  • Houseki no kuni (宝石の国 Hōseki no Kuni?, lit. Tierra de joyas), llamado Land of the Lustrous en inglés, es una serie de manga escrita y dibujada por Haruko Ichikawa, publicada por Kōdansha en la revista Afternoon desde 2012 hasta la fecha, recopilando 10 volúmenes. Su adaptación al anime fue dirigida y escrita por Takahiko Kyogoku y Toshiya Ono respectivamente, y comenzó a emitirse el 7 de octubre del 2017 culminando el 23 de diciembre del mismo año con 12 episodios. Producida por Computación gráfica (CG) del estudio de animación Orange. Sigue a las Houseki (Gemas) – formas de vida humanoide inmortales hechas de gemas preciosas – quienes se defienden contra los Lunarians, unos seres que las cazan para hacer con las gemas decoraciones. Phos es la más joven de las Housekis, y se le encarga el trabajo de hacer una enciclopedia ya que es muy frágil para luchar. Orange creó la serie con una animación 3D, la decisión fue hecha parcialmente por la dificultad que representaba mostrar una animación de cuerpos semitransparentes con dibujo a mano [1] [2]. El concepto artístico de Yoichi Nishikawa tuvo una gran influencia en la visión de la seria, con varias imágenes directamente basadas en el arte de Nishikawa [3]. Mientras que el manga pretende ser más ambiguo y sutil, el anime tiene que ser claro en una sola visualización, y por lo tanto se le da a Phos tomas de primer plano y diálogos repetidos para que reciba mayor presencia y metas más identificables. Kyogoku acostumbrado a relatar personajes jóvenes con motivos y objetivos claros, inicialmente tuvo problemas para retratar a Phos, pero la imagen del personaje se solidificó al escuchar la actuación de Tomoyo Kurosawa para esta. La serie fue bien recibida por las críticas, frecuentemente llamada como de las mejor de su temporada y un punto de inflexión para el anime hecho en CG, y convenciendo de que una seria de acción fuera del diseño en 2D podría estar bien hecha. Recibió varios premios y nominaciones para premios. (es)
  • Land of the Lustrous (Japanese: 宝石の国, Hepburn: Hōseki no Kuni, lit. "Country of Jewels") is a 2017 anime television series based on Haruko Ichikawa's manga series of the same name.

Phosphophyllite is the youngest of the Lustrous, and is given the task to assemble a natural history since they are too brittle to fight. Orange created the series with 3D animation as a base, a decision made partially due to the difficulty in depicting translucent gemstones using hand-drawn animation. Yoichi Nishikawa's concept art greatly influenced Kyōgoku's vision for the series, with several shots directly based on Nishikawa's art. While the manga is more ambiguous and subtle, the anime had to be clear on a single viewing, so Phos was given more close-up shots and repeated lines to give them a larger presence and more easily identifiable goals. As Kyōgoku was used to writing teenaged characters with clear motives and desires, he initially had problems with portraying Phos, but his image of the character solidified after hearing Tomoyo Kurosawa's performance as them. The series was well-received by critics, frequently called among the best of the 2010s and a turning point for CG anime, and convincing skeptics that an action series could be well done outside of a 2D production. The writing was also positively received, with critics calling the characters and world likable and intriguing. It received several awards and nominations, namely for its visuals. (en)

  • While conversing with the slug, who is revealed to be an Admirabilis named Ventricosus, Phos hears more about Cinnabar from Kongō. Hearing from Ventricosus that there is someone like them in their homeland, Phos decides to go under the sea, where Ventricosus transforms into a humanoid form. Ventricosus explains how humans once roamed the planet before evolving into three separate species representing flesh, bone, and soul: the Admirabilis, the Lustrous, and the Lunarians. Upon reaching their destination, Phos discovers that they had been led into a trap by Ventricosus, who wishes to give Phos to the Lunarians in exchange for her captured brother, Aculeatus. (en)
  • Phos is still tormented by the loss of Antarcticite as they spend the rest of the winter mastering the gold alloy running through their body. As spring arrives and the other Lustrous awaken from hibernation, Phos, who appears to be forgetting about Cinnabar, becomes the center of attention due to their gold arms, particular as they take down a group of Lunarians single-handedly. (en)
  • Following another Lunarian battle, Yellow Diamond discovers that Phos is having trouble controlling their new legs. Theorizing that this speed is allegedly the result of Phos's hidden potential finally being unleashed, Kongō assigns Phos to join the twins Amethyst 84 and 33 on lookout duty, while also becoming perturbed when Phos vaguely recollects something concerning humans. While the first two days of lookout duty prove to be mentally exhausting, Lunarians appear on the third day, bringing with them a new type of Lunarian that ensnares the Amethysts and shatters them. As Kongō and the others arrive to defeat the Lunarians, Phos is confronted by Bort over what happened. (en)
