'know the gem we first saw at winter, sorry if I spell their name wrong
@@nezka8650 could be antarc, but i highly think it's cinnabar, i NEED them to have their own happy ending
@@aousquele if you think about it, antarc was probably the only one who didn't betray phos, in the manga
Cinnabar betrays phos to be with the other gems
@@nezka8650 honestly, could you really blame cinnabar?
spoilers///
a gem you've recently started interacting with says they're going to the moon because they're skeptical about sensei, whom raised you and teached you everything you learnt, your only parental figure/guardian. i genuinely think he would've still gone to the moon if phos simply worded his sentences better, or bortz didn't cut his words right before saying something to sensei about going with phos or not.
cinnabar cared, both of the gems were so broken and problematic that's what brought them together. you can still see cinnabar lurking on the moon because phos wasn't with everyone, and he felt bad because he didn't feel bad. there wasn't any reason for him to; phos fulfilled his promise, he earned cinnabar's trust up in the end. but what cinnabar wanted was to be with everyone, not with phos.
To be honest i do think Brongo(or I guess canonically Pitapat) was genuine when they found the seed and everything
But as Phos stated the Lunarian's most likely set him up so that he would technically "follow orders" and he kinda just embraced the role of having been puppeted by the Lunarians because in the end hes now in paradise and is ready to see Ayuma
Edit: also you did an awesome job analyzing the gem flowers cause I KNEW it was one of the gems but I thought I was Cinnabar's because of how it didnt break when Phos landed on it, but it really shows that Phos really did become stronger by the end
Yeah, definitely changes his character a bit, but i like that ichikawa did that
It’s so beautiful how it ended, and looking at the last panel I 100x believe your theory abt the gems on the spines because I saw a few of the same gems
Yeah I should make a diagram or something
This wasn't a mess, you did an amazing job. It was an honor to share this journey with you and every fan of this masterpiece of a manga
To you as well thank you for commenting
So this is a bit of information to give reference to the time scale of this series: The sun is estimated to turn into a red giant in approximately 5 billion years. God-Phos literally witnessed this event. If we're being EXTREMELY generous, it took 1 billion of those 5 to get from the extinction of humanity to the final prayer for humanity. So Phos was literally just vibing for 4,000,000,000 years. After the final evacuation we effectively lose all reference for time. The only hint is Pitapat (Kongo's brother) finally dying out. The thing lasted over 5 billion years as a mess of wires, a lot of it being awash in the ocean, with minimal damage. The only thing that could effectively kill them is likely the literal entropic decay of their vital atoms. We can't even guess how long that is, as they were likely made out of the same "adamantite" Kongo was; which was basically magic. Unless there was a external factor limiting them, Pitapat could have readily lived a few more billion years.
To give further reference: The current estimated age of the universe is ~13.78 billion years. Phos could very well have witnessed the universe double in age by the end. To get even crazier, there actually is some scientific basis of the spontaneous formation of the "perfect crystals" that is heavily implied to be the souls at peace. The "Big Crunch" is a hypothesis that claims the universe will eventually stop expanding and instead start collapsing under its own gravity. For the most part, this wouldn't do much; but after literal billions of years, the constant gravitational pressure would alter how atoms interact with each other. Towards the end of the crunch atoms would start to spontaneously react as if under extreme pressure, crystalizing much like a gem deep in the earth. If we're to take the ending as being scientifically literal, then it is the end of *hundreds of trillions* of years. Don't even try to comprehend that time scale. You can't. And yet, despite all that, Phos found their happiness.
It was fun following your analysis. It was a beautiful ending but I'm kinda sad it's over.
Yeah, a mixed bag of emotions
I watched the anime long ago and considered to read the manga someday. After hearing that the last issue for HnK will drop yesterday, I suddenly felt the urge to finish the manga in one day.
After going through this devastating masterpiece, I'll be honest, it'll take a lot of time for me to fill the deep void it left inside me.
I'm so happy I got to experience it with other fans line you. HnK has become something I'll remember even till my death.
Yes a great experience
This series really went over my head, so thank you for an analysis like this one. Between the sporadic schedule of the manga and my forgetfulness you get a recipe for disaster so something like this helps more than you know! Thank you and keep up the great work!
Of course! Thank you for commenting
HNK is seriously one of the most profound manga that I've had the pleasure to read, despite its delays. The impact it's left on me will most definitely stick with me for a very long time. It's conclusion was brilliant (although I had to re-read it a couple times to truly get it). Great video!
and of course it ends at chapter 108. The most important number in buddhism
Of course
I had a feeling Brongo died... rest in peace buddy.
