Two rock-based life forms, is this a metaphor to Adam and Eva? What's the deal with the song? And it seems like Phos starts melting or collapsing.
I really need some explanations and analyses.

Wonder if phos will become earth and that's it. Or will they become rock again? Fresh start? I'm kinda scared... I hope it's more than that though.

yeah phos just collapsed after hearing those words, idk what to expect right now
its so cool to see new life forms, loved the subtle interactions 

apparently the rock friend always listens to music from life forms? in the last chapter they said the white dwarf was singing too

i love this manga so much please ichikawa no hiatus anymore

the song sounded a lot like starry night, holy night depending on which translation you read. the entire chapter itself was mind-boggling, not that it's bad!!

That song was a requiem for the Gems, the rock lifeform's perspective of the events that occurred all that time ago. Also, it's interesting how the passage of time has become completely meaningless, with multiple seasons passing being portrayed in just a few panels that feel like minutes to Phos.

Okay... something happened I guess.

Waited for months and then a chapter came out, and they ended it again the usual way for Phos. Don't know where we're heading.

I've genuinely enjoyed this chapter, but I feel that if I hadn't read this one and 99 in a row it would have felt like shit because of the serialization
I feel like the introduction of these rocks is lovely, like Phos is finding true friends that see them as equals no matter appearance or abilities
maybe phos turns back to their original form or something idk it would be nice

Ichikawa you wonderful madwoman, you celebrated the 100th chapter in the best way possible. Rocks singing, dancing and writing songs, utter brilliant. Jokes aside I do think this was a great chapter and makes me happy to see that for chapter 100 we got something more uplifting and peaceful( even though this atmosphere will be likely destroyed in the near future, at least that’s what I expect coming from this series)

ichikawas hard work finally lead up to this exact moment, to write the manga she truly wanted to write: literal rocks being cute
a geode slice of life.

yeah it's definitely not worth the payoff of waiting. dunno how manga scheduling works but i imagine something can be done where she can finish writing everything she needs to, and then have the chapters publish as normal instead of these random breaks.

Wait a sec, it seems these rocks are meteorites but the gems were part of humanity, where are these coming from?

Sometimes less is more. Phos interacting with the rocks makes me happy.