  • With Antarcticite unable to find Phos's missing arms, Kongō instructs them to go to the Chord Shore where Lustrous are born for replacement material. Phos is given a gold arm as an intended temporary replacement, but it starts to grow out of control and engulfs them just as more Lunarians appear. With Kongō held up by another group of Lunarians, Antarcticite is forced to fight alone against a rare Lunarian, only to be shattered by a surprise attack when their guard is dropped. Wanting to save them, Phos manages to will the gold to change shape and wield it as a weapon, but is ultimately unable to stop the Lunarians from escaping with Antarcticite. (en)
  • Despite having captured Phos, the Lunarians demand more Lustrous from Ventricosus, but Aculeatus manages to break free and beat the Lunarians. Aculeatus proposes that they use Phos for negotiations with the Lunarians, but Ventricosus convinces him to return Phos to the others. With their legs lost in the battle, along with some of their memories, Phos receives new legs made from agate shards that Ventricosus left with them. Despite losing their job writing the encyclopedia, Phos discovers that their new legs allow them to run at high speeds. (en)
  • Detecting Phos inside the snail, Diamond finds a weak point in its shell, allowing Bort to defeat it. Discovering that Phos supposedly has transformed into a small slug creature, Diamond tries to find a way to turn them back to normal, but finds little help from the other Lustrous. They come across Cinnabar, who states that the slug is not actually Phos, but nonetheless gives Diamond a vital clue in saving Phos. Managing to gather up pieces of Phos that were left behind in the snail's shell, the Lustrous rebuild Phos, who now is able to understand what the slug is saying. (en)
  • Asked about how to talk to the Lunarians, Padparadscha gives Phos cryptic advice before falling into slumber again. The next day, Bort tests Zircon as their next partner while Phos learns more about Lunarians from Alexandrite, who holds their own agenda against them. When Lunarians appear, Phos attempts to interrogate one of them, but is unable to get anything useful out of it before Cinnabar shows up to destroy them. Remembering their promise to find Cinnabar a new job, Phos asks for their help in finding out the truth concerning Kongō and the Lunarians. (en)
  • The Lustrous discover that every time they slice through the Lunarians, it splits into increasingly smaller clones of itself, eventually winding up in tiny dog-like form. After almost all the smaller pieces are found and caged, the Lunarian reforms into its original size but is tamed by Kongō, who refers to it as "Shiro". As Phos ponders about the relationship between Kongo and Shiro, Cinnabar, who had come across Shiro's final piece, reveals that the others are aware that Kongō has an apparent relationship with the Lunarians that Kongō is keeping secret, but they still follow Kongō regardless. After Shiro regains all its pieces and disappears after finding peace, Phos helps Rutile find ruby fragments to successfully restore Padparadscha, a Lustrous who has laid dormant due to the holes they were born with. (en)
  • While the other Lustrous undergo winter hibernation, Phos is unable to sleep and joins up with Antarcticite, who serves as the only Lustrous on duty during the winter. As the two cut down ice floes to keep the noise down, Phos hears voices coming from one of the floes, which lures Phos into the water and bites off their arms. (en)
  • Intrigued by Phos's new fighting ability, Bort asks them to become their partner in place of Diamond while Kongō is asleep. The next day, another new type of giant Lunarian appears, proving resilient to Bort and Phos's attacks. As Phos and Bort retreat and order the other Lustrous to hold their position, the Lunarian makes its way inside the school and starts chasing after Diamond. Feeling that they cannot rely on Bort to protect them, Diamond goes up against the Lunarian, using their diamond limbs to slice it. As Bort comes to Diamond's aid, they discover that the Lunarian has now split into two separate Lunarians. (en)
  • Phos approaches Diamond for advice on what to add to the encyclopedia when another group of Lunarians appear. Diamond's sword is knocked away while trying to deflect the Lunarians' attack, but they are saved by another diamond-class Lustrous, Bort, who Diamond laments they can not surpass. As Bort scolds Diamond for putting themselves at risk, another Lunarian heads towards the school while Kongō is deep in meditation. Diamond follows Bort as they fight the Lunarians, and Phos is swallowed by a large snail creature, whose acidic form starts to melt away Phos's body. (en)