Also I can't believe the translator made me read something in French...
oof, for some reason I didn’t think about it
i really relate to what phos went through as well. you mentioned you were born with a deformity, for me i was born an extremely sickly and small child. i was always treated like i was made of glass and i grew truly resentful of it and it eventually made me so stubborn and bitter. and just like phos i would always be trying to prove myself. it just makes me so emotional and happy that people can relate to phos in different ways due to their own life experiences. and we came out okay, happy, and accepting of ourselves despite our differences in comparison to most other people.....
I still remember back in March 2022 when I discovered the anime on prime after a dental surgery & watched it while on pain meds and promptly forgot about it until January 2023. I still genuinely wish i was half conscious watching it for the first time and could appreciate it sooner. This series has genuinely been one of the greatest things i’ve had the fortuity of seeing through, and i’ve tried indoctrinating all my friends to no avail. Still met some great people on pinterest through my meme account for the series. I’m probably yapping but god I’m so happy I got to even see this series. Thank you Ichikawa, may your ps5 brighten up your day.
(P.S - your videos are genuinely great like they do such a good job of analyzing. I have them on in the background while I study a lot thank you for making them 😭)
Thank you for your detailed comment
You made me feel like it´s worth telling stories to people ...even stories that are niche /somewhat not the mainstream.... because it can matter so much to someone, who is in a very unique life situation - and needs exactly that kind of unique niche character or story to relate to. I hope Ichikawa will get to know someday just in what ways her story touched others. Thank you for making the video and sharing so sincerely !!
I really loved your interpretation, it will really stuck with me for a long time, just as phos pieces will remain for eternity making other people happy!
Also something that i really love about the comet two page in chapter 108, is that it parallel the first chapter, when phos is asleep in the field and watches the sky when she gets awakened. For me personally it represents that the end of phos journey was finally achieved, her journey did not end when she burned the bridge. Also all the pain and sadness she went through led her to her finding her place and finally realizing that she didnt needed to fit in, she was ok since the start. But i'm just glad she can finally have her well-deserved rest
Its about finding your place in the universe and about the peace we can feel. We can learn to find joy in the scary world we live in and we can learn to form meaningful relationships.
The detail about the gem flower and the comet it’s something I missed and it makes this end even better
Sounds like this wasn't easy for you to go through.
Thanks for staying strong.
Doing good lol, just was. a little tired when recording
after realisng i needed to wait a very long time until the manga was finished, i put it down for about 4 years. Finally back and finishing it all in the span in 12 hours, this series has left me quite speechless and lost for words to describe it. Im glad you were here to help me understand what this whole series is, and it gave me insight into the tragedy and the eventual peace phos is able to find by the end of it. Its so sad that phos was the one characters, that even after all his efforts, suffered the most in the end, and wasnt really given closure to all their gems. However, he never really had those friends until these last chapters.
I hope i could learn a thing or two about this wonderful tale. Thank you Riza & Haruko Ichikawa
I put off reading this chapter for like 9 days because I didn't want it to be over.
when I read it two days ago. I did what I always do and listened to some music. the song the pop into my head was "If we hold on together" the end credit theme for The Land Before Time movie. and it went perfectly with the chapter. HnK is one of those well rare gems that only come around once and a while
The way I interpreted the final message was that no matter how hard life breaks you and changes your initial plans, there will always remain a small piece of you, deep inside, unaltered and which is able to become happy
Thanks so much for your video, such a great conclusion for a tremendous series that I've loved so much. I'll definitely enjoy watching your other videos on HnK!
Edit: I was only halfway through the video, but I'm happy to see that we share the same point of view ahah
Congrats on your own emotional journey. I’ve struggled with a lot of stuff emotionally for a while, and I’m just now starting to see the other side. I’m happy that you have the courage to tell others of your own hardships. That’s not easy, and I’m sure you know that.
I really appreciate the video! Im never been one to be good at picking up little messages and meanings or references. so having someone point these things out is super convenient. 😁
Thanks for the message at the end of the video. I'm going through a f*cked up season in my life and your words made me feel like there is, indeed, a chance for me to be happy after all the mess I'm living right now. Thank you very much
I just finished reading the manga and was pretty confused with the ending. I really appreciate your analysis and interpretation. I've cried so much but it felt so good and cathartic. Thank you so much! ♥♥♥
Life is suffering
Life happens wherever one is
One can be happy without being satisfied
So many messages to be found within this beautiful journey, both written and untold
This is a very well done video. This series, and especially this video, hit me at a time in my life when I need it the most. Thank you for all the things that you said in this video and for sharing your story
It is such an awkward situation, how everyone find very beautiful and positive meaning, while I end up with a “humanity was a mistake” morale in the end…
Buddhism despite being peaceful is very misanthropic since the goal of its beliefs is to die and never reincarnate again.
