The pattern of Houseki no Kuni for most of its run has been light hearted slice of life followed by something deeply traumatic involving the Lunarians that manages to up the ante each time.
their reaction is just so good pft Cinnabar still doesn’t get to do much but…hey, look how pretty they are. Instead, Phos ends up helping Lucile collect various stray gem fragments to help resurrect Padparadscha, Lucile’s former partner who – although apparently knowing just about everything – has been dormant for over a hundred years. To find out the truth, Phos decides that they’d best ask a Lunarian directly, because Sensei has a habit of falling asleep whenever one wants to ask a pressing question (although….surely it would be easier to ask him than a Lunarian) …unfortunately the Lunarains never seem to come when one actually wants them to.
They realize that something very strange is going on that Sensei hasn’t told them – concerning the Lunarians relationship with him. He seems to know it quite well – even calling it by name (Shiro), and although he and the other gems have a peaceful moment with it, Phos is confused and somewhat angry at this. When the dogs are all gathered together, they turn back into the big Lunarian…but, unexpectedly, Sensei himself shows up and gets showered with affection by it. The gems all have a field day trying to collect them all – especially because they’re so cute and fluffy. Which is exactly what happens, and the Lunarian is obliterated into 108 fluffy dog-like creatures which promptly scatter across the island. Although Alexandrite is obsessed with Lunarians, they have apparently been told by sensei to never actually look directly at them – this causes them to change into their overpowered ‘red’ form and go berserk for a while before blacking out. They end up receiving help from an unlikely source…Alexandrite. It’s kinda sad that this is actually an early review by my standardsīort and Phos are facing off against the strange beast-like Lunarian after Diamond is incapacitated, but they quickly discover that the thing is harder to defeat than expected – because every time they slice it apart, each part turns into a new, smaller one.