@@Zeon081 You do not NEED to reincarnate bc you have reached enlightens and can now benefit others as pure energy (a goal that is almost impossible to achieve and akin to Christian’s angels).
Then you learned nothing about what “mistake” means in this story. But then, you are on your own journey, one that evolution fought hard to create for it to have made such a mistake in your existence .
its kinda the point tho, humanity sucks, suffering sucks but hey! brongo saving the last piece phos as one last act of humanity’s kindness (or humanity’s remnants’ kindness how you see it) acts as a hope spot for us. we may not have a place in that perfect universe the rocks end up in but phos, as the last ember of what makes us HUMAN, gets a small seat. their purest form, the phos that smiles, the memory humanity would like to carry as the era of humans come to an end. good end imo
Thank you for sharing your personal perspective on HNK, it's truly resonating and I wish to reach out to give u a hug, because it was said both out of compassion but also out of wariness knowing that people may not agree. HNK is truly phenomenal, and although I am not as verbose with my feelings and thoughts on it, the impact and the deepness of meaning surely resonated with those of us that decided to stick with Phos' journey. I love this story very much, AND ALSO WAITING FOR FURTHER ANIMATION SEASONS RAGRH tho it's actually great that the HNK community continues posting stuff and it really shows the timelessness of this story
A little trivia, in buddhism they said that new buddha will appear in our human world every 10.000 years who will restore buddhism again (study to reach nirvana) when it's gone.
I find it interesting how the story took soo many buddhism reference through design and philosophy, but the main character were treated like jesus christ where he will take all of our suffering for our eternal salvation
I love your interpretation of this story.
I’m glad
I love this breakdown so much. I think you did an amazing job reading into everything and even doing your own translations! This is probably one of my top series of all time nd I’m glad phos finally gets the peace they deserve🤲🏽💎
This manga is in that gray area between a good ending and the dark, everybody dies and the main protagonist turns evil at the end. This results in that dissatisfaction. But imo that is why many like this ending. That disappointment where the ending is in the gray (for this universe's Phos) area gives the whole story its uniqueness.
Phos finally has gotten peace, but she definitely deserved better, it hits you in:
"The sensation described as a combination of unease, disquiet, and perhaps even a touch of existential discomfort. It's that feeling when a story resonates deeply within you, stirring up emotions and thoughts that challenge your perceptions or touch upon raw, unexplored aspects of human experience. This sensation can leave you feeling unsettled yet captivated, as if the story has peeled back a layer of reality to reveal something uncomfortably true. Some might call it the "uncomfortable truth" effect or the "chilling resonance" of a narrative."
-Chat GPT describing my thoughts better.
mhhh to me it was an obvious good ending? id say everybody died like how we all die at some point, that doesnt make it all bad , thats just how things happen and its inevetible... and we had the luck of having the inevitable come to terms in a manner that was beautiful, calm, comforting adn peaceful.
@@ceton1843whether you think the ending was sad or happy is completely personal. Personally I think it’s a morally gray ending with a hint of happiness (but the only reason it’s a happy ending is because humanity has been erased so some might see that as a good or bad thing). Me personally I see it as a good think hence why I say a hint of happiness
thank you so much for sharing your interpretation and feelings of the final chapter!
Of course
I'm gonna write a long ass comment, so don't mind me.
First and foremost I truly want to thank you, @RizaCreator, for your insides. It cleared a lot of things for me, as I just finished reading the manga a couple hours. But I can't say I am satisfied.
Don't misunderstand, I love the manga. It is right now the best story I have ever read, and I don't say that lightly. The way the characters have been written and the plot was set, has really really impressed me. I really respect everyone who has worked on this masterpiece. But it is just the morrality behind this story that I can't seem to accept. Even if Phos found peace in the end, how could her 'brothers' just stop caring about her like that. They just forgot about her while they lived their lives happily on the moon with the lunarians. Left her in pieces for 220 years or something and then when she invaded their home and 'freed' Sensei, they left her to rot alone on earth. Nobody cared about her. Even freaking Cinarol (forgot how to spell her name) didn't care for her. They all used her and left her, without any sense of guilt or sadness for what they had done to her. And even though the story sais that vengeance is the most human thing, phos didn't get do that in the end. She helped them instead, even though they mistreated, ignored and took everything she had done for them for granted. And yeah sure, Achmea tried to get phos also in 'paradise' with them, but that really isn't enough. At least I don't find it enough. Being at peace is the most imporant thing a humanbeing can attain, but phos didn't at all deserve to be called usseless for 300 years or something, and then get mistreated, used, abused and whatnot for more than 10.000 years in their schemes. Where did they get the audacity to do all of that, and still dare to ask Phos to free them. My blood has been boiling since she freed them. And even though I also read the last chapters with the stones and Pitapet, I couldn't feel anything but hatred against the other characters. Phos has been wronged on a level I could never imagine before finishing this manga. I don't know how or when I will get over this, but I already know that I won't get to peacefully sleep for a couple of nights. Maybe it is because I am a strong advocate for justice, or because I am a true believer of revenge, but I will most likely never find peace with this story. Ironic, right? Perhaps if someone had shone empathy for Phos, I could have accepted this outcome for 'the greater good', but that didn't happen. Even Antartic (also forgot how to spell her name) just needed a few words of Sensei, to disregard anything she felt for Phos. How cruel! How sick! And the craziest of it all is that it is so humanlike to use someone and then disgard them later on when they have fulfilled their 'purpose'.
But yeah, that's just how I feel. And even though I feel this way, I still find this to be the best written story among all, because of its relevance and its analyses to what it is to be human. I truly felt like I had been sacrificed for the greater good of others, while I was just sitting in the comfort of my home. The anime is beautiful and presented the manga really really well. The manga is also great, because even though it is black and white, you can still distinguish most characters, even though they look a lot like eachother. The words also touch you in a way that makes you truly live within the manga. It is just the cruel treatment of our main character that I can't seem to swallow, but that is a bit of a me-problem considering the other reviews I have read and heard online.
Well then, for those who read this, thank you for your time and feel free to agree or disagree with me.
😶🌫🥲
Yeah, your reaction is completely understandable. I don’t think you are alone in being angry at the other characters. I think their great cruelty is supposed to show the lack of humanity of the other characters have in contrast to Phos.
Thank you for your essay
I would recommend dolliipop's essay on forgiveness of phos that goes into it. It brought me to an understanding of why phos in the end forgave everyone
This is a very beautiful video, as is the series it's about, lowkey got me tearing up at parts 😭thank you for all your videos on these books and what you've shared its so awesome 😼
Absolute peak manga and Absolute peak vid😤🔥🔥
Thank you!
I wish we'd get a season 2 for the anime it's a piece of art (the manga and the anime)
Man it was so hard to see phos suffer for so long alone for gems who couldn’t care less about them.
But finally she can be happy🥹
I wish I was a pebble
Same
honestly I loved the ending of this sad rock manga, cause even without looking at the buddhist themes you can still find a good message. I saw the ending without knowing all of those themes, and took it as a message that with enough time you can look back at your pain and find a way to heal the parts of yourself that might have almost fully ground down by the experiences you've gone through. That's why the cover with god Phos leaning over their old child self is so touching to me, it's themself trying to make the past them feel better. Reconnecting with themself and healing from all the pain. Really a beautiful story.
I will come back to this manga as and old man and finally appreciate everything this manga helped me go through. I hope for those who have read this amazing peace of art happiness and will pray for that 🙏
I just.. its a mix feeling, its my favorite manga of all time, I love this so much, I feel lighter rigth now...
It’s definitely my favorite that’s ended
this story means so much to me as someone with a progressive disease that limits my mobility. i relate to phos a lot, I wish I could get better, I wish I could be stronger. it wasn't until recently ive felt comfortable with my disability, and with the manga wrapping up, it reallyyy impacted me. excellent analysis.
Do you think that the buddist flower concept + houseki’s version of it argues that everyone has their own pocket universe (like a: your perception is reality)? If Pho’s universe has its own flower, maybe all the other rock characters have their own flower universe?
I think the reader is urged to feel something akin to sonder (the awe of realizing that everyone has their own super complex life, perceptions, and experiences).
Yeah, I believe that’s the interpretation Ichikawa is going for
Thank you for your comment
i never and i mean NEVER cry at movies, tv shows, books, mangas, ANYTHING. HNK is one of those rare instances where in the end I just started crying. Also unrelated but I love how you have such a deep reason as to why phos is your favorite character and my only reasoning for padpa being my favorite is that they look cool 😭
Well done. Over on r/manga, I expressed my confusion about this ending, and hoped someone would explain it to me. You did.
Maybe this might not be an "official" explanation, but it sounds plenty convincing to me. Thank you.
I too feel lighter, play well phos
Agreed
I, more or less, came to similar conclusions about life and happiness while reading HnK, and I'm so glad I did. I can only speak for my circumstances, but I had been unhappy for so long despite living a pretty good life. Trying so hard to conform and fit in. Reading the story somehow resonated, and I can honestly say I'm in such a better place right now. I didn't know it was possible to be happy.
Thank you for breaking down the flowers as universes/souls! I did not quite get that on first read
amazing video; im upset i only find out about your channel after the series has ended. thank you for all the work you've done on this series
I’m gonna go on ao3 to read the journey of new era phos, cause I’m not over this masterpiece and I am so happy for phos.
the thematic beauty that you just described is spectacular, though I kind of got lost on the 'individual universes' part
Universes like individual souls of all the characters in the flowers
Hope that helps
I think its their specific lives
Well we made it to the end
Woo hoo!
4:18 in the official translations i'm pretty sure it's "pitapat", his name is not "bubu" lol (by the logic of his "actual name" that means the lunarians official names are just "moon people", it can mean the same thing and not be the same word")
other then that awesome video
I understand lol, the original Japanese is different though. I may wait for the official translation, before I stop calling him brongo.
2:50 was it this planet? In the last chapter Pitapat gave a weird (I guess throw-off line now) that they shot past the actual targeted planet and landed on the Paradise Planet which is still close by (hopefully) in the same solar system.
Weather it was the Lunarians intention or not for this specific planet, I think it was their intention to send them to this place. Perhaps their math was off and he landed correctly.
the amount of stuff phos had to go through omg
19:41, I'd rather think that instead of this being a new beginning, a new loop, it's more like Phos doing a retrospect of their own life, seeing every single step of their past, and giving it a cheer, saying to herself that it would and was ok, being literally a shining beacon of hope for herself, bc if it where to be a new beginning, and Phos decided not to choose any of the choices she made, and Aechmea's plan fail, that would be the worst end for the series, every single choice was the worst choice made, yes, but the end of it all, the ultimate goal, was good, was the best one possible, it was a harsh and unforgiving life, but it ended in true happiness, and that's why me personally don't like the idea of a do over
Also no, the flower gem being the same as the cover one is a STRETCH

Phos began and ended the series jobless, but with an entirely different outlook.
I wonder if they would make another manga about phos's new life but this one is just him
And his new friends going on adventures and having fun
It's not PhosOver It's PhosphoFree
The comet is shaped like God Phos in the sky of Phos’ world 😭😭
Man It's been a decade since this manga shows goodbye Phosphophyllite rest in peace dear gem we love you. im gonna miss you Houseki No Kuni or land of the lustrous thank you for everything 💎😭💎😭💎😭
I just saw it initially as gems can finally be happy gems free from physical human form and influence, but this is cool interpretation.
20:37 how you do that? Like the lines how you get the right line and weight and thickness?
This manga was literally the definition of arigata meiwaku
♥️ ♥️ ♥️ this was beautiful
Thank you!
I was born from my strict parents and my father was abusive and selfish who does not properly discipline a kid, I often remember bullying other students in my elementary days because they don't understand me or maybe I was different from them. Everytime I get poor grades at that time my father treated me horribly for not putting that effort simply because i was lazy at that time and also jealous at their stuff which I did steal them (except for the pokemon book which i returned it to my classmate) after getting caught by my mom for stealing it from her bag. And also a game addict when my dad gave me a gameboy (the square one not the original) which it distracts me from my school work resulting to my poor grades.
brongo is literally goated like i love him sm

5:11 BUBU..???? My heart… ❤🔥❤🔥😭😭
This series has been a long and lovely story
I hope the ex friend I have, who loves Houseki no Kuni, because they relate to Phos. Reads the Manga and sees the ending
One of the things I sympathize with them for, is their... not low self esteem really, but their lack of settled self I guess?
I've lost a lot in my life; homes, pets, belongings, photographs. I've been "reborn", so many times
That right now. I'm content to just be.
But then I look at them, and they've internalized Phos' self er. Hated? Sense of uselessness?
To the point where they've definitely ended friendships (including mine) over things that are relatively simple and honestly things that don't matter?
So for me. I hope they can see the ending, and realize that the suffering isn't about being a useless "loser", or "bad friend".
It's just that life punches you in multiple different ways, and at the end of a rough journey. You've changed, but changed in a way. Where, at least in my case
You're no longer afraid. Of people, things and situations
I'm more willing to ask for help, than I was 10 years ago. 10 years ago me, was someone who did not see the light
But I do now.
And I hope my ex friend can see the light, and change their negative and pessimistic mindset
Yeah, I get that
